New Okotoks Company Aims to Keep Seniors in Their Homes

Farhan Ul-Haq wants to give Okotoks seniors peace of mind.

Ul-Haq has launched Okotoks Seniors Support, a home maintenance company exclusively for seniors that aims to reduce their stress and keep them in their homes longer.

A recent arrival from Toronto where he operated a similar business for two years, Ul-Haq said many seniors would prefer to stay in their own home as they age, but aren’t always able to maintain it.

“They don't really want to go to a retirement home or downsize, they want to stay in their own home, but it's just the home becomes a burden,” he said. “That's basically where Okotoks Seniors Support comes in, and we take that burden away. We take that stress away and we maintain it for them.”

The company offers a variety of services, everything from yard maintenance and snow removal to window washing and handyman jobs.
