TESTIMONIALS
We feel very fortunate to have helped so many clients and their families since 2007. Please see some of our glowing testimonials below:
Live in Place allowed me to safely transition from in patient rehabilitation center to my home with ease and confidence. Extra railings on two staircases, grab bars and other adaptive items were promptly installed by Greg . A lift was later added. All was customized to my unique needs at a fair price. I don't usually write reviews and rarely award 5 stars but Live in Place deserves high praise. The owners are skilled professionals with a wealth of experience who truly care about the well being and safety of their customers. - Lauren
Getting an in-home assessment by an expert and then follow-up service and installation is convenient and reassuring. This is a unique and much-needed service for anyone with a disabled or elderly loved one at home. Suzi and Greg take the worry and guesswork out of determining what aids (big and small) will make a difference in care and quality of life. - Elizabeth
These folks are really good at what they do. We were in a situation where we needed the house evaluated and modified before my father came home from rehab. They came almost immediately and quickly assessed our needs and ordered the appropriate equipment. They are very easy to talk to, follow up with all of your questions and calls, and are thoughtful and competent. Modifying homes for the elderly and disabled is their primary business, not a side/sometimes business. Highly recommend. - Paul
After making a frantic call to Live In Place to help us install a stairlift and a ramp, Greg showed up within a few hours to help us determine a strategy that was best for us. He listened to our needs and then carefully plotted a plan that allowed our family to "live in place." He was very knowledgeable and his suggestions were so insightful and helpful. The end result was a perfect solution and his craftsmanship was amazing. - Jim
I received less than a week of notice that my home needed to be modified for an elderly family member moving. Greg with Live in Place was knowledgeable, professional and so helpful. Greg had my home ready within days. I am very pleased with the service and the product. - DeAnna
“Our need for household modifications was urgent after my husband's hospitalization. All of the materials you installed were of top quality. We could not have imagined it could be done so quickly. The fun of 'driving' the stair lift gave my husband's spirits a lift after a very hard time. Thank you.” – Gail
