We recently undertook a great project in Preston, involving the transformation of a bathroom to create a spacious and accessible disability bathroom.
The primary objective was to accommodate the specific needs of a 5-year-old girl who uses a wheelchair while also providing a relaxing bath space for her mother. Sima Care’s expertise in creating disability-friendly bathrooms ensured the successful completion of the project, resulting in a functional and comfortable space for the entire family.
Client Background:
Located in Preston, the client approached Sima Care with a vision to create a disability bathroom that catered to the specific needs of their 5-year-old daughter who uses a wheelchair. Additionally, they wanted to incorporate a bath area where the mother could relax and unwind. Understanding the importance of accessibility and comfort, Sima Care was selected as the ideal partner for this project.
Project Overview:
Sima Care’s team began by assessing the existing bathroom layout and determining the most effective approach for the transformation. With the goal of creating a spacious and accessible environment, the team proposed knocking through to an extension, doubling the size of the bathroom. This allowed for ample space to accommodate the wheelchair and various accessibility features, while also providing a separate bathing area for the mother’s relaxation.
Creation of an Accessible Wet Room:
To ensure ease of access for the child using a wheelchair, Sima Care transformed the bathroom floor into a level tiled wet room. The floor was meticulously insulated, creating a safe and comfortable surface for movement. The walls were tiled in porcelain, offering durability and a visually appealing aesthetic. The wet room design provided a seamless and obstacle-free space for the child to navigate with ease.
Incorporating a Relaxing Bath Area:
Understanding the need for the mother to have a space for relaxation, Sima Care incorporated a bath area within the disability bathroom. This area was designed to provide comfort and tranquility, allowing the mother to unwind while ensuring it did not compromise the accessibility and functionality of the bathroom. The bath area was carefully integrated into the overall design, harmonising with the accessible features of the space.
Conclusion:
Sima Care’s successful completion of the disability bathroom project in Preston exemplifies its commitment to creating functional and accessible spaces tailored to individual needs. By transforming the existing bathroom into a spacious and wheelchair-friendly environment, Sima Care successfully addressed the specific requirements of the 5-year-old girl while providing a relaxing bath area for her mother. The project’s success highlights Sima Care’s expertise in disability bathroom design and its dedication to improving the quality of life for individuals with mobility challenges.
