Accessible Bathroom Design 

 

Accessible bathrooms are essential for ensuring comfort and safety for all individuals, particularly the elderly and those with disabilities.  As people age, they often face challenges such as reduced mobility, balance issues, and diminished strength, which can make using standard bathrooms difficult and risky.  Accessible bathrooms are designed with spacious layouts that accommodate mobility aids like wheelchairs and walkers.  These adaptations not only prevent accidents and falls but also promote independence by allowing users to perform personal hygiene tasks with ease.  By providing accessible bathrooms to meet the specific needs of elderly clients there is a sense of dignity and well-being in their daily routines.

 

If you are building a new home consider future proofing, this entails making sure there are enough nogs in the bathroom walls for future fixings as clients age.  If you intend to live in your new home forever then this is definitely a must and can also be a bonus to future owners if you intend to sell your home on.

 

Creating a bathroom that is both functional and accessible can make a world of difference, especially for those clients who require a little more assistance, I offer a comprehensive service below which includes:

 

Space Assessment:

Gather information of your space to evaluate the current bathroom layout and identify opportunities for improvement to ensure it meets NZBC accessibility standards.

Detailed recommendations:

Receive a detailed plan outlining the necessary modifications to achieve a fully accessible bathroom, or smaller alterations, tailored to your specific needs & budget.

Project Management:

For clients seeking additional support, I offer project management services to oversee the implementation of the design, ensuring a smooth and efficient renovation process.

 

So if you are unsure of how to achieve the right products for your space or you just want to make sure that you have future proofed your new build, get in touch and lets make sure everything is considered to create the right space for now and the future.  Plan it first!
