Mike and Brandon were great to work with through the whole process. From the first meeting, I had comfort that they knew how to build a new, safe environment for my husband in our home while maintaining / matching the style and feel of our home! Highly recommend Lakeshore Barrier Free!

Brianna V.
Best remodel experience ever! They took a very stressful, horrible experience with another contractor and turned it into an amazing experience. Their workmanship is top-notch. They were so easy to work with! We were included in all the decisions from beginning to end. They always listened to our concerns and ideas and never treated me as a handicapped person.

They arrived on time. The ramp was completed. It looks and works great. I wish I didn't need it, but I am so grateful that Lakeshore could help me out.
