Working in Nairn

We work right across Nairn — IV12 — and in neighbouring Forres and Inverness.

Being a smaller town does not change how we work in Nairn: free survey, written quote, one team. If you are planning ahead in Nairn rather than reacting to a fall, a low-profile shower and hidden rail backing can go in now and be added to later. If you are applying to your council for a grant, we provide an itemised written quote for your Nairn home to go with the application.

Supplies across most of the Highlands and Islands are soft. If that holds for your street in Nairn, limescale on shower glass and heads builds up slowly and a squeegee after use is usually enough. Hardness varies street by street, so check the figure for your postcode with your water supplier.

What the job includes

Removal of the bath and a level-access or low-profile shower in its place, or a full level-floor wet room
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
A thermostatic shower valve, so the temperature stays safe and steady

Decisions to make first

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.

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 Scotland

Scotland does not have Disabled Facilities Grants. Councils run a Scheme of Assistance instead, which can help with adaptations, so contact your council before planning the work. A building warrant may be needed if the drainage is altered for a level-access floor.

More about accessible bathrooms

Accessible bathrooms in Nairn: questions

How much does an accessible bathroom cost in Nairn?

An accessible bathroom in Nairn usually costs £5,800–£13,500 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 Nairn 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 IV12 in Nairn?

Yes. We cover all of Nairn, including IV12, and nearby Forres, Inverness and Elgin. Survey visits are free and arranged at a time that suits you.

Is the water hard in Nairn?

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.
