Bathroom Basin Wastes
Basin wastes allow you to fill and drain your sink so choosing the right one is important. Depending on your sink, you will either need a slotted basin waste or an unslotted basin waste to avoid overflow and flooding. Our sink wastes come in different designs, colours and finishes, so you can choose one to best match your décor and taste. Pair with a sink trap to complete your sink drainage.
In the grand scheme of a new bathroom, bathroom basin wastes might seem like a small feature, but you should always consider your options. The most important decision is based on your sink choice. Do you have an overflow hole? Then you need a slotted basin waste. If you don’t have an overflow, you need an unslotted basin waste to drain the water.
Whether you want a traditional plug and chain or a modern push button or flip top, we have the basin waste style for you. And with basin wastes available in chrome, brass, matt black, and more, you can even make sure it matches your aesthetic.
