Plumbing fixtures & sanitary ware
Washbasins, WCs, tapware and showers — the fittings that get used, and judged, every day.
What it does for the project
Sanitary ware is one of the few categories a buyer touches daily; in design it anchors the bathroom layout and sets the level of the room.
What buyers usually decide
- Layout and centres, against the plumbing drawing
- Wall-hung, back-to-wall or close-coupled
- Basin and tap pairing
- Finish: chrome, brushed, matt black and others
- Shower drainage, and tray or tiled build-up
- Rough-in dimensions that have to match the drawing
How we work on it
- One specification sent to each candidate, with the quotes put side by side so the differences are visible
- Samples or a reference piece sealed before the order, where the category allows it
- Pre-shipment inspection against the locked specification, with a written report and the original photographs
- Consolidated with your windows and doors wherever the schedule and the container allow
We do not issue technical backing for this category — we report what we see and what we would check, and the technical decision stays yours. We do not recommend factories, and we do not represent any of them.
Frequently asked
Can this be sourced on the same trip as my windows and doors?
Yes. It is looked at on the same trips, and where the schedule allows it ships in the same consolidation — with the load planned around weight and volume rather than assuming everything fits one container.
Do you sign off on the engineering of these categories?
No. For windows and doors we back the engineering. For the categories beyond them we report what we see and what we would check — the technical decision stays with you and your own adviser.
Can I use my own supplier for this?
Yes. We work inside the supplier you already use, and verify and inspect those the same way.
