When my own mum and dad needed their home made safer, I took on the job and took out the old bath and fitted a walk-in shower and made the bathroom somewhere they could manage safely and with dignity.

What I help with
- Grab rails and handrails — bathrooms, hallways, steps, beside beds
- Raised toilet seats and fold-down shower seats
- Non-slip strips on steps and thresholds
- Securing loose carpets or rugs
- Easy-turn lever taps — bathrooms and kitchens
- Small changes that make everyday tasks easier and safer
An important note on grab rails and shower seats: these need to be fitted correctly into solid wall fixings to be safe. Before booking, I'll have a quick conversation with you about the wall type and what's behind it — that means a short assessment visit first, so we can be sure the fitting will hold. I'll never fit something I'm not confident will bear the load safely.

I focus on small, practical safety changes. Full bathroom conversions (like walk-in showers from scratch) are beyond my current day-to-day scope — but I'm happy to point you toward the right specialist if that's what you need.
