A Home Mod can make all the difference………in your world!

A Home Mod can increase mobility, provide access, make things more functional, enable you to do things, make you more independent.

Home Mods can be paid for through Medicaid waiver programs and various grants (when available).

The Home Mod Construction Officer handles the entire process from initial assessment to final inspection……keeping you informed the whole way.

Typical modifications and improvements include ramps, lifts, widening doorways, grab bars, barrier free showers with benches, wall mounted sinks, lowering counters, roll under work spaces, better lighting, etc. All designed to make your life better.

The AIM Home Mod staff will seek your input and listen to your concerns. They will be sensitive to your needs and treat you and your home with the utmost respect.

		“Randy came into our home and saw the physical needs Dean has. He was polite and informative. He followed the project through. He worked with contractors to find a way for Dean to be able to bathe in a safe and well lit environment. He gave Dean the feeling of being a normal human being again. The contractors that were hired were polite, on time, diligent, and always aware of the fact that they were in the home of someone who was having great difficulty. They didn’t cause us any more. They did a great job. Thank you for our dignity. Without your help, we would be lost”. Dean & Holly

TIPS for the ‘DO-IT-YOURSELF’ers’

If you hire your own contractor, handy worker, or remodeler, try to get recommendations from others who have had similar projects completed and always hire a licensed and bonded professional.

• The PA Attorney General's website www.attorneygeneral.gov is where you can verify a contractor's license and also search for state registered contractors in your area. You can also visit this site to learn about the Home Improvement Consumer Protection Act.
• Check with the local Better Business Bureau (http://lookup.bbb.org) regarding the contractor’s reliability and performance record.
