Bathroom taps are normally made out of three types of materials. The first type is stainless steel. This is very widely used and is mostly found in contemporary bathrooms. It is sturdy, rust-free and easy to clean. Another type of material is chrome. These are the shinier, sliver taps that are cheaper than stainless steel taps. The third type of material is brass. They are made of a single metal and they replicate gold. It is more pricey, but definitely more unique too. They can also rust, so they need extra care compared to the other two types.

There are three main categories of bath taps. The first one is the standard tap that comes in pairs. They come in both modern and traditional styles.

The other category is the bath filler and bath shower mixers.  They come in a standard two tap hole bath and are alternative to a pair of standard bath taps. They also come in many designs and they are popular for allowing you to choose between bath filling or showering in the bath. They allow the water to mix in the body of the tap. This allows better temperature control.

The third category is the three or four tap hole bath fitting. They come with two handles, one that gives the hot water and one that gives the cold water and the third for the water spout. The fourth tap hole is a shower head or a hose that is retractable.

It is also important to keep your bath taps clean by using warm, soapy water and thoroughly rinsed and polished afterwards.
