Walk-in Showers for the Elderly in Bathgate

Free home survey · Written quotation, no obligation

A walk-in shower is the single most popular adaptation we fit — a low-step, slip-resistant tray with grab rails and an optional fold-down seat. Your installation schedule is confirmed in the written quotation before work starts.

Why Bathgate households choose this

Bathgate and the surrounding villages — Blackburn, Whitburn, Armadale — have a lot of older bungalows and ex-council stock where the bathroom upstairs has quietly become unusable. Where there is space, a level-access shower on the ground floor can make daily washing manageable again.

Bathgate and the surrounding West Lothian towns are within our service area.

Funding through West Lothian Council

Grant help is administered under Scotland's Scheme of Assistance. Eligibility, the level of any grant and the process vary by tenure and circumstances, and an assessment of need is generally involved — confirm the current rules with the council.

Can West Lothian Council fund my installation?

Possibly. West Lothian 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.

How long does a walk-in shower installation take?

It depends on the bathroom and the specification. Your schedule, from rip-out to handover, is set out in the written quotation before work starts.

Will I lose the use of my bathroom for the whole time?

Usually only for two or three of those days. We sequence the work so you have a working toilet for most of the install.
