Life Changes and Sometimes Our Needs Change Too

Each shower and bathroom is unique because all of our clients have different needs. Our accessible bathroom design is flexible, cost effective and enhances our customers’ quality of life.

Planning Accessible Shower Design

Planning accessible showers and disabled friendly bathrooms takes experience and understanding as all our customers’ needs are different. We have more than 15 years of experience in accessible shower design and we find practical solutions that make life easier and safer for those with a disability. Sometimes it can be as simple as removing a bathtub and installing an easy access shower, and on other occasions the work can be more extensive. There are many considerations when planning accessibility and safety in a bathroom, some of these include

What bathroom activities require a user to need assistance?

Every person has different needs and present and future requirements should be taken into account when designing an accessible shower or bathroom. Planning ahead ensures that if a person’s health should deteriorate the bathroom will still be suitable.

Is wheelchair access required?

A shower without a lip is ideal for people using a wheelchair, walker or for someone who is at risk for falls and can be used by everyone regardless of ability.

Sink and vanity access

Wall mounted sinks and vanities are generally better suited for accessible showers and bathrooms particularly if a wheelchair needs to be accommodated.

Placement of mirrors

Mounting a lower placed mirror, extra-long mirror or tilt mirror that everyone can use is an important consideration for disabled bathroom renovations.

Is a bathtub or shower more suitable

Some clients feel more comfortable using a tub than a shower and accessible bathroom design should take this into account. We find that we are often asked to remove a bathtub and install an accessible shower for clients with mobility issues.

Lighting

Good lighting in the bathroom is important for safety and motion detecting lights can be used when access to switches is difficult.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. The Shower Doctor Team did a fabulous job of an ensuite shower refresh for me - replaced floor and wall tile grout with epoxy and  polymer grout.  Also replaced silicon sealant. They were very thorough including removing and reinstalling the frameless glass shower wall and door to allow a deep clean.  Joe who did the bulk of the work was not only a professional but a perfectionist, did a stellar job and the end result was beautiful.  Joe was very generous with his time, his expertise and sharing knowledge on maintainence going forward. He knew his stuff and left the place spotless.  I wouldn't hesitate to recommend Joe and the Shower Doctor Team.
