Working in Marlow

As well as Marlow itself (SL7), we survey in Maidenhead, High Wycombe and Slough.

Marlow gets the same process as anywhere else: a free survey at your home and a written, itemised quote. If your Marlow bathroom is upstairs on timber joists, we check them before promising a fully level floor. If you are planning ahead in Marlow rather than reacting to a fall, a low-profile shower and hidden rail backing can go in now and be added to later.

Most of Buckinghamshire has hard water. If your supply in Marlow 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

Lever taps, contrasting colours for rails and fittings, and good lighting for people with low vision
A comfort-height WC, with support rails where needed
Slip-resistant floor tiles or safety flooring that grips when wet
A thermostatic shower valve, so the temperature stays safe and steady

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.

Walk-in bath

A door or low-entry bath suits people who want to keep bathing, but you have to sit inside while it fills and drains.

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 Marlow: questions

What is the price of an accessible bathroom in Marlow?

An accessible bathroom in Marlow usually costs £6,700–£15,750 including VAT. Room size, layout changes and your choice of products move the figure within that range. The free survey gives you an itemised quote, fixed in writing once the details are agreed.

Is the home survey in Marlow 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 SL7 in Marlow?

Yes. We cover all of Marlow, including SL7, and nearby Maidenhead, High Wycombe and Slough. Survey visits are free and arranged at a time that suits you.

Is the water hard in Marlow?

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.
