    Contact your local council. There are a number of tradesmen who can help you- ask the council for details or look online. As always check all references carefully and get four or five names to email or call.

    Just want to wish you luck, as I have severe arthritis in both knees waiting on 2 knee replacements so it’s a nightmare getting in and out the bath, hope you get it sorted.
