The problem
Wet, hard surfaces and awkward heights make the bathroom the trickiest room in the house. The good news is that the changes that help most are usually small, affordable and do not need a builder.
What to consider
- Where the unsteady moments actually happen, whether that is stepping in, standing, or turning.
- Whether the space is shared, and what suits everyone who uses it.
- What can be added without drilling, if you rent or want a change you can reverse.
A steadier way to shower
For anyone who finds standing through a whole shower tiring, a seat makes a real difference. A rotating shower seat, such as the CareCo 360 Rotating Shower Seat, also makes it easier to turn and get seated. Check the space and the weight guidance before buying.
