The story

How we made Steve's shower safe to step into

1
The challenge

A tray he had to climb over

Steve was struggling to step into his shower safely. The raised tray and sliding doors made getting in and out a risk, and he needed a room he could use without worrying.

Our solution

Level access, and a wall to keep it dry

We converted the shower into a fully level-access wet room. To keep the rest of the room dry we built a stud wall near the door, and we measured and fitted grab rails in exactly the right positions for Steve, including a floor-to-ceiling support pole and a hinged rail by the toilet. A comfort-height toilet, folding shower seat and modern LED mirror finish the room.

The result

Safer, and simpler to use

Steve now has a bathroom he can step into confidently, with support wherever he reaches for it and nothing left to climb over.

Full Accessible Wet Room & Bath Installation for Peter

Peter wanted a safer bathroom without giving up his bath, and he didn’t have to. We took out an old cupboard to fit both a walk-in wet room shower and a brand new bath, with grab rails and a slip-resistant floor.
