There are companies that can claim to have been in the business of making taps and accessories for the bathroom for longer than Crosswater, but few can lay claim to making products that all carry a ten year guarantee. There are 531 products within the Crosswater range and obviously the best way to see these is to look through them at the pages of the Crosswater section at our web site. To give you some idea of one of the taps within their range the Crosswater Water Square Basin Mixer is one example of demonstrating that a basin mixer tap does not just have to be functional, it can be eye catching also and this one certainly is, delivering a river of water mixed to the right temperature to your basin.

They say that good design never dates and this can be directed toward bathroom products, as we see an ever increasing demand for retro styling in the Edwardian or Victorian products that can be found at our web pages. Imperial manufacture a wide range of retro styled products, with the added advantage that today, modern glazing on the products means that it will not suffer from fine cracks in the surface of the finish. Also taps are 21st century with all the advantages that comes with up to the minute technology, but with the look of yesteryear.

In common with all Imperial products the Westminster Diana Basin and Stand is a beautifully crafted aluminium support stand which is completed with the Westminster Slab Basin. Traditionally this would have been manufactured with two tap holes, but today you can choose to have this with a single tap hole, two tap holes or three holes. To maintain the traditional look of the basin and stand we recommend that you choose a chrome finish bottle trap. A selection of these and taps can be found at our web pages.
