Accessible bathrooms, safer entryways, and smart layout changes designed for long term independence and multigenerational living.
Most homeowners do not begin searching for remodeling because they want an upgrade. They begin searching because something has changed.
Stairs feel harder to navigate. A recent fall created concern. A parent may be moving in. A hospital discharge is approaching. Families are often trying to answer one question:
Can we make this home safe enough to stay?
Aging in place remodeling adapts an existing home so everyday routines like bathing, entering the home, cooking, and moving between rooms become easier and safer. Instead of relocating to assisted living or downsizing, the home is modified to support long term living.
Many Portland houses were built for younger adults and were never designed for changing mobility or balance. Bathrooms contain slippery surfaces, entryways have step ups, and essential living spaces are often separated by stairs. Small barriers gradually become serious safety risks.
Thoughtful home modifications completed early often allow homeowners to remain independent and comfortable in the home they already own.
A move is not always necessary. The right modifications can dramatically improve safety and usability while preserving the character of your home and your connection to your neighborhood.
We walk through the home with you, identify risk areas, and explain practical solutions.
The bathroom is the most important area in an aging in place renovation because it is where most home injuries occur. Stepping over a bathtub wall or standing on slick flooring becomes dangerous over time even for otherwise healthy adults.
An accessible bathroom remodel improves stability and ease of use while still looking like a modern, comfortable space.
We redesign bathrooms so movement is predictable and secure. Walk in showers replace high tubs, fixtures are positioned for balance, and lighting is improved so the space is easy to navigate day and night.
A properly designed bathroom often becomes the single modification that allows someone to remain living at home safely.
Many homes become difficult simply because moving through them requires unnecessary effort. Step ups at entrances, narrow hallways, and separated living areas create daily obstacles.
We modify homes so daily movement feels natural again. Entryways can be adjusted to remove trip hazards, interior pathways are improved, and key living areas can be relocated to the main level when needed.
These changes help homeowners avoid stairs, reduce fall risk, and continue living independently.
This is especially valuable for families planning multigenerational living arrangements or preparing for retirement in the same home.
Many families contact us after an emergency such as a fall or injury. In reality, aging in place remodeling works best when planned early.
Home modifications are often far less disruptive and more affordable than relocating to assisted living. They also allow homeowners to keep routines, neighbors, and familiarity that support emotional well being.
Universal design features like wider walkways, improved lighting, reachable storage, and safer flooring make a home easier for everyone, not just seniors.
Our goal is not to change how your home feels.
Our goal is to make it continue working for you.
The timeline for a home remodeling project depends on the scope of work, the age of the home, and permitting requirements. Smaller remodels may take a few weeks, while larger renovations or structural changes can take several months. LeRoy Construction provides realistic timelines upfront and plans carefully to minimize delays common in Portland’s permitting process.
Most home remodeling projects in Portland require permits, especially when structural changes, electrical, plumbing, or layout modifications are involved. LeRoy Construction handles the permitting process and ensures all work complies with local zoning and building codes, helping avoid costly issues down the line.
Yes. Many Portland homes are older and require specialized knowledge to remodel properly. LeRoy Construction has decades of experience working with older residential structures, allowing remodels to preserve character while improving safety, functionality, and long term durability.
The decision depends on how your home currently functions and what changes are needed. Remodeling may improve layout and usability within the existing footprint, while an addition can create new space. LeRoy Construction helps homeowners evaluate both options and provides practical guidance based on long term value, zoning considerations, and lifestyle needs.
A well planned home remodel can increase value by improving functionality, livability, and long term usability.
