The Waltham remodeler is spotlighting aging-in-place renovations on August 21, from curbless showers to wider doorways, with free consultations for local families.

Waltham, MA (PRUnderground) August 13th, 2026

August 21 is National Senior Citizens Day, and K&A Home Remodelers Co. of Waltham is using it to spotlight the least glamorous and most requested job in their book: making a house work for the person who plans on staying in it.

Aging in place has quietly become one of the fastest growing corners of residential remodeling. The work is rarely dramatic. A curbless walk-in shower instead of a tub with a twelve inch wall to climb over. Wider doorways. Lever handles. A first floor bathroom where there used to be a closet. Done right, none of it looks like a hospital.

To mark the day, K&A is offering free design consultations for accessibility upgrades. Licensed and insured since 2017, the Moody Street company handles bathroom remodeling in Waltham, kitchen renovations, tile and natural stone, carpentry, and full gut remodels.

"Nine times out of ten somebody calls us after a fall, and by then everyone's stressed out and rushing," said owner Alejandro Paz Sorto. "It's a much better job when we have time to do it right. And honestly, half of it is stuff people should want anyway. A bigger shower with no step to trip over is just a better shower."

Homeowners can book a free consultation by calling (857) 654-6690, or by visiting the home remodeling team at 282 Moody St, Unit 401 in Waltham.
