What people are saying about Strategies for Independent Living:
Strategies for Independent Living replaced our old garage steps with custom-made wider steps,
a larger landing and new handrails. The new steps have greatly assisted my wife who uses a walker.
Even her friends love the new steps and say they are much easier to
use. They did an excellent job! We have used Strategies for Independent Living in the past for ADA issues and will definitely use them again in the future.

We used Stephen Hage's services when my Mom moved into our home in 2002. He gave us excellent advice, specific recommendations based on Mom's current and projected needs, helped us find appropriate contractors for projects, etc. He was a pleasure to work with, very thoughtful and considerate. His suggestions made everyone's life a lot easier and more comfortable. We recommend him highly.

They installed a custom wheelchair ramp at my parent's home. When the ramp parts shipment was delayed due to no fault of Strategies for Independent Living, they installed a temporary ramp so my mom could get in and out of the house. They then removed that ramp and installed the custom ramp about a week later. It was exactly what my mom needed! When she no longer needed it, they promptly came and removed the ramp, leaving no damage to the stone steps in front of the house. They have offered to try to resell the ramp to recoup some of our investment. Overall, I was very satisfied with their professionalism and service. Would not hesitate to use them again.

Strategies for Independent Living remodeled my bathroom to make it fully accessible. I love the way it functions and my wife loves that it's beautiful! They were very compassionate and understanding about the challenges we were experiencing. They did exactly what needed to be done and they had great subcontractors! I plan on using them for my other bathrooms.

We had a very successful remodeling job done and we're completely satisfied in every way with Mr. Hage and his contractors. They replaced tile, toilet, sink, sink cabinet, and medicine cabinet. Rebuilt the shower and installed new fixtures, a new window and new plumbing. In contrast to some other remodeling jobs we've had, everything was clearly spelled out: costs, schedule, allowances, etc. We had three estimates and chose his company. Mr. Hage was very responsive to any concerns and followed up on each phase of the job. Mr. Hage is experienced at adapting homes for Aging in Place and we were happy to recommend him to some neighbors. We are delighted with our new bathroom! We look forward to using his services for our next project.

I had the bathroom, dressing room and shower remodeled. It's beautiful! It works for all ages. Everyone who sees it loves it.

We were very pleased with Strategies for Independent Living's home assessment report. It included both major issues, such as options for the bathroom, laundry, and lifts for home access, as well as detailed issues including the best location for the installation of grab bars.
Steve and his contractors did an excellent job with the bathroom upgrade and installing an upstairs laundry. Steve visited the house almost every day during the major construction period to monitor the status and quality of the work. Requested changes to the plans were taken in stride. It was clear throughout that Steve’s top priority was customer satisfaction.
It is evident to us that due to Steve's wealth of practical experience in the area of Aging in Place, important details were addressed that other contractors would have missed. We highly recommend this company.

Installed double doors to the patio, widened the doorways, and modified both the hall bathroom and upstairs bathroom to accommodate disabilities. The plumber was terrific. Steve did an excellent job of project management, and staying on budget.
