Mobility Bathroom VAT Exemption - Warwickshire Mobility Bathrooms

Could You Be Eligible for 0% VAT?

At Warwickshire Mobility Bathrooms, we want to make your home renovation as affordable as possible. If you are chronically sick or disabled, you may be eligible for VAT Relief, meaning you pay 0% VAT on the supply and installation of your new Mobility bathroom.

Who Qualifies for VAT Relief?

You can qualify for zero-rated VAT if the bathroom adaptation is for a person who:

Has a physical or mental impairment that has a long-term and substantial effect on their ability to carry out everyday activities.
Has a chronic condition that is treated by the medical profession as a long-term illness (such as Diabetes, Arthritis, MS, or Heart Disease).
Is terminally ill.

Note: VAT relief does not apply to elderly people who are otherwise able-bodied, or to those with temporary disabilities (like a broken leg).

Mobility Walk In Bathroom Bathroom Fitter

What Work is Eligible?

To qualify for the 0% rate, the work must be necessary to suit the condition of the disabled person. This includes:

Walk-in Showers & Wet Rooms: Replacing a traditional bath with a level-access shower or wet room if getting in and out of a bath is difficult.
Walk-in Baths: Installing baths with sealable doors for easier access.
New Ground Floor Bathrooms: Installing a bathroom on the ground floor because the user can no longer safely use the stairs.
Wider Doorways: Widening a bathroom door to allow for wheelchair or walker access.
Associated Work: Essential work directly related to the adaptation—such as necessary tiling, plastering, and plumbing.

How To Apply

No Doctor's Note Needed:

You do not need to provide medical records or a letter from your GP.

The Declaration:

We will provide you with a simple "VAT Relief Declaration" form. You just need to state your name, address, and the nature of your condition.

Vat Removed:

Once the form is signed, we remove the VAT from your quote immediately. You don’t have to "claim it back" from the government—the saving stays in your pocket from day one.

VAT Eligibility Checklist:

Use this checklist to see if you qualify for a significant tax saving on your bathroom renovation. In the UK, you could be eligible for exemption from VAT depending on your circumstances.

Section 1: Are you eligible for 0% VAT?

We can help you easily change your existing bathroom into an accessible bathroom or shower room, offering a free design and quote service, with work starting within four weeks of your order and completed with minimal disruption in less than a week.

To qualify, you must meet both the personal and project criteria below.
1. Personal Eligibility Checklist You qualify if you (or a member of your household):

Chronic Illness: You have a condition that the medical profession treats as a chronic sickness (e.g., Diabetes, Arthritis, MS, Heart Disease, COPD, etc.).

Long-term Disability: You have a physical or mental impairment that has a substantial and long-term effect on your ability to carry out everyday activities.

Terminal Illness: You are terminally ill.

Note: You do not qualify if you only have a temporary injury (like a broken leg) or if you are elderly but otherwise healthy and able-bodied.

2. Project Eligibility Checklist The work must be specifically designed or adapted to help with your condition. Check all that apply:

Bath-to-Shower Conversion: Removing a standard bath and replacing it with a walk-in shower or wet room because of mobility issues.

Walk-in Bath: Installing a bath with a sealable door for easy access.

Ground Floor Installation: Adding a bathroom to the ground floor because you can no longer safely use the stairs.

Widening Access: Widening the bathroom doorway or creating a new entrance for wheelchair/walker access.

Necessary Tiling & Decor: Any tiling, plastering, or plumbing directly required to complete the mobility adaptation.

VAT relief is only for personal and domestic use. It cannot be claimed for bathrooms in business premises or for general home improvements that aren't related to a mobility need.
