What the job includes
- A home survey of how the room is used now and what needs to change, including door width and turning space
- A fold-down shower seat and grab rails fixed into solid wall or timber backing fitted behind the boards
- 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
Decisions to make first
Colour contrast
Contrast between floor, walls, rails and the WC seat makes the room easier to use for people with sight loss or dementia.
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.
