The Project:

Following an accident at home, our client was left paralysed after NHS negligence and required adaptations to his bungalow. This included remodelling of two rooms to make an accessible bathroom with level access shower (to accommodate shower stretcher) and specialist bath.

Hoisting was required to cover both rooms via a pocket door. But the most important aspect of this adaptation was a TV in both rooms where our client could watch his beloved Tottenham Hotspur from bed and bath!

We were very pleased to receive the following testimonial from the client:

The new technology is amazing – my new bath looks like something from the space programme and TV’s in every room means that I never miss a Spurs game!
