Semi-Pedestal Basin
If you want to maximise floor space and achieve a modern look, a semi-pedestal basin is an excellent choice. These wall-hung units conceal the trap and pipework without requiring a full pedestal that reaches the floor. At Build & Plumb, we offer trade-quality semi-pedestal basins made from durable, high-gloss ceramic. These basins are perfect for smaller bathrooms or en-suites, where keeping the floor clear significantly enhances the overall appearance.
Why Choose a Semi-Pedestal Basin for Your Installation?
A semi-pedestal basin, often called a half-pedestal, is a preferred choice for a contemporary finish among professionals. Since the ceramic shroud is mounted on the wall rather than resting on the floor, it simplifies cleaning for the client and provides more space to work with in tight areas.
- Space Saving: By freeing up floor space, a semi-pedestal basin makes small bathrooms or cloakrooms feel significantly larger.
- Modern Style: It offers a streamlined, "floating" appearance that is highly sought after in modern new builds and high-end renovations.
- Concealed Plumbing: The half-pedestal shroud neatly hides the bottle trap and supply pipes, ensuring a polished look.
Pro Installation Tips (Getting the first fix right)
We understand that installing a semi-pedestal basin can be more complex than fitting a standard pedestal. Here are some helpful tips:
- Check the Wall: Since the basin and pedestal are entirely wall-mounted, it’s vital to ensure a solid fix. If you’re not familiar with masonry, make sure you have adequate timber noggins behind the plasterboard before tiling.
- Plumbing Height: Verify that your waste and supply pipes are at the correct height to be fully concealed by the shroud.
- Tough Ceramic: Our basins, sourced from reputable brands like Kartell and Dove Bathrooms, are built to be scratch-resistant and easy to level during installation.
