Bath Shapes
The shape of a freestanding bath changes both how it looks and how it feels to use. A slipper bath has a raised end for reclining, while a double-ended bath lets you sit at either end. Compare clean-lined modern freestanding baths with traditional freestanding baths and check how the sides will look from the doorway.
Space & Installation
Measure the bath’s full footprint as well as the internal bathing length and depth. Leave room to get in, clean around the sides and reach the taps. Compare the waste position with the available floor access, and check the delivery route through doorways, around corners and up any stairs before ordering.
Choosing Your Taps
Plan the tap position alongside the bath. Freestanding bath taps need a suitable floor connection, while a wall-mounted spout needs enough reach to clear the rim. Check whether the bath can take deck-mounted taps and what is supplied with it, including the waste, overflow and any feet or fittings required for that model.
