Home adaptations, to help overcome disability come in a wide range of shapes and sizes, from the relatively basic things such as folding or grab rails to much larger scale home adaptations such as wet rooms.
At GB Home Adaptations, we believe that everyone should have the opportunity to learn as much as possible about how they can live life with dignity and independence at home and obtain the bathroom adaptations they might need.
Whilst everyone’s situation and needs are different, there are a number of common questions and concerns that our dedicated home adaptations team come across, as we deliver our services across Herefordshire and beyond.
Our website is designed to be a rich resource of information for anyone thinking about bathroom safety adaptations, its pages address many concerns and questions, such as:
- The range of bathroom safety adaptations we offer
- Wetrooms designed specifically for disabled people
- Showers for disabled people
- Information concerning funding processes and mobility adaptation grants
How much does a disabled wetroom cost?
Understandably, costs are at the forefront of many people’s minds when considering a wet room installation. With so many different factors involved, it is difficult to estimate an average price.
Wet rooms come in all shapes and sizes and it is important to remember that they are a stylish and versatile option that suit most budgets and requirements.
Here are just some of the main benefits of a wetroom:
- They are fully waterproof and far easier to keep clean than conventional bathrooms
- They add space to smaller bathrooms
- They are ideal for those with mobility issues, completely removing the need to step in and out of showers and bathtubs
- They are safer
- They deliver independence, as well as an increase in value to your property

Other bathroom adaptations & bath aids
A key advantage we can offer is the size and scope to offer the widest range of bathroom adaptations to our customers. We have the trusted local teams and wide range of accredited trade skills to undertake the job from start to finish.
We can install bathroom aids such as domestic lifts to access upstairs, ceiling track and ‘H’ systems hoists, as well as non-slip flooring, widening doorways for wheelchair users and stairlifts.
With such a considerable range of options, it is a good idea to seek an assessment from a registered Occupational Therapist, who will visit you in your home and assess your needs thoroughly. You can get this service from your local council; it is a service we also provide as an option to our customers.
