Working in Coleraine

We work right across Coleraine — BT51, BT52 and BT55 — and in neighbouring Limavady and Magherafelt.

Homes in and around Coleraine vary, so we look at the floor, the walls and the water system before we price anything. If someone in your Coleraine 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. If you are planning ahead in Coleraine rather than reacting to a fall, a low-profile shower and hidden rail backing can go in now and be added to later.

Supplies across most of County Londonderry are soft. If that holds for your street in Coleraine, 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

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
A thermostatic shower valve, so the temperature stays safe and steady
A comfort-height WC, with support rails where needed

Decisions to make first

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.

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 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.

Do you cover BT51 in Coleraine?

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.
