Working in South Croydon
As well as South Croydon itself (CR0, CR2 and CR9), we survey in Croydon, Purley and Carshalton.
London homes in South Croydon often mean stairs, permits and neighbours below; we plan the logistics as carefully as the bathroom. If your South Croydon bathroom is upstairs on timber joists, we check them before promising a fully level floor. If you are applying to your council for a grant, we provide an itemised written quote for your South Croydon home to go with the application.
Water across much of Greater London is very hard. If your supply in South Croydon 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
- Slip-resistant floor tiles or safety flooring that grips when wet
- A home survey of how the room is used now and what needs to change, including door width and turning space
- 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
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.
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.
