Back-to-Wall

Back-to-wall toilets offer a great space saving alternative for compact bathrooms and cloakrooms. They are a good, economic option as the cistern is concealed behind the toilet pan by hiding it within a wall or a unit. The versatility of these toilets allows for them to match a large range of traditionally designed bathrooms with modern functionality. 

Wall-Hung

Wall-hung toilets will hang – appearing suspended – concealed inside the wall. They differ from back-to-wall toilets as they do not sit on a visible pedestal. It’s a great, sleek option for those preferring a minimalistic look. You will just need to remember to select a concealed cistern and wall mounting solution for ease of installation. 

Close-Coupled

Close-coupled toilets are one of the most common choices for bathrooms in the UK. The installation is incredibly straight-forward as the cistern is directly above the toilet bowl which is where the name comes from – they are closely coupled together. 

Low-Level

A classic choice for re-creating a Victorian-style bathroom whilst remaining space-conscious. The low-level toilet is very customisable to match your brassware preferences such as handles and flush pipes. 

Medium-Level

Medium-level toilets have a cistern fitted on a wall and are connected through a flush pipe. You continue to have customisable options with your flush pipe and pull cords/flush chains. A medium-level toilet will help you to create a heritage look in your space. 

High-Level

High-level toilets are the perfect choice for creating an authentic traditional bathroom interior. High-level toilets are characterised by the long flush pipe which connects to the toilet. The cistern is operated by a long pull-chain which again, you can customise depending on your preferences.
