Working in Kingswood

We cover every part of Kingswood, including BS15, BS16 and GL12, and nearby Mangotsfield (2.4 miles) and Keynsham (2.7 miles).

Homes in and around Kingswood vary, so we look at the floor, the walls and the water system before we price anything. We can work alongside an occupational therapist assessment for your Kingswood 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 Kingswood home to go with the application.

Most of Gloucestershire has hard water. If your supply in Kingswood 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 fold-down shower seat and grab rails fixed into solid wall or timber backing fitted behind the boards
Electrics by a qualified electrician, tested and certified, and an itemised quote you can give to a grant officer
Lever taps, contrasting colours for rails and fittings, and good lighting for people with low vision
A comfort-height WC, with support rails where needed

Decisions to make first

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.

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.

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.

More about accessible bathrooms

Accessible bathrooms in Kingswood: questions

What is the price of an accessible bathroom in Kingswood?

An accessible bathroom in Kingswood usually costs £6,100–£14,250 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.

Is the home survey in Kingswood really free?

Yes. We visit, measure the room, check the pipework, drainage and electrics, and talk through what you want. You then get a written, itemised quote with no obligation to go ahead.

Do you cover BS15 in Kingswood?

Yes. We cover all of Kingswood, including BS15, BS16 and GL12, and nearby Mangotsfield, Keynsham and Bishopsworth. Survey visits are free and arranged at a time that suits you.

Is the water hard in Kingswood?

Can you fit a level-access shower upstairs?

Yes. On a timber floor, the joists are checked and a shower former is set down into the floor so the finished surface is level with the rest of the room. Where the joists run the wrong way or cannot be cut, a very low-profile tray with a gentle ramp is the alternative.
