Selecting your fixtures


Bathroom fixtures can underscore the style of your home or serve as a neutral backdrop that can be changed based on the accompanying accessories. Before purchasing the fittings check with the dealer or installer whether the type of fittings you intend to purchase is suitable with your plumbing system and can they be install.



-Check with the dealer whether a given fixture or collection is modern or traditional. Modern fixtures are often very angular or ultra-streamlined and fit well with modern, high-tech and minimalist environments. Traditional fixtures often have more embellishment that reflect classic styling. They go better with country, antique, colonial and similar environments.

- Take stock of toilets. Wall-mounted and low-profile commodes fit well in modern interiors. Taller and antique-style models, with oak seats and tanks that mount high on the wall, give a traditional look.

-Check out the shower doors. They can be plain glass; frosted or beaded; or stained glass made in Arts and Crafts, Victorian, or another style.

- Go with plain styles and neutral colors if you like to switch your decor frequently or have eclectic tastes. A good combination: a basic porcelain-over-cast-iron bathtub, a porcelain toilet and a porcelain or cast-marble sink.

- Choose faucets and a showerhead that complement the fixtures. Porcelain-brass combos are typically traditional, while gooseneck and waterfall faucets look modern. Basic faucets - even chrome-brass combinations - work nicely in neutral bathroom schemes.

-A matching line of accessories such as towel bars,tooth brush holders, toilet paper holder, and hooks create a fully integrated look for the bathroom

- Remember that bathroom colors can date quickly. Many people go with white, whether their style is traditional or modern. It's a safe choice for every decor.
