Changing Places Adaptations

Specialist CP Contractors.

Full turnkey service.

Complex Internal Adaptions

We’re unique within the Changing Places arena. We stand as one of the very few organisations with the experience and expertise to fully own complex projects — modular, traditional build or adaptation. Through our people and a select group of subcontractors, we have the capabilities to provide a full turnkey service for most projects.

Project Management

Full management of the project from architecture to managing timescales, including any associated processes such as fire safety, building regulations, and health & safety. We oversee daily activities to ensure everything is going to plan and provide regular updates.

Construction Expertise

RISE provide every service you can imagine when it comes to your build. From electricians and plumbers to structural engineering, we have wide ranging capabilities to ensure every element of your project is completed on time and on budget.

Specialist Equipment

We aren’t tied into any equipment manufacturer, so you are able to take your pick from a wide range of suppliers and specialist equipment. Ranging from budget friendly to premium, we source and install equipment to suit the needs of your users and your budget.

“Adapting the space we already had was a very good compromise. Looking at the new Changing Places toilet you wouldn’t know it hadn’t always been there, which is a good sign we got it right.”

Graham Law — Chief Engineer

The National Space Centre

Our Capabilities

RISE is one of the only Changing Places providers with the capability to provide a full internal adaptation. From planning, through the build process, selecting equipment, and those final finishing touches, we carry out all works ourselves. This eliminates the need for you to source different suppliers or sub-contractors – we do it all for you.

Get Ready with RISE

With our capabilities, adapting an existing space and installing a new Changing Places toilet is made easy, here is what happens after our initial consultation…

1

We help find a location suitable for an internal adaption. A quote is provided plus drawings showing how the new toilet and required equipment will fit into the existing building.

2

We start building works to make your space suitable to house a fully compliant Changing Places toilet, including ceiling height, room dimensions, and door position.

3

Once building works are complete, we second fix all specialist equipment and complete finishing touches. We’ll also provide training and register your facility.

Why Adapt?

Choosing whether to adapt an internal space into a Changing Places toilet or install a modular facility will usually come down to the space you have and how your site is used. If your business occupies a single building and you have an existing space, it makes sense to adapt it. Businesses that utilise outdoor space, may find a modular solution more beneficial.

Budget can also be a factor in your decision, but there’s no need to worry if you aren’t sure which option is best for you. Our team can help you reach a decision that balances the needs of your customers, the constraints of your site or building, and your budget.
