Working in Burnham-on-Sea
We work right across Burnham-on-Sea — TA8 — and in neighbouring Weston-super-Mare and Bridgwater.
Being a smaller town does not change how we work in Burnham-on-Sea: free survey, written quote, one team. If you are planning ahead in Burnham-on-Sea rather than reacting to a fall, a low-profile shower and hidden rail backing can go in now and be added to later. For Burnham-on-Sea homes where the only toilet is in the bathroom, we plan the work so it stays usable for as much of the job as possible.
Supplies across most of Somerset are hard. If your supply in Burnham-on-Sea 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
- Removal of the bath and a level-access or low-profile shower in its place, or a full level-floor wet room
- Electrics by a qualified electrician, tested and certified, and an itemised quote you can give to a grant officer
- A comfort-height WC, with support rails where needed
- Lever taps, contrasting colours for rails and fittings, and good lighting for people with low vision
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.
