Walkways & Ramps
Maintaining your lifestyle requires being able to enter and exit your house with ease.
With a vast range of materials, we can construct permanent or temporary ramps that are tailored to your preferences.
Kitchen & Bathrooms
There are many things to consider when making your kitchen more accessible. From different appliances to countertops, all of which must be adjusted for ease of use.
Most accidents happen in the bathroom over any other room in the house, especially for people with disabilities. So making your bathroom more accessible is a MUST. Some things we can do is installing grab bars and roll-in showers, as well as non-slip surfaces and chair accessible toilets.
