Floor Plans for Senior Care Remodeling

  • Expanding narrow halls and doorways to make them wheelchair accessible for seniors can be vital for aging-in-place remodels

  • One-floor living is a must for today's retirees. We can help you fix up your home to age in place in comfort without having to use the stairs

Remodeling Outside for Aging-in-Place

  • Siding replacement and upgrades can end the work of painting, climbing ladders and more
  • Fixing your deck or patio can improve safety, and deck remodeling such as new ramps and wider access can make it easier to get around
  • Landscaping changes such as planting shrubbery and plants that are simple to preserve reduce the need for yard work and water

Bathroom Remodeling for Retired Life

Upgrading and expanding small bathrooms can help you age in place by:

  • Adding grip bars for stability
  • Replacing faucets
  • Adding turnaround space
  • Installing a fold-down bench in the shower stall
  • Adding overhead lighting in the shower stall for better visibility
  • Installing grab bars around the tub and toilet to prevent dangerous falls
  • Raising toilet seats
  • Separate spaces for caregivers

Accessory Details to Make Life at Home Nicer

  • Installation of non-slip hard floors and replacement of impractical carpet with new carpet of 1.5-inch pile can make wheelchair access simple
  • Minor changes like doorknob replacement with levers and easy open windows and blinds, thermostats moved lower on the wall, light switches near doors, and installation of emergency 911 switches can make retiring at home independently more convenient

Front Doors and Ramps for Retirees

  • Installing non-slip flooring can improve everyday welfare
  • Added automatic lighting, flattened thresholds and garage additions make living at home in retirement easier
  • Wheelchair accessibility ramps to exterior doors and in garages can make it easier for aging adults to come and go

Updating a bedroom for yourself so caregivers can be with you while you age in place can be he best option. Ask about remodeling a single bathroom or installation of an electric chair lift to make this possible.
