An elderly lady (though still full of life and spirit!) was struggling to use the large corner bath to shower in due to the height of the edge and problems getting in and out safely.

We were asked to remove the bath, replacing it with a large shower enclosure to which we suggested adding a folding seat for comfort.

We also suggested a new back to wall WC (no pipes on show or awkward places to clean) with an increased pan height of 450mm (standard WCs are 400mm approximately) which would make using the toilet much easier to use and maintain and lastly the clean look of a wall hung basin.

We re-used the shower which is an Aqualisa Digital model and also the towel radiator which had only been fit a couple of years ago.

Lastly the whole room was re-tiled (including the floor inside the cupboard) to give a fresh new look.

AWI designed, specified, supplied & installed this bathroom.

From start to finish the job included:

• Removal of the existing suite, wall & floor covering
• Painting of the ceiling
• Plaster-boarding in readiness for tiling
• Re-plumbing to allow for the new shower tray including boxing in of the waste pipe and subsequent tiling
• Walls fully tiled (ceramic tiles with stone border)
• Floor fully tiled (porcelain tiles)
• Installation of the new bathroom suite including large Merlyn shower enclosure with original Aqualisa Digital thermostatic shower, wall hung basin with semi-pedestal & towel radiator
