Working in Chesterfield
We work right across Chesterfield — S40 and S41 — and in neighbouring Staveley and Dronfield.
Chesterfield has a wide mix of house ages, so the survey is where we spot old lead pipework, weak joists or a tight soil stack. We can work alongside an occupational therapist assessment for your Chesterfield home, so the rails and seat go where they are needed. If you are applying to your council for a grant, we provide an itemised written quote for your Chesterfield home to go with the application.
Water across much of Derbyshire is moderately hard. A quick wipe of the glass and an easy-clean coating are worth having on a new shower in Chesterfield. 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
- Lever taps, contrasting colours for rails and fittings, and good lighting for people with low vision
- Slip-resistant floor tiles or safety flooring that grips when wet
- A basin set at a height that suits sitting or standing
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 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.
