Home Safety Solutions

At Perth TLC Group, we understand that every home can present unique challenges when it comes to ensuring the safety and comfort of its occupants. Beyond our standard offerings, we also provide a range of specialised solutions designed to address various aspects of home safety for you and your loved ones.

Hot Water Safety
Hot water can pose significant risks for those with dementia. We can install devices that limit the heat output, protecting clients from scalding injuries. Tempering valves or thermostatic mixing valves may be ideal solutions to ensure water temperature remains safe and consistent.

Gas Stove Safety
Similarly, gas stoves can become hazardous for clients with dementia if left on unintentionally. To mitigate this risk, we offer solutions such as swapping gas stoves for electric models or installing devices that automatically shut off the gas within a set time frame or require a carer’s intervention.

Kitchen Enhancements + Adjustments
Bending over to look inside cabinets can be challenging. By adding drawers, we can make kitchens much more user-friendly and accessible, reducing the need for unnecessary bending. Kitchen benchtops, tables, chairs, and beds may become impractical for seated users due to their height or width. We offer modifications to these fixtures, ensuring they are not only suitable for everyday use – but can enhance comfort and accessibility.

Laundry Modifications
Low washing machines and dryers can create unsafe situations. We provide risers for these appliances, making them much easier to access and use safely.

Bedroom + Bathroom Additions
For those who find it difficult to move upstairs, the comfort and ease of having essential amenities close to hand by adding a bedroom or bathroom downstairs can significantly improve day-to-day living. We offer customised solutions to create accessible and convenient living spaces on the ground floor.

Door Modifications
Hinged doors can obstruct access to showers or other areas of the home. We can convert hinged doors to sliding doors, providing more space within rooms. Additionally, we can widen doorways where possible to improve accessibility for wheelchairs, walkers, or frames. We can also lower the position of door knobs and handles, making them more accessible and easier to reach for all users.

Outdoor Area Rectifications
Over time, paving can shift, creating tripping hazards for those unsteady on their feet. We provide paving rectification services to smooth out uneven areas and enhance safety around the property. Additionally, we can improve garden layouts and pathways to ensure smooth and safe navigation, making them easily accessible for wheelchairs, walkers, or frames.

These thoughtful modifications and improvements can significantly enhance safety, promote independence, and provide peace of mind for you and your loved ones.
