Getting in and out of your home shouldn't be a daily struggle. Our wheelchair ramp installation service creates safe, code-compliant entryways for individuals who use mobility devices. We assess your home's layout, ground conditions, and your specific chair or scooter to design a ramp that fits seamlessly—whether temporary aluminum or permanent wood construction. Our Centennial team handles permits, site prep, and even landscaping touch-ups so the ramp looks natural. Many clients are veterans, s...

Bathrooms are the most dangerous room in a home for people with mobility challenges. Our bathroom modification service turns hazardous spaces into spa-like, safe havens. We install roll-in showers with zero thresholds, grab bars anchored to wall studs, raised toilets with safety frames, and non-slip flooring. For those who need a caregiver's assistance, we widen doorways to fit wheelchairs and reposition sinks for side transfer. Our Centennial team also offers accessible vanities with knee space...

Narrow doorways, tight hallways, and stepped floor plans can turn a house into a maze. Our interior accessibility service focuses on creating smooth, continuous paths of travel throughout your home. We widen doorways to 36 inches for wheelchair and walker clearance, replace standard hinges with offset ones for extra inches, and install swing-clear hinges that maximize openings. For multi-level homes, we assess the feasibility of residential elevators, stairlifts, or platform lifts—and coordinate...

Our home accessibility modifications are designed around how you actually live day to day. We start by listening to your challenges, routines, and goals, then recommend changes that make each room safer and easier to use. That can mean roll-in showers, reinforced flooring, widened doorways, or smart-home adaptations. Our volunteers and partner professionals carry out the work with care and technical skill. Because we are a nonprofit, qualified recipients receive these services at no cost, thanks...

A wheelchair ramp can turn a daily struggle at the front door into a safe, independent routine. We assess your entryway, ground conditions, and your specific mobility device before designing a ramp that fits. Depending on your needs, we build with temporary aluminum or permanent wood, and our team handles permits, site preparation, and landscaping touch-ups so the ramp blends in. We also offer porch lifts and threshold wedges for smaller steps. The process begins with a free in-home evaluation,...

Grab bars are one of the simplest ways to make a bathroom safer, but they only work when they are mounted correctly. We anchor each bar directly into wall studs, placing it where you will reach for it most, whether beside the toilet, in the shower, or along the tub. We can also add safety frames, shower chairs, and lever handles that complement the bars. Our approach is tailored to your routine, and we can coordinate with occupational therapists when that helps. Our work is provided at no cost t...

Remodeling for accessibility means rethinking a home so it works for the person living in it. Our projects range from a single adjustment to a more complete reconfiguration of rooms. We may lower counters, add pull-down shelving, adjust closet layouts, or install lever-style hardware that is easier to grip. Each plan begins with a conversation about your challenges and priorities, followed by a practical design. Our volunteers and partners carry out the work, and because we operate as a nonprofi...

A roll-in shower removes the step that makes bathing hazardous for many people who use wheelchairs or walkers. We build a zero-threshold entry, sloped floor for drainage, and non-slip surfaces, then add the supports and fixtures that make the space comfortable. Hand-held wands and temperature-control valves help prevent scalding and make bathing easier. We adapt the layout to the size of your bathroom and to how you transfer, sometimes working alongside occupational therapists. Qualified recipie...

Finding a contractor who understands accessibility matters, because small details decide whether a home is truly usable. We are a nonprofit team that focuses on modifications for people living with disabilities, and every project starts with an assessment of your home and your daily needs. We handle the planning, coordinate with trusted vendors when specialized equipment is needed, and perform the construction ourselves with licensed volunteers and partners. Our services are provided at no cost...

Renovating for accessibility is about more than meeting a checklist. It is about creating a home where moving from room to room takes less effort and more confidence. Our renovation work can include widened doorways, smoother paths of travel, accessible kitchens, and bathrooms built around your needs. We begin by understanding how you move through your home, then develop a plan that fits your space and budget of time and comfort. Our volunteers and partners carry out the renovation, and eligible...

Narrow doorways can block wheelchairs and walkers from entering rooms you use every day. We widen doorways to provide the clearance needed for safe passage, typically to around 36 inches. Depending on the doorway, we may swap standard hinges for offset or swing-clear hinges that open the width further, and we can adjust trim and surrounding framing as needed. Door widening is often a quick change with a lasting impact on how freely you can move. Our nonprofit provides this work at no cost to qua...
