Age-Friendly Home Renovations

The need for age-friendly housing increases.

There is an emerging populations of seniors in Alberta. According to Alberta Seniors and Housing, there will be more than 923,000 seniors in Alberta by 2031. That means about one in five Albertans will be over the age of 65. As this population ages, the need for age-friendly housing increases. More and more seniors will choose to stay in their own homes as long as possible in order to stay independent and connected to a community they are comfortable in.

Studies have shown that 93 per cent of seniors want to remain in their home, while another survey states that 85 per cent of senior homeowners have done nothing to prepare their home for their changing needs. This goes to show that most seniors just don’t know where to start. That’s where Reliable Contracting Services in Edmonton can help.
