Builders Range

The builders range at The Blue Space brings together bathroom tapware, fixtures and accessories selected specifically for new builds, renovations at volume and multi-unit developments. Products in this range meet Australian standards, suit a wide spread of project budgets and are sourced from established manufacturers with reliable supply chains. Whether you are outfitting a single investment property or specifying across a development of 20 apartments, this collection gives you a consistent starting point.

What counts as a builders range product

Builders range products are fixtures designed for reliable everyday performance rather than luxury specification. They carry WaterMark certification, meet AS/NZS plumbing requirements and are priced to allow margin when bought in volume. Taps, showers, toilet suites, basins and accessories in this range are selected because they install without complication and hold up across a typical 10-year tenancy cycle.

Tapware options in the builders range

The tapware selection covers basin mixers, bath mixers, shower mixers and kitchen sink mixers finished in chrome as standard. Chrome remains the specification finish for most builders because it meets AS 4020 drinking water contact requirements, resists surface wear in rental conditions and coordinates across product categories. Brands like Nero offer builders-grade chrome mixers in a compact footprint suited to 600 mm and 750 mm vanity configurations.

Toilet suites and sanitaryware

Close-coupled toilet suites in the builders range carry a 4-star WELS water efficiency rating, which satisfies NCC Volume Two requirements for residential builds. Dual-flush cisterns at 4.5/3 L per flush are standard. Caroma manufactures several compliant suites in this bracket, including back-to-wall options where floor space is limited. White vitreous china is the default finish, matching across brands.

Vanities and basins for project builds

Wall-hung and freestanding bathroom vanities in the builders range are available from 600 mm to 1200 mm wide, with white or concrete-look finishes that photograph well for rental listings. Above-counter basins in white ceramic pair with any mixer in the range. For investment property builds, a 750 mm single-bowl vanity with an integrated basin is the most common specification because it fits a standard 900 mm x 900 mm ensuite layout.

Showers and shower fixtures

Builders range shower fixtures include fixed overhead roses at 200 mm diameter, rail shower kits and concealed shower mixers. Chrome-finished rail showers with a 1,100 mm adjustable rail suit most shower recesses from 900 mm x 900 mm upward. For tiled shower recesses, chrome tap trims are available as separate trim kits where the rough-in valve is pre-installed by the plumber at lock-up stage.

How to specify builders range products efficiently

Start by locking in your tap finish and spout reach before selecting basins and vanities, since spout clearance over the bowl determines which basin profiles work. For multi-unit projects, ordering from a single product family reduces variation on site and simplifies warranty management. All products in this range ship Australia-wide, and items in stock at the time of order are typically dispatched within two business days. Volume pricing is available on request for orders of five or more of the same SKU.

Tiles and flooring to pair with builders fixtures

Porcelain floor tiles at 600 mm x 600 mm in a light grey or white matt finish are the most common pairing with builders range fixtures because they meet R10 slip resistance for wet areas and are available in commercial quantities. The tiles collection at The Blue Space includes rectified porcelain options that work alongside the fixture finishes in this range without requiring a designer specification.
