How Much Does An Accessible Bathroom Cost?

You may want a walk-in bath because you prefer a bath to a shower or it may be the most suitable for your needs, in which case you can expect to pay more due to the cost of the bath. However, there are other ways to save money within the project by selecting only what else is needed within the bathroom and opting for mid-range priced sanitaryware and décor.

A cost-effective accessible bathroom could be in the form of a walk-in shower. We would remove any existing bath or high-level access shower and replace it with a low-level access shower with an anti-slip shower tray, and we’d add grab bars if required and a fixed drop-down shower seat, positioned so you can easily access the shower controls.

Another quick and easy update to the décor is to use shower panels – these are easier to clean than tiles because there is no grout and they are 100% waterproof and the designs and modern and stylish.
For wheelchair users, a wet room would be advisable because it eliminates the need for shower trays and increases the available space to manoeuvre a wheelchair. This would involve creating suitable drainage underneath the anti-slip flooring and this is what can increase costs due to adding additional pipework and plumbing required.
