Four working showers
Enclosures plumbed with warm water, so you can feel the difference between a rainfall head and a handset. Towels are at the desk.
Stand in the shower before you buy it
Basin and Bath is a bathroom showroom with twenty two room sets, four showers that really run and a design desk. Buy taps, vanities and screens online, or book a design appointment and leave with a drawn plan, a written price and an honest lead time.

What is set up on the showroom floor
Most bathrooms are bought from a brochure and regretted in the first week. Here you can turn the taps, sit in the baths and stand under the water before a single piece is ordered.
Twenty two room sets
Complete bathrooms from a 1.6 m cloakroom to a large family room, each labelled with its size and the price of every piece in it.
Baths to sit in
Shoes off and try them. Length, depth and the slope behind your back matter more than the photo suggests.
The tap wall
Sixty basin and bath taps in chrome, nickel and black, mounted on real basins so you can see the splash and the reach.
Mirrors and lighting
Lit mirrors and ceiling lights rated for bathrooms, shown in a darkened bay so you can judge the glow at night.
Panels and tiles
Wall panels and tiles on swing boards, with cut samples to borrow and hold up against your paint.
Ready to order: vanities, showers and baths
These pieces are kept in stock or made by the maker in a few weeks. Stock and prices change through the year, so the price shown at checkout is the one that holds.

Price on enquiry
EnquireThe checkout prices delivery by the bulk of the order. Baths, screens and vanity units come on a two person van on a booked day.
How long each piece takes to arrive
A lead time is the gap between a paid order and the delivery day. It moves with the season and the maker, so the design desk confirms it on the day you order and again when the goods are ready.
| What you order | Usual lead time | Why it takes that long |
|---|---|---|
| Stock taps, rails and basins | 3 working days | Held in our own warehouse |
| Vanity units in a standard finish | 2 to 3 weeks | Made in batches by the furniture maker |
| Shower screens in standard widths | 2 to 4 weeks | Glass is toughened to order |
| Screens cut to your measurements | 5 to 7 weeks | The room is surveyed before the glass is cut |
| Cast iron or stone baths | 8 to 12 weeks | Cast, finished and shipped by the maker |
| Fitted furniture painted to order | 6 to 8 weeks | Built and painted for your walls |
Ordered everything but the room is not ready? Delivered goods can wait in our warehouse for up to eight weeks at no charge.
How a design appointment runs
Ninety minutes at the design desk, with the room sets a few steps away.
Bring the room
Measure the walls, the window and the spot where the waste pipe leaves the room, and note which way the door opens.
Plan at the desk
A designer draws the room to scale, tries two or three layouts and walks you to the displays that fit them.
Price and lead times
You leave with a written list, a price and the lead time for each piece, held for 30 days.
Survey before cutting
Before anything made to measure is ordered, a surveyor checks the room. The $90 visit is taken off the order.
Order and delivery day
A 25% deposit places the order, and the balance is paid before the delivery day is booked.
Installation by trades we know, quoted separately
Basin and Bath designs and sells bathrooms; it does not fit them. If you ask, we pass your plan and product list to independent installers who have fitted our ranges before, and they visit, quote and are paid by you directly.
Plumbing, electrics near water and changes to drains fall under rules that vary by country, so check that whoever you choose is qualified for each part of the work. The showroom stays your contact for missing parts, damaged items and guarantee claims on what we sold.
- Your plan passed to the installer on request
- Deliveries held until the old room is stripped out
- Parts and guarantee claims handled by the showroom
From people who stood under the water first (example reviews)
Trying the showers settled an argument in two minutes: the big rainfall head felt lovely but soaked everything, so the handset won. The plan from the desk fitted our awkward loft bathroom first time.
They told us the cast iron bath would take ten weeks before we paid, and it arrived in nine. The goods sat in their warehouse until our installer was ready.
Bought the vanity from room set 7 after seeing the drawers open properly around the trap. Delivery came on the day booked, with two people to carry it upstairs.
Room sets on the floor this season
Sets are refreshed twice a year, and the ones that come out are sold as seen.
Questions at the design desk
Do we need an appointment to look round?
No. The floor is open to walk round in opening hours, and staff answer questions on the spot. Appointments are for planning a whole room at the design desk, which takes about ninety minutes.
Can we buy a display?
Room sets change twice a year, and the pieces that come out are sold as seen at a reduced price. Ask the desk for the current list, which changes as sets are swapped.
What if a piece is discontinued after we order?
If a maker withdraws a product before delivery, we offer the nearest match at the same price or hand back the deposit for that item.
Will a rainfall shower work in our home?
Large heads need enough water pressure and flow. Bring the make of your boiler or water heater, and the desk will suggest sets that suit it; your installer should confirm on site, because water systems differ from country to country.
Can things come back?
Stock pieces still sealed in the maker's carton can come back within 30 days. Pieces made or cut to order, and anything already fitted, cannot.
How are pieces guaranteed?
Each maker sets its own guarantee, and the terms for every piece are printed on your order. Your rights as a buyer also depend on where you live.
Book a design appointment
Tell us about the room and choose a day and a part of the day. The design desk rings or emails you back, normally on the following working day, to settle the time. Booking the appointment costs nothing; the $90 survey only follows if you decide to go ahead.
- Ninety minutes with a designer
