What is a Tap Collection trade account?

A trade account is a free account for people who buy taps, sinks and commercial water systems as part of their work rather than for their own home - installers and plumbers, kitchen studios and designers, main contractors and developers, and the facilities teams who look after offices, sites and venues.

It gives you trade pricing that improves as you buy more, a named contact who knows your projects, and technical help before you commit to a specification. There is no fee, no minimum spend and no obligation to order.

What you get

  • Trade pricing that grows with you

    Discount from your first order, reviewed as your spend builds. No credit check and no joining fee.

  • A named account manager

    One person who knows your jobs, your preferred brands and your deadlines - not a call queue.

  • Specification support

    Send us the drawing, the flow rate or the photo of what's already there. We'll tell you what fits before you order.

  • Priority despatch

    Free mainland UK delivery, live stock visibility and delivery direct to site or to your customer.

  • Quotes you can pass on

    Written, itemised quotes held for 30 days, so you can put them straight in front of your own client.

  • Full manufacturer warranties

    Every product supplied with its full warranty, plus the paperwork your customer will ask for.

  • Spec sheets and downloads

    Dimensions, flow rates, install guides and warranty documents, ready to drop into your own tender or client pack.

  • Trade promotions and first look

    Account-only offers, and early sight of new ranges before they reach the website.

Who it's for

  • Plumbers and installers

    Trade pricing on the brands you already fit, with parts and spares backup when you need them.

  • Kitchen studios and designers

    Specification help, finish matching and quotes you can present to your own clients.

  • Developers and contractors

    Multi-unit pricing, scheduled deliveries to site and consistent specification across a whole scheme.

  • Offices, hospitality and facilities

    Commercial boiling and filtered water, dispensers and coffee - supplied, installed and serviced.

Beyond the kitchen tap

  • Commercial boiling water taps

    Instant boiling and chilled systems for offices, staff kitchens and hospitality, sized to the number of people using them.

  • Commercial filter taps

    Filtered still and sparkling at the sink, with filter changes and servicing handled on a schedule.

  • Countertop water dispensers

    Freestanding and countertop units for break-out areas, receptions and sites, plumbed or bottled.

  • Spring bottle bar systems

    In-house bottling for restaurants, hotels and bars - your own branded still and sparkling, no crates to store.

  • Coffee machines

    Bean-to-cup and espresso equipment for workplaces and venues, matched to daily cup volumes.

  • Installation and servicing

    Commissioning, planned filter changes, descaling and reactive repairs across everything we supply.

Social value your procurement team can use

Contractors, developers and facilities teams are increasingly asked to evidence social value in their supply chain. We're an independent, UK-registered SME rather than a multinational distributor, so specifying through us supports a small British business - and we can provide the company details, warranty documentation and product certification your procurement or tender team will ask for.

How it works

  • 1. Apply

    A short form with your business details. It takes a couple of minutes.

  • 2. We set you up

    We check the details and confirm your pricing, usually the same working day.

  • 3. Order your way

    Order online at your rate, or send your account manager a list and let them price it up.

Trade account questions

Who can open a trade account?

Any UK business or sole trader buying for work rather than for their own home - installers, kitchen studios, contractors, developers, and facilities or office managers. We'll ask for your company or sole trader details when you apply.

Does it cost anything?

No. There's no joining fee, no annual charge and no minimum spend to keep the account open.

How quickly will my application be approved?

Usually the same working day, and never more than one. We'll email your confirmed pricing as soon as it's set up.

Is this a credit account?

Trade accounts are discounted cash accounts, so there's no credit check to open one. If you need credit terms for a larger project, talk to your account manager.

How much discount will I get?

It depends on what you buy and how much - some ranges carry more margin than others. You'll get a rate from your first order, and we review it as your spend builds.

Can you deliver straight to site or to my customer?

Yes. You can save multiple delivery addresses and have goods sent direct, with delivery timed around your fit date.

Do you supply commercial water systems as well as domestic taps?

Yes. Commercial boiling and filter taps, countertop dispensers, bottling systems and coffee equipment, including installation and ongoing servicing.

Can you help me specify the right system?

That's what the account manager is for. Tell us the number of users, the space and the water supply, and we'll recommend what fits and what it will cost to run.

What about warranties and after-sales?

Everything comes with its full manufacturer warranty. For commercial equipment we can also put planned servicing and filter changes in place so nothing gets forgotten.

Open your trade account

Free to open, no minimum spend, and you'll have your pricing confirmed usually the same working day.

Want to talk it through first?

Call 0330 133 2247, Monday to Friday, 9am to 5pm, or email info@thetapcollection.co.uk. Tell us what you fit or specify and we'll tell you honestly whether an account is worth it for you.
