Home Accessibility in Roseville, MN

Roseville has one of the highest concentrations of residents past 75 anywhere in the metro. More than 8,000 residents are 65 or older. We install throughout the city, from the ramblers near Lake Owasso to the homes around Har Mar and Rosedale.

Roseville has one of the metro’s highest concentrations of residents past 75

Roseville stands out for a particular reason: 12.2% of the city is aged 75 or over, one of the highest shares in the Twin Cities. That is a different profile from a city with a lot of newly retired residents. At 75-plus, accessibility work is usually prompted by something specific, a fall, a hospital discharge, a diagnosis, and the timeline is short.

We schedule with that in mind. Roseville is a first-ring suburb built mainly in the 1950s and 1960s, so the housing is ramblers and modest split-levels with original bathrooms and basement laundry. Those are well-understood problems with well-understood answers, which is why we can usually move quickly here.

What we install in Roseville

  • Stair lifts: for basement flights and split-level half-flights, straight or curved.
  • Wheelchair lifts: vertical platform lifts for raised entries, indoors and outdoors.
  • Home elevators: residential elevators where a full second level must stay in use.
  • Wheelchair ramps: aluminium modular ramps when the need is urgent, custom wood when there is time to match the house.
  • Accessible bathrooms: roll-in showers and tub-to-shower conversions in original 1950s and 1960s bathrooms.
  • Safety and access: grab bars, handrails and porch railings, often the first thing we fit after a fall.

Permitted, inspected, and done properly

Powered lifts and elevators are regulated equipment in Minnesota, not appliances you bolt down. Ocel Builders installs as a Minnesota Limited Elevator Contractor and holds a Minnesota Builders License, so the framing, the electrical coordination, the equipment and the inspection are handled by one accountable team in Ramsey County.

Frequently asked

Questions about home accessibility in roseville, mn

Do you cover all of Roseville?

Yes, all of Roseville and the surrounding Ramsey County communities, including the neighbourhoods around Lake Owasso, Lake Josephine and Central Park.

We need something fast after a hospital discharge. How quickly can you work?

Faster than most people expect. An aluminium modular ramp can often be installed within days, and grab bars sooner. A straight stair lift is usually quick too. Curved rails are custom-bent for your staircase and take longer.

Can you work with an occupational therapist's recommendations?

Yes, and we prefer it. If an OT has assessed the home and specified what is needed, bring us the report and we will build to it.
