Home adaption good practice

The latest report on delivery of home adaptation provision maintains ‘the overarching aim’ is for it to be accessible and timely.

Service providers can take a simple step to achieving this by using Closomat. The company - Britain’s leading provider of accessible bathroom/ toilet solutions - offers a unique package that ensures professional execution of a bathroom adaptation, and its ongoing, long-term performance.

Closomat manufactures the brand leader in shower (wash & dry) toilets. It also supplies a raft of additional bathroom fixtures that enable people to continue to live independently, and more safely, in their home. Innovatively, the company offers a complete project management service, covering survey to install and commissioning. Further, once the assistive technology is installed, Closomat can provide ongoing service & maintenance as required.

“The report(*) maintains that ‘retrofit’ is having, and will continue to have, a major impact on creation of accessible homes. It stresses the importance of ‘added value’ services, and creation of a culture of continuous improvement. The report also cites people’s desire for good design,” observes Robin Tuffley, Closomat marketing manager. “All those boxes are ticked by the service we provide. Bear in mind, the bathroom is the most common room to be adapted, and the toilet the most frequent fixture therein to be addressed: it makes sense, and is good practice, therefore, to use the expertise of the market leader, that brings with it a reputation for quality and reliability, in product and service. It’s about peace of mind, for all involved, for as long as the adaptation is needed.”

Closomat offers a comprehensive range of equipment to achieve an accessible WC/bathroom/ wetroom. Its project management service is fully C(DM) compliant. Its core products can be subject of subsequent service & maintenance packages.
