Home Safety Assessment & Aging in Place Installation

Grab Bars, Handrails, Ramps, Fall Prevention & Senior Home Safety Improvements

Staying in your home should never mean sacrificing safety. As mobility changes, everyday areas of the house — bathrooms, stairs, entries, and walkways — can quietly become fall risks.

Mr Home Guy helps families make smart, practical safety upgrades that support independent living. We install home safety products correctly — secure, level, and built to last — without making the home feel “medical.”

Most homes were not designed for changing mobility needs. The highest-risk areas are typically bathrooms and stairways, followed by entries and uneven floor transitions.

Common risks include:

• Slippery surfaces and wet floors
• No stable support while standing or stepping over a tub
• Loose or missing handrails
• Entry steps without a safe grip point
• Poor lighting at night
• Tripping hazards from cords, rugs, and clutter

Small improvements can dramatically reduce fall risk and improve daily confidence at home.

Bathrooms are one of the most common places for falls. Proper support makes the biggest difference.

We install:

• Grab bars (stud-mounted, not suction)
• Shower grab bars and stability bars
• Toilet safety rails and support handles
• Shower seats and transfer benches
• Hand-held shower mounts
• Raised toilet seats and accessories
• Non-slip safety hardware (as requested)

Every safety bar is mounted using proper structural attachment methods for real-world load support.

Safe movement inside the home should be predictable and supported.

We install:

• Stair handrails (interior and exterior)
• Additional support rails where needed
• Entry safety rails
• Step lighting and visibility improvements (light installs)
• Stability handles for key transition points

Proper rail height, secure anchoring, and strong mounting hardware matter — especially when safety depends on it.

Getting in and out of the home should feel stable and stress-free.

We help with:

• Wheelchair and walker ramps (as requested)
• Threshold ramps for door transitions
• Exterior handrails for steps and porches
• Entry support points for safer transitions
• Minor adjustments that improve access and flow

While private homes aren’t required to meet commercial ADA rules, we apply accessibility best practices for safer, more comfortable living.

A Home Safety Assessment is helpful for:

• Seniors living independently
• Families planning ahead (prevention first)
• Post-surgery or post-hospital recovery
• Balance or mobility changes
• Caregivers supporting a loved one at home

Many families schedule a safety assessment before a problem occurs. Others schedule after a fall or during recovery. Both are common — and we’ll guide you through it.

Improper installation can lead to:

• Grab bars pulling from drywall
• Handrails loosening over time
• Unsafe ramp placement or anchoring
• Wall damage from incorrect anchors

Mr Home Guy installs safety equipment using correct mounting height, proper stud placement, and load-rated hardware so your safety upgrades perform long-term.

Aging in Place can be complicated — and it should never start with guessing what equipment to install. Begin with a Home Safety Assessment so we can review the home, identify safety risks, and recommend the right upgrades.

After the visit: we prepare a clear service request outlining recommended safety improvements. From that service request, we generate your estimate and help you schedule installation when you’re ready.
