Aging Homes Create New Safety Risks
Most homes were never designed with aging in mind.
Common concerns we see in homes across Pottsville, PA and surrounding area include:
• Slippery bathrooms without grab bars
• Low toilets that make standing difficult
• Poor lighting in hallways and stairways
• Stairs without proper handrails
• High bathtub walls that create fall risks
• Small maintenance issues that become safety hazards
Cornerstead focuses specifically on aging-in-place home safety, helping homeowners address these risks early so they can continue living comfortably and independently.

Stair & Handrail Safety
Installing or improving handrails on stairs helps reduce fall risk and improve stability throughout the home.
