Accessibility Contractors in Edina, Minnesota
Home accessibility modifications and ADA compliance..
Accessibility contractors modify homes and buildings for people with mobility challenges, aging in place, and ADA compliance. Common projects include wheelchair ramp installation, grab bar and handrail installation, doorway widening, roll-in shower conversions, stairlift installation, and threshold modifications. Aging-in-place modifications help homeowners remain safely in their homes as mobility changes — the cost of accessibility modifications is typically far less than assisted living. Many modifications qualify for Veterans Affairs (VA) grants, Medicaid waiver programs, or state aging services funding. A Certified Aging in Place Specialist (CAPS) designation indicates specialized training in accessibility remodeling.

General Accessibility FAQs
How much does a wheelchair ramp cost?
A residential wheelchair ramp costs $1,000–$5,000 depending on length, material, and design. ADA guidelines require a maximum 1:12 slope (1 inch of rise per 12 inches of run), so a 24-inch-high entrance requires at least 24 feet of ramp with landings. Wood ramps: $1,000–$3,000. Aluminum modular ramps: $1,500–$4,000. Concrete ramps: $2,000–$5,000. Modular aluminum ramps can be rented for temporary needs ($100–$300/month). Veterans may qualify for VA home modification grants covering the full cost.
What aging-in-place modifications are most important?
The highest-impact aging-in-place modifications are: grab bars in bathrooms ($100–$300 each installed, dramatically reduce fall risk), a walk-in or roll-in shower ($3,000–$8,000, replacing a tub-shower combo), lever door handles throughout the home ($20–$50 each), improved lighting in hallways and stairways, a stairlift if the home has multiple levels ($3,000–$6,000), and wider doorways (at least 32–36 inches clear) for wheelchair or walker access ($500–$1,500 per opening). Many of these modifications are low-cost relative to the alternative of moving to assisted living ($3,000–$8,000/month).
