Bathroom Adaptation Grants by Council

Every Scottish council delivers the Scheme of Assistance a little differently — who you contact, who handles the paperwork, and how eligibility and any financial assessment are applied. Pick yours for the specifics, and confirm the current rules with the council itself.

For qualifying mandatory adaptation grants in Scottish private-sector housing, the statutory minimum is 80% of the council-approved eligible expense, or 100% where the prescribed benefit conditions apply. This is not 80% or 100% of every bathroom quotation: the council must assess need, eligibility, eligible work and approved expense. General refurbishment, chosen upgrades and excluded work are not automatically covered. Council and housing-association tenants use their landlord's adaptation route rather than assume this private-sector grant calculation applies.
