Aging-In-Place Remodeling Makes Spaces Safe For All Ages

Trusted in Arlington, Alexandria, Fairfax & Surrounding Communities Since 1983

Aging-in-place features are smart additions to any home. Safety is the one consistent element in each project we design and build. We believe your home should be a comfortable space for the whole family from elders wanting to stay at home to small children just beginning to explore their surroundings. We integrate aging-in-place home modifications so you have wider doors, slip resistant tile, and comfort height toilets before you even need them. You’re never too young to think about aging-in-place remodeling for safe, independent living.

What Aging in Place Remodeling Includes

Every aging in place project is different, but most start with the areas of the home where safety matters most.

Bathrooms. Curbless, zero-threshold showers eliminate the trip hazard of a step-in tub or shower lip. Comfort height toilets, taller vanities, and slip-resistant flooring reduce daily strain and risk. Grab bars and seated shower areas can be built in without the clinical look older accessibility products used to have.

Kitchens. Wider walkways accommodate mobility aids like walkers or wheelchairs. Lower or adjustable-height counters, pull-out shelving, and accessible cabinet hardware make everyday tasks easier to manage independently.

Whole-home layout. One-level living, whether through a main-level primary suite or a full single-story reconfiguration, removes the need to navigate stairs for daily routines. Wider doorways and hallways throughout the home support wheelchair and walker access.

Controls and lighting. Light switches, thermostats, and other controls placed at accessible heights, paired with brighter, well-placed lighting, reduce fall risk and make the home easier to move through at any hour.

Smart Design Builds Safer Bathrooms.

A bathroom is the perfect place to focus on aging-in-place design. With hard, slick surfaces, your bathroom can be one of the most dangerous areas of your home. Bathroom remodels, in-law suites, and primary suites from Foster Remodeling Solutions, Inc., are just a few places you can include aging-in-place design features. Curbless showers, taller height vanity cabinets, and areas to sit and apply makeup are just a few of the many elements we include in our comprehensive design plans.

See What Your Neighbors Are Saying

An excellent experience! From preliminary discussions and design sketches, to choices of tile, cabinetry, fixtures and color schemes, to blueprints and a superb construction team with an on-site leader, the outcome was everything we wanted. It’s a truly professional organization, from start to finish.


Paul B.

I had a great experience with Foster Remodeling. They made the process stress-free from design, to renovation, to completion of the project. Dianne saw my vision and designed an amazing renovation of my basement. John, as the lead carpenter was so friendly and his attention to detail was the best. He always kept me informed during the renovation and completed the renovation on time and within budget. It was a real pleasure working with Foster Remodeling.


Deborah R.

From initial meeting until completion of project, everyone at Foster Remodeling has been a joy to work with. We couldn’t be more pleased with our finished product. Everyone who worked on our project had patience in answering our myriad of questions and performed their respective tasks with utmost professionalism. Fosters was not the least expensive of the estimates we received, but they were, by far, the most willing to accommodate our specific requests and the completed product surpassed even our own expectations. Should we have future projects, Foster Remodeling will be the first company we call.


Donald B.

We called Foster Remodeling for our bathroom renovation, initiated by a leak. They did such an amazing job! From the design team to our final walkthrough our experience was 10/10. They went above and beyond to fix all problems caused by the leak and helped to create a new beautiful bathroom. The entire team is professional, courteous and respectful. I wouldn’t use anyone else for our home improvement needs.


Anna W.

I hired Foster Remodeling to finish my concrete basement because of their high quality rating, and that’s exactly what I got. The workers were friendly and professional. When questions arose the lead man came to me to discuss exactly what I was looking for. I would recommend Foster Remodeling to anyone wanting to get a professional job done.
