Working in Finchley

We cover every part of Finchley, including N2, N3 and N12, and nearby Muswell Hill (2.4 miles) and Cricklewood (3.2 miles).

London homes in Finchley often mean stairs, permits and neighbours below; we plan the logistics as carefully as the bathroom. If you are applying to your council for a grant, we provide an itemised written quote for your Finchley home to go with the application. If you are planning ahead in Finchley rather than reacting to a fall, a low-profile shower and hidden rail backing can go in now and be added to later.

Water across much of Greater London is very hard. If your supply in Finchley 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 thermostatic shower valve, so the temperature stays safe and steady
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
A basin set at a height that suits sitting or standing

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.

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.

Is the home survey in Finchley really free?

Do you cover N2 in Finchley?

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.
