Tips for your accessible bathroom renovation

Whether you’re adapting your bathroom for a current mobility issue or planning ahead, it’s important to consider how your needs may change. Features like level-access showers, fold-down seats, non-slip flooring, and grab rails are essential for safety and independence—not just now, but in the years to come.

Wet rooms are fully waterproofed spaces, so smart layout is key. Make sure there’s enough room for movement, including space for a wheelchair or carer assistance if needed. Consider placing the shower away from the entrance to reduce splash zones, and keep essentials within easy reach.

Safety should always come first. Choose anti-slip tiles or vinyl flooring specifically designed for wet room environments. These materials look great and provide essential grip, reducing the risk of slips and falls—especially in soapy or wet conditions.

Accessible doesn’t mean clinical. Modern wet rooms can be sleek, elegant, and inviting. From contemporary tiles and glass screens to concealed drainage and minimalist fittings, there are endless design options to create a space you’ll love using every day.

Look for wall panels, grout-free finishes, and smooth surfaces to make cleaning easier. A well-designed wet room should be both functional and low-maintenance—especially important if daily tasks are already a challenge.

A well-designed wet room can restore independence, improve safety, and add value to your home—all while looking fantastic. Whether you’re just starting to explore your options or ready to take the next step, our friendly experts are here to help.
