Bathroom dilemma

Buster's on his way home with two lovely new basins to match a third we've already purchased.

Problem is I've just realised that there's only a single hole on the centre of the basin for taps& outlet making it only suitable for mixer taps. We already have our taps and I really want to keep the combo. Has anyone got any fabulous ideas to work around my problem?





Can anyone post me pics of taps on the wall and outlet in the basin?

Behind schedule

Before we've even started...


Charlie our wonderful builder must shake his head at us. He's wanting to start our bathrooms Monday week and I haven't ordered a single thing yet. So we're not ready for him.


We already have
1 set bath, shower & basin fittings
2 coat hooks for rear of doors
1 overhead rack for spare towels
2 chandeliers for one bathroom
1 basin
1 old blue bath


Here's my to do list - apologies for the monotony of this post but it's necessary I keep this somewhere.


Clear out third bedroom
Rip up old flooring
Plumbing layout
Arrange for bath to be resurfaced
Pull down existing door, repair & paint


To buy immediately:
2 double glazed windows
tiles
2 double glazed window units
compressed fibre cement for flooring (CSR)
underfloor heating
floor tiles
2 in tile grates
framing materials to build new internal wall
materials to build bath frame
waterproof internal wall covering (csr)
Wall tiles

undercabinet lighting fluoro
2 small ceiling extractor fans with shutoff
2x heated towel rails large
2x loos
2x basins
3x mirrored bathroom cabinets

2 x extra basin taps
an overhead rain shower fitting

Can likely wait until later:

Light fittings for ceilings
4x Mirrored cabinets
2x shower screens

2x loo paper holders
1 interior door
4x hooks (may already have these somewhere)
