Modern Toilets

Many people remember having to go to the toilet in the outhouse, as this was common practice in the 1950s, '60s and even early '70s. Thankfully, the days of having a chamber pot under the bed or having to venture out on a cold morning to use the 'privy' are long gone. Toilets have moved on from a plank of wood over a hole to a white gloss ceramic throne. We're proud to introduce you to the wide range of modern toilets we have to offer. Why not revamp your bathroom space with a sleek, new loo?

What Is A Modern Toilet?

Modern toilets are designed to beautifully blend glossy glazed looks with practicality. Often made from white glazed ceramic or vitreous china, they can be recognised by their minimalist appearance. These eco-friendly and water-saving fixtures offer smooth, clean lines and provide a fresh, modern look. Unlike ornate looking traditional style toilets, they have smooth clean lines and provide a fresh, modern look. Innovative designs ensure that modern toilets are not only stylish but also highly functional. Toilets are one of the most important fixtures in a modern home, so opting for a contemporary toilet will not only add a touch of luxury to your bathroom but also provide modern features such as soft-close mechanisms and dual flush features.

Modern toilets are available in a variety of styles and sizes including wall hung, back to wall, close coupled, rimless and comfort height. Close coupled toilets have the cistern on view on the back of the pan whereas a wall hung toilet or back to wall toilet use a concealed cistern which is installed behind a wall or in a WC unit. We understand everyone's tastes, and room layouts are different, so it's important we provide a good selection to choose from. Concealed cisterns save space in the bathroom and give the room a simplistic, uncluttered atmosphere. Modern toilets are suitable for use in any bathroom, whether large or small, en suite, cloakroom or annexe. Their contemporary styles enable them to blend in perfectly with any decor, while their glossy white form gives off a flawlessly clean aesthetic.

Types of Modern Toilets

Modern toilets come in a variety of styles and sizes to suit different bathroom settings and preferences.

Wall Hung: Mounted onto a concealed frame in the wall, these toilet pans create a minimalist look and save valuable space in the bathroom. Ideal for en-suite bathrooms and small spaces, wall hung toilets offer a sleek and modern design that can make any bathroom feel more spacious.

Close Coupled: These toilets are fitted on the floor, with the cistern resting on the back of the toilet pan. Their classic design makes them a popular choice.  

Back to Wall: For use with a concealed cistern, back to wall toilets create space in the bathroom. This style is perfect for those who want a clean, uncluttered look.

Comfort Height: With a higher seat height than a standard toilet pan, comfort height toilets are designed to be more comfortable for those with longer legs or mobility issues.

Rimless: The rimless design of these toilets makes them easier to clean and more hygienic. Without the traditional rim, there are fewer places for dirt and bacteria to hide.

Modern and Contemporary Toilets

Our contemporary toilets, including compact toilets, are available in a range of sizes and styles, from the traditional oval shaped pan or stylish D Shape, to a more square shape toilet pan. These space-efficient designs are perfect for maximising your bathroom area. The shape of the pans and soft close seats are designed with your comfort in mind. Made from high quality materials for longevity and finished in a striking smooth gloss for easy cleaning you can rest assured that our toilet pans can stand the test of time and regular use.

The dual flush cisterns on our close coupled toilet collection feature a water-saving 3-litre half flush or a 6-litre full flush, benefiting the environment and whoever pays the bills.

The smooth glazed surface and shape of our modern toilets make cleaning a breeze. The back to the wall style pans ensure no pipework is on show so there's nowhere for dust and dirt to gather. The quick release hinges of the soft close seats take the effort out of removal - lift it off, give the pan a clean and click the seat back on- it really is as simple as that. Spend less time doing mundane jobs like cleaning your loo and more time relaxing and enjoying your bathroom space.

Our toilets can be installed in any bathroom, en-suite or cloakroom, providing you have the space and correct plumbing. Whether you go for a 2-in-1, with an integrated basin or a toilet with a separate matching basin, if you've got space for a toilet and hand washing facilities we'll have what you need to make your dream a reality.

Designer Toilets

While white toilets are timeless and will always be in high demand, luxury toilets, including black toilets, are becoming increasingly popular during renovations and new bathroom projects. Their contrasting colour makes a real statement in modern bathrooms, beautifully complimented by accessories in chrome, brass or bronze they create a talking point among any friends and family members who use your facilities.

Popular Brands we sell include Scudo, Nuie, Hudson Reed, Glissando and RAK ceramics. Starting at around £80 for a close coupled toilet and going up to around £560. Browse our collection of highly fashionable toilets for a designer toilet look that doesn't have a designer toilet price tag.

Benefits Of Modern Toilets

Modern toilets offer a range of benefits that make them a great choice for any bathroom:

Water saving: Most modern toilets have dual flush cisterns, which can save water. This not only helps the environment but also reduces water bills.

Easy Cleaning: With glazed, smooth surfaces, modern toilets are easier to clean and maintain. The lack of ornate nooks and crannies means less time spent scrubbing and more time enjoying your bathroom.

Space-Saving: Wall hung and back to wall toilets are perfect for saving space in the bathroom. Their compact design makes them ideal for small spaces.

Style: Modern toilets come in a range of styles, from sleek and minimalist to bold statement pieces. Whether you prefer a classic white finish or a striking black toilet, there's a modern loo to suit every taste.
