Working in Ramsgate

As well as Ramsgate itself (CT10, CT11 and CT12), we survey in Broadstairs, Margate and Deal.

In Ramsgate, as anywhere, the age of the house decides a lot: pipe sizes, floor construction and where the soil stack runs. If someone in your Ramsgate home is finding the bath hard to get in and out of, a level-access shower in the same space is usually the first option we look at. We can work alongside an occupational therapist assessment for your Ramsgate home, so the rails and seat go where they are needed.

Water across much of Kent is very hard. If your supply in Ramsgate 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

Lever taps, contrasting colours for rails and fittings, and good lighting for people with low vision
A basin set at a height that suits sitting or standing
Slip-resistant floor tiles or safety flooring that grips when wet
A fold-down shower seat and grab rails fixed into solid wall or timber backing fitted behind the boards

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.

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.

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.
