Bathroom types
Contemporary bathroom detailing that stays crisp

What decides the layout
- 1
Large-format tiles need a substrate within tight flatness tolerances, otherwise lippage between tiles ruins the intended seamless effect.
- 2
Concealed cisterns and wall-hung pans need a rated frame fixed to structure, not just to boarding.
- 3
Shadow-gap details and minimal silicone lines require the setting out to be right at first fix, not corrected at the end.

Questions we get asked
Are wall-hung toilets reliable?
Yes, with a proper support frame and accessible service panel for the cistern valve.
Do big tiles work in small rooms?
They can, because there are fewer joints, but cutting around services needs planning so you avoid narrow slivers at the visible edges.
