Frequently Asked Questions
What's a wall-mounted shower seat?
A fold-down seat fixed to the shower wall. Use it when showering, fold it up when not. Saves standing for the entire shower and reduces slip risk.
Will my wall take it?
Most walls can take a shower seat with proper fixings. We check the wall structure and use appropriate fixings for your bathroom.
Is it different from a shower stool?
Wall-mounted seats are more stable - fixed in place, can't slip. Stools are portable but less secure. Both have their place.
Do you supply the seat?
We can supply or fit one you've purchased. We ensure it's suitable for your shower and properly fixed.
