Shower Taps and Heads

At Restoration Online, we offer a large collection of vintage shower taps and heads from trusted brands such as Phoenix Tapware, CB Ideal, Bastow, Armando Vicario and Fienza

Our bathroom taps are all backed by a manufacturer warranty and meet Australian standards. As showers are something that you use at least daily, if not more often, we know your bathroom fittings need to be durable. You can rest assured that our wide collection of shower tapware will stand the test of time.

Although they are often one of the smallest rooms in the house, bathrooms can be a great way to express your individuality. Whether you are constructing a new bathroom from scratch or restoring or renovating an old one, choosing the right taps can have a big impact on the final look of your bathroom. From traditional or French provincial to art deco, transitional or modern, our shower taps come in a range of colours and finishes to suit any bathroom style. 

In fact, many styles are available in up to 19 different finishes. From matte black, brushed satin, nickel or chrome tapware to Florentine bronze, copper, brass gold and even 24 carat gold, you are sure to find a colour and finish that suits your decor.

Shower Tapware Styles

There are a few things to consider when choosing the finish on your shower tap. For example, the industrial brass finish can vary in different parts across the tap, the bright or dull copper will tarnish very quickly and not all the finishes are available in every style. We also offer shower taps that can be mounted to the wall, bench/hob or in some cases even the floor. 

When it comes to choosing your bathroom fittings, with so many options available it can be hard to know where to start. But the good news is the friendly team at Restoration Online have the knowledge and experience to help you. We love to keep our customers happy and are available online or over the phone to discuss your needs. Every bathroom is different, but with such a wide range of taps available, you should have no problem finding something that suits your needs and your budget.

When designing bathrooms, as a general rule you will want to have all your fixtures in a complementary style, finish and colour so buying all your tapware from Restoration Online will help you make this happen.

As well as looking good, you will also want your taps to be functional and meet any special requirements you may have. From shower sets, taps with hand sprays, mixer taps, exposed shower taps, diverters, taps with lever handles or the more traditional taps with cross handles we sell a wide variety of taps and can help you choose the one that’s right for you.

How Do Mixer Shower Taps Work?

Mixer taps are becoming increasingly popular in modern bathrooms for a more contemporary look. If you are renovating an old bathroom that already has non-mixer taps, you’ll need to move the old ones and adjust the plumbing which can add to the expense, but many people think it is well worth the cost to have the luxury of having a mixer tap. 

Unlike traditional taps where the hot and cold water flow is controlled by two separate taps, a mixer tap is a single tap that draws water from both the hot and cold water supply. The water then flows together out of a single spout. The water flow and temperature can be adjusted, generally by using a lever. 

Many shower mixer taps allow you to set your shower tap to a temperature that suits you, and it will then turn on at that temperature every time you use your tap. This is particularly useful if you have young children as you will already know what the temperature of the water is going to be before you turn the shower on. Being able to pre-set the temperature also has the added benefit of saving water as you don’t have to waste water while you are trying to set your desired water temperature.

At Restoration Online, we sell mixer taps as well as the more traditional style of taps. If your shower is combined with your bath, your shower tap may also require a shower diverter, which is a valve that either directs the water to the shower head or the bath spout depending on which one you are using. A shower diverter makes it easy to switch the flow of water from the shower to the bath with just the push or pull of a button.
