Garden Suite Builder in Lindsay, ON

Henley Contracting is a garden suite builder in Lindsay for families who want an ageing parent close by and independent. Lindsay's older town lots are often deep enough for a single-level suite, and Ross Memorial Hospital and downtown services are nearby. We plan accessible garden suites that are easy to live in for years.

Garden suites for ageing in place in Lindsay

Staying in town matters as people get older: the doctor, the pharmacy and Ross Memorial Hospital are close, and family is near. A garden suite behind a son's or daughter's Lindsay home can make that possible without the stairs and upkeep of a full house.

We plan these suites for the long term. The kitchen has a lower work surface, the bathroom has room for a walker, and the entry has no steps, so the suite stays comfortable as needs change.

  • 01 / LEVEL ENTRY

    No steps from the walkway to the door.

  • 02 / REACHABLE KITCHEN

    A lower counter section and easy-reach storage.

  • 03 / ROOMY BATHROOM

    Space for a walker and a curbless shower.

  • 04 / CITY PERMITS

    Applications to the City of Kawartha Lakes.

Older Lindsay lots

Lindsay's older streets often have mature trees and narrow side yards. We plan access for construction and for daily life so the suite is easy to reach.

Support for caregivers

As needs change, family members or visiting caregivers may spend more time in the suite. We plan a spot for a second chair at the table, room beside the bed for assistance, and a bathroom where help can be given safely. Good storage for supplies and an entry wide enough for equipment make the suite easier to manage for everyone involved.
