You may think that a faucet isn’t a big deal, but using this every day multiple times a day will change your mind.  These Tips for Choosing a Faucet for Your Bathroom are just what you need to make the best choices for your home.  Check out our tips before making the final plans for updating your bathroom.

Match to your aesthetic preferences. 

Compare the faucet options from TOTO to your overall design theme.  Various colors, styles, and aesthetics are available to fit your personal preferences.  This is one of those fun little things that you can control.  Polished nickel, brushed nickel, and polished chrome are all great options that can make the theme of your bathroom come together seamlessly.

Invest in something classic for long-term use. 

We mentioned above picking something you love aesthetically, but that doesn’t mean you should throw caution to the wind. A beautiful but classic design can stand the test of time.  Even when you prefer a different color on your bathroom walls in 5 years, the right faucet will last a lifetime.

Choose a water conserving option

We love a bright and shiny faucet, but if it costs more money to use, then it’s not worth the beauty.  That’s one of the things I love about the TOTO Upton, Guinevere and Wyeth High-Efficiency Faucets.  They make washing up super easy to manage, but don’t use too much water.  As drought is a real issue for many areas of the country, this is even more important to consider.

Durability for long-term usage

A faucet is used more than most of the items in your home that you update when remodeling or when building.  A quality faucet is a must. Especially if you will have children using it on a regular basis.  Your faucet will be turned off and on at least 4-5 times per day.  This is being used around 1500 times per year at the minimum.  You want that to stand the test of time.

No matter what you decide, you can count on the quality of TOTO Upton, Guinevere and Wyeth High-Efficiency Faucets in your bathroom.  Using these to pull together your bathroom design is easier than you think and will create a beautiful decor that you will love to years to come.  We have been extremely happy with our TOTO faucets and their high-quality craftsmanship will last for years to come.

  1. This is a very important topic. Faucets are as important as the sanitary connections of the washroom.You have rightly stated that durability, the water conserving capability and a classic design would complete a perfect faucet. Before reading this blog, I would have not considered these points but now, I know it’s importance.

  2. Durability is so important! No one wants to have to replace faucets every few years. I also like your tip about choosing a timeless design. That way your home won’t get stuck in a past decade with its style.

  3. I never thought much about my faucet and I know i use it multiple times a day I take it for granted it will always be there. The most important thing is durability but it should look good and sleek too. Your faucet is like many things in a house, you only notice them if something goes wrong.

  4. When it comes to redecorating bathrooms, etc, I do tend to buy fixtures that are timeless and not too trendy. Also, I love the tip about choosing a faucet that conserves water.

  5. Great tips! The proper sink and faucet combo can really make or break a bathroom. I don’t do well when it comes to home design decisions, so I appreciate the help.

  6. I agree that going for a classic look is a better investment – especially if you plan on keeping the faucet as-is for a long time. I haven’t changed the faucet in our home because we haven’t really had to yet, but these are things I’ll keep in mind for when the time comes.

  7. It’s funny how before you become a homeowner, it can be easy to miss the importance of things like this. It’s only later that we realize how the features of a faucet can be so important since they affect our daily life!

  8. My bathroom is fine, but lacks personality. A faucet is an easy swap to make it feel fresh and new. These are great reminders.

  9. We had new faucets installed in the guest bathroom a couple of years ago. It’s time to update the ones in the hall bath now. It makes a difference and it’s quite affordable.
