As more Americans choose to remain in their homes through retirement and beyond, the importance of safe, accessible, and age-friendly home design continues to grow. Aging in place—living in your home safely and independently as you get older—is not only possible, it’s often the preferred option for older adults who want to stay close to their families, memories, and community.
At Lindee Construction, we believe your home should grow with you. That’s why Frank Hinck, Owner of Lindee Construction, is proud to be Certified Aging-in-Place Specialist (CAPS)—bringing a unique combination of craftsmanship, care, and expertise to every remodeling or new construction project we touch.
Here are the top reasons why working with Lindee Construction’s CAPS-certified professionals is a smart investment in your home and your future:
1. Specialized Knowledge in Aging-Friendly Design
Frank Hinck and his team at Lindee Construction have undergone CAPS training to understand the physical, sensory, and cognitive changes that come with aging. They don’t just install features like grab bars—they design homes that reduce risk, support independence, and feel good to live in.
That means curbless showers, wide doorways, lever-style handles, smart home technology, and thoughtful lighting. These aren’t just upgrades—they’re life-enhancing modifications, designed with both form and function in mind.
2. Personalized Home Assessments
One of the greatest strengths of working with Lindee Construction is the personalized approach that Frank Hinck brings to each project. No two clients are alike, and neither are their homes or health needs.
Whether it’s a homeowner planning for the future or someone with a chronic condition like Parkinson’s or arthritis, Lindee Construction conducts thorough, on-site evaluations. We identify obstacles and opportunities, listen to your concerns, and develop a tailored plan that fits your current lifestyle and future mobility goals.
3. Safety-First Remodeling That Prevents Injuries
Falls are a leading cause of injury for seniors, and many of them are preventable with the right design. Lindee Construction uses its CAPS expertise to eliminate common household hazards.
From slip-resistant flooring to improved task lighting and accessible bathrooms, every decision is made with safety in mind. Our goal is to help you avoid the costly and traumatic consequences of a fall, while making your home a place of comfort and confidence.
4. Long-Term Savings and Peace of Mind
Hiring a CAPS-certified contractor like Lindee Construction isn’t just the safe choice—it’s the smart financial choice. Assisted living and long-term care facilities can cost thousands of dollars per month. Investing in strategic modifications now can allow you to avoid—or significantly delay—those expenses.
Frank Hinck believes in doing it right the first time. His team uses high-quality materials and durable designs that stand the test of time, helping clients age in place gracefully and affordably.
5. Maintaining Independence and Dignity
Few things are more important to aging adults than maintaining their independence. Lindee Construction helps you do just that—by making your home easier to navigate, more functional, and fully supportive of your lifestyle.
Whether that means lowering countertop heights, building in-seat showers, or installing motion-activated lighting, Frank and his team prioritize your self-sufficiency and dignity, allowing you to continue doing the things you love in the place you love most—your home.
6. Certified, Ethical, and Trustworthy Professionals
The CAPS designation is a mark of distinction that requires formal education, continuing training, and a commitment to ethical standards. At Lindee Construction, we take that responsibility seriously.
Frank Hinck and his crew are not just builders—they’re trusted partners who are deeply committed to the health, comfort, and happiness of every client. With Lindee, you’re not just getting a contractor—you’re gaining an advocate who understands your needs and respects your goals.
7. Collaborative Care Approach
We know that aging-in-place solutions often involve more than just construction—they require coordination with caregivers, healthcare providers, and family members.
Lindee Construction works closely with occupational therapists, physicians, and other professionals to ensure your home meets your unique medical and functional requirements. This holistic approach makes the difference between a quick fix and a lasting solution.
8. Increased Home Value and Market Appeal
In today’s real estate market, homes with aging-in-place features are in growing demand. Whether you’re planning to live in your home for decades or considering its resale value, Lindee Construction’s upgrades—like zero-step entries, accessible kitchens, or smart home automation—add serious long-term value.
By working with a CAPS-certified contractor like Frank Hinck, you can rest assured that the improvements are not just functional, but beautifully integrated into your home’s overall design.
At Lindee Construction, we believe that aging in place should be empowering—not limiting. With the right home environment, designed by a Certified Aging-in-Place Specialist, you or your loved ones can live safely, comfortably, and independently for years to come.
