If you're updating your bathroom fixture -- durable plastic water tap with chrome plate, read on to find out everything you need to know about resilience, design, and cost.

　　1. Resilience

　　Resilience is an essential characteristic of bathroom hardware, as functionality is at the forefront of all bathroom designs. Your hardware should be touched repeatedly and wet without significant degradation. For this reason, organic materials like wood are rarely used for bathroom hardware.

　　Metals like brass, nickel, and bronze are common because they resist moisture and friction well. Iron is less commonly used because it oxidizes and rusts over time, leading many homeowners to replace it with stainless steel or cover it with a waterproof coating. Alternatively, glass is an option, although some people report that glass becomes too slippery when wet.

　　You can finish most metal and plastic fixtures with almost any finish. That means when shopping for bathroom fixtures, be sure to ask about the military ingredients in your faucet. Another trick is to lift the clamps and feel the weight. Since quality bathroom faucets have a certain amount of weight, you need to feel the weight of each faucet in your hands.

　　2. Design

　　Choosing the design that works for you is entirely a personal decision. In general, it pays to keep your bathroom design scheme relatively consistent. A modern high-tech shower might be out of place with the lush, turn-of-the-century decor. However, fixtures and hardware are a great place to plug in some quirky or personal character, as they're often small, unobtrusive touches.

　　"You can mix metals, but it's easier to mix metals in the kitchen than in the bathroom." If you like your current fixtures and just want to update them to match the bathroom remodel, you can also paint or spray existing hardware at will. Just be sure to choose a quick-drying waterproof paint formulated for metal or glass coating.

　　Since the bathroom faucet is the crown jewel of any bathroom, you need to think carefully about the design of this bathroom fixture. Available in different shades, shapes and finishes, the possibilities for bathroom faucets are endless. When choosing a faucet, consider the design of the entire bathroom. Also, consider the size of the bathroom, and what faucets are typically found in homes of similar style and size.

　　You also need to consider the finishes of your bathroom fixtures, such as bathroom faucets and bathtub faucets. Some faucet finishes include chrome, brushed chrome, polished brass, tin alloy, stainless steel, gold plated or powder coated enamel.

　　3. Cost

　　We know that if you could, you would design the bathroom of your dreams and do whatever it takes. This will extend all the way to the most luxurious and beautiful fixtures money can buy. Unfortunately, this is not always possible. When choosing bathroom hardware, the cost tends to drive certain decisions more than design and flexibility.

　　That's not to say you can't find a good-looking and inexpensive bathroom fixture material. Recycled or antique brass is often affordable and easy to find, while stylish stainless steel can offer great performance at an attractive price.

　　Different metal finishes each have their own unique advantages in terms of flexibility, cost and design of bathroom fixtures. Brass, steel, zinc and plastic are all choices of body material for bathroom faucets.
