What if someone -
Besides you -
Did the maintenance on your home?
What if you could experience the luxury of maintenance-provided living in the home and neighborhood of your choice? BHC is your ‘one phone call’ maintenance provider.
Times have changed! Retirement has changed! No longer are retirees sittin’ on the front porch in a rocker. Most people experience a new burst of life in the retirement years, and Bradford Homes™ applauds all the ways that you are pouring into your family and your community. Let us take away some of the stress of maintaining your home, so you can enjoy the freedom that comes from this well-earned lifestyle. Most people want to spend Senior years in their home! It’s where they live! The clear majority of retirees do not want to be “put out to pasture”! They just want to live in a safe environment where it is easier to seize all the opportunities that life continues to offer! Seniors want to choose the ways they use their energy! Period.
In addition to monthly home maintenance, you may need some remodeling work done to accommodate different needs during your Senior years. Plan ahead so the remodel changes are in place when you need them. Life is fragile and offers surprises. Make changes in your home before those changes are needed. You’ll be glad for this proactive decision and the positive impact it will have on your future. Bradford Homes™ is ready to join you in making the retirement years safe in an environment that best suits you and your dreams for the future. Be sure to also check out our Senior Solutions page!
Times have changed! Family lifestyles have changed! No longer do most professionals work 8 – 5. No longer is it taken for granted that one parent stays home to manage the biggest investment of a lifetime…your home. The vast majority of families are experiencing the challenge of balancing LOTS of professional hours with LOTS of family hours. Kids are in the car headed to a zillion commitments. Parents are the taxi drivers. Aging parents need more and more of your purposeful care. Worthy organizations plead for volunteers. Life can be hectic!
And, truth told, regular home maintenance just keeps hammering (sorry, couldn’t resist!) for attention. When these battles for your time collide, hand part of the struggle over to BHC. Let us help with the obvious………..let us be your one-stop home maintenance provider. Hand that stress off to us. Take this newly found time to spend with your family, your community, and your professional goals. It’s sorta like living in a condo, but you’ve still got your home, your neighbors, your outdoor space………..your preferred lifestyle! The only difference? You don’t have to do all the home maintenance. You’ve just bought the luxury of some help. Much needed help. “Whew! Feels like a very smart decision for my family.” Right. Very smart decision.

** What happens if the assessment reveals need for repair(s)? Should need for repair(s) be found during the assessment (2 times a year), at the Home Owner’s direction, BHC will contract all necessary work to be done. (One Stop Maintenance!) If any home maintenance issues arise before the next scheduled assessment, call us and BHC will promptly schedule an appointment to look at the questionable situation. (One phone call gets the job done!) Any repair/remodel work will, of course, be charged according to the needs of that particular project. Prior to any work being done, all repair/remodel work will be priced, in writing, for the Home Owner’s approval, except in extreme circumstances when we’ll ‘agree on the spot’ because work must be done immediately. Otherwise, the necessary work will be scheduled and completed according to written agreement between the Home Owner and BHC.
