CALA Homes
Making a development stand out is a priority for housebuilders, who want to attract buyers in an increasingly competitive marketplace. The kitchen is always going to be a key room for buyers, with the average Brit spending 253 minutes per week in the kitchen cooking meals.

The brief
Housebuilder CALA Homes turned to Zip Water for a recent development in South Lanarkshire, knowing that having a HydroTap would be a key selling point. Eileen Kesson, interior designer at Envision for CALA Homes comments: “This particular development, Riverside at Bothwell, is a very important and high-spec development for CALA Homes (West), featuring some of its most luxurious housetypes to date.
The development comprises 12 five-bedroomed detached homes including the Waterston - the largest in the portfolio. “Because of its exclusive nature, it was imperative that all the homes on this development included the most up-to-date product on the market. After Zip was recommended to us by our kitchen supplier Creative Designs, we had no hesitation in including it as standard.”
The solution
The product chosen was the Zip HydroTap Celsius Cube in matt black, providing filtered boiling water alongside unfiltered hot and cold. This WRAS-approved 3-in-1 tap ensures the homeowner can not only keep their stunning kitchen worktops free from drink-making clutter, but can enjoy the time-saving benefits of having filtered boiling water in an instant.“Having an instant boiling water tap certainly helps to set this development apart”, continues Eileen.
“The Cube design in matt black perfectly complements the kitchens’ state-of-the art interiors, looking modern and sophisticated. We were keen to have a product that not only offered the most advanced functionality, but that complemented the homes’ bespoke architectural approach."
"Our clients are thrilled with the high specification throughout their homes, including the HydroTap. Almost all of the homes at Riverside are now reserved - a sure sign that buyers have been impressed by the quality and specification on offer."
