The Basics of Selecting and Buying Bathroom Basin Cabinets

Bathroom basin cabinets may not be the first thing to come to mind if space is not an issue, but if you live in a studio setting or a two-bedroom apartment, demarcating separate areas for work, play and living can be difficult. Bathrooms are often the first areas to become cramped because everyone in the house uses them. These are high-traffic areas where you need to store toiletries out of sight and provide the functionality to cater to the hygiene needs of the house occupants.

To help you make the most of these spaces, we share a few design tips and guidance on choosing basin units to meet your functionality needs.

 

One-size-fits-all doesn’t work in the bathing section design

The best design depends on your particular space, style, usage and budget requirements. But if space is limited, consider adding the following to keep the space tidy:

  • Buy smaller shelves or under-bowl cupboards forming part of complete units instead of having full-length built-in cabinets.
  • Store toiletries inside the cupboards instead of open shelves or on the bath edge.
  • Add a towel rack on an empty space of the wall.

 

How to choose the bathroom basin cabinet style to fit the space

Small Basin VanityYou should choose the style according to the available space and bowl size. Fortunately, when you purchase one of the GEZA units, the cabinet already fits the bowl size, making the decision easier. Three style types are available on the market:

  • Under-mount
  • Freestanding
  • Wall mount

 

With the under-mount style, the bowl section is fitted on top of the cupboard. This is the best choice if you want to save space and maximise efficiency. With the toiletries and towels underneath, the space is kept clean and it’s easy to get to the important items. View an example of a compact under-mount type here.

The freestanding type is best suited for a larger space, while the wall-hung type is the go-to option if you don’t have any floor space to work with but need extra packing space. This type can include a mirror, side shelves for toiletries and an under-mount cupboard for towels. Here is an example of a wall-mount basin cabinet combination. This one has extra packing space with its convenient drawers together with the cupboards, and upper open shelves.

 

Shelving helps to improve aesthetics and neatness

If you want to avoid a situation where the bath edge becomes a packing area, invest in one of the basin units with wall-mount shelves in addition to a cupboard. The more shelving you have, the easier it is to keep the floor and bathtub area clean.

 

Choose a colour that works with everything

The ideal design reflects your sense of style. The best colour is one that can work with any tile or wall colour. White fits the picture as it is neutral, have a hygienic look and never goes out of style. It is elegant in any setting. White doesn’t lose its brilliance whereas other colour finishes often fade or discolour.

 

Comfort is important because you spend a lot of time in the bathroom

Do a little test to determine how many hours a week you spend in the bathroom. You will be surprised. Considering that it’s one of the most used areas in the home, you want it to be as comfortable as possible. To achieve this, choose compact units that offer maximum functionality. The more compact the units are, the less floor space will be taken up. This adds to your comfort. But this doesn’t mean you have to compromise on functionality. With complete bathroom cabinets that provide for neat pack space, easy-to-use taps and spacious bowls, you add to the comfort profile of the space.

 

Choose a unit with affordability in mind

Regardless of your income, you don’t want to spend more than what’s necessary to enjoy style, comfort, and functionality. Buy from a supplier such as GEZA, known for the manufacturing and supply of exceptionally affordable basin units. Download our bathroom products pricelist here.

With our company’s history dating back to pre-2000, you can rest assured that we have the knowledge and expertise to manufacture and sell quality units. We provide simple yet effective bathroom- and kitchen-fitting solutions to homeowners and tenants alike.

basin bathroomWe offer products suitable for effortless installation and space-saving. The best part: we craft units with high-quality materials. And you don’t have to be a Silicon Valley billionaire to afford these products.

Are you wondering if you’ll be able to maintain these lovely products for years to come? The answer is yes. We offer replacement parts for all of the GEZA products available at the spare-parts store in Johannesburg.

There is no better supplier for all your home’s restroom and kitchen needs in South Africa. However, if you’d like to first do a bit of research, here’s advice on finding a supplier for your bathroom fittings and more:

 

  • Get quotes or check catalogues to compare pricing from different suppliers.
  • Read reviews on social media and other platforms to know whether the company is the right fit for you.
  • Short-list potential sellers and speak to their support staff.
  • Visit showrooms for first-hand viewing to determine product quality.

 

Now that you know how you can find your desired supplier, you have a decision to make on the size and type of basin for your bathroom. We offer you a selection of three product types. With all units being the standard white colour, they are perfectly suited to any house, no matter the style or theme.

The first choice you have is our standard basin set, which is rectangular and has a round-shaped front. It’s a mere 55 cm by 43,5 cm in length and width, making it suitable for small cubicles or main en-suites where you need two basins. It has a built-in cupboard at the bottom, featuring a pair of shelves to place toiletries, cleaning products or other items. It is 89 cm high, leaving ample space above the unit to install a small cupboard or mirror.

For a sleeker and straightforward design featuring a mirror, our small wall-mounted basin set is ideal. With the 5 cm added length and 3,5 cm added width, it is only slightly bigger than the previously mentioned option. Thus, it can still be purchased for a cosy apartment or master bathroom fitted with a double basin.

Lastly, our larger wall-mounted set is best when you need multiple storage options and a more sizeable piece. This one’s width is the same as the small wall-mounted piece, boasting a length of 80 cm. The deluxe set boasts a large mirror with two shelves and drawers in the cupboard. It has a modern and neat finish, making it well-suited even for a higher-end home or lodge.

Whether you are on a tight budget or want something stylish to fit your guesthouse property, our products meet space, affordability and elegance requirements. Don’t pay more than you have to – see our price list.

Shower Installation Prices South Africa

Factors Affecting Shower Installation Prices in South Africa

Shower installation prices in South Africa, along with the costs of materials, add to the renovation costs of bathrooms. Buying each piece separately increases the initial layout and installation costs. Rather opt for complete units, which are also easier to install.

To help you choose the best units for your home, lodge, resort or townhouse complex development, here’s an introduction to some products in our range that can help you to benefit from lower shower installation prices in South Africa.

Square ABS Shower Cubicle

Square ABS Shower CubicleDon’t be fooled by the low prices for these units. Although exceptionally affordable, these units are sturdy, luxurious and practical. The cubicles come with ABS/fibreglass shower trays that feature sides to prevent water spillage onto the surrounds. Each unit is fitted with a waste and trap. The ABS, polystyrene and aluminium sides and back are already fixed to the shower tray. This prevents leakages and helps to reduce installation costs. The hardened glass door is available as hinged or slide and is fitted within an aluminium frame. The shower harness is adjustable and comes with a mixer and rose.

With all the parts already included, you don’t have to be concerned about separate installation costs for the waste and trap, door and tray. It also reduces the risk of poor workmanship during installation. This is the perfect unit for installation in a small bathroom. View more details on this exceptionally economical unit, perfect for affordable housing projects in South Africa.

Rectangular Glass Shower Cubicle

You may be wondering, why not just state that we also offer a rectangular unit? Here’s why: this unit is well-suited for luxury lodges and larger bathrooms. With this unit choice you can save considerably on the shower installation prices in South Africa, simply because you don’t have to be concerned about brick-and-mortar building costs of such a large shower.

How should we describe it? The simplest way is to direct you to the product page for a picture, which you can see here. However, if we had to put it into words then we can only state that it is stylish and luxurious. If you want a spacious unit with all the bells and whistles you can expect from a luxury shower, then this is the one to choose.

It comes with a white ABS/fibreglass tray, reinforced with a strong steel frame and legs. The unit features a glass sliding door, together with a glass shower side and back panels. These are fitted into an aluminium frame that is fixed onto the cubicle tray. It features a rose and mixer. What gives it an extra element of luxury is the hand-held rose along with the glass shelf for placement of toiletries. We offer these units in black or chrome frame finishes.

Corner Glass Shower Cubicle

Want a cubicle that can fit perfectly between the bath and toilet? Then consider a corner unit to minimise space wastage. Installation prices of conventional showers in South Africa are affected by the size and location of the units. A corner unit holds the benefit of two side walls already in place. This means the installer doesn’t have to build side panels and only has to install glass sections for two panels. This can still be costly with conventional units. However, our corner units come with a back panel and elegant rounded front glass panels. No building and thus no additional installation costs! Now consider the competitive prices of the corner units, and you can see why so many South Africans opt for these corner units.

As with our other cubicles, these units come with aluminium frames, which make the doors lighter. The units are fitted with the following:

  • Mixer with a fixed shower rose; the convenient hand-held rose and a glass shelf.
  • Glass shower side with elegant back panels.
  • Panels are framed in aluminium and are fixed onto the cubicle tray.

Save space and benefit from lower shower installation prices in South Africa with the corner units. View more details here.

Square Glass Cubicle

The unit is similar to the ABS square cubicle, but instead of the ABS polystyrene and fibreglass sides and back panels, it features glass side and back panels that are framed in aluminium. The frame is fixed onto the tray. It comes with an internal glass slide door. The unit also has a mixer, hand-held and fixed rose set together with the convenient glass shelf. View more information here.

How our units help to cut on shower installation prices in South Africa

From the product descriptions, you can see that each unit comes complete with the shower rose, door frame, side and back panels, and tray. Now consider how long it takes to build each section if you had to first build a tray, install the waste and trap, and install frames. Not only does such a process take several labour hours, it also means you have to wait for the brick and mortar to settle. In addition, you have to add more waterproofing while having to be concerned about a perfect and leak-free fit.

Now consider how many times home renovations entail water damage repairs because of water seeping through the walls to the hall or cupboard areas. With back and side panels ready to be fixed to the frame and tray, you have a significantly lower risk of leaks and ultimately, the benefit of lower installation prices and a reduction in the risk of leakage.

The side and back panels are in aluminium frames. This is significant because aluminium is light, making it easier and safer to open and close the cubicle door. Aluminium doesn’t rust. Keeping it clean is as easy as wiping it off. The risk of mould build-up between the back or side panel tiles is eliminated because our units come with easy-to-wipe panels. You don’t have to deal with issues related to wall or floor tiles. The panels come in one-piece sections. This eliminates spaces where dirt and grime could collect. Lower cost on maintenance, increased hygiene and lower risk of mould build-up make these units the perfect option.

Polystyrene is also cheaper than brick and mortar. With such, you get a durable product that is easier to install. It is also durable, light and doesn’t pose a high risk of water leaking through the panel as is the case with brick-and-mortar panels.

Small Bathroom Renovations

How to Do Small Bathroom Renovations on a Budget

Regardless of the size of the room that needs remodelling or renovating, it is always a time-consuming process. However, knowing what the bigger picture will look like ahead of time can help you plan properly for small bathroom renovations. This will save you money and also allow you to get things done quicker. Planning means you have a lower risk of disliking what the finished project looks like and it gives you the chance to avoid troublesome layouts. You don’t want to end up with too little area to manoeuvre and get injured because of a cluttered and over-furnished space. Before you start brainstorming, you have to identify the type of bathroom you are renovating. See the list below to get an idea of where yours fits in:

  • Guest bathroom
  • Powder room
  • Communal bathroom
  • Master en-suite

 

Guests to Impress

Small Basin VanityWhere possible and when finances allow, it makes sense to hire professionals to handle the small bathroom renovations, especially for the guestroom, as it is what makes others perceive your home as upmarket or not. However, if your budget doesn’t allow for using professionals and upper-end priced products, you are not at a loss. We offer stylish units that make it possible to furnish even the smallest room with quality products, even if you don’t have years of experience in bathroom installation or interior design.

Although the guest bath isn’t one that will be in frequent use unless you have people staying over most of the time, it is one you want to put some effort into. It usually consists of a toilet, basin and either a shower or bath. You can choose to offer both a tub and shower cubicle if you have space or you could opt for a combination unit to cater for all without crowding the place. If you decide to go with the bathtub solution, our GEZA basin, toilet and bath sets are perfect for the job. These make your first decision easy because you already have all the essential pieces to the puzzle to satisfy your visitor needs. With a plain and neat look to go with any house, this set can work for anyone. You also have the option of swapping out the tub for the shower cubicle to fit into a smaller room.

 

A Smaller Bath Concept for Convenience

When talking about small bathroom renovations, the powder room is as close as it gets. This one is for when you get day visitors who often want to just use the toilet. It can be a hassle to have them walk through your entire house to do so. Therefore, many people choose to add a powder room in an easily accessible area, which mainly consists of a toilet, basin, and mirror. Since it is an extra and not the only bathroom in a house, the powder room is a project you don’t have to rush. Take your time picking the colour scheme, layout, and flooring for this one, as it can save costs when you have time to properly shop for prices. Our smallmounted basin unit is an excellent choice to cater to most. It is small in size and already comes fitted with a mirror, which is what most guests appreciate and use in the powder room setting.

 

The Main or Shared Bathroom

This type is one utilised daily and it features all necessary amenities for a household. Thus, it is imperative to invest in quality fixtures, including durable bathroom basins. Some houses may feature more than one for splitting between adults and kids, but these rooms need to be able to withstand a lot of traffic. When you plan the arrangement of fixtures, keep in mind that it is a room that is constantly in use and needs to be cleaned more often. Don’t add features that can hinder this process as an uncomplicated clean room is better than a stylish, but dirty one. For this room, you might be more interested in our large-mounted bathroom basins, since these units feature more packing space to hold all your toiletries and secondary towels.

 

The King and Queen’s Section

The master bathroom is typically connected to the main bedroom for the person in charge of the family. With it being where you would spend most of your getting ready and relaxing time, it is also not a surprise that it will be the priciest of renovations. This is where you get to spoil yourself a little by choosing one of our four lavish options for showers, as well as the addition of a luxurious tub if you wish to do so. Our corner glass shower cubicle unit is a profound choice for those with little room for manoeuvre after placing a bath, but who still want the luxury of a shower as well. It fits neatly in the corner with a rounded front that reduces the chances of bumping a toe because of limited walking space. It features sliding glass doors, a fixed, and hand-held shower rose for optimal comfort and a shelf for washing supplies.

If you want a bit more moveability inside, the rectangular unit might just do the trick. It measures 120 cm by 80 cm with a height of 195 cm, making it large enough to move freely in or out of the water stream. It is also fitted with a hand-held and fixed rose, a shelf, and a sliding door. Similar in style is our square version. It measures 90 cm by 90 cm and has the same height as the rectangular one. Thus, if you prefer straight lines and defined corners, we have the perfect options for big or small bathroom renovations.

The last cubicle to pick from is also square in shape with the same dimensions in width and length as our other square option. The height is only slightly more in this piece than the others. It has a stylish look with polystyrene, ABS and aluminium sides and a hardened glass and aluminium door. It sports a truly chic design and certainly helps to save space while offering maximum functionality.

 

The Process for Renovations

Unless you make a living off of renovating bathrooms, it is unlikely to have a budget ready and allocated time to achieve your goals. By having a general idea of what the process entails, you can make preparation for all that must be done, and through this keep to the amount you set out and not have to work overtime. Below is a guide to making sure that you stay on track and follow the correct procedure for renovating:

  • Start by drawing the floor plan, scheduling appointments with any outside professionals and identifying materials needed.
  • Next, you can start the demolition process by removing all old fixtures, wallpaper, tiles, and units you no longer want or will replace in the end.
  • When you have a clean slate, you can start on the rough structural framing, then plumbing, followed by electrical preparations.
  • Finally, you can install any walls if necessary, do the tiling and finish your floor section.
  • If all the walls and floor areas are complete, you can add the cabinets if they are not going to be free-standing.
  • The last stage is getting all the fixtures hooked up and ready for use (this is where you get to spend more time with the electrician and plumber).

 

If you have a small bathroom, it is best to stick with light colours in paint, wallpaper, or tiles to avoid a claustrophobic feel. Dark colours often create the effect of a tight space, which could make your small bathroom feel a bit too tiny. With our white selection of bathroom basin units and other products, you can still choose from a wide variety of colours to fit your style, while keeping it bright and fresh. After all, white is a colour that pairs well with anything and everything.

 

Add Some Pizazz to the Mixture

Of course, no renovation can officially be declared over before you have added some decoration and made it your own. Whether you decide on our normal basin unit or one of the small or large wall-mounted pieces, you know what to do. Fill up those cabinets with all your necessities, place a deliciously scented lotion on the sides and add floor mats. You can also now add any art pieces or additional mirrors if you feel your walls are too empty. Gather a few aromatic candles, bubble bath, and a glass of your favourite stress-relieving drink and enjoy the hard work you have put into renovations. Our tub comes with two pillar taps and handles on both sides to make it more user-friendly. Nothing is as satisfying as accomplishing the desired goal and then relaxing in a hot bath afterwards.

Need a Basin for a Small Bathroom?

Need a Basin for a Small Bathroom? Where to Get an Affordable Solution

Just because your bathroom is tiny, it doesn’t mean it can’t be gorgeous with a beautiful basin to go with it. Take, for instance, our small wall-mounted unit, which is a mere 60 cm by 47 cm in size. It has built-in cupboards with shelves and a mirror. This piece is excellent for any small unfinished bathroom. It can also be a winner for those redoing old restrooms to make them look fresh and new again. However, a basin isn’t all that you need to spruce up the space. Below are some tips on how to decorate a snug space:

  • Shower curtains take up less space than full glass doors.
  • Get a large mirror as it will create the illusion of a larger room.
  • You can use the door to install the towel hanger on.
  • A giant-scale pattern can also add to the feeling of a larger area.
  • Choosing a rounded basin can save you from hazardous corners.

 

No Need to Compromise on Elegance and Functionality

bathroom basinWe have a lovely small basin unit that measures 55 cm by 43,5cm by 89 cm and is the perfect option for a small bathroom. The stylish rectangular shape is rounded off with a beautiful round front. The basin is ceramic and boasts a melamine built-in cupboard for storing toiletries and essential supplies out of sight. The tap is a lever mixer, making it convenient as it takes up less space and is easier to use than normal twist taps. With not one, but two shelves in the cupboard, you can store more items, eliminating the need to put up an extra shelf in an already small space.

 

Large Wall-Mounted Unit

We also have a larger wall-mounted unit that takes up less floor space while giving you more functionality. Similar to our smaller piece, it comes with a mirror, cupboards, and shelves. However, this one also boasts two drawers and is obviously a bit on the more sizeable side of the spectrum. Again, like the smaller unit, this one also comes installed with a lever mixer to add style and comfort. If you have a bit more space for the necessities such as a shower, bath, basin, and toilet then this might be the one to meet your needs.

 

Where to Shop If You Need a Basin for a Small Bathroom

With a small bathroom, it’s all about the layout, how you present it and the look you’re going for. Don’t let the dimensions keep you from creating a masterpiece in your home. Get inspired by browsing our available compact basin units and let your imagination roam free. At our affordable prices, anyone can find what they need to get a desirable flawless finish.

Shower Cubicles for Small Spaces

Optimising Bathrooms with Shower Cubicles That Work

Planning on renovating a small bathroom area? Tired of looking at the same drab interior that you know could work so much better if you could just shuffle things around? Small bathroom ideas can completely transform the space into something modern and stylish, as long as you have smart units that fit your plans. Shower cubicles especially come in a variety of shapes, sizes, and finishes, bringing a sleek design to tired and small spaces.

square_showerThe trend towards smaller lock-up-and-go spaces has also inspired today’s shower cubicle options, as people have cottoned onto the fact that smaller bathroom spaces can be fine-tuned to a degree that larger spaces often can’t emulate. Also gone, for many, are the old notions of built-in showers with their accompanying dirt and dust all over the bathroom tiles. No matter how careful the planning, builders all too often end up chipping and plastering in the shower area long after other smart fittings (like those expensive tiles!) have already been installed, leading to subpar end results. Fitting the shower door normally demands it, but it’s a lousy start to a supposedly smart beginning.

The stylish options available in modern shower units are largely the reason why built-in shower areas have become passe. When prefabricated, modern colours and designs are so freely available, it feels like reinventing the wheel trying to get the same results with a built product. With shower cubicle options today, both contractors and DIY enthusiasts have greater control over installations and renovations, and shower units are bringing current colours and modern form into homes.

Shower Cubicles Are Best for Small Spaces

A primary consideration when redesigning a small bathroom – or laying one out for the first time, for that matter – is which fittings you’re going to employ. Is there a trade-off between bath and shower? Are you worried that the basin is too small or too close to the loo? “Bath or shower?”, is usually the big question when space is limited, and shower cubicles generally show greater overall space-saving and health benefits than baths:

  • Dermatologists generally agree: If you don’t have a skin condition that needs regular (soaking) treatment, showers are the way to go.
  • They’re also typically in agreement on the fact that, because showers subject one’s body to far less water than bathing, while nonetheless providing ample cleansing, they’re healthier for your skin overall. An excessively protracted or even hot bath can strip human skin of its natural oils, resulting in persistent and subtle inflammation, or even in localised irritation – rashes, in a nutshell.
  • Showers provide for far superior temperature control – no one is stuck on a single temperature for the duration of their ablutions – another aid in managing sensitive skin.
  • Showers are time-savers, too. Who hasn’t wished they could just walk through a shower, get dressed, and go, while they sit watching the bath fill up? Someone’s arrived early at the airport, or someone needs an urgent lift, and the water is crawling!
  • Showers typically use demonstrably less water than the average bathtub, making them both the economical and eco-friendly option.
  • Showers don’t ask you to clean the muck out afterwards – no bath rings, no unsightly residues.

There are so many great shower cubicles for small spaces on the market today, and they lack the jarring shapes of bathtub attempts to get around limited space. Showers are broadly tubular, and their sleek, vertical aesthetic seldom disappoints.

Don’t Compromise, it’s Your Choice

Indeed, the vertical aesthetic of shower cubicles goes immediately to the heart of optimising small spaces, as they use far less surface area than bathtubs. That’s really the primary role of the fittings employed in small bathroom spaces, as stylish optimisation speaks of contemporary design and smart living. Baths have the ability to immediately disappoint, based on poorly matched colours and shapes, but shower cubicles look sleek and mod.

From a design point of view, shower units also come in a wide variety of styles, many of which will work in your unique space. Fancy a rather bold-framed unit with straight lines for modern chic, or perhaps a more fluid enclosure with far more organic touches? Whatever you’re looking for, you’re sure to find both a taste and a style that matches your design ideas.

Modern shower enclosures are versatile, and whether you’re planning a small en suite or even a second bathroom, some of the best modern design is crafted into shower cubicles that complement today’s tastes and styles.

Shower Cubicles Make Budgets Work

One of the best things about modern shower cubicles is that the options within any given price range are always extensive. More importantly, perhaps, most are within a comparable price range to begin with. Because you’re dealing with a smaller space, shower units tend to be capped within a broadly manageable price range, so no more living with a mess while you save up for a tub you’re still not sure is going to fit!

Overall, keeping costs manageable and sticking to even a tight budget won’t ask for any painful compromise on the final results when installing shower cubicles. Again, the great thing about a small space is that it won’t cost you an arm and a leg to refurbish it. You can get a superb finish in both form and function for very reasonable prices, considering their overall aesthetic value and the utility they provide.

Designs to Suit Available Space

In terms of dimensions, one can find shower cubicles that are tall and narrow for optimising an en suite, or cheekily (but successfully) equipping a guest bathroom with a shower option. “Compact without compromise” should be your slogan when shopping shower cubicles, as beyond basic measurements, all units come with bespoke design and smart finishes across the board. When shopping, populate your budgetary allocation with potential options, shortlist the right size units, and then compare available options in that range.

For minimalist overtones, frameless designs are popular. In fact, near frameless cubicles with front-meeting doors in the new D-shaped design are de rigueur as fashionable bathroom kit. These uniquely shaped cubicles act both as aesthetic focal point and an extremely comfortable showering space. For classic space saving, few units can top those that sport either a sliding door or a bi-fold door.

Opting for a sliding door unit means that the door will move on its own rail, with no need for you to worry about swinging doors and what they’ll hit, while a bi-fold door works like a concertina, folding in half and also settling behind the door pane without hanging wide.

Unique Spaces Often Need a Unique Shape and Size

If you’re limited to being framed by two walls only, opting for a unit that sports two door panels will stand you in good stead. Water will stay in, while access will be a breeze. Corner entry units are also extremely versatile, and an aesthetically smart choice for really small bathroom spaces.

Modern shower cubicles epitomise the prioritisation of space and budget. Square-shaped units are often very compact, allowing for sufficient clearance and utility inside, too. In fact, when you’re working within tight parameters, even losing a single brick width to a built-in shower can collapse the whole design. It ultimately comes down to personal preference and taste, married with the available space, in order that any small bathroom both works effectively with a good flow, while also being aesthetically pleasing.

One of the key takeaways from this article should be the conviction that smaller bathroom spaces needn’t constrain your creativity or predilection for stylish, elegant, and completely contemporary design. In fact, the opposite may be closer to the truth: when faced with tight dimensions, the required solutions often incorporate the minimalist aesthetic by necessity. Form, it’s safe to say, really does follow function.

Shower Units

Great Bathroom Design Starts with a Smart Shower Unit

With the sleek design and smart fittings of modern shower units, both DIY enthusiasts and pro builders are finding it a lot easier (and far more pleasing) to equip bathrooms with stylish cubicles. Goodbye old-style brick and mortar showers – modern shower units offer so many advantages and improvements on style and finish, an array of choices await the discerning shopper.

Rectangular-Shower-CubicleIf you’re looking to build from scratch, or if you’re renovating an existing bathroom area, modern shower units have a host of benefits to offer exacting homeowners. As anyone who has ever suffered renovations knows, the speed with which today’s shower cubicles can be installed is a huge win. Also, a shower unit installation is complete when it’s done – no more perpetual chiselling away at wall surfaces to make shower doors fit, and no more endless dust and debris in your nice, new, sparkling bathroom.

 

The Benefits of Modern Shower Units

Not only does opting for a modern shower unit give you access to real design, fashionable colours, and sleek finishes, there are several other reasons prefabricated shower units beat legacy builds, hands down:

  • A quick identification of the most suitable unit is made possible by clear dimensions and a range of door options. Matching the correct shower unit to its ideal application is easy, eliminating any costly errors.

 

  • The shower installation is just as quick – DIYers can expect to install in a day, although for the slight cost of installation, most shoppers will want their unit professionally fitted.

 

  • Cost-effective purchasing takes on a new meaning when shopping shower units, as even the most ornate are typically affordable, and provide excellent value for money for their years of stylish service.

 

  • As anyone who has ever tried to clean grout and tiling knows, modern units are a breeze in comparison. Maintenance is not only simplified, but when cleaned, modern units positively sparkle.

 

  • Great durability – no rising damp or other intractable issues like those that so often present with built-in showers. Fewer seams mean less need to scour nooks and crannies for dirt, too.

 

  • Especially when renovating, the flexible base of the average shower unit can far more easily accommodate undulating terrain where plumbing comes through the floor or other issues prevent a perfectly smooth surface. Leaks in modern shower unit pans are almost never encountered.

Bathroom Basins

Are You in Need of a Basin for Your Bathroom?

What is the centrepiece of any bathroom? The tub or shower may come to mind first, but have you ever considered how awkward a bathroom is without the basin? This is especially true when the toilet is also in the room. So yes, choosing the right bath is pivotal to the overall functionality and appearance of the room. However, basins are equally important.

 

Where Else Can You Groom?

bathroom basinFor one, you wash your hands, brush your teeth, and clean your face at the basin. Come to think of the important functions, you have to agree that you also have to carefully consider which of the many basins are best suited for your bathroom. We offer everything from free standing to cabinet built-in types, and they have the following in common:

  • Durability – because any fixture to a home should last a lifetime or at least many years
  • Aesthetically Pleasing – since you will spend many hours grooming and will appreciate having features that are pleasant to the eye
  • Compact in Design – to allow for installation even in smaller bathrooms
  • Easy to Install Features – rather than having to spend thousands on the installation costs, you can buy basins that can be installed without extensive trade knowledge and tools
  • Affordable – you should not have to exchange a pot of gold for superior-quality basins

 

Given the features mentioned, what else should you consider when you shop for bathroom basins? Let us briefly consider size and storage.

 

What is The Size of The Room?

Of course, if you have a room the size of the presidential suite in a hotel, you will not need to consider space-saving options. However, if you are looking for a basin that can fit in a granny flat or studio apartment bathroom, then you will want a stylish unit that fits without taking up too much space. For this, consider the small wall-mounted unit that leaves room beneath the cabinet. We offer the compact unit with a top and bottom cupboard, shelving, and mirror. It comes with a mixer, waste, and trap. The dimensions are 600 mm x 470 mm, making it perfect for the smaller room.

 

How Much Storage Space Do You Need?

Eliminate the unsightly clutter of hair products, extra towels, cleaning agents, and more. Choose one of the basins with a ceramic bowl and an elegant level mixer on top of the refined cupboard beneath, set on pedestals to keep the cupboard slightly elevated from the floor. The attractive cupboard features two shelves for optimal storage space. Fitted with two doors to keep your toiletries out of sight, the unit measures 550 mm x 435 mm with a height of 890 mm.

Regardless of the space available, you will delight in our exquisite, yet affordable bathroom basins, made to be durable, deluxe, and priced to go.
