Grab bars, handrails, stair treads and trip hazard fixes for families, seniors, landlords and rental owners, as a one-time visit or a recurring plan.
Safety and accessibility updates are handyman-level installs that make a home safer to get around in, including grab bars, handrails, stair treads, trip hazard repairs, anti-tip furniture anchors and baby gates. Grab bars and rails are fixed into studs or proper structural anchors, not drywall alone. Clean Corps is a veteran-owned handyman and property maintenance company serving Horizon West and the wider Orlando area. Call (407) 638-8956 or request service online.
About Horizon West: Horizon West is an unincorporated, master-planned area of southwest Orange County, laid out under a county plan on former citrus land as a set of villages around a Town Center. It has grown quickly, and its housing includes single-family homes, townhomes and condos.
A handrail is the part of a staircase people stop noticing until it moves. Big front porches are common in Horizon West, according to the county, which often means steps between the porch and the door, and its profile also names condos, townhomes and duplexes, so the steps, stairs and tubs that need something solid to hold vary from home to home. Where a home has a second level, that adds a full run of stairs.
A staircase is safer with a handrail on the open side, often a second continuous rail on the wall side, non-slip treads where the edges are slick, and baby gates at the upper and lower ends. Tall dressers and bookcases can be anchored to the wall. Grab bar anchoring is simpler where a stud or solid backing can be found behind the tile or drywall, and Clean Corps will say so if a wall cannot take a bar where you want it.
Look over the steps and stairs first and note which have no rail, a wobbly one or worn treads. Photos of both ends of each flight help, as does the wall behind a shower where a bar is wanted. When it is unclear what a person needs, a healthcare provider or occupational therapist is the one to ask. Families planning ahead can read aging in place home safety.

Into wall studs or into solid backing with proper structural anchors, depending on how the wall is built. Wall construction varies from home to home, so the method changes. Clean Corps will tell you if a wall cannot take a bar where you want it.
Threshold ramps are on the service list, and they suit a raised door sill or a single low step. Long or permanent ramps are structural jobs outside this service. Check with your local building department or HOA before adding any ramp, especially one outside the house.
Yes. Landlords fit accessibility features on request, and vacation rental owners add grab bars and handrails to broaden who can comfortably book the property. Clean Corps can do it as a one-time visit or alongside a recurring monthly or quarterly plan.
Into a stud or solid backing found behind the tile or drywall. If a wall cannot take a bar where you want it, Clean Corps will say so. Send a photo of the wall and call (407) 638-8956, and mention whether the bar is for a shower or a tub.
Rails on steps and stairs are part of this service, fixed into solid framing or masonry anchors rather than trim alone. Whether a rail is required, or what it must look like, is a question for your local building department or HOA. Photos of the steps and posts help.
Gates usually go at the upper and lower ends of a flight, with hardware fixed into wall framing where it will hold. Which spots suit your stairs depends on the layout, so photos of both ends help. You can request service through the website or at (407) 638-8956.
