Bathrooms are essential spaces in our homes, but they can pose challenges for individuals with mobility issues or disabilities. At New Life Bathrooms, we are committed to transforming bathrooms into safe and accessible spaces that cater to the unique needs of every individual. Here’s how we achieve this goal:

• Understanding the Importance of Accessibility – Accessibility is about more than just complying with regulations; it’s about creating a bathroom that enhances the quality of life for everyone who uses it. Whether it’s accommodating a family member with reduced mobility or planning for the future, we recognise the significance of accessible bathrooms in improving daily living and promoting independence.

• Personalised Consultations – Every bathroom renovation project begins with a personalised consultation. Our team takes the time to understand your specific needs, challenges, and preferences. We discuss mobility limitations, design preferences, and any future requirements. This comprehensive understanding allows us to tailor our designs to your unique situation.

• Barrier-Free Showers and Baths – One of the primary considerations in creating accessible bathrooms is the choice of showers and baths. New Life Bathrooms specialises in installing barrier-free showers and baths that provide easy entry and exit without the need to step over a high threshold. These designs promote safety and independence, making bathing a stress-free experience.

• Grab Bars and Supportive Fixtures – Safety is paramount in an accessible bathroom. We install strategically placed grab bars and supportive fixtures that provide stability and assistance when needed. These fixtures are designed to blend seamlessly with the bathroom’s aesthetics while ensuring user safety.

• Non-Slip Flooring and Easy-to-Reach Controls – We use non-slip flooring materials that provide traction, even when wet, to prevent slip and fall accidents. Additionally, we position controls, such as faucets and showerheads, at easy-to-reach heights to minimise strain and discomfort for individuals with limited mobility.

• Widened Doorways and Open Layouts – Creating accessible bathrooms often involves modifying the layout to accommodate wheelchairs and mobility aids. New Life Bathrooms can widen doorways and create open layouts that provide ample space for manoeuvrability. These changes not only enhance accessibility but also improve the overall functionality of the bathroom.

• Compliance with Regulations – Our experienced team is well-versed in local accessibility regulations and building codes. We ensure that all renovations meet or exceed these standards, providing you with peace of mind and ensuring that your bathroom is fully compliant with accessibility requirements.
