Guess What Really Defines Your Bathroom? Our Experts Say It’s Not the Tiles or Vanity…

28th July 2025

At Kallums Bathrooms, after designing and supplying hundreds of bathrooms, we have discovered one detail that always makes the biggest difference. It’s not the tiles. It’s not the colour scheme. It’s not even the vanity unit.

The secret? Your brassware.

Your taps and fixtures are what truly set the tone of the entire space. They’re the first thing you touch in the morning and the last thing you use at night – and they are the pieces that make a bathroom feel truly special.

At Kallums Bathrooms, we have designed and supplied hundreds of bathrooms, and if there is one tip we always share with our clients, it’s this: your brassware is what truly defines your bathroom.

Tiles, vanity units and colour schemes can all change over time, but your taps and fixtures set the tone for the entire space.

Start With the Brassware

Many people leave taps as an afterthought, but we encourage our clients to do the opposite. The finish and style of your brassware should be the starting point of your design. Whether you fall in love with a brushed brass mixer, a sleek matt black shower set or the understated beauty of brushed nickel, the right choice will guide the rest of the room.

Quality You Can Feel Every Day

We only supply highest quality brassware because we know the difference quality makes. From the smooth movement of a mixer to the solid weight of a handle, you can feel craftsmanship in every use. It’s these everyday interactions that turn your bathroom into a luxury experience.

Our Best Design Advice? Invest in Your Brassware

From our experience, bathrooms designed around their brassware always feel more cohesive, stylish and personal. If you want your bathroom to stand out, start with the taps and fittings. At Kallums Bathrooms, we believe they are the jewellery of the space – the small detail that changes everything.
