Barrier Free Plus is based in Macomb Township, so Macomb County is our home base. We design and install wheelchair ramps, stairlifts, home elevators, roll-in showers and accessible bathrooms for seniors, veterans and people with disabilities in every part of the county, from St. Clair Shores and Warren up to Romeo and New Baltimore.
Accessibility services in Macomb County
- Home elevators: Residential elevators for two- and three-story homes, for families who want a long-term alternative to stairs.
- Stairlifts: Straight and curved stair chair lifts that let you keep using every floor of your home without climbing the stairs.
- Wheelchair and handicap ramps: Modular aluminum and steel ramps sized to your entry, with handrails and landings, so a wheelchair, walker or scooter can get in and out safely.
- Vertical platform lifts: Wheelchair platform lifts for porches, garages and split-level entries where a ramp would be too long or too steep.
- Accessible bathrooms, grab bars and walk-in tubs: Full or partial bathroom remodels with wider doorways, comfort-height toilets, properly anchored grab bars and walk-in tubs.
- Roll-in and barrier-free showers: Curbless showers with a low or no threshold, a seat, grab bars and a handheld spray, built in place of a tub or an old stall.
- Ceiling lifts: Track-mounted patient lifts that make transfers between bed, chair and bathroom safer for the person and the caregiver.
What we see most in Macomb County
Most of our Macomb County projects start with one of two questions: how to get in and out of the house safely, or how to keep using a second floor or basement. For entries we usually look at a modular aluminum ramp first, then a vertical platform lift when the rise is too high for a ramp to fit the yard. For stairs, a stairlift is the fastest fix, and a home elevator is the long-term option for families planning to stay in a two-story house for many years. Searches for home elevators in Macomb County have grown steadily, and we can walk you through what an elevator install involves before you commit.
How a project works
- Free quote visit. We come to the home, talk with you (and your therapist or case manager if you have one), and measure.
- A clear plan and price. You get a written quote with the product, layout and timeline.
- Permits where needed. Ramps, lifts, elevators and structural bathroom changes often need a permit from the local building department; we go over what your project needs before work starts.
- Installation. Our licensed and insured crew installs the work and shows you how to use and care for it.
Help paying for home modifications
Funding depends on your situation. Eligible veterans may qualify for VA home modification grants such as SAH, SHA and HISA; see our veterans information page. Area Agency on Aging 1-B serves Macomb County and can point older adults to in-home services and programs that may help with the cost of home modifications. Some long-term care and waiver programs also cover home modifications, so ask your case manager what applies to you.
