Common Accessibility Questions

What is project timing in construction?
Project timelines vary based on the scope of work:
  • Simple projects (grab bars, minor repairs): 2-4 weeks
  • Small renovations: 1-3 months
  • Basements: 2-3 months
  • ADUs (Accessory Dwelling Units): 4-5 months
  • New home builds: 12-14 months
The exact timeline depends on the materials needed and the complexity of the work. We'll provide you with a specific timeline once we understand your project.
What do you charge for renovations?
Renovation costs typically range from $5,000 to $350,000, depending on the size and complexity of your project. Our pricing is based on materials, labor, and the scope of work required. We'll provide you with a detailed estimate after discussing your specific needs and goals.
Do I need a permit for my construction project? How are permits obtained?
We handle all permitting for you—no need to worry about the paperwork. Whether you need a permit depends on your local building department and the type of work being done.

Generally:
  • Permit NOT required: Simple updates, such as installing grab bars or widening doorways
  • Permit required: Kitchens, bathrooms, basements, additions, ADUs, and any work involving structural changes, electrical, or plumbing modifications
Permit costs vary by location and project complexity—some municipalities charge a flat fee while others charge a percentage of the project cost.
What is 'aging in place'?
Aging in place means making modifications to your home so you can live there safely and comfortably as you get older, without needing to move to assisted living or a care facility. This might include adding grab bars, widening doorways, installing walk-in showers, or improving accessibility throughout your home.
What is multigenerational living?
Multigenerational living is when multiple generations of a family (such as grandparents, parents, and children) live together under one roof. Home modifications like adding ADUs, creating separate living spaces, or improving accessibility can make this arrangement comfortable and functional for everyone.
What is an ADU?
An ADU (Accessory Dwelling Unit) is a smaller, independent living space on your property—sometimes called a "granny flat," "in-law suite," or "backyard cottage." ADUs have their own entrance, kitchen, bathroom, and living area, making them perfect for extended family, guests, or even rental income.
Why is home modification a good investment?
Home modifications offer several valuable benefits:
  • Stay in your home longer with improved safety and accessibility
  • Increase your home's value with functional upgrades
  • Accommodate family needs as they change over time
  • Avoid moving costs and the stress of relocating
  • Generate income through rental potential (like ADUs)
Modifications help your home work for you now and adapt to your future needs.
