Product Information

Full details

This 56cm Ideal Standard Waverley basin is designed for those seeking a classic, traditional aesthetic in their bathroom. Its primary benefit is offering a secure, floor-mounted installation with a full pedestal that elegantly conceals unsightly pipework, contributing to a clean, period-appropriate look. A potential caveat is its fixed size and floor-mounted design, which may not suit very compact or modern bathrooms.

FAQs

What size taps are compatible with this basin?

This basin is designed for standard pillar taps or wall-mounted taps. Please ensure your chosen tap has the correct reach and spout height for the basin's dimensions.

Does the basin come with a tap or waste fitting?

No, the basin is supplied without taps or waste fittings. These need to be purchased separately to suit your installation preferences.

How do I clean the gloss white finish?

Use a soft, damp cloth with a mild, non-abrasive soap or cleaner. Rinse thoroughly and dry with a clean, soft cloth to maintain the shine.

Is the basin suitable for a small bathroom?

While functional, its floor-mounted pedestal design and 56cm width might be better suited for medium to larger bathrooms. For very compact spaces, consider wall-hung options.

What material is the basin made from?

The basin is typically made from high-quality ceramic with a gloss white glaze, ensuring durability and ease of cleaning.

How is the basin installed?

The basin is floor-mounted. The full pedestal is secured to the floor, and the basin then sits on top of the pedestal.

Troubleshooting

Basin is wobbly after installation

Ensure the pedestal is securely fixed to the floor and the basin is properly seated on the pedestal. Check that all securing bolts are tightened.

Water is not draining effectively

Check the basin waste for blockages. Ensure the trap is correctly installed and clear of debris. Verify that the waste pipe is not obstructed.

Tap is leaking at the base

Tighten the tap connections securely. Check the condition of the rubber seals or washers and replace if necessary.

Gloss finish appears dull

Clean the basin with a recommended mild cleaning solution and a soft cloth. Avoid abrasive cleaners that can scratch the surface.
