Taps are often one of the most expensive elements of a bathroom refit. Here at Better Bathrooms, our aim is to bring you a wide selection of good looking and durable bathroom taps at an attractive price.

When you're shopping for taps, style and practicality should be your watchwords. Ideally, you're looking for a tap (or taps) that complement your room scheme and are easily usable by each member of your household. You'll probably want your taps to match, too: buying bath filler taps and basin taps from within the same range means that your bathroom will automatically look a little more pulled together.

Your taps should be chosen in conjunction with your basin and bath: sometimes baths and basins have pre-drilled tap holes, and sometimes they do not. Opting for a bath or basin that's not pre-drilled means that you can drill the holes yourself at the time of installation. This allows you a free choice between a pair of taps (ideal for traditional bathrooms) or a monobloc mixer tap - and you can choose precisely whereabouts on the bath or basin the taps are finally situated too.

Alternatively you can choose freestanding or wall mounted taps. These are ideal when combined with a freestanding or roll top bath, or a vessel basin and can help to turn a simple basin or bath into a design feature for your bathroom.
