How Much Can an Accessible Bathroom Cost?

Creating an accessible bathroom is more than just a home upgrade — it’s about improving quality of life, independence, and comfort. At AJT Showers, we’ve helped families across the South East transform their bathrooms into spaces that are not only safe and practical but also stylish and personal to them.

We understand that no two bathrooms — or customers — are the same. Every installation we complete is designed entirely around individual needs, lifestyle, and taste. Whether it’s a walk-in shower, walk-in bath, or a full wet room, your project is tailored from start to finish to suit you.

What Does an Accessible Bathroom Cost in 2025?

Costs can vary depending on layout, size, and the level of adaptation required. Below is a general guide to what you can expect:

Adaptation Type	Estimated Cost Range
Walk-In Shower	£4,000 – £8,000+
Walk-In Bath	£4,000 – £7,500+
Wet Room	£6,000 – £12,000+

These estimates include design, supply, and installation. Each project is unique — so the final cost depends on the size of your space, your chosen finishes, and any accessibility features such as grab rails, slip-resistant flooring, or seating.

What Affects the Cost?

A few factors influence the final price of your accessible bathroom:

Layout and plumbing – older or compact bathrooms may require rerouting pipework.
Materials and finishes – from classic white panels to premium marble-effect finishes, every choice makes a difference.
Accessibility features – low-level trays, safety flooring, grab rails, and fold-down seating all add comfort and independence.
Electrical upgrades – new lighting or extractor fans may be recommended for safety and efficiency.
