Complete Bathroom Renovation in Burnside

Yes, and doing both together is often more efficient and cost-effective than doing them separately. We can sequence the works to minimise disruption — typically completing the ensuite first (while the main bathroom is available for use) then doing the main bathroom. There may be cost savings on fixed costs (scaffolding, site establishment, skip bin) by combining the works. We also ensure both bathrooms have a cohesive design language even if they use different fixtures.

For Burnside homes where the investment justifies it, we love specifying: freestanding stone or resin baths as a focal point; large-format porcelain slabs (1200mm × 2400mm) that minimise grout lines; wall-hung vanities with integrated basins for a seamless look; and concealed in-wall cisterns that free up the visual space around the toilet. Brushed brass or brushed gunmetal tapware adds a sophisticated layer that reads as distinctly premium.

Most standard bathroom renovations take 2–3 weeks from demolition to final handover. Larger bathrooms or those requiring significant plumbing relocations may take 3–4 weeks. During your consultation we'll give you a realistic timeline specific to your project — and we honour it.

Not usually. If your home has a second bathroom you can use, most people stay put. We contain the work area, lay floor protection, and clean up at the end of each day. If the main bathroom is the only bathroom in the home, we'll discuss timing and phasing options with you during consultation.

Our fixed-price quote covers all labour, waterproofing, tiling, fixture installation (shower, bath, vanity, toilet, tapware), electrical (lighting and exhaust fan), and final clean. Fixtures and tiles are either supplied by us or by you — we'll clarify which items are in-scope at quoting stage. The only exclusions are hidden structural defects that couldn't be identified before demolition.

Yes, absolutely. Many clients enjoy sourcing their own tiles, tapware, and fixtures to get exactly the look they want. We'll give you the exact specifications you need (tile size, fixture rough-in dimensions) and install whatever you supply — as long as it meets Australian Standards. We'll also advise on quantities so you don't over- or under-order.

Our workmanship warranty covers defects in the installation work — including tiling, waterproofing, plumbing connections, and electrical work. It does not cover damage caused by misuse or normal wear and tear. Manufacturer warranties on fixtures and fittings are separate. We'll provide written warranty documentation at handover.

Tile selection depends on three factors: the aesthetic you're after, the size of the room, and whether the tile is for a floor or wall. In smaller bathrooms — common in Adelaide's inner-eastern and inner-southern suburbs — large-format tiles (600×600mm or larger) with minimal grout lines make the space feel bigger. For character homes, warm-toned stone-look tiles in travertine or warm grey complement the heritage feel better than stark whites. We can advise on tile selection during consultation, and we're familiar with what the major Adelaide tile suppliers carry so we can help you shortlist options that suit your budget and brief.

A renovation typically means a complete strip-out and rebuild — new waterproofing, new tiles, new fixtures. A refurbishment might mean resurfacing or repainting existing fixtures, re-grouting, and updating tapware without a full demolition. We do both, but we always recommend renovation over refurbishment when waterproofing is more than 15 years old or when tiles are showing movement. Short-term savings on a refurbishment can cost more in the long run if waterproofing failure follows.
