CAPS-informed modifications for Fayette County homes
Aging-in-place isn't just grab bars. We approach Lexington projects with Certified Aging-in-Place Specialist principles — evaluating circulation paths, lighting, floor surfaces, bathroom access, and kitchen ergonomics as an integrated system, not a checklist of individual installs.
Zero-threshold showers and barrier-free entries
The number one modification request from Lexington homeowners over 65 is the walk-in shower conversion. We build zero-threshold, curbless showers with integrated seats, hand-held fixtures, and non-slip surfaces — designed to look like a modern bathroom, not a medical facility.
Wider doorways without losing structural integrity
Widening doorways in older Lexington homes means understanding what's load-bearing and what's not. We re-frame openings to 36" minimum clear width while maintaining structural support — permits included, inspections passed, no shortcuts.
Stairlift prep and first-floor bedroom conversions
If the long-term plan is to stay in a two-story Lexington home, we can prep the stairway for a future stairlift installation and convert a first-floor room into a full bedroom suite with accessible bathroom — done right the first time so you don't remodel twice.
Funded through insurance, VA, or Acorn Finance
Many aging-in-place modifications in Lexington qualify for VA Specially Adapted Housing grants, long-term care insurance coverage, or our Acorn Finance payment plans. We help identify which funding path applies to your project.

FAQ

Lexington Aging-in-Place Modifications — Common Questions

How much do aging-in-place modifications cost in Lexington, KY?

Aging-in-place costs in Lexington depend on scope. Grab bars and lever handles might run $500–$2,000. A walk-in shower conversion ranges from $6,000 to $15,000. Full home accessibility modifications — wider doorways, bathroom conversion, first-floor bedroom, ramp installation — can run $20,000–$60,000. We provide detailed estimates after an on-site walkthrough.

Can you convert a bathtub to a walk-in shower in Lexington?

Yes — this is our most requested aging-in-place modification in Lexington. We remove the tub, build a zero-threshold or low-curb shower with integrated seat, hand-held shower fixture, grab bars, and non-slip flooring. The result looks like a modern bathroom renovation, not a medical installation.

Do aging-in-place modifications require permits in Fayette County?

Plumbing relocations, electrical work, and structural changes (like widening doorways) do require permits in Fayette County. Grab bar installation and cosmetic changes typically don't. We know which modifications need permits and handle the submittal and inspection process for you.

Does insurance or the VA pay for aging-in-place modifications?

Some modifications qualify for VA Specially Adapted Housing grants, long-term care insurance coverage, or Medicaid waiver programs. For Lexington homeowners who don't qualify for those programs, we also offer Acorn Finance payment plans with low monthly options.

Can you make my Lexington home wheelchair accessible?

Yes. We widen doorways to 36" clear width, eliminate thresholds, install ramps, convert bathrooms for wheelchair access, and modify kitchen layouts for wheelchair users. Every modification meets ADA guidelines and is built to last — these aren't temporary fixes.
