Working in Warminster

We work right across Warminster — BA12 — and in neighbouring Westbury and Frome.

Warminster gets the same process as anywhere else: a free survey at your home and a written, itemised quote. If you are applying to your council for a grant, we provide an itemised written quote for your Warminster home to go with the application. If you are planning ahead in Warminster rather than reacting to a fall, a low-profile shower and hidden rail backing can go in now and be added to later.

Most of Wiltshire has hard water. If your supply in Warminster 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

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
Removal of the bath and a level-access or low-profile shower in its place, or a full level-floor wet room
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.

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.

Is the water hard in Warminster?

Who handles building control for an accessible bathroom in Warminster?

Building control for Warminster is handled by the local council or an approved inspector. If your job needs sign-off — for example a new circuit, new drainage or a new extractor where there was none — we tell you at the survey and handle the notification as part of the work.

Do I pay VAT on a disabled bathroom?

Often not. Building work to adapt a home for a disabled person, such as converting a bath to a level-access shower, can be zero-rated under HMRC VAT Notice 701/7. It is not means-tested; the person, or someone on their behalf, signs an eligibility declaration. We go through which items qualify with you before quoting.
