Working in Omagh

In Omagh we cover BT78 and BT79; we also cover Strabane, 16.9 miles away, and Enniskillen.

Being a smaller town does not change how we work in Omagh: free survey, written quote, one team. If someone in your Omagh 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 Omagh home, so the rails and seat go where they are needed.

Water across much of County Tyrone is soft. If that holds for your street in Omagh, 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

A comfort-height WC, with support rails where needed
A home survey of how the room is used now and what needs to change, including door width and turning space
Electrics by a qualified electrician, tested and certified, and an itemised quote you can give to a grant officer
A fold-down shower seat and grab rails fixed into solid wall or timber backing fitted behind the boards

Decisions to make first

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.

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.

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.

More about accessible bathrooms

Accessible bathrooms in Omagh: questions

What is the price of an accessible bathroom in Omagh?

An accessible bathroom in Omagh usually costs £5,300–£12,250 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.

Do you cover BT78 and BT79 in Omagh?

Yes. We cover all of Omagh, including BT78 and BT79, and nearby Strabane, Enniskillen and Cookstown. Survey visits are free and arranged at a time that suits you.

Is the water hard in Omagh?

Does an accessible bathroom in Omagh need building control approval?

Building control in Omagh is run by the local district council. Where approval is needed, for example for new drainage, we tell you at the survey and handle it as part of the job.

Do I pay VAT on a disabled bathroom?

Often not. Building work to adapt a home for a disabled person, such as converting a bath to a level-access shower, can be zero-rated under HMRC VAT Notice 701/7. It is not means-tested; the person, or someone on their behalf, signs an eligibility declaration. We go through which items qualify with you before quoting.
