How to choose a freestanding bath

Lie back and relax - we've taken the hard work out of finding your dream tub

Plumbing and installation advice

* Unlike built-in or shower baths, freestanding ones - particularly those in a more modern shape - often don't come with a space around the rim for the taps, so you'll need to go for wall or floor-mounted taps.

* Baths usually come without plugs, so you can choose what suits you from a number of options, from a imple plug and chain to pop-up wastes controlled on a stick by the taps.

* Visit your local plumbing merchant or any DIY store for a wide choice of taps, plugs and waste pipes.
