Hi, my mum who I live with has considered asking the council to come and put a hand rail down her front steps and back ones as she’s had a few falls (due to the fact she can’t feel her right foot due to neuropathy). However we are planning to put the house up for sale in the spring.
What I was wondering is if ppl think it will make the house look ugly and will it make it less desirable to sell? She seems to think it will but she is very restricted because of the steps and the onus is on me to help her up and down the steps all the time (and I’m partially sighted so no the most stable on my feet, I’ve fallen down the front steps twice!)
We can’t afford to pay for someone to come and put some nice hand rails down so the council would be our only option.
Thanks
