Top Luxury Bathroom Features to Add to Your Accessible Redesign

When you think about accessible bathrooms, most of what comes to mind is all function and minimal style. It doesn’t have to be this way. If you have mobility issues and are looking to update your bathroom to better accommodate your needs, know you can also use that time to create a truly beautiful, luxurious experience for yourself. There’s no reason why one has to come at the sacrifice of the other. Instead, put both together to create something truly wonderful that you can enjoy for years on end by following these top tips.


Work With Bathroom Specialists 


Before you get carried away, know it’s important that you work with specialists when planning your bathroom design in Bedfordshire. We know just what accessibility options there are and what design limitations they come with. In some cases, what you want looks-wise will need to be adapted to make room for the accessibility features. By working with us directly from step one, you can create a winning bathroom that does it all without holding back. 


Top Luxury Bathroom Features 


Without further ado, here are the top luxury bathroom features that are also perfect additions to your accessible space.


Wet Room 


Wet rooms are perfect for those with mobility issues, including wheelchairs. They are essentially the curbless shower taken up a notch or two. Rather than have any sort of lip that you may struggle with, those wet rooms are fully tiled with either a central drain or multiple drains. You can walk or roll right into the shower space, to your sink, toilet and more without anything getting in your way. Wet rooms also tend to be easier to clean since there are fewer corners and difficult-to-reach areas. 


Heated Underflooring 


Heated flooring is a luxury for everyone, and it can also be a great option for those with mobility issues. You can use your heated underflooring to help evaporate any leftover water, which means there are fewer slipping hazards, and instead, you get a nice and cosy shower floor. 


Automatic Features 


Automation is the height of luxury in a smart home, and it’s also very good for improving the accessibility of your space. Automated showers, toilets, and sinks can all do wonders towards helping you enjoy the best features, even with mobility problems. 


Choose Beautiful Grab Bars 


Think your only option for a grab bar is the flat silver look? Think again. You can choose grab bars in almost any colour, allowing you to either add a lovely contrast to your bathroom design or blend it seamlessly in, depending on your needs. 


Task Lighting 


Task lighting is an essential component in any luxury bathroom, and it can also help those with vision difficulties see what they are doing in key areas of the bathroom. This lighting can come from above to make things like the sink or toilet more visible or can even come from below. You can add lighting underneath your sink, toilet and other furniture pieces to add a lovely glow that also makes it easier to see the outline of your bathroom.
