Working in Seaford

We cover every part of Seaford, including BN25, and nearby Peacehaven (5 miles) and Rottingdean (7.6 miles).

Seaford gets the same process as anywhere else: a free survey at your home and a written, itemised quote. For Seaford homes where the only toilet is in the bathroom, we plan the work so it stays usable for as much of the job as possible. We can work alongside an occupational therapist assessment for your Seaford home, so the rails and seat go where they are needed.

Supplies across most of East Sussex are hard. If your supply in Seaford is the same, limescale on shower glass and heads is a real issue: easy-clean glass, rub-clean nozzles and a squeegee make a big difference. Hardness varies street by street, so check the figure for your postcode with your water supplier.

What the job includes

A basin set at a height that suits sitting or standing
Lever taps, contrasting colours for rails and fittings, and good lighting for people with low vision
Electrics by a qualified electrician, tested and certified, and an itemised quote you can give to a grant officer
A home survey of how the room is used now and what needs to change, including door width and turning space

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.

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 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.

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.
