Working in Darton

We cover every part of Darton, including S71 and S75, and nearby Barnsley (3.1 miles) and Wakefield (6.8 miles).

Darton gets the same process as anywhere else: a free survey at your home and a written, itemised quote. For Darton 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. If you are planning ahead in Darton rather than reacting to a fall, a low-profile shower and hidden rail backing can go in now and be added to later.

Supplies across most of South Yorkshire are moderately hard. A quick wipe of the glass and an easy-clean coating are worth having on a new shower in Darton. Hardness varies street by street, so check the figure for your postcode with your water supplier.

What the job includes

Slip-resistant floor tiles or safety flooring that grips when wet
Lever taps, contrasting colours for rails and fittings, and good lighting for people with low vision
A thermostatic shower valve, so the temperature stays safe and steady
A basin set at a height that suits sitting or standing

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.

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.

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.
