What is an adaptable home renovation?

An adaptable home renovation is a type of renovation designed to adapt your home to your needs, as opposed to you adapting to your home. Adaptive home renovation make a home more flexible and capable of adjusting to the changing needs of its occupants over time. This can include features that enhance accessibility, improve safety, and allow for easier modifications as circumstances evolve, such as aging in place or accommodating different family dynamics.

For example, an adaptable home renovation might include:

• Wider doorways for wheelchair access
• No-step entries or ramps
• Walk-in showers and grab bars in bathrooms
• Adjustable countertops in kitchens
• Smart home technologies for remote control of lighting, temperature, and security

These renovations are typically planned with the future in mind, ensuring that homeowners can enjoy their homes comfortably as their needs change without requiring major future renovations.
