TESTIMONIALS
What Our Clients Are Saying
Tony and his team did such great job building my back porch and ramp for my LO who's handicapped. They saved the day after a company I hired did a horrible job. Tony was honest and professional with me showed me what work within my budget. I will definitely call TCP for future home improvements.
This has been a very stressful situation getting a lift approved for my daughter but Tony from TCP has been a true professional in getting the lift installed quickly. The first one was installed and had to be replaced. The second was installed in one day. It has been a pleasure working with this company and will highly recommend
Tony and his team did an amazing job building my ramp! It went up quickly, in less than a week, and the construction is thorough, good looking, and sturdy. Tony is kind, flexible, and accommodating of any needs, questions, or ideas you have for any project he's working on with you. 10/10 would recommend! :)

TCP did a great job installing a wheelchair ramp in the garage for my Mom, great communication with office, scheduling, and installer. Thank you.
I can’t say enough wonderful things about TCP. Tony and his group are very skilled, top notch in all they do and extremely kind. For this project, I could not use a regular tub and shower...So they installed a walk-in Tub. Look at this fantastic design. They transformed our old bathroom into a beautiful and Accessible Safe bathroom..With great detail & design.. Thank you!
Pristine craftsmanship as well as professional It was a true pleasure and this has made my home easier to be more mobile and accessible Thank you TCP Building Corp
TCP Building Corp contractors have been doing renovations/modifications on my home and all I can say is WOW! They have worked very fast and done a great job at the same time. We appreciated how well they communicated throughout the whole process. Before starting the day, they made sure to keep us informed on what work would be done which made it much easier for us to prepare rooms or move things around as needed. We love the new renovations and highly recommended using TCP if you get the chance to!
I reached out to Thony regarding a potential project to work which would improve resources to the community & he directed me to valuable resources which will likely save me from spending hundred thousands of dollars. It's almost unheard of from the construction industry. AAA class service!!! I highly recommend TCP Builders Inc.
This company built a handicap bathroom for us which came out beautiful. We are very happy with the installation team. I would use them again.
Very nice job installing a shower that is handicap accessible for me so I can enter it with my wheelchair. Looks great. Works great.

What Is Accessibility Construction & Why Is It Important?
It means changing your home so it works for how you actually live. One fall, one diagnosis, one surgery and your home stops working for you. Accessibility construction in Needham, MA covers every change that makes it safe again.
Wheelchair Ramps Built to Code
A wheelchair ramp has to have the right slope, proper landings, and solid handrails. We build with wood, aluminum, and modular materials based on your entry and driveway setup.
Bathroom Safety and Accessible Showers
Slippery tile, high tub walls, no grab bars, the bathroom is where most home injuries happen. We do walk-in shower conversions, comfort-height toilets, and grab bars anchored into studs, not just drywall.
Stair Lifts and Platform Lifts
Stairs cut people off from parts of their own home. A stair lift or platform elevator lift brings that access back and your confidence with it.
Doorway Widening
Standard doors are too narrow for a wheelchair. We widen to ADA width and remove thresholds that catch wheels or create trip hazards.
Entryways and Outdoor Accessibility
We build entryways, outdoor stairs, patios, and curb transitions that hold up through Massachusetts winters. Freeze-thaw cycles and snow load matter here.
Kitchen and Living Space Modifications
Counter heights, clearance space, and cabinet reach, we adjust living spaces and kitchen layouts so someone using a wheelchair can move and work freely through the whole home.
Does Any of This Sound Familiar?
If your home is not keeping up with your needs, you are not alone. Most homeowners in Needham don't realize how many small barriers exist until someone in the house actually needs to move around safely. Here are the problems we hear about most.
Your Front Door Has Steps
That one step at the front door seems small. But for someone using a wheelchair or walker, it is a full stop. Getting in and out of your own home should not require help every single time.
Your Bathroom Feels Like a Hazard
No grab bars. High tub walls. A slippery tile floor. Most bathrooms in older Needham homes were never built with safety in mind. One bad step there can cause serious damage.
Your Doorways Are Too Tight
Standard door frames run 28 to 30 inches. A wheelchair needs at least 32, ideally 36. That gap stops people from moving freely through their own home.
Getting Between Floors Is Getting Harder
Stairs become a daily risk faster than most people expect. When someone is stuck on one floor of their own home, independence shrinks fast.
You're Not Sure What's Up to Code
Massachusetts has specific rules around ramp slopes, handrail heights, and construction standards. Most homeowners have no reason to know them until something goes wrong.
Your Home Doesn't Fit Your Life Anymore
A fall, a diagnosis, a surgery. The house stayed the same. That gap between your home and your needs is exactly what accessibility construction in Needham, MA is built to close.
Accessibility Services We Build in Needham and Greater Boston
Here is what we actually build and when you need it. Access Care Construction handles every type of accessibility project, from a single grab bar to a full home modification. Every job gets the same attention, no matter the size.
Custom Wheelchair Ramps
We build wheelchair ramps from wood, aluminium, and modular materials. Every ramp gets the right slope no steeper than 1:12 per Massachusetts code, with proper landings at the top and bottom, solid handrails on both sides, and driveway and curb transitions where needed.
Vertical Platform Lifts
A platform lift moves straight up and down. It works well for porches, split-level entries, and low-rise floor changes. If a ramp does not fit the space, a lift usually will.
Stair Lift Installation
A rail mounts directly to the staircase. You sit, press a button, and you are at the top or bottom, with no effort, no risk. We install on both straight and curved staircases.
ADA-Compliant Bathroom Modifications
This is one of our most common requests. We do tub-to-shower and roll-in shower conversions, grab bars anchored into studs, and comfort-height toilets. We also handle tile and walk-in layouts built for wheelchair clearance and full layout changes when the room needs it.
Doorway Widening and Threshold Adjustments
We widen doors to ADA width and remove or reduce thresholds that catch wheels or create trip hazards. Simple change. Big difference.
Accessible Entryway Construction
A ramp alone is not always enough. We build full entryways with landing space that meets code, proper lighting, weather cover for New England conditions, and door configurations that make getting in and out easy every time.
Why This Work Needs a Professional
Cut corners here, and someone gets hurt, or you end up with an unpermitted build. Massachusetts has clear rules for this type of work. Most homeowners don't know them until something goes wrong. Here is what actually matters.
Massachusetts Code Requirements
Ramps cannot be steeper than 1:12, one inch of rise for every twelve inches of run. Handrails must sit between 34 and 38 inches. Landings need to meet minimum size requirements at the top and bottom. All work must be permitted and inspected before it is considered done.
What Happens When It's Done Wrong
Grab bars not anchored into studs pull straight out of the wall when someone actually leans on them. The wrong ramp slope does not fix anything; it just creates a different fall risk. Unpermitted work can block a home sale or void an insurance claim. And bad work means tearing it all out and starting over at full cost.
What Working With Us Looks Like
Every project starts with a visit to your home, not a guess. We look at the actual space, listen to what is not working, and build a plan from there. Here is how the process goes from start to finish.
01
Home Visit
We come to your home first. We look at the floor plan, entry points, bathroom, and stairs wherever the issue is. We listen before we recommend anything.
02
Plan and Permits
We put together a clear plan and handle all permits and inspections. You will always know what we are building, why, and when.
03
Construction
We build to code, on schedule, and with clear communication at every stage. No surprises.
04
Final Walkthrough
When the job is done, we walk through the finished work with you. We explain everything. And if a question comes up after we leave, you can still call us.

FAQs
Frequently Asked Questions
Do I need a permit for a wheelchair ramp in Massachusetts?
Yes, in most towns. We handle all permits and inspections. You do not have to figure it out yourself.
How long does accessibility construction take?
Grab bars take a day. Wheelchair ramp installs and lifts usually take one to two weeks, depending on the job.
Can you modify a bathroom without tearing it all out?
Yes. Grab bars, tub-to-shower conversion, and layout adjustments, none of that requires a full renovation. We work with what is already there when we can.
What is the best time of year to build a ramp in Massachusetts?
Spring and fall are easiest. But we work year-round and plan around New England weather, so delays stay minimal.
Do you work with MassHealth or state assistance programs?
Yes. We provide all documentation needed for MassHealth, the Mass Rehab Commission, and the home modification loan program. We know what HMLP applications require.
Will this lower my home's value?
No. Done right, it adds value. Aging-in-place features are a real selling point right now, especially in towns like Needham and Newton.
