Yes, we have a wide range of colours for the furnishings and accessories in our bathrooms.

Our assessors have many samples for you to look through and decide on, ensuring you find the perfect match for your style and needs.

Our project management team handles all aspects of the project.

They oversee everything from the initial planning stages to final completion, ensuring a smooth process throughout.

This is what separates us from a standard bathroom installation company. Here at EA Mobility we understand the needs of our clients and provide expert advice based on your unique situation.

Your care needs are our number one priority and we pride ourselves on blending functionality with flawless design.

The term wet room is used to describe a level access shower arrangement where the shower is all on the same level. You do not need to step over a tray when getting in or out of a wet room as they are on the same level as the bathroom floor.

Whereas, a low profile shower room is where a shower tray is fitted, thus creating a small step. A wet room facility is needed when the client is a wheelchair user or is very fragile on their feet and any step becomes as a hazard.

When a full bathroom adaptation takes place we would typically allow between one and two weeks, depending on the construction works required.

As part of our service we would ensure that you understood how long your adaptation will take and what work will be carried out to give you peace of mind.

We have worked with some extremely small spaces but we always manage to meet the needs of the individual.

With careful planning and design, our team are sure to come up with a flawless solution.

Slippery floors can be a problem if the wrong floor covering is used.

We only use fully guaranteed anti-slip floor surfaces, and our surveys and assessors have samples of these to demonstrate their effectiveness to you.

There are a number of ways this can be achieved which is dependent on assessing the space.

Our assessors will work with you and the space available to ensure that there is a solution.

We offer an installation lifetime guarantee on all of our solutions.

In addition, we carry forward all product manufacturer’s guarantees ranging from 5- 15 years.

Generally, the cost of installing a home bathroom or wet room can be significantly less than the expense of residential care over a relatively short period of time. For context, a typical bathroom installation often costs around the same as 6 to 10 weeks of care home costs.

Investing in your own bathroom provides a solution tailored to your specific needs, independence, and peace of mind, potentially offering significant savings and improved quality of life compared to ongoing care costs.

Walk-in baths are great for a relaxing soak and can help with certain mobility and medical needs, but they tend to require more water and can take longer to fill and drain. They also usually come with a higher price point. Walk-in showers, on the other hand, are quicker to use, typically more water-efficient, and often more affordable.

The best choice depends on your individual mobility requirements, preferences, and bathroom space.

Walk-in baths, especially deep soak models, require a significant amount of water to fill. Depending on your water pressure and boiler type, filling the bath may take longer, and you’ll need to wait for the bath to drain before exiting. You may want to consider choosing a heated seat option for extra comfort.

Additionally, walk-in baths tend to be at a higher price point compared to a standard bath or a walk-in shower. Consider these factors alongside your mobility needs and bathroom size when making your choice.

There are several types of walk-in showers to suit different needs and bathroom setups:

Low-Level Walk-In Showers: These feature a low threshold, making it easier and safer to enter without stepping over a high lip. They are suitable for those with mobility challenges and also create a sleek, modern look in your bathroom.

Level Access Showers: Also known as floor-level showers, these are installed flush with the bathroom floor, providing seamless access without any steps. They are perfect for wheelchair users or anyone wanting maximum accessibility.

Wet Rooms: These are fully waterproofed shower areas with no separate enclosure or tray. Water drains directly through a level floor, creating a highly accessible and contemporary bathroom design ideal for maximum mobility and ease of use..

The best type of walk-in shower for you depends on your specific mobility needs:

If you use a shower chair and require easy, level access, a level access walk-in shower is ideal. It provides a smooth, step-free entry for safe and comfortable use.

For users with fair mobility, a low-level walk-in shower offers a slight threshold that’s easy to step over, combining safety with a sleek, modern look.

If you have no mobility challenges, a plinth-based walk-in shower may be suitable, especially if your drainage system allows.

No, only the shower area drains. A sloped “former” is installed beneath the flooring in the shower zone to direct water towards the drain.

To ensure effective drainage and prevent water from escaping, we recommend installing the largest possible former to maximize drainage efficiency.
