Working in Lisburn

In Lisburn we cover BT17, BT26, BT27 and 1 more postcode districts; we also cover Belfast, 6.7 miles away, and Castlereagh.

Lisburn is a big place with every kind of home, from terraces to flats to new builds, so we never price from a photo alone. If someone in your Lisburn 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 Lisburn home, so the rails and seat go where they are needed.

Water across much of County Antrim is soft. If that holds for your street in Lisburn, limescale on shower glass and heads builds up slowly and a squeegee after use is usually enough. Hardness varies street by street, so check the figure for your postcode with your water supplier.

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 comfort-height WC, with support rails where needed
Lever taps, contrasting colours for rails and fittings, and good lighting for people with low vision
A thermostatic shower valve, so the temperature stays safe and steady

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.

Colour contrast

Contrast between floor, walls, rails and the WC seat makes the room easier to use for people with sight loss or dementia.

Rules that apply in Northern Ireland

In Northern Ireland, Disabled Facilities Grants of up to £25,000 are handled through the Housing Executive. Building control covers changes to drainage and ventilation, and wiring should follow BS 7671.

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.
