Bidet Toilet Services
Think of a bidet as a hands free, hygienic way to clean yourself after using the toilet. It removes the need for toilet paper while providing extra comfort and thorough cleanliness.
Bidets can either be an addition to an existing bathroom, sitting alongside your toilet, or installed to be part of an existing suite.
They are incredibly beneficial, helping anyone with sensitive skin or even physical impairments which impact a bathroom routine. And unlike the way bidets can sometimes be portrayed in movies or on TV, the warm water is soothing and can be programmed to your specific desires.
Some of the other bidet and bidet seat advantages include:
- Improved hygiene with thorough cleaning and less cross contamination
- Eco-friendliness as less toilet paper is used
- Regular savings without the need to purchase as much toilet paper
- Conversation piece, because who isn’t interested in hearing about bidet experiences!
The bidet is incredibly popular throughout Europe and countries such as Japan or South Korea. While it has taken some time for the popularity to spread down under, Jim’s Plumbing can help you with all of your Australian bidet desires! Our plumbers have experience installing standalone bidet toilets, or just the bidet seat attachments.
And if something does go wrong we provide bidet repairs and could even be there inside an hour* to provide speedy solutions. We provide bidets repairs for leaking pipes, faulty handheld sprayer faucets or nozzles, and more.

How Does a Bidet Work?
Bidets are incredibly simple to use, and their dazzling array of additional features won’t leave your head in a spin. They can be installed simply as a toilet seat, or a full suite connected to your home’s water supply.
What you go for depends on the features you’re after and available space.
But how does it work? Well, the bidet sprays water to clean after you have gone to the toilet. It saves the need for toilet paper and rough abrasive material on sensitive skin. The water can be programmed so it’s a certain temperature, water pressure or angled just right.
Depending on the bidet you have installed, it may also have a heated seat, play music or have coloured lights! Most models also have self-cleaning and blow-drying features.
Without using as much toilet paper, you are also lowering the risk of blocked pipes, which is an added bonus.
Types of Bidets
With the increased popularity in Australia, there is a greater range of bidets to choose from. Jim’s can offer expert advice on what would best suit your bathroom, while we have a handy outline with the quick facts.
Freestanding Bidet
This type is most common throughout Europe, and is the more traditional bidet. It is separate to your existing toilet seat, and typically is located right next to it. Like a low sink (but with a comfortable seat) it allows for a thorough and hygienic clean.
Built In Bidet
Like a 2-in-1 deal, this is both a toilet and bidet. There is plenty of comfort and ease of use, which is perfect for keeping things simple.
Bidet Toilet Seat
If you want a quick addition to the bathroom, a bidet toilet suite might be just right. The remote controlled seat is just added to your existing toilet and comes with a wide range of features for convenience.
Handheld Bidet
More like a handheld nozzle, this is not a traditional toilet seat but rather an addition to your toilet. You hold the bidet sprayer and are always in control. This one can also be linked to your hot water supply, so there’s a range of temperature for comfort.
Bidet Installation
When it comes to bidet installation there are some incredibly simple toilet seat attachments which can be installed yourself. But when you want to install a standalone bidet or require any intricate plumbing, contact Jim’s Plumbing.
Our local bathroom plumbing experts are available all day, every day, with no after hours fees. This helps us work to a schedule which suits you.
Because of the intricacies and health implications, many states also warn against DIY plumbing. You need to ensure the suite is plumbed correctly, including accurate measurements and watertight pipework. There may also be some electrical work depending on how fancy the bidet is.
Depending on your state there are also strict regulations surrounding the professional and licensed installation of bidets and handheld hoses. A plumber must install fittings with a high hazard backflow prevention device to stop contaminated sewage from mixing with your drinking water. You must also avoid connecting a bidet to recycled water supplies.
To ensure everything is 100 per cent compliant, contact Jim’s Plumbing. Our plumbers are licensed and regulated and will provide professional bidet installation.
