Most people choose their mixer taps as part of a design choice: They look at the aesthetics, the price and the manufacturer. But how do you know which mixer tap is right for your requirements? Here we look at the benefits of installing mixer taps in to your home and the purpose and functionality of the different varieties.

There’s nothing nicer than wrapping yourself up in a big, soft, fluffy towel after stepping from your bath or shower, but over time, towels can become rough and hardened. Here, we give you some top tips on how to look after your towels and keep them looking (and feeling) like they’ve come straight from a luxury spa! Choose the Right Temperature With all of the advice out there regarding carbon footprints and the environment, a lot of people are choosing to wash their clothes on a thirty degree wash or less, but when it comes to towels, this is a bad idea. Why? Because water that’s below forty degrees isn’t hot enough to completely kill bacteria, and as your towels spend a lot of time in hot and humid conditions, bacteria do love to thrive on them.

If you’re looking for the best bathroom fitter in the Dublin area, here are some things to take into account: How to Find the Right One Think about what services you require - write them down; once you start searching, check this list against the services the different bathroom installers offer. For instance, some bathroom installers will offer an installation only service (so no design, product placement or project management). Some bathroom installers will help you source bathroom furniture from other manufacturers or wholesalers, while others will only install products you’ve purchased from them; and some will offer a sanitaryware installation service but won’t carry out construction work on walls or floors. Be very clear about what you want in your communication and ensure that they are very clear in return. Cost Of course, cost is always a really important factor when choosing the right bathroom installers. Choose someone who’s...

Wetrooms are becoming increasingly popular and it’s easy to see why: They’re easy to clean, practical and stylish and these are just some of the benefits a wetroom has to offer. But a wetroom isn’t always the right choice for everybody. Here we discuss the details and the pros and cons of having a wetroom installed in your home. What is a Wetroom?

Wetrooms do away with the need for a shower tray and screen, making them particularly useful for people with mobility issues, as the seamless floor and walls make it easy for wheelchair access or for individuals to manoeuvre. What are the Benefits of a Wetroom? As just mentioned, wetrooms are fantastic...
