Winter Safety & Accessibility Upgrades

Make Your Home Easier to Live In (For Every Age)

Snow, ice, bulky coats, and shorter days make everyday tasks a little harder. Thoughtful remodels can reduce slips, simplify routines, and keep your home comfortable for every guest—kids to grandparents.

Here are practical, good‑looking upgrades we design and build for Southeast Wisconsin winters.

Safer Entries & Transitions

• Heated tile at entries dries snow fast and protects floors.
  
• Closed storage for boots and bags keeps pathways clear.
  
• Better lighting & motion sensors reduce fumbling with gloves on.

Bathroom Comfort & Accessibility

• Low‑threshold or curbless showers with linear drains.
• Grab bars that match your fixtures (no “institutional” look).
• Side‑lit mirrors and quiet ventilation for fog‑free comfort.

Kitchen That Works in Layers

• Pull‑out pantries and roll‑out trays reduce bending and reaching.
  
• Under‑cabinet lighting brightens prep in dark afternoons.
  
• Touch or pull‑down faucets keep things clean with gloves or messy hands.

Stairs, Railings & Hallways

• Continuous handrails at the right height.
• Non‑slip treads and contrasting nosings for visibility.
• Wider casings or pocket doors for easier movement between rooms.

Lighting for Short Days

Layered lighting and warmer color temperature make interiors welcoming and easier to navigate when sunset comes before dinner.

Storage that Works in Winter

Dedicated mudroom lockers, bench seating, and charging drawers keep gear in place and cords out of sight.
