Many of Marietta's longtime residents — particularly in the established neighborhoods near the Square and in West Cobb — are choosing to stay in homes they've owned for 20 or 30 years rather than downsize. Making those homes work for the long term means thoughtful modifications, not just grab bars — rethinking thresholds, widening doorways, and improving lighting throughout.

We work with families throughout Marietta who are planning for a parent to move in or modifying their own home for long-term accessibility — and we know how to do it in a way that doesn't make the house feel clinical.

What to Expect — Investment Range

Age in place modifications in Greater Atlanta typically range from $8,000 for a targeted bathroom modification to $35,000 for a comprehensive whole-home accessibility upgrade.

Marietta projects typically land in the mid-to-upper portion of that range, reflecting the neighborhood expectations and the quality of finish that protects home values in this market.

CAPS-certified planning ensures modifications qualify for any applicable insurance or VA reimbursement — documentation matters.

Frequently Asked Questions

How long does a age in place project take in Marietta?

Targeted modifications like a bathroom conversion take 1–2 weeks. Comprehensive whole-home accessibility projects — doorway widening, ramp construction, full bathroom conversion — typically run 4–6 weeks.

My home is a 1980s colonial in East Cobb — what should I know before starting a renovation?

East Cobb colonials from the 1980s are solid homes, but they carry the hallmarks of their era: galley kitchens, fiberglass bathroom surrounds, aluminum wiring in some cases, and original HVAC systems that may need updating when walls are opened. We always assess these conditions upfront so we can budget accurately and avoid mid-project surprises.

Do you pull permits in Cobb County?

Yes — we handle all permitting for projects in Cobb County. We prepare the documentation, submit the application, schedule all required inspections, and keep you informed at each stage. You don't need to manage the permit process — that's part of what you're hiring us to do.
