Everyone deserves to feel safe at home. Yet, for a growing number of Australian senior citizens and others who qualify for Specialist Disability Accommodation (SDA), finding accessible housing is an exasperating process. This is because the need for safe, accessible places to live in Perth far outweighs the availability.
It is surprising to learn that the huge need for accessible housing across Australia will rise by 60% in the coming years. Now, more than ever, Australians need a company to help create safe housing for those with physical challenges. That’s why more people in Western Australia are turning to AccessAble Home Modifications.
Who Are
Who Are
For over seven years, Accessible Home Modifications have been Perth’s accessibility experts. Our specialty is residential and commercial modifications for those with disabilities, injuries or mobility problems.
Our team of professionals use universal design fixtures and practices in all of our projects. At its core, universal design fixtures and practices represent the idea that all areas should be accessible for the elderly, disabled, and those who have mobility challenges.
The idea of universal design includes the belief that furnishings and styling should be beautiful, evoke positive emotions, as well as offer improved accessibility. Our mobility experts are passionate about providing safe, stylish, and functional spaces for those who need modifications to move with ease.

While the bathroom is arguably the most important room in a home, it also is a place where many preventable accidents can happen. Your bathroom modification starts with a phone consultation where we learn more about your needs, the changes you would like, your budget, and your time frame. If we are a good fit for your project, the next step would be a safety audit of your bathroom. Our team can determine what is necessary to make your bathroom safe and accessible. A registered Occupational Therapist reviews our modified bathroom design to ensure that your needs are met and that your bathroom will have all of the features you need.
Those with mobility issues need toilets designed to exacting standards to ensure safety. Our Accessibility Experts work with various design options and will incorporate easy height, ambulant, or disabled toilets as necessary. We will also install appropriate supports and grab bars, along with easy-to-use lever tapware and non-slip tiles.
In addition to toilets, showers, and tubs, we can modify various parts of an existing wet room, such as sinks and fixtures. We can also design and build wet rooms to ensure your safety and mobility is maximised at home.
Modifications for accessible showers vary greatly depending on individual circumstances. Our Accessibility Experts customise your shower according to your needs and mobility. We can install shower seats and grab-bars, adjustable height handheld shower sprayers, no-slip tiles, and convert your shower to wheel-in or walk-in accessibility.
Our Accessibility Experts will design the perfect walk-in shower to ensure your safety. Based on your needs, we can install various helpful equipment. This includes shower benches, support bars, adjustable height shower heads, non-slip tile, and a thermostatic shower valve to prevent scalding.
The hob is the low piece of bathtub material that surrounds the front of your shower. These are frequently the cause of accidents as many people cannot clear them while stepping into the shower. At Accessible Home Modifications, we remove hobs on a regular basis, making showers fully accessible.
Our Accessibility Experts understand the unique nature of accessible kitchen designs. We will have a registered occupational therapist review our plans to make sure everything will enhance your safety and independence while in your kitchen. Our kitchen cupboard inserts are especially helpful to many of our clients. These can be put into your existing cupboards and make reaching items safer and more accessible.
Our expert team can adapt many areas of your home to make your life easier. Some of our general modifications include:
Most doorways are not wide enough for wheelchairs to safely pass through. Our Accessibility Experts can help restore your ability to move about your home by widening doorways. We can also install outdoor wheelchair ramps if needed.
Well placed handrails make a huge difference for many of our clients. These are useful in many other areas besides the bathroom. Our experts will work with you to determine where handrails would be the most helpful for you.
For grab bars to help keep you safe, they must be in the correct position and mounted to support an adult’s body weight. Our Accessibility Experts will install grab bars to give you the maximum safety and assistance.
