A toilet and sink vanity unit is a great way to add style and function to your bathroom while saving on space and budget. Whether you are renovating your entire bathroom or adding a few upgrades, a combined toilet and sink unit is a great choice. This type of unit can elevate your bathroom and give it a luxurious look and feel - it's a win-win situation!
A toilet and sink unit is a bathroom fixture that combines a toilet, sink and storage cabinet in one neat and compact module. It’s designed to maximise space and is a popular choice for smaller bathrooms, cloakrooms or ensuite spaces.
We’ve put together this handy guide so you can understand all the benefits of a toilet and sink unit and what to consider before purchasing.
So, what are the main benefits of this type of unit?
1. Save on space
If your bathroom is small or you’re trying to make room for other features, such as a shower enclosure or freestanding bath, choosing a combined toilet and sink unit can really help. The integrated design makes great use of floor space as you’re not installing individual elements.
2. Added storage
A toilet and sink vanity unit typically has built-in storage underneath the sink. There are options with both cabinet and drawer designs, making it easy to find the right choice for your preferences. This is great for decluttering your space and storing everything from toiletries and cleaning supplies to makeup and other accessories.
3. Stylish and co-ordinated
This type of bathroom fixture is a beautiful addition, available in a range of styles, colours and finishes. You can choose from sleek, modern designs or one that is more traditional or classic with period features. You can also add to your chosen aesthetic by selecting co-ordinating handles, more antique or contemporary finishes and a matching tap in your style.
4. Practical solution
Your bathroom will look amazing with one of these units, but the benefits don’t stop there. You are also installing a practical and functional solution that helps to make life easier. Since the toilet and sink are housed in a single integrated unit, it's more hygienic and easier to clean. There are no separate fixtures, meaning less gaps and crevices to keep dirt and dust-free!
5. Easy installation
A toilet and sink unit can be easier to install than individual items. Generally, there should be fewer installation steps, meaning you can get your bathroom sorted much more efficiently!
Things to consider before buying a toilet and sink vanity unit
1. Size and fit
Make sure to measure your bathroom space carefully. The unit should be compact enough to fit with enough space to move comfortably in and around it. Be mindful of other features in your bathroom, such as a shower bath or additional storage, and be sure there is enough space between each element.
You also need to check that the unit is compatible with your existing plumbing and that this is accessible from the location you intend to fit it. This avoids any unnecessary building or plumbing costs during installation.
2. Style choices
When choosing your toilet and sink vanity unit, be sure to consider your existing style or the aesthetic you are aiming for if you are undergoing a full renovation. There are plenty of styles and designs to choose from, with many options to help you find the perfect addition to your bathroom.
3. Budget
This type of unit can cost anywhere from £300 for budget options to upwards of £650 for more high-end, luxurious models. The price will usually depend on the brand, materials, size, functionality and finish you go for.
