WHAT IS CERTIFIED AGING IN PLACE?
The Certified Aging in Place Specialist (CAPS) designation is used to identify professionals who have been be specifically trained in the technology, tools, and resources to help older adults and those with physical challenges to continue living safely, comfortably and independently in their homes. For example, we understand how to modify your kitchen and bathrooms to allow ease of access and safety for someone using a walker or wheelchair. This might include a zero clearance threshold into the shower, installation of grab bars in various locations, widening of doorways, as well as modifying vanities & cabinetry and replacing/relocating appliances to make them more accessible. In addition, the ideas of Universal Design are implemented to create spaces that may be used by multi-generational families and/or to provide updates that make a home “aging-ready.” Universal Design and Aging in Place principles not only transform the home you love into a life-long home, but also may make your house more marketable for future sale because it is suitable for people of various ages and physical challenges.

TESTIMONIALS
After using Lionheart Redesigns, I will never use anyone else again. Matt was able to coordinate all the professionals who needed to be there, at the correct times, and they all were able to do the job that others told me couldn't be done. They were all honest and truly cared about doing the job they proposed. I received good advice from Matt and he stayed within my budget. The work was finished above my expectations. I am confident referring Lionheart Redesigns, as I believe their work is consistently outstanding.
Matt was very patient and thorough with his approach. It made us feel like we all were on the same page. When you have several workers in your own home, you want to feel you can trust them. We had that feeling for the whole project period. We felt that they had our best interests at heart. They did, and their work reflected that.
Absolutely delighted with the work product by Lionheart Redesigns! From the outset, Matt provided guidance in selecting materials, contracts were prepared, and everything accomplished in a professional manner. Not only did Matt finish the job as contracted, he added several small finishing touches over and above contract requirements that really enhanced the overall project. The work was excellent, on time, and with minimum disruption to us. One of the nicest touches was communication. Carol kept us updated as to work schedules, materials selection, and anything involving the project. This made it very simple for us to plan our days. I would highly recommend this company for your redesigns!
Not only did Matt prove to be extremely talented but is dependable and trustworthy. In fact, when he raised the ceiling in the kitchen, we gave him a key and he worked while we took a vacation. Not once did we worry about anything concerning the project or our house. We would definitely recommend Matt highly and use him again.
We were nervous about finding someone who would understand what we were looking for and someone who could meet our budget and schedule. Matt Lenhard of Lionheart Redesigns did just that. He listened. He understood what we wanted and went above and beyond in managing the project all along the way. Matt Lenhard has a fan in us for life. We have happily referred him and he has delivered the same for our friends and neighbors. You could not find a more trustworthy and hard-working person.
Working with Matt was a joy! The entire experience from start to finish was filled with integrity, creative ideas yet not pushy, easy to work with, clean/neat job site on a daily basis, high quality workmanship, and his crew was a reflection of him and his high standards! I will use Matt again and highly recommend him and his work!
He stayed on schedule, minimized disruptions and stayed within the budget so we ended up with a beautiful, perfect house and with no surprises at the end. Matt is a talented professional and visionary and we will call him if we ever decide to make more changes or additions to our house. He made us customers for life and we highly recommend Lionheart Redesigns.
We were absolutely thrilled with the new tile in both bathrooms, and very happy with the complete rebuild of the master bath shower. My wife was very happy, which meant we were all happy!
The whole project was completed on time and on budget with great care and consideration to the family’s needs in the house – a quality job with a human touch for sure. Lionheart Redesigns comes completely recommended by this home owner with zero reservations. If you want it done right, hire Matt!
Matt had so many great ideas and listened to what we really wanted in our bathroom and didn't try to push for things we didn't want. There were no surprises along the way and the project stayed on budget. The whole remodel went very smoothly and I loved the organization and attention to detail Matt and his crew had. We knew at the start of each week what to expect and what days there would be workers in the house which was really nice with a busy family schedule. Carol was wonderful when we sent questions and always answered very timely. We have referred friends to them and will definitely use them again. We have nothing but great things to say about Matt & Carol, their work ethic and the work completed.
We have used Matt and Lionheart Redesigns on several occasions which have included a full range of projects from small to large, both interior and exterior. We have always been very pleased with the final result and the attention to detail Matt and his team deliver. Another thing we get from Lionheart Redesigns is trusted advice both going in and during the project. Said simply we trust Matt, Carol, and the entire team and know we will use them again.
Excellent work. Matt and his team delivered more than we expected. He had the vision to help us get the project we wanted but didn’t have the vision to see without him. Highly recommended.
Lionheart did several projects for me and they were fantastic to work with and creative in solving a vexing problem I had with my outdoor gazebo. Smart, skilled and friendly people with fair and reasonable prices.
