Increase Accessibility in your Bathroom
Disabled wet rooms increase the accessibility of your bathroom, making it easier for you to use your bathroom by yourself without support. They make getting into your shower easy, as there is a level floor so there’s no need to step up into a shower tray which can be difficult if you have limited mobility or are in a wheelchair. They also have large openings, making them easy to get in and out of. Disabled wet rooms also tend to be large and spacious, meaning that there is lots of space for movability and that it won’t feel tight or cramped. This is great for those with wheelchairs as there is plenty of space for you to move around.
Make Your Bathroom Safer to Use
They help make your bathroom safer to use, so you can have peace of mind that you or your family member will be safe in their bathroom. Bathrooms can be dangerous and scary spaces for those with mobility difficulties or those who are elderly, or disabled. A lot of trips and falls tend to occur in the home, which is where a disabled wet room can help. As the entire bathroom will be on one level, you will be a lot less likely to trip and fall. Disabled wet rooms also have non-slip tiles, so you don’t have to worry about slipping due to a wet floor. You can also make your disabled wet room even safer by adding additional equipment such as handrails, grab bars, shower seats and fold-down seats to make life easier.
Allow You to Remain Comfortable in Your Home
Wet rooms help those who are struggling to use their current bathroom spaces regain their independence, and be able to use their bathroom by themselves again. This can really change how those struggling with mobility issues, disabilities, or those who are elderly feel and provide them with a boost of confidence that they might need. It can be super challenging both physically and mentally when you are unable to use the bathroom in your own home by yourself without a challenge, which is why a disabled wet room is the ideal solution. It also means that you won’t have to worry about moving to a home with a more accessible bathroom, and can remain comfortable in your current property.

We are approved council suppliers of disabled wet rooms and bathroom equipment – and we have a variety of wet rooms, walk-in shower rooms, and disability bathroom equipment to help make using your bathroom in Dublin easier.
Our Disabled Wetrooms consist of a shower area within your bathroom, which has waterproof level floor entry for ease of access. This will make entering your disabled wet room easy, and you don’t have to worry about water getting on the floor or walls. Our wet rooms can be installed on any level of your home, whether it be downstairs or upstairs. The water from your shower will simply fall away into a chrome galley trap, within your shower area in your wet room.
We will also install an underfloor wetroom tray, which is available in different sizes and create a waterproof seal around the tray and up your walls. We then lay slip-resistant mosaic toils in the shower area, to ensure your safety and that no slips or falls occur in your bathroom space. We will then fit your new disabled wet room to the highest standard as per your unique specifications, and make sure that it is fully accessible for you to use comfortably.
