Bath tap query

mta999

I am looking to replace some bath taps but they are horizontal rather than vertical (see the photos). I am not sure what to Google in order to find taps like these

Does anybody have any recommendations - they would have to be brass coloured and ideally it would be nice to have a shower attachment as well if such a thing exists

Any help would be appreciated

Try "bib taps" and "globe taps" as a search term. If you want to keep the ones you have add "refurbish" and you'll find companies that can refinish them for you.

Maybe a wall.mounted type like these would do if there's enough clearance.

There's also floor mounted mixer tap/showers available for freestanding baths.

It's worth saying that the pipes are, most likely, 22mm and bath taps are different from basin taps in terms of the diameter, treads and the (higher) flow. Most wall-mounted taps are for basins.
There are many wall-mounted monoblock mixer bath taps, but they can be used only if the distance between the holes matches the existing ones. Also, if it's a gravity-fed low-pressure system, the tap specification has to say that it's designed for such.

As above - measure the spacing accurately, and compare.

You can get ones with 'cranked' fittings to accommodate variations, but they are likely to hold the new shower-mixer out further from the bath end - would that be a problem?

Thanks everybody for the input

Yes they are 22 millimeter bath taps not basin taps. I will try a search for bib taps

This looks to be 'cranked', so should suit any fitting width.

Thank you that looks like what I need - but in brass colour

First, check the fitting width. If it's 'standard', then you'll have lots of options. If it's non-standard, then chances are you'll need a cranked or 'clawfoot' fitting which is adjustable.
Or, you get your existing one refurbished, or but a refurb'ed equivalent.
I'm presuming you want antique brass as opposed to bright?

Thank you that is just the kind of thing I was searching for.
