Lytham, St Annes Disabled Bathrooms provide a bathroom design and installation service covering Lytham, St Annes, Blackpool, Poulton the and surrounding areas.

With proper design techniques, accessible bathrooms can give independence and confidence back to elderly or disabled individuals who are not currently able to use a standard bathroom. We understand that all disabled bathrooms must be designed to match the individual's requirements and have vast experience advising on the bathroom layout and suite styles to match your needs.

Whether you require us to fit simple grab rails, to make your current bathroom more accessible, or a complete bathroom adaptation to meet your personal requirements, you can count on us to provide a professional service with the minimum disruption. We will help those clients with special needs choose and source discreet, quality aids and fittings to make their bathing experience easier, safer and more enjoyable.

We will work with you when designing your bathroom to ensure it meets both your accessibility requirements and desired styles. We work closely with local suppliers to ensure the suites and accessibility components are the highest possible quality to give you a bathroom that will last.

Our most popular option, the wet room, incorporates easy-access showers, without steps or raised edges, to reduce the risks of tripping or falling. They are convenient, hygienic, easy-to-clean and with a wide choice of flooring and accessories, can really enhance your home.

Disability Bathrooms

Typically, in the past, disability bathrooms have been overly institutionalised in style and have stuck to clinical styles, colours and designs. Well, not anymore. Bathrooms for people with disabilities or older people can look just as good (if not better) than any mainstream bathroom you’d see in a showroom or boutique hotel.

Here at LSBW, we pride ourselves on not only producing the best quality products which make a bathroom truly accessible but in making sure that these products look as good as possible too. The style of our home is important to almost everyone, so why should people with disabilities or additional needs compromise?

What do disability bathrooms contain?

That would completely depend on the needs of the user. You would usually expect to see a walk in shower solution of some sort, whether that be a low or level access shower tray or a wet room. If the user of the bathroom needs support whilst showering there may be a shower seat installed with a selection of thoughtfully positioned grab rails too. A shower screen would keep the rest of the bathroom dry from the water out of the electric shower or mixer shower.

Elsewhere in the room, you may expect to see a raised height toilet that is easier to get on and off and some easy to use paddle taps on the ergonomic washbasin.

There are no right or wrong answers to the question “what should go in a disability bathroom?” as it all depends on the specific needs of those that will use it.

Getting a disability bathroom via a Disabled Facilities Grant (DFG)

If you or somebody close to you has a disability that affects their use of a standard bathroom, then they could be eligible for a DFG from their local council that will provide funding for them to be able to adapt their bathroom with accessible products to enable them to shower and use the room more independently. For more information on the DFG, please visit www.gov.uk.

Choosing the right bathroom for the needs of the user

When it comes to accessibility in the bathroom, it’s all relative. Accessibility can only be truly measured on a user by user basis. What may be perfectly accessible for one person may be completely inaccessible for another. This is where our in-depth surveying and evaluation process is invaluable. To read more about what defines accessible, read our blog.

Is DOC M a disability bathroom?

DOC M is short for Document M, a legal guideline which explains the minimum requirements for a disabled bathroom. It does explain the requirement for accessible equipment for public toilet facilities but does not provision for showering or bathing. Please read our article What is DOC M for more information.

How long will the adaptation to the bathroom take?

That depends on the amount of work required, as adding a few carefully positioned grab rails and an ergonomic toilet seat may only take a few hours, a full wet room installation can take much longer, depending on the installer.
