Site Evaluations

One of our design experts will visit your home or office and evaluate the existing conditions of the space you want modified, and how your special needs can be accommodated in your space.

At the conclusion of our evaluation, we will share with you

  • What can and can’t be achieved
  • Any construction constraints that we are able to identify in our first visit
  • What is required by the building codes should you choose to undertake the modifications we suggest

Finally, we will provide you with a realistic budget to design and build all of the elements that we mutually agree should be a part of your project.

During our visit, we will capture all relevant views of the home or office space with digital photos, so that we will be able to more easily respond to your further request for a formal design.

  

Design

We will generate a full set of construction drawings (blue prints), reflecting the proposed work. The drawings will include views of the existing conditions, the new (proposed) design, elevations, plumbing, electrical and lighting, engineering, and Title 24 (when required).

The design is always driven by your needs and budget. We will assist you not only in choosing color and finishes, but also in selecting the specialized (adaptive) products that best fit your particular needs.

We’ll provide you — and others as necessary — with final copies of the blue prints.

Consulting

We regularly offer consulting services to insurance carriers, the medical and legal professions, as well as to individuals. Services include surveying existing home or office space and providing opinions on its accessibility for a severely injured patient or client; making recommendations for specific modifications; preparing budgetary estimates; and providing detail written reports.

Showrooms

Our showrooms will let you experience the beauty, functionality, and possibilities of our designs, and the range of specialized products that are available. Several full-size displays showcase model kitchens and baths, so that you can experience the comfort and convenience of universal design for yourself. Showrooms are fully accessible, with easy access and plenty of parking.

Construction

Because we are a full-service, design/build firm, we will expertly complete your project with our own, well-trained construction crews. They not only understand the technical details necessary to build your project, but are also sensitive to individual needs, offering a positive experience in the building process.

Alternatively, we may refer you to other recommended construction experts in your area.

Expert Testimony

There are times when mediation, arbitration, or litigation is necessary in order to resolve disputes over how best to provide accessibility to the home or office after a major, disabling injury.

A qualified representative of our firm can assist in this circumstance, providing expert witness work and/or testimony. The scope of this work may include evaluation of current conditions; recommendations for necessary modifications; design and plans; budgetary estimates for a completed project; and assistance with preparation of life-care plans.
