Accessible Home Grants Limerick Homeowners Can Use
If you or a family member needs changes made to the home due to mobility, disability or long-term health needs, grant support may be available through your local authority. These accessible home grants and bathroom grants can help with works that make a home safer, easier to access and more suitable for everyday living.
At Pro Renovations, we work with homeowners across Limerick and surrounding areas who need practical home improvements such as accessible bathrooms, level-access showers, ramps, wider access areas, grab rails and ground-floor facilities.
For many families, these works are not just about convenience. They can make it easier for someone to remain living safely and comfortably in their own home.
Bathroom Grants & Disability Home Renovation Grants in Limerick
If you or a family member needs a safer, more accessible bathroom, there are bathroom grants in Limerick that can help with the cost. The main scheme is the Housing Adaptation Grant for People with a Disability, which can fund a grant for a disabled bathroom — such as a level-access shower, a ground-floor toilet or wider wheelchair access. These disability home renovation grants are means-tested and administered by Limerick City and County Council. Pro Renovations carries out the building work to the required standard and provides the clear written quotation you need for your application. You can also read about the Housing Adaptation Grant and the Mobility Aids Grant.
Home Accessibility Works That May Be Covered
The official Housing Adaptation Grant for Disabled People may support a range of works where they are required to make a home more suitable for a person’s needs.
Depending on the property and approval from Limerick City and County Council, eligible works may include:
Accessible Bathrooms
A safer bathroom layout can include a level-access shower, non-slip flooring, grab rails, improved spacing and easier-to-use fixtures. See our mobility bathrooms and walk-in showers.
Ground-Floor Toilets or Bathrooms
Where stairs are a difficulty, a downstairs toilet or bathroom can make the home much more practical.
Access Ramps
External ramps can improve access to the home, particularly where steps or uneven entrances create daily challenges.
Wheelchair Access Improvements
Some homes may need wider circulation space, doorway changes or layout improvements to make movement easier.
Stairlifts or Through-Floor Lifts
Where suitable, lift solutions may help improve access between floors.
Extensions for Accessibility
In some cases, a home may need additional space, such as a ground-floor bedroom or bathroom.
The right solution will depend on the person’s needs, the layout of the property and the grant approval process.
Grant Amounts and Eligibility
The grant is means-tested and assessed by the local authority. The current maximum support is up to €40,000, or up to 100% of the approved cost of works if your household income is under €37,500 (under the rules that changed on 1 December 2024). The percentage tapers as household income rises and the grant is not available where income is over €75,000.
The amount awarded depends on household income, the type of works required and the decision of the local authority. Lower-income households may qualify for a higher percentage of support.
Pro Renovations does not decide grant eligibility, but we can help you understand the renovation works involved and provide a clear quotation for the works we carry out.
Accessible Renovations in Limerick
Homes across Limerick vary greatly in age, layout and condition. Some properties may only need a bathroom upgrade or access improvements, while others may require more extensive internal renovation.
A well-planned project can make the home safer without making it feel clinical or institutional. Good design matters. An accessible bathroom, wet room or ground-floor facility should be practical, easy to clean and finished to a high standard.
Our team can help with bathroom renovation, tiling, plumbing, carpentry, internal alterations and finishing works. Where specialist equipment or additional professionals are required, those elements should be planned into the project from the beginning.
