Making Homes Safer and More Accessible – NDIS Home Modifications
Home should be the safest and most comfortable place for everyone – especially for people living with a disability. Under the NDIS, home modifications are funded to help participants live more independently and safely within their own homes. At OpenHearted Support, we understand how essential a safe environment is for daily living. That’s why we’ve partnered with Fabnest Building Group – experts in disability-accessible renovations – to deliver high-quality home modification services.

What Are NDIS Home Modifications

Home modifications refer to changes made to a person’s home to improve accessibility, mobility, and safety. These modifications are funded by the NDIS if they are deemed reasonable and necessary. They are especially helpful for participants who face challenges using bathrooms, kitchens, entrances, or navigating their homes due to mobility limitations.

Common home modifications include:

  • Installing grab rails or handrails
  • Widening doorways for wheelchair access
  • Accessible ramps or step eliminations
  • Modifying bathrooms with accessible showers and toilets
  • Kitchen adjustments for seated access
  • Lifting systems and stair lifts

  • Our Partnership with Fabnest Building Group

    We proudly collaborate with Fabnest Building Group to deliver reliable and NDIS-compliant home modifications. Fabnest has extensive experience in working with NDIS participants, families, and occupational therapists to make sure every modification suits the participant’s goals and needs.
