Modern Toilet Styles and Configurations
Choosing the correct configuration is a necessity for maximizing your available floor space and achieving your desired aesthetic. We stock a variety of mounting options to suit every plumbing requirement.
- Integrated and Space-Saving Designs: For a minimalist look, a wall hung toilet is an excellent choice. By elevating the bowl off the floor, it creates an airy feel and makes cleaning the floor hardware much easier. Similarly, a back to wall toilet conceals the cistern within a furniture unit or a wall partition, providing a sleek, integrated profile that hides all internal plumbing.
- Traditional and Versatile Options: The close coupled toilet remains a favorite in the UK for its all-in-one design and ease of installation. We offer modern rimless toilet versions of this classic hardware, which remove the internal rim where bacteria and limescale typically accumulate, ensuring a much higher standard of cleanliness.
- Specialized Solutions: If you are working in a tight space, our short projection toilets offer a compact footprint without compromising on seat comfort. For installations in basements or areas without direct gravity drainage, a macerator toilet provides the mechanical power needed to pump waste to the main soil pipe.
Advanced Flushing Technology and Efficiency
Modern toilets have evolved to prioritize water conservation and silent operation, making them a vital addition to an eco-friendly home.
- Dual Flush Systems: Most of our toilets are equipped with dual flush hardware. This allows you to choose between a full or partial flush, which is a mechanical necessity for reducing household water consumption and lowering utility bills. The sleek chrome flush buttons or plates provide a modern tactile finish to your cistern.
- Rimless and Tornado Flushing: For those who prioritize hygiene, a rimless toilet provides a powerful, 360-degree flush that covers the entire bowl. This ensures that waste is cleared efficiently with every use, reducing the need for harsh chemical cleaners and manual scrubbing of the ceramic hardware.
- Soft Close Comfort: Protect your ceramics and maintain a peaceful environment with a soft close toilet seat. This hardware features a tensioned hinge that prevents the seat from slamming, reducing wear and tear on the bowl and eliminating unnecessary noise.
Installation Hardware and Maintenance Essentials
A successful bathroom project requires the right internal components to ensure a leak-free and long-lasting installation.
- Cisterns and Frames: We provide concealed cisterns and wall mounting frames that offer the structural support needed for wall-mounted hardware. These frames are designed to be hidden behind tiles or panels, providing a clean and professional finish to your renovation.
- Connections and Seals: Ensure a watertight fit with our selection of pan connectors, wax rings, and floor fixing kits. Using high-quality plumbing hardware is a necessity to prevent moisture damage and ensure your toilet remains securely fastened to the floor or wall.
- Hygiene Accessories: Complete your set with our variety of toilet brushes, paper holders, and bidet sprayers. For a more comprehensive upgrade, consider a bidet toilet seat or an electronic smart toilet, which brings the latest in personal hygiene technology to your home.

FAQs
What is the benefit of a rimless toilet?
A rimless toilet is a mechanical necessity for modern hygiene because it removes the traditional inner rim where germs and scale build up. The flush is designed to wash the entire bowl more effectively, making the hardware much easier to keep clean and reducing the need for aggressive scrubbing.
Can I replace a standard toilet with a wall hung model?
Yes, but you will need to install a concealed mounting frame and cistern behind the wall. This hardware provides the structural integrity needed to support the weight of the toilet and the user. It is a popular choice for modern renovations because it frees up floor space and creates a minimalist aesthetic.
What does "short projection" mean in toilet design?
A short projection toilet is a piece of hardware designed with a shallower depth from the wall to the front of the bowl. This is a necessity for small cloakrooms or narrow bathrooms, as it provides more legroom and makes the space feel less cramped without sacrificing the standard seat height.
How do I choose the correct pan connector?
Choosing the right connector depends on where your soil pipe is located—either through the floor or through the wall. We offer straight, offset, and flexible pan connectors to ensure a watertight mechanical connection between your toilet hardware and the existing drainage system.
How do I maintain my soft close toilet seat?
To keep your soft close hinges working perfectly, avoid manually forcing the seat down, as this can damage the internal tension hardware. Simply clean the seat and hinges with mild soapy water and avoid abrasive chemicals that can degrade the finish or the mechanical components over time.
