Modern Waterfall Bath Taps And Wall Mounted Basin Taps That Suit Contemporary Bathrooms
Trading Depot offers a wide range of modern bathroom taps that suit contemporary homes and work well with a newer bath or modern basin. You can choose simple, stylish pillar taps with a chrome finish, or choose a set with tap features such as bath shower mixer taps, allowing you to easily wash your hair or rinse the bathtub when you’re done.
If you want to upgrade to a luxury bathroom, then one of the best styles among modern bathroom taps are waterfall taps. This contemporary style is one of the most popular wall mounted bath taps, and also helps you get the perfect temperature for your bath every time you switch it on. A waterfall bath can be a great centrepiece to a modern bathroom suite, and if you’re looking for something that’ll be a focal point of your bathroom, these taps can be a great choice.
You could also consider deck mounted taps for a contemporary bathroom. Deck mounted basin taps can be fitted on the basin or fitted into the countertop. This can create a sleek, minimalist look, and can be useful if you only have a small basin in your bathroom. These types of taps are also popular in rooms such as ensuite bathrooms, where you want to keep things simple and elegant and maximise your space.
Traditional Bath Taps To Suit A Period Property’s Bathrooms Style
In the UK, there are many beautiful period properties, and if you own one of these homes, you’ll no doubt want to find traditional bath taps that are in-keeping with the style of your property. That’s why Trading Depot have put together a range of traditional bathroom taps in a number of styles, so you can find the perfect set for your home.
Traditional bath taps tend to be mono taps, so if you have a beautiful clawfoot or roll top bath, then you’ll want to find Victorian bath taps that fit the style, which usually means a mixer tap. These can come fitted with shower mixers, if you want to add a practical, modern feature while keeping the style. We also offer mono basin taps which add a decorative touch to your sink, with features like ceramic accents for vintage look. You can choose taps with white porcelain for a crisp clean look, or darker tones to match the recent trend for black bathroom accessories, which have a retro look.
If you have an older water system in your period home, our low-pressure bathroom taps can help you ensure you get taps that work for you.
New Basin Taps Including Crosswater And Wall Mounted Bath Tap Designs
Updating your taps can give your bathroom a whole new look, and while it may sound complicated, you may be surprised how easy it can be. Many DIY enthusiasts are able to replace their own basin taps, especially if it’s a straightforward, like for life replacement. However, if you’re changing from separate to Crosswater basin taps, or have wall mounted basin taps, you may need help from a plumber.
If you want to replace your wash basin taps, first of all, take a look at the connections. Most taps simply attach to the pipes with a large nut. When it comes to basin taps or kitchen taps, it’s easy to find this connector, and you can usually work out whether it’ll be a simple or complex job.
There are a number of instructional videos online that can help you replace your basin or bath taps, but usually, it simply takes a few steps.
- Shut off your mains water. You should then run your taps through until they are dry, to avoid any accidents
- Find the connector that runs from the old taps to the supply line. This is usually easy if you’re replacing washbasin taps, but bath taps can be trickier to reach! Using a wrench, undo the nut and pull the old taps upwards
- Clean off any dirt, old adhesives and debris around the sink and make sure the supply pipe is in good condition
- Place the taps into the holes and fasten the back nut to keep them in place. You can then attach them to the supply pipe, which can be done using the supply fittings, or copper piping – try to avoid too many twists and turns, as they can stop water from flowing easily
- Turn the water on, then run water through gently and check for leaks, tightening the nuts and connections if needed
If things get too complicated, or you’re unsure about anything, it’s worth speaking to a plumber rather than risking damage. Even a small leak can cause damage, so if you’re carrying out a home renovation, you should consider using professionals if you are worried you might not have the DIY skills.
