Challenges of Retrofitting Accessibility Features in Older Homes
Adapting older homes for accessibility is essential for individuals with mobility challenges, but structural limitations, heritage restrictions, and outdated systems often make modifications complex. Retrofitting solutions include step-free access, widened doorways, and adapted bathrooms, yet these must be carefully planned to balance functionality with preserving the home’s character. Compliance with Part M of the Building Regulations and budget constraints add further challenges. Loomin simplifies this process by connecting homeowners with fixed-fee, ARB-registered architects specialising in accessibility. From comparing quotes to managing compliance, Loomin ensures a seamless and expert-led approach to creating a safe, inclusive, and future-proof home.
