When planning an accessible bathroom, the total cost depends heavily on whether you are making minor adjustments or installing high-end, motorized equipment. At Wash-Able, we specialise in supplying the technology that makes independent living possible, from extra load smart toilets to rise & fall sinks.
Because we are a supply-only specialist, the prices below reflect the cost of the products themselves. You will also need to factor in the cost of a private installer or plumber to complete the work.
Breaking Down the Product Costs
The price of accessible equipment varies based on the level of assistance required. Below are typical starting prices for our most popular solutions.
- Rise & fall toilets: A complete system like the Washloo Levitate, which includes an adjustable height cistern and a smart toilet typically starts at around £1,412.50 (with VAT relief) just for the lifting cistern. You can add a standard Wall Hung toilet and seat for £1,579.17 or a fully integrated Washloo smart toilet with auto flushing, etc for £2,745.83.
- Extra load smart toilets: For those seeking the combined benefits of a bidet and heavy-duty durability, standalone smart toilets like the Odissey start at approximately £829.17.
- Rise & fall sinks: Motorised, height-adjustable basins designed for wheelchair users start from £1,495.83.
- Toilet seat risers and supports: Smaller adaptations are very cost-effective. A standard 50mm toilet seat riser starts at £41.66, while versions with integrated grab rails or support arms range between £125 and £330.
- Grab rails: Individual stylish alloy support arms and rails start from £49.99.
Saving VAT Relief
It is important to note that most of our customers qualify for VAT relief. If you are purchasing equipment for use by someone with a chronic illness or disability, you likely won’t have to pay full VAT on these products. The prices listed on our site often show the VAT-exempt price to help you budget more accurately.
Additional Costs to Consider
While Wash-Able provides the hardware, you should budget separately for:
- Professional Installation: As we do not install, we recommend getting quotes from local tradespeople experienced in accessible plumbing.
- Occupational Therapy Assessment: Before purchasing, it is wise to consult an OT to ensure the specific height and weight capacities of the lifting toilet seats or sinks meet your physical needs.
