Working in Maghull

We cover every part of Maghull, including L31, and nearby Kirkby (3.1 miles) and Litherland (4 miles).

Homes in and around Maghull 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 Maghull home, so the rails and seat go where they are needed. If you are applying to your council for a grant, we provide an itemised written quote for your Maghull home to go with the application.

Most of Merseyside is supplied with soft water. If that holds for your street in Maghull, 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 fold-down shower seat and grab rails fixed into solid wall or timber backing fitted behind the boards
A thermostatic shower valve, so the temperature stays safe and steady
A comfort-height WC, with support rails where needed
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

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.

Colour contrast

Contrast between floor, walls, rails and the WC seat makes the room easier to use for people with sight loss or dementia.

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.
