Working in Poulton-le-Fylde
We cover every part of Poulton-le-Fylde, including FY2, FY3 and FY6, and nearby Blackpool (3 miles) and Thornton-Cleveleys (3.2 miles).
Being a smaller town does not change how we work in Poulton-le-Fylde: free survey, written quote, one team. If you are planning ahead in Poulton-le-Fylde 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 Poulton-le-Fylde home to go with the application.
Water across much of Lancashire is soft. If that holds for your street in Poulton-le-Fylde, 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
- A comfort-height WC, with support rails where needed
- Removal of the bath and a level-access or low-profile shower in its place, or a full level-floor wet room
- 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 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.
