If you or a loved one is having trouble getting in or out of the house a ramp might be the perfect solution. Wheelchair ramps provide a safe and easy path in and out of the home when built correctly. They can be site built out of pressure treated lumber, concrete or aluminum and can be configured to your property.
A common rule of thumb is that for every 1” we come up off the ground we need 12” of ramp to create an acceptable slope. To put this in perspective a home with 5 stairs would have a rise of roughly 40” and would require a 40’ foot ramp. Ramps can get really big really fast and if space is an issue a wheelchair lift might be your best option. Whatever your situation is let us put our expertise to work for you.
