Working in Bartley Green
We work right across Bartley Green — B29, B32 and B62 — and in neighbouring Halesowen and Smethwick.
Bartley Green gets the same process as anywhere else: a free survey at your home and a written, itemised quote. If you are planning ahead in Bartley Green rather than reacting to a fall, a low-profile shower and hidden rail backing can go in now and be added to later. For Bartley Green 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.
Hardness differs from one part of the West Midlands to the next. A quick wipe of the glass and an easy-clean coating are worth having on a new shower in Bartley Green. 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 fold-down shower seat and grab rails fixed into solid wall or timber backing fitted behind the boards
- A basin set at a height that suits sitting or standing
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.
Screen or curtain
A half-height or folding screen lets a carer help without getting soaked. A weighted curtain is easier than glass for some people to move.
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.
