How do I decide between a bath mixer, a bath shower mixer and traditional bath pillar taps?

A bath mixer blends hot and cold into one outlet for simple filling, so it’s great if you want neat temperature control from a single spout. A bath shower mixer adds a diverter and a handset on a hose so you can rinse hair or use a quick hand-shower without a full shower enclosure. Bath pillar taps give a classic two-tap look with separate hot and cold controls, which suits traditional baths but makes temperature adjustment less immediate. If you need practicality for family bathing or hair washing, a bath shower mixer is usually the most versatile option.

Can I fit freestanding taps to a freestanding bath and what should I check first?

Yes, freestanding taps sit on floor-mounted standpipes and are specifically designed for freestanding baths, giving a sculptural, gallery look. Check the spout reach and height so the water falls into the centre of your bath, and confirm your floor can accommodate the fixings. Also make sure the tap’s pressure suitability matches your system so you get good flow from the handset and spout. A Boden freestanding mixer works well if you want a statement brass or chrome fitting with proper reach.

Should I choose wall-mounted or deck-mounted bath taps, and how many tap holes will I need?

Deck-mounted taps sit on the bath rim and are the most common option, while wall-mounted taps are fixed to the wall above the bath and free up the bath edge for bottles or a slimmer rim. Tap-hole requirements vary by design: single-hole mixers, two-hole twin-lever sets and three-plus hole valve configurations are all available, so match the fitting to the holes on your bath or bath filler panel. If your bath rim is narrow or you have an inset filler, a wall-mounted or freestanding tap may be the better choice.

Which pressure suitability and control type should I pick for a steady temperature from a bath shower mixer?

For stable water temperature and safety, thermostatic valves are best because they maintain your chosen temperature even if pressure fluctuates. Check the product’s pressure suitability: low (0.1–0.4 bar), medium (0.5–0.9 bar) or high (1 bar+), or “suitable for all systems” if you prefer flexibility. Single-lever mixers are simple to use, while thermostatic mixers usually combine temperature control with flow control, ideal if multiple people use your bathroom. If you have low mains pressure, pick a model explicitly rated for low-pressure systems or consider boosting performance with a pump.

How do I choose a finish and style that will look good and be easy to care for?

Match finish to your bathroom style: chrome is classic and easy to keep clean, matte black or brushed brass make a contemporary statement and contrast well with white sanitaryware. Some finishes, such as brushed brass or black, show water spots differently and need gentle, non-abrasive cleaners to avoid marking. Also think about shape: modern round or square designs suit minimalist schemes, while waterfall spouts add a designer look but may splash more. If you have hard water, favour chrome or finishes with an easy-clean coating to reduce limescale build-up.

Bath Taps

Of all the bathroom taps the bath tap has the greatest number of different types. The bath filler is the simplest, a hot and cold control feeding a single outlet that mixes the water before it enters the bath. The bath shower mixer has a diverter that allows the mixed water to be directed to a shower handset on the end of a hose. This is used for washing hair without needing a full shower. Bath pillar taps are seperate taps for hot and cold water. All types can also be mounted directly on the bath, on the wall or as freestanding taps on standpipes. The freestanding taps are popular with freestanding baths.
