How do I choose the right basin size for my bathroom or cloakroom?

Look at the available widths first, the range here runs from compact 450mm cloakroom basins up to 1,000mm Strada II basins. For a tight cloakroom you'll usually want a 450–500mm basin so you have room for the toilet and door, while a family bathroom benefits from 800–1,000mm options that give more bowl area or the possibility of a double-basin run. A 560mm Waverley pedestal is a handy middle option for a standard bathroom where you want presence without overwhelming the space.

What's the difference between a pedestal basin and a wall-hung basin, and which suits my layout?

A pedestal basin like the Ideal Standard Waverley 560mm hides pipework below the bowl and gives a traditional, grounded look, which works well if you have floor space to spare. A wall-hung basin such as the Waverley 450mm cloakroom model frees up floor area and can make a small bathroom feel more open, or allow for under-basin storage. If you have a small cloakroom, the 450mm wall-hung is a practical choice; if you want a classic appearance and to conceal pipes, the 560mm pedestal is better.

Many basins are listed as "1 tap hole" — what tap type does that suit and can I still use a mixer?

A single tap hole is designed for a single-lever mixer or monobloc tap, which gives you combined hot and cold control from one fitting. If you prefer separate hot and cold taps you would need a basin with multiple tap holes, which are not shown among these 1‑hole products in our range. the 500mm Strada II 1‑tap‑hole basin works well with a compact single‑lever mixer to save space on a narrower bowl.

How do I match a basin to my bathroom style and other sanitaryware?

Think in terms of form and scale: the Waverley models (pedestal and wall‑hung) suit compact or traditionally proportioned schemes, while the Strada II range, with widths up to 1,000mm, suits larger, contemporary layouts where you may want a broader worktop or run of basins. Match the basin width to your vanity or furniture, an 800mm Strada II pairs neatly with a wide furniture unit, whereas a 450mm Waverley suits a slim vanity or open space.

Do I need a basin wall fixing set and is one available here?

If you choose a wall‑hung basin you will generally need a compatible fixing set, and this range includes the Ideal Standard Basin Wall Fixing Set (E015767) priced at the current product price. The fixing set is included in our range separately, so if you're selecting a wall‑hung Waverley 450mm, add the fixing kit to your order to ensure you have the correct hardware. Having the intended fixing available avoids last‑minute mismatches between basin and fittings.
