Working in Broadstairs
As well as Broadstairs itself (CT10), we survey in Ramsgate, Margate and Deal.
Being a smaller town does not change how we work in Broadstairs: free survey, written quote, one team. If you are planning ahead in Broadstairs rather than reacting to a fall, a low-profile shower and hidden rail backing can go in now and be added to later. If your Broadstairs bathroom is upstairs on timber joists, we check them before promising a fully level floor.
Most of Kent has very hard water. If your supply in Broadstairs 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
- A basin set at a height that suits sitting or standing
- A comfort-height WC, with support rails where needed
- A thermostatic shower valve, so the temperature stays safe and steady
Decisions to make first
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.
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.
