Wall Hung Basins

Wall hung basins are one of the most popular choices in modern bathroom design. By mounting directly to the wall without a pedestal or vanity unit, a wall-hung basin creates a clean, open floor space that makes any bathroom feel larger. This type is particularly well suited to compact bathrooms, en-suites, and contemporary interiors where a minimalist look is the priority.

Our wall hung basins are available in a range of widths, tap hole configurations, and finishes. Most models are compatible with standard bottle traps and wall-mounted or deck-mounted taps, giving you maximum flexibility when planning your bathroom layout. For matching taps and wastes, browse our bathroom taps collection.

Countertop Basins

A countertop basin sits on top of a vanity unit or worktop surface, creating a striking focal point in the bathroom. This type of basin is widely used in luxury residential bathrooms, boutique hotels, and high-specification commercial washrooms where design impact is as important as function.

Our countertop basin range includes oval, round, and rectangular shape basins in sizes from 42cm to 55cm. Available in white ceramic and select alternative finishes, these basins pair beautifully with wall-mounted taps and bespoke vanity storage units. Check individual listings for full projection depth dimensions.

Pedestal Basins

Pedestal basins remain a classic choice for traditional and period-style bathrooms. The full pedestal conceals the waste and supply pipework beneath the basin, providing a neat, self-contained installation that requires no additional furniture or storage unit.

We stock a range of pedestal basins in full, half, and slimline pedestal formats. Half pedestal options offer a more contemporary take on the traditional design, partially concealing pipework while leaving floor space visible. All pedestal basins in our range are finished in white and available in a variety of sizes to suit different bathroom layouts.

Semi-Recessed & Slimline Basins

Semi-recessed basins inset into a vanity unit offer a practical solution where worktop storage is needed but floor space is limited. The basin partially sits within the vanity unit, reducing the overall projection into the room while still providing useful surface area around the basin for taps, soap, and accessories.

Slimline hand basins are designed for the most compact installations — ideal for cloakrooms, utility rooms, and tight en-suite spaces where a standard basin would be too large. Available with one or two tap holes, slimline basins deliver full functionality in a reduced footprint, with widths starting from 38cm.

Corner Basins

Corner basins are engineered to fit neatly into the corner of a room, making them the most space-efficient option available. Particularly popular in small cloakrooms and downstairs WCs, corner basins allow you to maximise usable floor area without compromising on a functional washbasin.

Our corner basin range is available in white ceramic with options for one or two tap holes. Matching corner pedestal options are available to complete the installation.

Accessibility Basins

We stock a range of basins designed to meet accessibility requirements for users with mobility needs. Wall-mounted and semi-recessed options are available with horizontal outlets, reduced projection depths, and no-overflow configurations to suit care homes, accessible bathrooms, and commercial washrooms.

Available in 38cm and 50cm widths, these bathroom washbasins comply with relevant accessibility guidelines and are suitable for both residential adaptations and commercial specification projects.

How to Choose the Right Basins

The right type of basin depends on the size of your bathroom, your storage requirements, and the overall design you're working towards.

• Wall hung basins — best for modern bathrooms where floor space and a clean aesthetic are the priority.
• Pedestal basins — ideal for traditional bathrooms or where pipework concealment is needed without a vanity unit.
• Countertop basin — the maximum impact option for luxury bathrooms, pairs best with wall-mounted taps.
• Semi-recessed basins — the best of both worlds where some storage is needed but space is limited.
• Corner basins — the most space-efficient type, designed for cloakrooms and compact WCs.

Frequently Asked Questions for Basins

What is the difference between a basin and a bathroom sink?

The terms basin and bathroom sinks are used interchangeably in the UK. Both refer to the same product — a fixed washbasin installed in a bathroom or cloakroom.

What size basin do I need?

Standard full-size basins range from 50cm to 65cm in width. For compact spaces such as cloakrooms and en-suites, slimline and corner basins are available from 38cm wide. Check the projection depth on each product listing before purchasing.

How many tap holes should a basin have?

Most basins are available with one tap hole (for a monobloc mixer tap), two tap holes (for separate hot and cold pillar taps), or no tap holes (for wall-mounted taps). Check tap compatibility before purchasing to ensure the correct fit.

Are wall hung basins difficult to install?

Wall hung basins require secure fixing into a solid wall or a dedicated wall frame carrier system. On stud partition walls, a concealed steel frame is typically required. Installation should be carried out by a qualified plumber or bathroom fitter to ensure safe fixing and correct waste connections.
