Working in Eastleigh

We cover every part of Eastleigh, including SO50 and SO53, and nearby Hedge End (4.3 miles) and Southampton (4.9 miles).

In Eastleigh, as anywhere, the age of the house decides a lot: pipe sizes, floor construction and where the soil stack runs. For Eastleigh 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 your Eastleigh bathroom is upstairs on timber joists, we check them before promising a fully level floor.

Supplies across most of Hampshire are hard. If your supply in Eastleigh 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
Lever taps, contrasting colours for rails and fittings, and good lighting for people with low vision
A home survey of how the room is used now and what needs to change, including door width and turning space
Slip-resistant floor tiles or safety flooring that grips when wet

Decisions to make first

Walk-in bath

A door or low-entry bath suits people who want to keep bathing, but you have to sit inside while it fills and drains.

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.

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.
