Common Modifications

Grab Bars and Handrails: Adding sturdy grab bars and handrails in key areas such as bathrooms, hallways, and staircases to prevent falls and provide support.
Bathroom Modifications: Adapting bathrooms with walk-in showers, shower seats, handheld showerheads, and non-slip flooring for increased safety and accessibility.
Kitchen Adaptations: Lowering countertops, installing pull-out shelves, and ensuring accessible storage to enable easier meal preparation and cooking.
Door Widening: Widening doorways to accommodate wheelchairs or mobility aids, ensuring unhindered movement throughout the home.
