Disabled Bathroom Adaptations in Hanley
Fully tanked, level-access wet rooms for accessibility or premium spec.
We fit accessible bathrooms and wet rooms across Hanley for private clients, OT-led adaptations and Disabled Facilities Grant (DFG) projects.
Every adaptation starts with the user, not the room. We work to OT or BSO specs where required, but we'll also help families plan privately when waiting lists are long.

Common disabled bathroom adaptations issues in Hanley homes
Carers, families and OTs arranging accessible adaptations in Hanley hit a recurring set of issues with disabled bathroom adaptations:
Joist runs that block a level-access wet-floor former without notching — flagged regularly on Hanley jobs.
Door widths and turning circles that need reworking for a wheelchair user — flagged regularly on Hanley jobs.
Grab rails fixed into plasterboard only — pull out within a year — flagged regularly on Hanley jobs.
Adjacent rooms below at risk if the wet zone isn't fully sealed, particularly in Hanley properties of this age.
Around Hanley this shows up as joisted timber floors needing to be cut down for a level-access tray.
Disabled Bathroom Adaptations FAQs — Hanley
- Do you work to OT specifications in Hanley?
- Yes — we install to occupational therapist specs regularly across Hanley, including grab-rail heights, shower-seat reach zones, and level-access falls.
- Can a wet room be retrofitted into an upstairs Hanley bathroom?
- In most cases yes. We check the joists and waste run, lay a wet-floor former between joists, then tank and tile. We'll flag any structural concerns at the survey.
- Will I lose the bath if I switch to an accessible wet room?
- Usually yes — the bath gives way to the level-access shower zone. If you'd like to keep some bathing option we can spec a walk-in bath instead.
- Do you fit grab rails and shower seats?
- Yes. We carry Doc M-compliant ranges and can colour-match rails to suit. Seats are fixed into solid noggins, not just plasterboard.
- Is a wet-room safe over a habitable room?
- Yes if tanked properly to BS 5385-4. We membrane every joint and turn it up the walls before tiling, so an upstairs wet-room in a Hanley home doesn't risk the ceiling below.
- Do you tidy up at the end of each day?
- Yes — dust sheets stay down, the room is hoovered daily and we leave your Hanley home liveable while the work runs.
