Bathrooms are a vital part of your home. Even more so when you have mobility issues and having an accessible bathroom may be the difference between living independently in your own home and having to get carers in to help you wash or moving into a residential care home.
Accessible bathrooms need to be functional, ensuring that you can bathe safely is essential. However many people that we speak to think that a bathroom adapted with a walk in shower or wet rook will look like a hospital bathroom. Nothing could be further from the truth. Accessible bathrooms can also be a beautiful addition to your home and a pleasant place to spend time.
Many people think that one of the big-name brands is the only place you can go to find a bathroom that will be right for your mobility needs. Whilst these companies can help you with what you need, the truth is that a smaller, local, independent bathroom company that specialises in adapting bathrooms for people with mobility issues might be a much better choice for you.
Why do we say this? Why does it always pay to go local to your accessible bathroom?
We all want to receive the best service, primarily if we invest in something we need for our homes. One thing is for sure when you choose a local bathroom specialist, like Parish Bathrooms, there is more accountability, you will be able to speak to the project managers or the owner should you need to. In short, they will provide you with the very best in customer service.
Not only do we take time to get to know you and your individual needs to accommodate your mobility issues, but we also make it our aim to ensure that you have the best experience possible too. We rely on positive word of mouth to grow their business.
No bathroom is the same, and different people will need different adaptations made to their bathroom to accommodate their mobility needs. Some of our customers are elderly and some have long term injuries or disabilities They all have individual challenges and need bathrooms that are designed specifically for them. Some may need a walk in bath, others may need a walk-in shower. Some of our customers prefer or need a full wet room, especially if they are wheelchair users.

Additionally, each house is unique some may be large properties with plenty of space and others are more challenging with a limited space. Fortunately with good design we can normally build or adapt a bathroom to ensure that it is safe and accessible for the customer regardless of the size.
When you speak to a local company, you can explain your needs, and they can put a plan in place to ensure that they can help to meet these. You won’t be treated like another number in their customer database. Instead, you will be a valuable customer to them.
