How Our Home Modifications Can Help You
Our home modification services are designed to support individuals with disabilities, mobility issues, or other challenges that make daily living difficult. We provide modifications that:
- Improve Safety at Home: Our assessments identify potential hazards, such as tripping risks, and recommend modifications to enhance safety, such as installing grab rails, ramps, or non-slip flooring.
- Increase Accessibility: We ensure your home is accessible for your specific needs, whether that involves widening doorways for wheelchair access, installing ramps, or adjusting the layout to create more space.
- Enhance Independence: Our home modifications aim to maximise your ability to live independently. From accessible bathrooms to kitchen modifications, we help you perform daily tasks with greater ease and comfort.
- Support Mobility Needs: For individuals with limited mobility, we recommend modifications such as stairlifts, lowered countertops, or accessible shower setups to make your home easier to navigate.
- Adapt to Changing Needs: If your condition or circumstances change, we can reassess your home environment and recommend additional modifications to ensure your home continues to meet your needs.
What’s Involved in a Home Modification Assessment?
Our home modification assessments are comprehensive and tailored to your specific needs and living environment. The process typically includes:
- Initial Consultation: We begin with a detailed discussion about your mobility, safety, and daily living needs. This helps us understand your goals and the challenges you face in your current home setup.
- Home Environment Assessment: Our Occupational Therapists conduct a thorough assessment of your home, identifying areas that may need modifications to improve safety, accessibility, or functionality. This can include everything from entranceways and hallways to bathrooms and kitchens.
- Personalised Recommendations: Based on the assessment, we provide customised recommendations for home modifications. These may include grab rails, ramps, accessible bathrooms, widened doorways, or other adjustments tailored to your needs.
- Coordination with Builders and Contractors: If more extensive modifications are required, we can liaise with builders, contractors, and other professionals to ensure the modifications are completed to a high standard.
- Support with NDIS Funding Applications:
We provide detailed reports and recommendations that can be submitted to the NDIS to secure funding for the necessary modifications. Our goal is to help you access the right supports to create a safer and more accessible home.

Home Modifications Frequently Asked Questions
What Are Home Modifications?
Home modifications are changes made to your living environment to improve accessibility, safety, and functionality.
These adjustments can range from simple modifications, such as installing grab rails or widening doorways, to more complex renovations, like creating wheelchair-accessible bathrooms or installing ramps. At Sigma Therapies, our Occupational Therapists assess your home and your individual needs, recommending practical solutions that help you maintain independence and safety in your daily life.
Our home modification services are primarily delivered for NDIS participants and are tailored to meet the goals outlined in your NDIS plan.
Are Home Modifications Covered by Medicare?
Home modifications are typically funded through the National Disability Insurance Scheme (NDIS) for eligible participants.
Medicare does not generally cover home modifications. If you are an NDIS participant, you can access this service as part of your NDIS plan.
We recommend discussing your funding options with your NDIS planner or support coordinator to ensure that the modifications are included in your plan.
If you need home modifications to improve safety and accessibility in your living environment, Sigma Therapies is here to help.
