Most people want to stay in their own home as they age, and thoughtful accessible remodeling makes that safe and comfortable — which is some of our most meaningful and most-requested work in Florence. The town has a large retiree population, anchored by the Del Webb 55-plus community at Anthem at Merrill Ranch, so aging-in-place projects are a cornerstone of what we do here. We specialize in barrier-free design: curbless walk-in showers, comfort-height fixtures, grab bars and reinforced walls, wider doorways, and better lighting — done so the home feels welcoming and modern, never clinical. Whether it is a single accessible bathroom or whole-home changes, we bring the same permitted, quality construction and respectful process to every Florence project.

Accessible & Aging-in-Place Remodeling in Florence: What Local Homeowners Should Know
Anthem at Merrill Ranch is the heart of accessible remodeling in Florence. Its large active-adult population is planning ahead — converting tubs to curbless walk-in showers, adding grab bars on properly reinforced blocking, installing comfort-height toilets and accessible vanities, widening doorways, and improving lighting and slip resistance. Because these homes are newer, the structural picture is predictable, which keeps the work efficient and lets us focus on doing it beautifully. The goal is always a home that supports independence while looking clean, modern, and high-end — aging in place without the institutional feel that people rightly want to avoid.
Accessible work in other parts of Florence brings added considerations. In historic downtown homes, older, tighter floor plans and decades-old systems mean accessibility changes take more planning — widening a doorway or building a curbless shower in a century-old home requires care with the existing structure and plumbing, and we approach it with a character-sensitive hand. On larger rural lots, a single-level layout and room to widen access are advantages, though adding fixtures can involve septic considerations. Across all of Florence, we start with an honest assessment of how you live in your home and design changes that support independence now and in the future — and we handle every Town of Florence permit the work requires.
Accessible & Aging-in-Place Remodeling Costs in Florence
Remodeling costs in Florence generally sit at or a little below the broader East Valley average, which is part of the town's appeal. As planning ranges, a mid-range kitchen remodel typically runs $30,000–$60,000, a full bathroom remodel $18,000–$35,000, and a walk-in shower conversion $8,000–$20,000. Room additions generally start in the tens of thousands and rise with square footage, while a detached casita or ADU commonly runs $150,000–$300,000+ depending on size, finishes, and site conditions.
Project Spotlight: A whole-home aging-in-place update in Anthem at Merrill Ranch
A Merrill Ranch couple wanted to stay in their Del Webb home for the long term and asked us to make it safe for the years ahead. We converted the primary tub to a curbless walk-in shower with a bench and grab bars on reinforced blocking, installed comfort-height toilets and an accessible vanity, widened two doorways for easier passage, added lever handles and better lighting throughout, and replaced slick flooring with slip-resistant surfaces. Everything was designed to look modern and high-end, not clinical. Because the home was newer, the work went smoothly — and they now have a home built to support their independence.
Permits & HOAs for Accessible & Aging-in-Place Remodeling in Florence
Florence's larger and rural lots bring a few added considerations. Properties outside the reach of municipal sewer often rely on septic systems, so an addition, casita, or ADU that adds bathrooms or bedrooms may involve septic capacity, site work, and additional review — sometimes at the Pinal County level as well as the Town of Florence. We assess your lot early, factor any septic and site-work realities into the scope, and fold it all into a single fixed-price quote so a larger rural project does not come with surprises.

Florence Neighborhoods We Serve
We serve homeowners across all of Florence, from the historic, character-rich streets of Downtown Florence to the newer Del Webb homes of Anthem at Merrill Ranch, the established neighborhood of Magic Ranch, and the larger semi-rural lots out toward Arizona Farms. Because Florence spans everything from century-old adobes to brand-new master-planned homes and rural acreage, we adjust our approach, finishes, and site planning to fit each property — and we handle permits through the Town of Florence and Pinal County across ZIP code 85132, so wherever you are in town, we already understand the local requirements.
Why Florence Homeowners Choose Gilbert GC
Florence's split personality — historic downtown on one side, a fast-growing Del Webb community and rural lots on the other — is exactly why it pays to hire a general contractor comfortable across all of it. A crew that only knows new builds can be out of its depth in a century-old adobe, and a crew that only does quick cosmetic work can miss what a larger rural project truly requires. We work across the full range of Florence homes and know how to get the best result from each.
