Not every general contractor is experienced with aging-in-place specific work — a few credentials and questions help you find one who is.
What to look for
- A Certified Aging-in-Place Specialist (CAPS) designation, a recognized credential for this exact niche
- References specifically for accessibility or safety modifications, not just general renovation
- A clear written estimate and timeline before work begins
Get at least two quotes, and ask each contractor directly about experience with grab bar installation and non-slip flooring specifically.
