Working in Cumbernauld
In Cumbernauld we cover G67; we also cover Airdrie, 5.6 miles away, and Coatbridge.
Homes in and around Cumbernauld vary, so we look at the floor, the walls and the water system before we price anything. We can work alongside an occupational therapist assessment for your Cumbernauld home, so the rails and seat go where they are needed. If your Cumbernauld bathroom is upstairs on timber joists, we check them before promising a fully level floor.
Water across much of Lanarkshire is soft. If that holds for your street in Cumbernauld, 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 fold-down shower seat and grab rails fixed into solid wall or timber backing fitted behind the boards
- Slip-resistant floor tiles or safety flooring that grips when wet
- A home survey of how the room is used now and what needs to change, including door width and turning space
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.
Rail positions
Rails go where you need support: beside the WC, at the shower entry and near the seat. We set heights with the user at the survey so they suit their reach.
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.
