Handyman Services for Seniors: Promoting Home Safety & Accessibility

In the golden years of life, safety and comfort at home become paramount. Home is your sanctuary, your safe space, and it should be tailored to meet your unique needs. However, aging often brings about physical challenges that can turn simple household tasks into daunting undertakings. That's where professional handyman services step in. 


At Care & Company, we are deeply committed to enhancing the quality of life for our clients, offering specialized Handyman Services designed specifically for seniors. Our focus? Promoting safety and ensuring accessibility within the home. It's all about empowering you to live independently, securely, and joyfully in your beloved home, for many more golden years to come.


Home Safety: A Top Priority for Seniors


Aging has its inevitable challenges, some of which may complicate ordinary activities and make navigating the home a potentially dangerous task. According to the Canadian Institute for Health Information, over 1 in 3 (35%) seniors in Canada report a fall each year, majorly due to home hazards. This underlines the urgent need for proactive measures to ensure home safety.


At Care & Company, we understand the implications of these challenges and are committed to providing solutions that safeguard the well-being of our clients. Our handyman services make it simple and convenient to enhance home safety with essential upgrades such as assist rail installations, entry ramps, arthritis-friendly door handles, and other senior-friendly modifications.


Enhancing Accessibility for Comfortable Living


As we age, even simple tasks like opening a heavy door or climbing a staircase can become strenuous. That's why enhancing home accessibility is fundamental to promoting quality of life for seniors. Our experienced handymen are skilled in making necessary modifications that allow seniors to move around their homes with ease. From widening doorways for wheelchair access to installing easy-to-use hardware, we prioritize your comfort and independence.


For seniors coping with vision loss, our handyman services can introduce improved lighting solutions to reduce strain and make the home environment safer. We also recognize the increasing role of technology in supporting independent living, which is why we offer services such as video doorbell monitoring installations.


A Trusted and Compassionate Service


At Care & Company, we appreciate that inviting a service professional into your home requires trust. That's why our handyman partners are not only vetted professionals delivering top-tier service, but also individuals who respect the unique needs, desires, and concerns of our senior clients. We ensure that all our services, including our handyman services, are rendered with mindfulness toward engaging with our clients for an all-around positive and beneficial experience.
