Which towns do we cover in Clwyd?
Supplies across most of Clwyd are moderately hard. A quick wipe of the glass and an easy-clean coating are worth having on a new shower in Wrexham. Hardness varies street by street, so check the figure for your postcode with your water supplier. If your Wrexham bathroom is upstairs on timber joists, we check them before promising a fully level floor.
What the job includes
- Removal of the bath and a level-access or low-profile shower in its place, or a full level-floor wet room
- A fold-down shower seat and grab rails fixed into solid wall or timber backing fitted behind the boards
- Slip-resistant floor tiles or safety flooring that grips when wet
- A home survey of how the room is used now and what needs to change, including door width and turning space
- Lever taps, contrasting colours for rails and fittings, and good lighting for people with low vision
- A basin set at a height that suits sitting or standing
Decisions to make first
Colour contrast
Contrast between floor, walls, rails and the WC seat makes the room easier to use for people with sight loss or dementia.
Screen or curtain
A half-height or folding screen lets a carer help without getting soaked. A weighted curtain is easier than glass for some people to move.
Seat
A wall-mounted fold-down seat saves space and stays put. A freestanding shower stool is portable but takes floor space and can shift.
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 Wales
Building work to adapt a home for a disabled person can be zero-rated for VAT under HMRC VAT Notice 701/7. It is not means-tested; the person signs an eligibility declaration before work starts. Disabled Facilities Grants and similar schemes are means-tested and need council approval before any work begins. All electrics must meet BS 7671, with 30 mA RCD protection on every circuit.
In Wales, Disabled Facilities Grants of up to £36,000 are applied for through your local council. The Welsh Part P has a wider list of notifiable electrical work than England.
