Repairs With Care

Handyman Services for Senior

Providing a safe living environment is critical to those who wish to Age In Place.  Partners In Care’s Repairs With Care offers handyman services for seniors, such as installing bathroom grab bars, repairing broken steps, changing a lightbulb, or replacing the battery in a smoke-detector. They can also help with “honey-do” items such as replacing a toilet stopper or fixing a leaking faucet, all to help fellow Members feel safe and secure in their homes.

Our goal with Repairs with Care is simple: Help older adults live independently in their own homes and actively engage in the community by addressing the small maintenance tasks that make a big difference.
