The people at Endeavour Builders believe that being 65 years or older shouldn’t mean giving up your independence, your quality of life, or the home you love. That’s why we are excited to be part of the movement that helps seniors “age in place.”

WHAT IS AGING IN PLACE?

Aging in place simply means securing necessary support services in response to changing personal needs and allowing an individual to remain in their present residence.

    * Ensuring there’s ample maneuvering space

    * Varying the height of countertops

    * Installing a sink with knee clearance

    * Installing a raised dishwasher

    * Lowering cooking surfaces

    * Mounting a wall oven or microwave at reachable heights

    * Making sure there’s an abundance of storage space    within reach

    * Providing a desk/work area with knee clearance
