Verified record
Accessible Solutions is the accessibility-remodeling brand of Wood Wise Construction Inc., run out of Andover by Debbie Chesbrough (reviewers also name Jim Chesbrough and builder Jeff Koss of partner firm Uprise Builders). The specialty is narrow and consistent across every review on file: converting standard bathrooms into walk-in and roll-in showers, and building out bedrooms and baths for wheelchair users, with Debbie handling design and project coordination. The written record runs from 2022 through late 2025 — nine reviews across Google and the Better Business Bureau, all positive, and a BBB profile showing no complaints or government actions since the company's accreditation began in 2013. Specifics repeat: a bathtub-to-walk-in-shower conversion finished on time with minimal disruption in a July 2025 review, a handicap-friendly home remodel described as guided "every step of the way" in an October 2024 review, and — the most involved job on file — a 2022 review describing a roll-in shower installed for a wheelchair-bound man moving into a New Hampshire condo, where Debbie coordinated between the customer's family, the product manufacturer, condo management, a general contractor, and two plumbers to get it done. A couple of things are worth confirming directly. Houzz lists a construction supervisor licence (CS 0446627) and a home improvement contractor registration (HIC 115815) for the company, but that's the directory's own listing, not an independent verification. And the company's age is described two different ways across sources: the Better Business Bureau and Houzz both put the underlying construction business, Wood Wise Construction, at around 47 years old, while the company's own website claims 37 years of experience — worth asking which figure they'd stand behind. For an accessible-bathroom or aging-in-place project, this is a specialist with a clean multi-year BBB record and a demonstrated ability to manage complicated, multi-party installs. Confirm current licence status and get a firm project cost — Houzz lists a typical job in the $18,000–$75,000 range — before committing.

Accessible Solutions and Uprise Builders are fantastic! A+++. We had our bathroom remodeled. Debbie Chesbrough, owner of Accessible Solutions is a delight to work with. Her experience and guidance with the design helped tremendously. Communication was excellent. Jeff and his company, Uprise Builders, is the best contractor / team we have ever worked with. The quality of the work is outstanding, his communication excellent, always on time. His team always cleaned up at the end of each day, respecting our home by covering floors and putting up dust barriers. At the end of the project, he even has a cleaning crew come in. I will definitely use Accessible Solutions & Uprise Builders for any future renovations.
We are very pleased with the services provided by Accessible Solutions and Uprise Builders. Debbie and Jeff did a wonderful job converting our bathtub into a walk-in shower. The job was done on time with minimal disruption. The staff was professional and easy to communicate with. We highly recommend them.
The key ingredients that make Accessible Solutions and Uprise Builders a sublime partnership in collaboration with homeowners are clear communication and prompt follow-through. Their attention to detail, precision, and quality of work are displayed in all aspects of the project. In the beginning, we designed a plan together, complete with drawings and text, that was created from multiple in-person, phone, text/email brainstorming sessions. Before any payment was made, those hours invested set the tone for the big renovation project - accessible bedroom, bathroom, and vertical platform lift! It also laid the groundwork for exchanging ideas with respectful guidance given their expertise in the area. It is to be expected that with any large renovation project, especially with an old house, unexpected twists and turns as well as uncontrollable delays arise. But progress on our construction moved forward smoothly because of their experience anticipating such moments, appropriately pivoting and sharing decision making. They were very sensitive to our son’s challenges and his extensive support needs. They also demonstrated overall genuine care and compassion for his condition. AS and UB stayed within their budget, made changes in writing when necessary, were clean and neat on the job site, and completed the project within the general anticipated time frame (can’t help some delays outside their control). While we were under construction, three of our friends were doing renovations with other service providers. And all we ever heard from them were classic horror stories. But not us! We ended up with a beautiful and successful finish, as well as the bonus of a very warm relationship with two wonderful people. 5 stars! - Nancy & Gordon
We are deeply grateful to Debbie Chesbrough and Jeffrey Koss of the Accessible Solutions team for designing and delivering our home remodeling project on time and with great quality. Deb guided us every step of the way on how to make our home handicap friendly without compromising its aesthetics. She and Jeff helped plan the project meticulously, always seeking and incorporating our inputs. They were empathetic and flexible throughout the process, as our own thought process evolved on what was needed. The onsite construction team that Jeff assembled was professional and courteous. While there were the usual minor delays that a project like this will encounter, they were mostly due to delays in inspections or supply of parts. Deb and Jeff did everything in their power to have the project completed on time. I have nothing but high praise for Accessible Solutions and Uprise Builders. Deb and Jeff are not just top professionals but also great human beings. We were lucky to find them in our hour of dire need.
Worked with Debbie at Accessible Solutions on the re-design of my bathroom for wheelchair access. She was extremely helpful throughout the design and communicated every step along the way. I would highly recommend her to anyone needed help with hcap access.
