Disability Bathroom Installers in Solihull
Level-access showers, wet rooms and fully adapted bathrooms across Solihull (B90–B94, B37). M3 Trades installs safe, dignified, beautifully finished mobility bathrooms — for homeowners, private clients and Disabled Facilities Grant (DFG) referrals across West Midlands.
Why Solihull chooses M3 Trades
Specialist mobility bathroom installers — not general builders
We install adapted bathrooms every month across the West Midlands. It's not a sideline — it's a core part of what we do.
Level-access walk-in showers
Low-profile or fully flush shower trays with tanked wet-floor construction — no step, no lip, no trip hazard.
Grab rails & non-slip flooring
Doc-M compliant grab rails, thermostatic showers with anti-scald, and R11-rated non-slip vinyl or tiles throughout.
Wheelchair-accessible layouts
Reconfigured layouts with turning circles, wall-hung vanities and comfort-height WCs for genuine independence.
Discreet, dignified design
Adapted bathrooms don't have to look clinical. We finish every install like a high-end bathroom — because it is one.
Disabled Facilities Grant (DFG) friendly
We work alongside Occupational Therapists and council DFG teams — full paperwork, itemised quotes, VAT-relief where eligible.
150+ Checkatrade reviews
5-star workmanship on every install. Same team, same standard, from initial survey to final handover.
Solihull local guide
Adapted bathrooms in Solihull — what actually matters here
Solihull homes tend to be larger, which opens up options a smaller property doesn't have — converting a downstairs cloakroom into a full shower room, or splitting a big family bathroom into a wet room plus separate WC. Clients here almost always want the adaptation to be invisible: safe to use, but indistinguishable from a high-spec bathroom.
Adaptation without the clinical look
Brushed brass or matte black grab rails, wall-hung comfort-height sanitaryware, large-format porcelain and concealed cisterns. Everything meets the same safety brief — it just doesn't read as a hospital bathroom.
Cloakroom to shower room conversions
Where a downstairs WC already exists, extending it into a level-access shower room is often faster and less disruptive than adapting upstairs — and it future-proofs the ground floor.
Self-funding without the wait
If you'd rather not wait on an assessment, we can survey, design and book the work directly. Most Solihull adaptations we do this way start within weeks, not months.
Disabled Facilities Grant · Solihull
Solihull Metropolitan Borough Council
Solihull MBC administers Disabled Facilities Grants for the borough, with Occupational Therapy assessments arranged through adult social care. Many Solihull clients self-fund instead, which removes the waiting time entirely — we're equally set up for both.
The mandatory DFG maximum in England is £30,000. Self-funded work has no cap and no assessment queue.

Adapted bathroom FAQ
Solihull disability bathroom — common questions
Do you work with Disabled Facilities Grant (DFG) applications?
Yes — regularly. We provide fully itemised written quotes that map onto DFG paperwork, work alongside Occupational Therapists and council teams in West Midlands, and can attend joint site visits. Standard DFG covers up to £30,000 towards essential adaptations.
Which council handles Disabled Facilities Grants in Solihull?
Disabled Facilities Grants in Solihull are administered by Solihull Metropolitan Borough Council. An Occupational Therapist from the council's adult social care team assesses what's needed, the council runs the grant application and means test, and quotes are then requested against the OT's written recommendation. We price against the OT recommendation line by line so Solihull Metropolitan Borough Council can process the quote without going back and forth.
How long does a level-access shower conversion take?
Most bath-to-shower conversions take 5–8 working days from strip-out to final clean. Full adapted bathrooms with reconfigured layouts run 10–15 days. You'll have a realistic timeline before we book you in.
Can an adapted bathroom still look high-spec?
Absolutely. Modern grab rails come in brushed brass, matte black or chrome — not just hospital white. Comfort-height WCs and wall-hung basins look sleeker than standard sanitaryware. Every M3 Trades adapted bathroom is finished to the same standard as our premium installs.
Do you claim VAT relief on eligible works?
Yes — where the person the bathroom is being adapted for is chronically sick or disabled (as defined by HMRC), qualifying works are zero-rated for VAT. We handle the declaration and adjust the quote accordingly.
Which Solihull postcodes do you cover?
We cover all of B90–B94, B37 and the surrounding West Midlands area — including Shirley, Dorridge, Knowle, Olton and beyond. Free home assessment within 48 hours.
Do I have to go through the council to adapt my Solihull bathroom?
No. Many Solihull clients self-fund, which avoids the assessment and means-test queue entirely. If you do want to apply, Solihull MBC administers Disabled Facilities Grants and we'll quote to match the OT recommendation.
Will an accessible bathroom affect my property value in Solihull?
A well-specified level-access shower room is simply a modern shower room — flush trays, wall-hung units and rails in a designer finish are mainstream now. We'd never fit anything that dates the property.
