Adaptiv Home Renovations

Announcing Woodsmith Construction Inc.’s CHBA Adaptiv Home Renovation Certification

Woodsmith Construction Inc. is excited to share that we have recently completed the CHBA Adaptiv Home Course. This certification highlights our commitment to creating safe, accessible, and comfortable living environments for homeowners, regardless of their age, ability, or condition.

 

Understanding the CHBA Adaptiv Home Course

The CHBA Adaptiv Home Course is designed to address the growing need for homes that can adapt to the changing needs of their occupants. Whether due to aging, disability, or a desire to remain in one’s home for as long as possible, Adaptiv Home renovations ensure that living spaces are safe, accessible, and comfortable.

 

What is an Adaptiv Home?

An Adaptiv Home is one that has been modified to support the needs of its occupants, ensuring safety, accessibility, and comfort. The modifications can include structural changes, the installation of assistive devices, and the use of adaptive technologies to create an environment that enhances independence and quality of life.

 

Benefits of Adaptiv Home Renovations

For homeowners, investing in adaptiv home renovations offers several key benefits:

  • Enhanced Safety and Accessibility: Homes are modified to reduce the risk of accidents and make navigation easier for individuals with mobility challenges.
  • Improved Comfort: Adaptiv homes are designed to provide a comfortable living environment, with features that cater to the specific needs of the occupants.
  • Longevity in the Home: These renovations enable homeowners to live in their homes for as long as possible, avoiding the need to move to assisted living facilities.
  • Increased Property Value: Homes with adaptive features are becoming increasingly attractive in the real estate market, potentially boosting property value.

 

How Woodsmith Construction Inc. Achieved Certification

Our journey to achieving the CHBA Adaptiv Home Course certification involved comprehensive training and a deep commitment to understanding and implementing the best practices in adaptive home design. The CHBA Adaptiv Home Renovation Course covers crucial areas such as:

  • The Adaptiv Home Market: Understanding the demographics and needs of homeowners who require adaptive modifications.
  • Design Considerations: Learning how to design spaces that are safe, accessible, and comfortable.
  • Building Knowledge: Gaining expertise in construction practices that support adaptive living.
  • Specialized Knowledge: Acquiring knowledge about assistive technologies and adaptive equipment.
  • Resources: Utilizing a range of resources to support adaptive home renovations.

We worked with Chris Smith and Woodsmith Construction Inc. on a large-scale renovation of our east-end semi and we couldn’t be happier with the finished product. The project included adding a third floor, underpinning the basement, and updating the interior throughout the house. Chris handled both the design and the build, and he is incredibly knowledgeable about all stages of the process. He was professional and responsive and always had our best interests at heart. His team was hard-working and respectful and they were all a pleasure to work with.Chris was professional, calm, and reasonable in working with our neighbours at all stages of the process and earned a very positive reputation among people on the street who saw the process and admired the result. The final product maintains the same exterior character of the home while updating the interior and making it a hundred times more functional for our family. It is a total transformation from what it used to be and we thank Chris for his vision and guidance throughout the process.Chris and his team were organized, professional, and always on top of the details. They kept us in the loop throughout the project and made sure everything was done to the highest standard. We would not hesitate to recommend Woodsmith to anyone undertaking a residential renovation – he is one of the hardest-working people we know and we are very grateful for his expertise and dedication.

Woodsmith construction just completed a gut job and garage addition for my husband and I and it was the best experience I could have hoped for especially given all the renovation horror stories we have heard. They were so professional, helpful, diligent and responsive and the quality of the renovation was first class. I would recommend anyone to hire Woodsmith construction for all their needs whether it is a renovation or a new build. We could not be happier with the outcome and our newly renovated home.

We worked with Chris Smith and Woodsmith Construction Inc. on the design for a garage addition, and the experience was fantastic. The project included adding attic trusses to create a new walk-in closet and laundry room that seamlessly connected to our existing main bedroom. Chris’s goal was to make the addition feel like it had always been part of the home, and he absolutely nailed it.From the start, Chris took the time to understand what we needed and came up with a design that not only maximized the functionality of the space but also kept the style consistent with the rest of the house. He paid close attention to every detail, from the layout to the finishes, ensuring everything worked perfectly with our main bedroom.The design makes such smart use of the space, and it feels like a natural extension of the home rather than an afterthought. Chris was great to work with—responsive, creative, and incredibly knowledgeable. He even provided advice on how to approach the construction phase, which made us feel confident moving forward.If you’re looking for someone to bring your vision to life with a thoughtful and practical design, we highly recommend Chris Smith and Woodsmith Construction. The design he created for us has truly enhanced our home. Our construction is well under way and we are already seeing the great design come to life!
