Working in Grangemouth
As well as Grangemouth itself (FK3), we survey in Falkirk, Alloa and Bathgate.
Being a smaller town does not change how we work in Grangemouth: free survey, written quote, one team. If someone in your Grangemouth 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 Grangemouth home, so the rails and seat go where they are needed.
Most of the Forth Valley is supplied with soft water. If that holds for your street in Grangemouth, 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 basin set at a height that suits sitting or standing
- A fold-down shower seat and grab rails fixed into solid wall or timber backing fitted behind the boards
- Removal of the bath and a level-access or low-profile shower in its place, or a full level-floor wet room
- Electrics by a qualified electrician, tested and certified, and an itemised quote you can give to a grant officer
Decisions to make first
Colour contrast
Contrast between floor, walls, rails and the WC seat makes the room easier to use for people with sight loss or dementia.
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.
Rules that apply in Scotland
Scotland does not have Disabled Facilities Grants. Councils run a Scheme of Assistance instead, which can help with adaptations, so contact your council before planning the work. A building warrant may be needed if the drainage is altered for a level-access floor.
