Working in Slough

We cover every part of Slough, including SL1, SL2 and SL3, and nearby Windsor (1.8 miles) and Maidenhead (5.4 miles).

Slough has a wide mix of house ages, so the survey is where we spot old lead pipework, weak joists or a tight soil stack. If someone in your Slough home is finding the bath hard to get in and out of, a level-access shower in the same space is usually the first option we look at. We can work alongside an occupational therapist assessment for your Slough home, so the rails and seat go where they are needed.

Water across much of Berkshire is hard. If your supply in Slough 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 basin set at a height that suits sitting or standing
Slip-resistant floor tiles or safety flooring that grips when wet
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

Decisions to make first

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.

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.

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 Slough: questions

How much does an accessible bathroom cost in Slough?

Is the home survey in Slough really free?

Do you cover SL1 in Slough?

Yes. We cover all of Slough, including SL1, SL2 and SL3, and nearby Windsor, Maidenhead and Gerrards Cross. Survey visits are free and arranged at a time that suits you.

What is the difference between an accessible bathroom and a wet room?

An accessible bathroom is defined by who it is for; a wet room is a way of building the floor. Many accessible bathrooms are built as wet rooms because a level, fully tanked floor removes every step. Others use a low-profile tray, which costs less and suits people who can manage a small lip.
