Remodeling Your Home to Facilitate the Aging-in-place Lifestyle
Would you like to turn your home into the perfect place to enjoy your post-retirement years? Homes in the Seattle area are skyrocketing in price, so many retired homeowners are making changes to their existing homes rather than going through the burden of finding a new home and moving.
Remodeling all or part of your home starts with an inspired vision, and making it reality requires an experienced remodeling team who can bring your ideas to life.
ER Properties – Remodeling a Home to Make Life More Enjoyable
There comes a time in life when the kids are grown and you can retire in comfort. For many people living in Western Washington, this is a time to downsize or look for a home with more creature comforts to help make life more enjoyable. However, if you like your neighborhood and don’t want to go through the hassle of moving, we can help you make changes to your home that help you get the most out of life.
You deserve a home that allows you to live safely, independently, and comfortably, regardless of your age or ability level. If you have special needs, we have the expertise and experience required to build ADA (American Disabilities Act) compliant features anywhere inside or outside your home.
Your aging-in-place remodel design will benefit from our extensive experience. It will also save you money, as we are a small, family-owned business that puts our customers and their needs first.
Design and Construction – the Art of Remodeling to Enhance Your Quality of Life
For us to design and remodel your home, it’s necessary to understand your lifestyle. To streamline this process, we developed our TruER Design Process which is a proven way to ensure the final product meets your expectations.
Every living space in your home should be an extension of your preferred lifestyle, especially if you have unique daily challenges that must be overcome. Design and construction must work in tandem to create living spaces that are both functional and aesthetically pleasing. We must also work within your budgetary constraints as we make choices that affect the bottom line.
Aging-in-place Features You May Want to Consider
If you have a concept for any living space within your home, we can figure out a way to make it a reality. Rooms that often are in need of remodeling to accommodate a mature lifestyle are often the most heavily trafficked, like the bathroom and kitchen. Some of the more common aging-in-place features we encounter include:
- Elevator installation
- Elevator shaft building
- Tenant improvements
- Additions
- Railings
- Doors
- Chair lifts
- Shower stalls and tubs
- Heating systems
- Ramps
Understanding your daily routine will help us seamlessly incorporate these features into the natural design of your home. Your safety, comfort, and overall happiness is our greatest concern, which is why we work directly with you to fully develop every idea before remodeling begins.
We Work Hard to Minimize the Impact on Your Life
Obviously, remodeling any room in your home can be an inconvenience. Preparation is the key to minimizing the impact on your life, and we will work with you to develop a timeline and daily routine that acknowledges your personal needs and privacy.
On some jobs, we’ve even set up a fully-working temporary kitchen in the client’s garage so they could enjoy their morning coffee while the kitchen we being remodeled. We can also schedule working hours at times when they least impact your daily routine.
