Building Adaptations – Old

Building Adaptations

The importance of safe and convenient access to any home cannot be understated, and as such we specialise in the provision and installation of pre-manufactured metal ramp and platform systems. We can also build bespoke concrete ramping with platforms and hand railing as applicable.

The metal ramping and platform systems are quick to install and, with such a large range of components available, most applications and designs can be catered for. However, for those that require a more bespoke and permanent design, concrete ramps and platforms are constructed. These can be in a plain, non-slip tamped concrete finish or paved. These can match in with the existing finish of the front or rear garden and driveway of the property.

Low-level access UPVC, composite or wooden exterior doors can be supplied and installed in conjunction with the ramps and platforms. Depending on site conditions, in some instances, the entrance doors can also be increased in width to make the entrance and exit easier for those using wheelchairs or scooters.

Working closely with the occupant

As a specialist contractor, we have the in-house skills to meet the occupant’s requirements.

No two properties are the same and require different solutions, such as a raised platform, to be entered. As with all of the work we carry out, we work closely with the occupant of the property to understand their needs and to provide what will be best for them. Our team can then construct bespoke concrete ramps, platforms and hand railings. 

Whether it’s a council-owned property, or a privately owned one, we approach each job with the same expertise and respect. Our aim is to allow the occupant of the property to be able to continue to live independently in their own home.

All entry points catered for

We want to make sure that the occupant of the property can enjoy as much of their home as they can. As such, we’re able to install ramped access to other entrances to the house too. This means that the garden and any side entrances can still be used by the occupant. 

As we’ve mentioned, the adaptations that we install can match the current exterior of the property. This ensures that the new addition to the home blends in.
