What Bathing Solutions does
Bathing Solutions is a UK specialist in the design, supply, and installation of accessible bathrooms for elderly and mobility-limited customers, operating as a trading division of Mobility Bathing Group Ltd from its headquarters in Redditch (registered in England, company number 05522263). Founded in 1994, the company is one of the first UK firms to focus exclusively on easy-access bathing and has completed thousands of installations nationwide over more than 30 years. Its product portfolio covers three categories: walk-in showers (e.g., The Baroness, The Elegance, The Empress, The Esprit, The Imperial, The Marquis), walk-in baths with optional powered seat-lift (e.g., The Independence, The Royale, The Serenity, The Majestic, The Petite), and level-access wet rooms, supplemented by complete-bathroom renovation services and luxury add-ons such as Spatherapy, Chromotherapy, and the CosyWarm heated seat.
The underlying product technology centres on safety and accessibility engineering rather than software: ultra-low threshold slip-resistant trays (40mm lip), bi-fold and doorless glass enclosures, thermostatic and digital shower controls (including integration with Mira Platinum wireless systems), battery-backed powered seat lifts rated to 127kg, anti-scald valves, grab rails, and fold-down seats. Wet rooms use linear drains and tanked waterproofing. The company partners with Mira Showers for digital shower technology and with Novuna Personal Finance (Mitsubishi HC Capital UK PLC) for customer credit, and holds trade accreditations with the British Institute of Fitted Interiors Specialists and the Federation of Master Builders.
Bathing Solutions operates a direct-to-consumer, sales-led model. Customers engage via website content, brochure requests, or freephone numbers, leading to a free no-obligation home survey by a mobility bathing specialist, a fixed-price quote, and a fully-fitted installation including plumbing and electrics. Revenue is generated primarily from one-time product sale and installation, with after-sales service as a secondary stream and financing intermediation providing incremental conversion rather than direct margin. Pricing is bespoke and not publicly disclosed. Distribution is single-channel and single-country (UK) via the company's own surveyor and fitter network, with no retail or dealer intermediary. The company is also authorised and regulated by the Financial Conduct Authority (FRN: 673828) as a credit broker.

Bathing Solutions competitors and assessment
Company assessmentDirect peers
- Mobility Plus: Direct UK competitor also specialising in mobility and accessible bathroom solutions (walk-in showers, walk-in baths, wet rooms) with a nationwide D2C home-survey and installation model. Closest like-for-like peer to Bathing Solutions.
- Premier Care in Bathing: Long-established UK specialist in walk-in baths and accessible bathrooms for elderly and less-mobile customers, with a similar in-home sales and installation service. Direct competitor in the same niche.
- EA Mobility: UK provider of mobility bathrooms and home adaptations including walk-in showers and wet rooms, serving elderly and disabled customers through a similar home-survey-driven sales model.
- Bath Mobility: UK specialist retailer/installer of walk-in baths and accessible showers targeting elderly and less-mobile customers, overlapping closely on product range and customer segment.
Others
- Mira Showers: Established UK shower technology brand whose Mira Platinum digital shower is bundled into Bathing Solutions' premium walk-in showers. A key supplier/partner rather than competitor, but a relevant comparable for premium digital shower positioning.
Broad incumbents
- Roman Showers: UK shower enclosure and wet-room manufacturer with accessible product lines (low-threshold trays, level-access solutions). Operates as a broader shower brand supplying trade and retailers, partially overlapping Bathing Solutions' walk-in shower category.
- Victoria Plum: Large UK online bathroom retailer offering walk-in showers, baths and full bathroom suites. Not a mobility specialist but competes for the broader bathroom-renovation budget of the same UK households.
- AKW (AKW Holdings): UK market leader in accessible bathroom and kitchen products (level-access showers, wet-room formers, grab rails). Sells through trade/installers rather than direct-to-consumer, so broader incumbent supplying many of the same end-products Bathing Solutions installs.
Emerging players
- Handicare (now part of Savaria): Provider of accessibility and mobility solutions including stairlifts, ceiling hoists and bathroom accessibility products across Europe. An adjacent emerging player with overlapping end customers (elderly/disabled) and home-safety focus.
Regional players
- Disabled Facilities Group: UK contractor network delivering local-authority-commissioned disabled facilities grant adaptations including bathroom modifications. Represents an alternative route-to-market that competes for the grant-funded segment of Bathing Solutions' demand.
