Working in King's Lynn
As well as King's Lynn itself (PE30), we survey in Wisbech, March and Spalding.
Homes in and around King's Lynn 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 King's Lynn home, so the rails and seat go where they are needed. If you are planning ahead in King's Lynn rather than reacting to a fall, a low-profile shower and hidden rail backing can go in now and be added to later.
Water across much of Norfolk is very hard. If your supply in King's Lynn 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 comfort-height WC, with support rails where needed
- Electrics by a qualified electrician, tested and certified, and an itemised quote you can give to a grant officer
- Slip-resistant floor tiles or safety flooring that grips when wet
- Removal of the bath and a level-access or low-profile shower in its place, or a full level-floor wet room
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.
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.
