Working in Crowthorne

As well as Crowthorne itself (GU47, RG40 and RG45), we survey in Sandhurst, Yateley and Camberley.

Homes in and around Crowthorne vary, so we look at the floor, the walls and the water system before we price anything. If you are planning ahead in Crowthorne rather than reacting to a fall, a low-profile shower and hidden rail backing can go in now and be added to later. If your Crowthorne bathroom is upstairs on timber joists, we check them before promising a fully level floor.

Most of Berkshire has hard water. If your supply in Crowthorne is the same, limescale on shower glass and heads is a real issue: easy-clean glass, rub-clean nozzles and a squeegee make a big difference. Hardness varies street by street, so check the figure for your postcode with your water supplier.

What the job includes

A fold-down shower seat and grab rails fixed into solid wall or timber backing fitted behind the boards
Removal of the bath and a level-access or low-profile shower in its place, or a full level-floor wet room
A thermostatic shower valve, so the temperature stays safe and steady
A comfort-height WC, with support rails where needed

Decisions to make first

Rail positions

Rails go where you need support: beside the WC, at the shower entry and near the seat. We set heights with the user at the survey so they suit their reach.

Low tray or level floor

A low-profile tray with a very shallow lip suits someone who can step a little. A tiled level floor falling to a drain is needed for a wheelchair or wheeled shower chair.

Rules that apply in England

In England, a Disabled Facilities Grant from your local council can pay up to £30,000 towards adaptations such as a level-access shower. Fitting a new electric shower, or any other new circuit or wiring change in the bathroom, is notifiable under Part P.

More about accessible bathrooms

Accessible bathrooms in Crowthorne: questions

How much should I budget for an accessible bathroom in Crowthorne?

An accessible bathroom in Crowthorne usually costs £6,700–£15,750 including VAT. The final figure comes down to what you choose and what we find at the survey; your written quote lists every item so you can see where the money goes.

Is the home survey in Crowthorne really free?

Yes. We visit, measure the room, check the pipework, drainage and electrics, and talk through what you want. You then get a written, itemised quote with no obligation to go ahead.

Do you cover GU47 in Crowthorne?

Yes. We cover all of Crowthorne, including GU47, RG40 and RG45, and nearby Sandhurst, Yateley and Camberley. Survey visits are free and arranged at a time that suits you.

Is the water hard in Crowthorne?

Can you fit a level-access shower upstairs?

Yes. On a timber floor, the joists are checked and a shower former is set down into the floor so the finished surface is level with the rest of the room. Where the joists run the wrong way or cannot be cut, a very low-profile tray with a gentle ramp is the alternative.
