Working in Bordon

We cover every part of Bordon, including GU35, and nearby Alton (5.5 miles) and Haslemere (6.9 miles).

Bordon gets the same process as anywhere else: a free survey at your home and a written, itemised quote. For Bordon 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. If you are applying to your council for a grant, we provide an itemised written quote for your Bordon home to go with the application.

Most of Hampshire has hard water. If your supply in Bordon 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
Slip-resistant floor tiles or safety flooring that grips when wet
Removal of the bath and a level-access or low-profile shower in its place, or a full level-floor wet room
A fold-down shower seat and grab rails fixed into solid wall or timber backing fitted behind the boards

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.

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 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 Bordon: questions

What is the price of an accessible bathroom in Bordon?

An accessible bathroom in Bordon usually costs £6,700–£15,750 including VAT. Expect the lower end for a like-for-like job with standard products, and the upper end if things move or you choose premium finishes. Your quote is itemised and fixed in writing once agreed.

Do you cover GU35 in Bordon?

Yes. We cover all of Bordon, including GU35, and nearby Alton, Haslemere and Farnham. Survey visits are free and arranged at a time that suits you.

Is the water hard in Bordon?

Who handles building control for an accessible bathroom in Bordon?

Building control for Bordon is handled by the local council or an approved inspector. If your job needs sign-off — for example a new circuit, new drainage or a new extractor where there was none — we tell you at the survey and handle the notification as part of the work.

Do I pay VAT on a disabled bathroom?

Often not. Building work to adapt a home for a disabled person, such as converting a bath to a level-access shower, can be zero-rated under HMRC VAT Notice 701/7. It is not means-tested; the person, or someone on their behalf, signs an eligibility declaration. We go through which items qualify with you before quoting.
