Small Stuff Matters in Retirement Remodels
- Installation of non-slippery hard floors and replacement of impractical rugs with new carpet of 1.5-inch pile can make wheelchair access simple
- Minor upgrades such as doorknob replacement with levers and easier-to-operate windows, thermostats moved to easier-to-reach places, switches and outlets near entryways, and installation of security systems can make retiring at home more convenient
Doors and Ramps for Retirees
- Installation of non-slip flooring can improve everyday welfare
- Motion lighting, unraised doorways and garage additions make senior life easier
- Wheelchair accessibility ramps to front doors, back doors and in garages can make coming and going less stressful for retirees
Adapting just one room for you to stay in so your family can be with you while you live in retirement can be perfect. Ask about remodeling a single bathroom or the addition of an electric chair lift to make this possible.
