Hot & Cold Kitchen Taps

Hot & Cold Mixer Kitchen Taps

Our hot and cold kitchen taps range is the largest selection we carry, with a large range of kitchen mixer taps from leading brands. Whether you are fitting a sleek modern kitchen, a farmhouse-style space with a butler sink, or anything in between, you will find a kitchen sink mixer tap here to suit the look, the budget, and the plumbing. Every tap delivers both hot and cold water through a single spout, with handle styles ranging from single lever and dual lever to crosshead and triple control.

Brands you can trust

We stock hot and cold taps from Grohe, Rangemaster, Nobili, Abode, Bidbury and Co., Alveus, INTU, Pronteau, Smeg, and Triflow Concepts. Each brand brings its own strengths: Grohe for precision German engineering, Rangemaster for robust British build quality, Nobili for Italian design flair, and Bidbury and Co. for heritage-inspired finishes that are genuinely hard to find elsewhere.

A finish for every kitchen

Finish is one of the most important decisions when choosing a kitchen tap, and this collection covers the full spectrum. Chrome remains the most popular choice, appearing on 118 taps in this range, and it suits everything from contemporary to classic kitchens. Black kitchen taps have grown strongly in demand and we carry 54 options, from matte black monoblocs to pull-out spray taps with a striking anthracite finish. Brushed nickel and brushed steel offer a cooler, understated tone that works beautifully alongside composite granite or stainless steel sinks. For warmth and character, antique brass, unlacquered brass, and gold finishes are available, along with pewter, copper, and bronze for kitchens that lean into a more traditional or industrial aesthetic. Grey and white options are stocked for bolder interior schemes.

Styles to suit every space

The range divides broadly into modern taps and traditional taps. Modern taps feature clean, architectural lines with C-spout, J-spout, L-spout, and U-spout profiles, many with a 360-degree swivel for maximum flexibility over a double bowl sink. Pull-out spray taps account for 47 products in this collection and are a practical upgrade if you do a lot of rinsing or have a large sink: the extendable head brings water precisely where you need it. Traditional taps tend to use crosshead or dual lever handles and softer silhouettes that complement shaker cabinetry, farmhouse sinks, and period kitchens. Our Bidbury and Co. range is particularly strong here, with porcelain-handled options in patinated brass, pewter, and antique finishes.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is a hot and cold kitchen tap?

A hot and cold kitchen tap, also called a mixer tap or monobloc tap, blends hot and cold water through a single spout and a single or dual control. This is the most common type of kitchen tap in the UK and replaces the older two-tap setup with a single, tidier unit. You control temperature and flow rate either by moving one lever or by adjusting two separate handles.

What is the difference between a single lever and a dual lever kitchen tap?

A single lever tap uses one handle to control both temperature and flow rate simultaneously, making it quick and easy to adjust with one hand. A dual lever tap has two separate controls, one for hot and one for cold, giving you more precise temperature management. Single lever taps are generally quicker to use day to day, while dual lever taps are popular in traditional kitchen designs and offer a classic look.

What is a monobloc kitchen tap?

A monobloc tap is a tap that fits through a single hole in the sink or worktop. The hot and cold supplies both connect to the single body of the tap beneath the surface. Most kitchen mixer taps sold today are monobloc, making them straightforward to install and to keep clean around the base. They contrast with bridge taps, which have two visible supply columns and require two holes.

How do I know if a kitchen tap will work with my water pressure?

Every product listing on our site includes a minimum bar pressure requirement. Most taps in this collection operate from 0.5 bar, which suits the majority of UK homes with a combi boiler. If you have a gravity-fed system with a cold water tank in the loft, your pressure may be lower, so look for taps rated from 0.2 or 0.3 bar, or consider fitting a pump. If you are unsure, our team can advise you on 0330 133 2247.

What finishes are available for kitchen mixer taps?

Our hot and cold kitchen taps are available in chrome, brushed nickel, brushed steel, black, matte black, antique brass, brushed brass, gold, pewter, copper, bronze, grey, and white. Chrome is the most hardwearing day to day. Brushed and satin finishes are better at disguising water spots and fingerprints. Brass and antique finishes add warmth and character to traditional or farmhouse-style kitchens.

What is a pull-out spray tap and is it worth it?

A pull-out spray tap has a head that detaches from the spout on a flexible hose, allowing you to rinse pans, fill pots off to the side of the sink, or direct water precisely to where you need it. They are particularly useful if you have a wide or deep sink, or if you regularly fill large pasta pots. We stock 47 pull-out spray taps across this collection in a range of finishes. The trade-off is that there is slightly more maintenance involved as the hose needs replacing over time.
