Frequently Asked Questions
What makes a tall basin tap different from a standard basin tap?
A tall basin mixer tap has a significantly higher spout than a standard monobloc mixer — typically 200–350mm from the base to the spout outlet. This extra height is necessary for countertop and vessel basins, which sit on top of a worktop or vanity unit rather than being inset or wall-hung. Using a standard-height tap with a vessel basin would result in the spout being too low to use comfortably.
How do I know if a tall tap will work with my water pressure?
Check the minimum pressure rating on the product listing. Most of our tall basin taps are compatible with low-pressure systems from 0.4–0.5 bar, making them suitable for gravity-fed systems as well as combi boilers and mains pressure. If you're unsure of your water pressure, contact a plumber or check your boiler documentation.
Do tall basin taps come with a waste?
Many of our tall basin taps include a click-clack basin waste as standard — check the individual product listing. If a waste is not included, browse our basin wastes to find a compatible option.
Can I order if the item shows as out of stock?
Yes — our tall basin taps can be ordered even when showing as out of stock, and we'll fulfil your order as soon as stock is available. If you need a specific delivery timeframe, please contact us at customerservice@bubblegumbathrooms.co.uk before ordering.
