Errands & Household Help

Home Help and Handyman Services for Seniors

Home help covers the small jobs that become risky on a ladder or heavy for one person: changing light bulbs, moving furniture, hanging pictures, testing smoke alarms and fixing a sticking door.

Book a few jobs into one visit. Most helpers charge a minimum, so a short list is better value than a single bulb.

Ask for a written price before work starts and whether they carry liability insurance.

For grab bars, stair railings and ramps, use an installer who mounts them into studs or blocking. Our aging-in-place directory lists them.

A regular monthly visit catches small problems, like a dead smoke alarm battery, before they become big ones.

We're expanding our directory of providers in this category. In the meantime, our advisors can help you find trusted, vetted providers near you.
