Welcome to HIA

Supporting the Provision of Safer Homes

Many households aren’t equipped for every eventuality.  The NHS recognises this issue and often refer people for home adaptation assessments.  The Home Improvement Assistance Package is designed to help you and your loved ones enjoy easy movement and use of your home, through our self-funded scheme.  Whether it be adapted front or garden steps and ramps to handrails for easy access, bathroom remodelling, or simply a survey of your home to assess its current safety, HIA can make life easier and help you to regain that priceless freedom and enjoyment of your home.

A little about us

We believe that everyone should have the same opportunity to live comfortably and independently. More than this though, we also understand that to do so, you need services and service providers that you can trust. That’s why, at every level of Home Improvement Assistance, we put your needs front and centre of everything we do. From providing advice and support to getting a real appreciation of your individual needs, and designing the ideal solution to your most challenging problems at home, we are dedicated to your independence.

All of our staff are DBS checked, come equipped with the necessary qualifications, accreditations and experience in their field, and undergo regular safeguarding training as standard. To ensure that all of our work is carried out to the highest of standards, we also regularly assess what we’ve done, and seek feedback from the most important people of all – you and your loved ones.
