Small bathroom FAQs

What type of sink is best with a small bathroom? 

Arguably, corner sinks are the best space-saving option in terms of floor space because they utilise an area of the bathroom that is typically just wasted space. We stock both pedestal corner units and wall-mounted corner basins to suit all bathroom aesthetics.  

If you need something more narrow to fit snug against a wall, then slim rectangular wash basins are ideal. Their elongated design means they take up very little space in terms of depth, but you’ll still have plenty of space to store things like soap or toothbrushes and wash your hands comfortably. 

We stock a brilliant range of compact, space-saving basins and accessories here at Bathroom & Beyond. Find yours today!

A bathroom sink, or basin, is essentially a large bowl in which you wash your hands. Even the most sophisticated and quirky designs won’t stray too far from this basic notion. What differentiates the various types of sink is their design and how they work within the space of your bathroom.

With that in mind, we’ve put together a guide to the types of bathroom sink we supply here at Bathroom & Beyond.

When it comes to choosing a new bath for your bathroom, one of the first decisions you’ll need to make is whether you go for a single-ended or double-ended bath. Each style has its own unique characteristics, and the choice of style can greatly impact your bathing experience.

In this blog, we’ll explore the pros and cons of both single-ended and double-ended baths to help you make an informed decision on which one is best suited to your unique needs and requirements.

Single-ended Baths

Single-ended baths are a classic and popular choice for many homeowners. They are characterised by having one backrest with the tap and waste typically positioned at the other end. Here are some of the advantages and disadvantages of single-ended baths:

Pros:

• Space-saving: Single-ended baths are a great choice for smaller bathrooms or bathrooms with limited space. Since the taps and waste are typically located at one end they can be positioned against a wall, saving space.
• Cost effective: Single-ended baths are often more affordable than their double-ended counterparts, making them an excellent choice for those on a budget.
• Easy to install: The plumbing for single-ended baths is usually simpler, making installation easier and potentially less expensive.
• Comfortable: Many single-ended baths are designed with a sloped backrest, providing a comfortable and relaxed bathing experience.

Cons:

• Limited sharing: If you enjoy sharing your bath with a partner or family bathing, single-ended baths can be less accommodating. The tap end may not be as comfortable for two people.

Double-ended Baths

Double-ended baths are a luxurious and elegant choice for those who prioritise comfort and style. These baths have a central waste and tap placement with two identical, sloped backrests. Let’s explore the pros and cons of double-ended baths:

Pros:

• Roomy and comfortable: Double-ended baths are designed for two people to comfortably share a bath. The symmetrical design ensures that both bathers have equal space and support.
• Relaxing soak: With the central positioning of taps and waste, double-ended baths offer a more symmetrical and spacious soak, providing a luxurious and relaxing experience.
• Elegant design: Double-ended baths often have a sleek, modern design that can enhance the overall look of your bathroom.

Cons:

• Space requirement: Double-ended baths tend to be larger, so they may not be suitable for smaller bathrooms.
• More complex installation: The central placement of taps and waste can make installation more complex and costly, especially if you need to reroute plumbing.

Which bath is right for you?

Choosing between a single-ended and a double ended bath ultimately depends on your individual needs and preferences. Here are some considerations to help you decide:

• Space: If you have limited space in your bathroom, a single-ended bath may be the more practical choice
• Budget: If cost is a significant concern, a single-ended bath is usually more affordable.
• Sharing: If you plan to share your bath with others and prioritise comfort, a double-ended bath is the better option.
• Aesthetics: Consider the overall design and style of your bathroom, and choose a bath that best complements the space.
• Plumbing and installation: Assess your plumbing situation and budget for any necessary modifications or adjustments.

*

In the end, both single-ended and double-ended baths have their merits, and the right choice for you will depend on your unique requirements. Take the time to measure your space, consider your budget, and envision your ideal bathroom to make an informed decision that will leave you happy with your bathroom for years to come.
