Our £10 Gift Voucher: making accessories accessible


We've got three gift vouchers available through our website and Facebook page, and we’d love you to take full advantage of them.

As they range in value, we thought we’d write a blog post regarding our £10 voucher. The £10 voucher has a minimum spend limit of £45, which is relatively low, allowing you the versatility to maybe purchase an item you might not usually buy.

Bathroom accessories can sometimes be a difficult purchase – they’re products you don’t necessarily wish to buy – like petrol, you seem to get minimum enjoyment from their basic functions.

Some accessories on the other hand can really brighten up your new installation, add storage, and in some cases, be a quirky focal point.

At Bathroom City, we have a huge range off extras; from toilet seats to tumblers and a collection of fashionable accessories which are bound to make a substantial difference in your suite.

How the right selection of accessories can contribute to style and storage
As customers, we often steer clear of paying over the odds for basics such as towel rails or robe hooks - sometimes we settle for budget accessories which don’t stand the test of time in either style or durability: having to replace them before you know it.

That said, with our £10 gift voucher you could make a purchase on an accessory which will tick the above boxes. An illuminated mirror for example, is a distinct style choice which can be the focal point of your suite.

The Hex Illuminated Mirror is the perfect choice for adding light and practicality to the bathroom, and, with its affordable price tag will provide a luxury contemporary look for a low price – a great choice when purchased with a gift voucher.

Moreover, the Elite Illuminated Round Mirror provides an alternate contemporary design, with its circular design and inset lighting; the mirror could be the eye catching product to finish your bathroom.

Proper Bathroom storage is often replaced by the practicalities provided by the basin, top of the toilet and other shelf-shaped entities. These quick fixes often lead to toothpaste stains, cluttered sides and an all round manifestation of dusty unused bathroom products that need throwing away.

One of the best ways to keep your bathroom clean and in check is buy purchasing a bath and shower caddy. These simple but elegant solutions come at a small price but offer big advantages to space and storage, ideal for cluttered bathrooms.

The Multi Function Bathroom Shelf is just £99 and provides all the space needed to home your bathroom essentials, de-cluttering and also offering an integrated mirror, towel rail, tumbler holder and soap holder – all you need for a clean practical suite.

For a more personalised look, try combining a number of cheaper accessories, such as a tumbler holder, soap holder and soap dispenser, to create your perfect selection of practicalities – Bathroom City has a full range on offer that will help to keep your basin area looking tidy and functional.

Finally, high quality toilet seats are often overlooked for cheaper options, but again, purchasing from one of our top brands will guarantee you long lasting appeal – so go on, take a look at those accessories you skip past with the added bonus of our £10 gift voucher, we've made some of our more expensive accessories accessible.

Bathrooms for the disabled.


Living with the pressure of a disability can make everyday endevours that most people take for granted seem so much more challenging. Whether you've found yourself learning to live with a disability or whether it's something that you've been living with all of your life, there are so many simple changes that can be made in your home, which can make day to day tasks not only easier but safer too. The bathroom has the potential to be a hazardous room but just a few simple changes can give you back your independence.

If your bathroom is tiled, it might be easier to keep clean but water on a hard surface can become a trip hazard. If you notice one of your taps has started to drip or one of the pipes have started to leak you need to get it fixed as soon as possible. Keep a towel rail next to your basin and show/bath so you're not dripping water across the floor.

Water isn't the only thing that can cause you to fall in the bathroom; mats can be serious tripping hazards too. If you do have a tiled floor, rubber matting is cheap and sits just under the mat to stop it slipping and some tape especially for mats can be applied to help prevent tripping if they curl up. These are both very cheap and easy solutions that can have a dramatic impact on you safety.

Grab rails, although a little more expensive than rubber matting, are still cheap. They can install next to the toilet, bath, shower, basin or anywhere where you feel you might need a little extra support. Strong plastic ones are often easier to install as they don't need to be earth bound, if you need a grab rail installed in a stud wall and you're worried it won't be strong enough, a floor to ceiling pole would perform the same job.

If turning the taps has become too hard, consider fitting taps with leavers, which don't need as much pressure as regular taps. If these are also too difficult, taps with sensors can be fitted, although they are a bit more expensive, they can make your life much simpler.

Although you may be reluctant to relinquish any more freedom and privacy than you're already had too, you may want to consider removing the lock from the bathroom door. If the worst were to happen, and you did fall or hurt yourself, quick access would be needed. A simple policy of always leaving the bathroom door open if it's empty (and therefore only closed when it's in use) could quickly be established.

These are fairly simple changes, which can be easily implemented to make your bathroom safer and they can have a huge difference and make your life a lot easier, however you may need to make more dramatic changes to your bathroom for it to be truly safe.

Walk in baths and wet rooms may be more expensive but they are something that should be considered if you're struggling with your bathroom. A walk in bath would mean you wouldn't have to try and step over the side of the bath anymore, a small door, which can be easily opened and closed is fitted into the side of the bath, it's completely water tight and can also be fitted with a seat so you don't have to lower yourself in and out the bath making bathing a lot easier for anyone with motability problems.

A wet room would transform your entire bathroom. A wet room would mean your floor would be fitted with a drain allowing the water to drain away and tiling would make your whole bathroom water proof. A wet room is normally all on the same level making it wheel chair accessible. Wet rooms are often easier to clean and maintain than a regular bathroom and can give anyone with motability problems more safety and freedom when it comes to bathing.

Vertical Bathroom

Here's something to be amazed by on a rainy Wednesday afternoon- The Vertebrae Vertical Bathroom. 
Occupying a mere 4.3 square feet, this "Swiss Army Knife Bathroom" takes space conservation to a whole new level, packing a toilet, sink, cistern, two storage units and two shower heads into one compact system.

We think it's a brilliant idea, but what about you?
