Working in Guisborough
As well as Guisborough itself (TS14), we survey in Redcar, Middlesbrough and Thornaby-on-Tees.
Being a smaller town does not change how we work in Guisborough: free survey, written quote, one team. We can work alongside an occupational therapist assessment for your Guisborough home, so the rails and seat go where they are needed. If your Guisborough bathroom is upstairs on timber joists, we check them before promising a fully level floor.
Water across much of North Yorkshire is moderately hard. A quick wipe of the glass and an easy-clean coating are worth having on a new shower in Guisborough. Hardness varies street by street, so check the figure for your postcode with your water supplier.
What the job includes
- A basin set at a height that suits sitting or standing
- Lever taps, contrasting colours for rails and fittings, and good lighting for people with low vision
- 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
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.
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.
