Changing your bathroom taps is a great way to give your suite a new lease of life. Perhaps you’re tired of your current bathroom aesthetic or maybe you’re searching for a more convenient way to shower in your bath. Either way, we’ve got a selection of the best bath taps for you to choose from, including:

Overwhelmed by choice? Don’t panic! We’ll explain everything about our wide range of bath taps below.

Pillar Taps

Pillar Taps require two tap holes to be cut, meaning if you currently own a bath with a single hole but have no plans to replace it, you won’t be able to mount these taps.

However, if you’re looking to replace the bath and get a new set of taps, or your current bath has two holes cut already, pillar taps can easily be added.

Our baths do not come pre-drilled so pillar taps can be mounted on any bath of your choice! Your plumber will drill the tap holes during installation, so be sure to buy the taps alongside the bath – otherwise, it’ll be difficult to install!

In general, these types of taps lean towards a more traditional style which is perfect if you have or are looking to create a traditional suite. Our Ashwick Crosshead Taps, £44.97 are prime examples of traditional pillar bath taps. The solid brass core and chrome plating provide a stunning shine and a body which will last for years. Not to mention, we even offer a guarantee on these taps for 10 years!

Bath Filler Mixer Taps

Bath Filler Mixer Taps are similar to pillar taps except they have a single open spout for both hot and cold water. The water is mixed together inside the tap, which is where the name comes from. This type of tap is ideal for people who prefer precise control over water pressure and temperature, which makes Filler Mixer Taps a great option for families in particular.

Our bath filler taps are available in modern, traditional and contemporary designs to suit almost any bathroom suite. With solid brass cores, chrome finishes, ceramic disc technology and an industry-leading 10 years ‘Fit and Forget’ guarantee, what’s not to love?

The Ebor Bath Filler Mixer Tap, £64.97 is the perfect modern tap for the modern bathroom.

Bath Shower Mixer Taps

Looking for a tap with a built-in shower hand-unit? Our Bath Shower Mixer Taps are perfect for you! With a style to suit every taste, these taps are ideal for your bathroom suite and provide a handheld showerhead unit for easy rinsing after your bath. Bath shower mixer taps are manufactured with not only appearance in mind, but also build quality too.

Whether you’re looking for a sharp-edged tap, or a tap to complement a traditional freestanding bath and suite, there’s enough choice to suit every need!

Our Fiuto Nero Modern Bath Shower Mixer, £134.97 is a modern black masterpiece with a solid brass core and matt black finish for that contemporary new bathroom you've been dreaming of. Perfect for a modern bathroom suite with black fixtures, dare to be different!

Waterfall Bath Taps

Just as the name leads you to believe, these taps become the main feature of your bathroom suite. The specially crafted spout creates a waterfall-like appearance, which doesn’t reduce functionality and adds an extremely modern touch to your bathroom suite.

Starting from as little as £64.97, waterfall taps are extremely affordable and offer a unique twist to your bathroom which will not go out of style for years to come.

The Edessa Modern Waterfall Bath Filler Mixer, £79.97 is a stunning example of a waterfall bath tap. The large flat faces of the chrome exterior add light to much-needed corners, brightening up your suite and adding to the illusion of extra space.

Freestanding Bath Taps

Freestanding bath taps offer a truly unique experience, unlike any other. As well as looking clean and minimal, these taps feature ceramic disc technology, a solid brass core, and a handheld shower unit for quick and easy rinsing at the press of a button.

Freestanding bath taps are designed to be used with certain freestanding baths, such as our Yang 1785x835mm Luxury Freestanding Bath, which cannot be drilled for installing regular taps. The Nairn Freestanding Bath Shower Mixer Tap, £144.97 stands at 1060mm from the floor, giving you plenty of space to position and install it over your bath and bathe with ease.

With plenty of bath taps to choose from, it’s important to get it right the first time. Hopefully, you’ve found this article helpful but in case you need any more inspiration, check out our Facebook for more helpful tips!
