Disabled Bathroom Adaptations in East Kilbride
Free home survey · Written quotation, no obligation
We design and fit bathroom adaptations for disabled and elderly users across Central Scotland — from a single grab rail or raised toilet, to a full wet room. Most jobs we take on are recommended by an occupational therapist and funded, in part or in full, by the local council.
Why East Kilbride households choose this
East Kilbride is inside our core Lanarkshire service area. The town is unusual in Scotland because so much of it was built to a plan: the new-town estates at Calderwood, Westwood, Murray and The Village share a fairly small number of bathroom layouts, typically a compact upstairs bathroom with a full-size bath along one wall and lightweight stud partitions. Those partitions are the detail that matters on an adaptation — they are easy to open up and back with timber or a plywood pattress so grab rails and a shower seat can be fixed into something solid rather than into board. Where a bath-to-shower conversion reuses the existing waste position, it is usually the least disruptive route. The bungalows and later developments around Stewartfield and the southern edge of the town more often have a ground-floor bathroom with room for a level-access shower or a wet room, and on a ground floor the drainage fall is generally easier to accommodate than on an upper timber floor. We survey the floor construction before quoting either way. Work can be arranged and paid for privately with us; if you are pursuing grant funding, East Kilbride comes under South Lanarkshire Council and we can quote in the format their team asks for.

Funding through South Lanarkshire Council
South Lanarkshire Council's HomeImprove information states that eligible disabled adaptations follow an occupational therapy assessment, and that mandatory grant is normally 80% of approved costs, rising to 100% in some cases. Eligibility and the process depend on your circumstances and tenure — confirm the current position with the council.

Frequently asked questions — East Kilbride

Can South Lanarkshire Council fund my installation?▾
Possibly. South Lanarkshire help with adaptations through the Scheme of Assistance, and support normally follows an assessment of need — usually by an occupational therapist. Eligibility, the level of any grant and the process vary by council and by whether you own or rent, so check the position with them. Where a grant is involved we provide quotes in the format the council asks for, and you can also arrange the work with us privately instead.
Do I need an occupational therapist referral?▾
No — you can self-fund the work, or use it to top up a council grant if one is awarded. If you do have an OT recommendation we'll quote against it; if you don't, we'll advise based on the home survey.
How much will the council pay?▾
It varies. Eligibility, the level of grant and the process differ by council and by tenure, and an assessment of need is generally involved. South Lanarkshire Council currently states that eligible disabled adaptations follow an occupational therapy assessment and that mandatory grant is normally 80%, with 100% in some cases; other councils set this out differently, so check your own council's scheme.
