Mirto Decorative Basin - concrete garden water point
Mirto Decorative Basin: concrete tub for the garden water point
A garden tap left running in the middle of the lawn ends up creating a permanent mud patch. The Mirto Basin collects the water in a high-strength concrete tub with a Ø 40 mm drain, solving the drainage problem and turning the watering point into another decorative feature of the garden.
✅ Key advantages
Collection and drainage: the 40 mm drain prevents puddles and mud around the tap.
Three sizes: from the compact 51 × 51 cm tub up to the 92 × 62 cm one for washing tools or pots.
High-strength concrete: withstands knocks from hoes, buckets and pots without chipping.
Three factory colors: Caliza, Champagne and Pirineos, which coordinate with the Mirto fountain.
Generous usable interior: 12 cm deep with a Ø 41.5 cm basin.
🏗️ Recommended applications
Watering and washing point in the garden.
Outdoor sink next to the shed or vegetable garden.

🧰 Installation
Decide on the position, taking into account the water supply and the drain outlet.
Prepare a firm, level base; a 102 kg basin needs continuous support.
Handle the piece with two people or a trolley.
Connect the 40 mm drain to the sewer, a soakaway or a filter well.
Give a slight slope towards the drain so the tub empties completely.
Seal around the pipe with outdoor-grade flexible sealant.
📦 Available formats

💡 Professional tip: don't connect the drain straight into bare soil without a filter well. With regular watering use, within a few months the water saturates the discharge point, the basin starts draining slowly, and you end up with the same puddle you were trying to avoid — only now underneath a 100 kg piece. A 40 × 40 cm gravel-filled well solves this.
