Hills District
Bathroom Renovations Glenhaven
Glenhaven bathrooms have something most Sydney bathrooms don't: floor area. The brief here is usually ambition rather than compromise.
On acreage and near-acreage blocks we're generally working with a large main bathroom or ensuite that can take a freestanding bath, a double vanity and a proper 1600mm+ shower without anything feeling squeezed. Bigger rooms bring their own detail: longer waste runs, more setting-out to get tile joints landing cleanly, and heated towel rails and floor heating worth wiring in while walls are open.

Sydney bathrooms, one crew
Bathroom renovations in Glenhaven, start to finish
Remodler is a Sydney bathroom renovation company, not a national franchise with a call centre. We run a small number of jobs at a time across Sydney — the Hills District, Western Sydney and the Upper North Shore — which is why a Glenhaven bathroom gets the same licensed crew, the same certified waterproofer and the same supervisor from demolition through to handover.
- Licensed NSW builder (Lic. 393475C), fully insured
- Waterproofing certified to AS 3740, with photo records at every coat
- Itemised written quote before demolition — every tile, mixer and fitting listed
- One crew, one supervisor, workmanship warranty

Glenhaven & surrounds
Glenhaven homes, and what that means for your bathroom
Most of our work sits in the Hills, so a Glenhaven job isn't a detour for us. Hills homes tend to be double-storey brick with a main bathroom and an ensuite upstairs over timber floors, which changes how we sheet, fall and waterproof the room. We also know how the estate streets and school-run traffic behave, so deliveries and skips are staged rather than dumped on day one.
Housing around Glenhaven
Prestige homes and semi-rural acreage properties with large ensuites and multiple family bathrooms.

What's in your written quote
We measure your Glenhaven bathroom, work through the layout with you, then put every item in writing — tiles, tapware, waterproofing, rubbish removal. No costs hidden behind a line called "allowances".
Renovating in Glenhaven
What we usually find in Glenhaven bathrooms
The age and build of the house sets the scope long before the tiles do. Here's what we plan for around Glenhaven.
01
Freestanding baths, twin showers and 3m double vanities are realistic here — we design to the room, not a template.
02
Many Glenhaven properties run on tank water or on-site wastewater, which changes fixture and drainage selection.
03
Long driveways mean staged deliveries and on-site material storage rather than daily runs.
Glenhaven specifics
How a Glenhaven bathroom renovation runs
The parts of the job that are specific to this area, worked out at the measure rather than mid-demolition.
Room for a real layout
Freestanding bath, double vanity, separate shower and a niche that lines up with the tile module — planned on paper before anything is ordered.
Large-format setting out
Big tiles in a big room only look right if the setting-out is planned. We mark it out on site with you before the tiler starts.
Extras that are cheap now, expensive later
Underfloor heating, a second waste, extra power for a heated rail — all trivial while walls are open and painful afterwards.

Questions
Common questions from Glenhaven homeowners
Short answers to what people ask before booking a measure.
That's most of what we do here. Freestanding baths, stone tops, large-format tile and semi-frameless glass, quoted item by item so you can see what each element costs.
No. We check the existing system at the measure and select fixtures and waste runs to suit it.
Larger Glenhaven bathrooms usually sit between $30,000 and $50,000 depending on size, stone and tapware. You'll get the breakdown in writing.
Yes — Glenhaven is part of our regular run, so our trades and suppliers are already local. No travel surcharge.
Usually within a week. The site measure takes about an hour and you get the quote a few days later.
Three to four weeks. If it's your only bathroom we'll stage the work or sort a temporary option so the household keeps running.
Every job. Done to AS 3740 by a licensed waterproofer, with photos and a compliance certificate handed to you.
Most full renovations land between $22,000 and $38,000. Layout changes and tile choice move the number more than anything else.

How it works
What happens once you say yes?
Three stages and three to four weeks on site. You'll know the price before we start, how long the bathroom is out of use, and who is turning up each morning.
Measure, design and written quote
We measure the room, check the drainage and what's behind the walls, then give you a scaled layout with every fixture listed and a written price that holds once it's signed.
Strip-out, rough-in and waterproofing
Back to frame, licensed plumbing and electrical rough-in, then waterproofing to AS 3740 photographed at every coat. Same crew, same start time, swept down before we leave each day.
Tiling, fit-off and handover
Tiling, glass measured off the finished walls, tapware and joinery installed. Then we walk the room with you, fix anything you pick up, and hand over the certificates and a workmanship warranty.

Answers
More questions from Glenhaven homeowners
We hold a NSW Builder Licence (#393475C) and every trade is licensed and insured. You meet the person running your build at the site measure, not after demolition starts. We also provide a detailed written contract with every item listed before work begins, and a workmanship warranty at handover.
Not if we've measured the site properly. Our quote is a detailed written contract that lists every fixture, tile and fitting by supplier code. If there is a risk we can't see — like asbestos or hidden water damage — we itemise a provisional sum upfront so you know the ceiling before you sign, not after the wall is open.
Most full bathroom renovations in Sydney land between $22,000 and $38,000 for a standard 6–8m² room, with premium and larger builds running $40,000 to $70,000+. The variables that move the number most are whether fixtures stay in place, the tile size and format, whether the room contains asbestos, and the standard of tapware and joinery. We give you a detailed written contract after the site measure so the scope and price are clear before you sign.
A standard full renovation takes three to four weeks on site: demolition and rough-in week one, waterproofing and screed week two, tiling week three, fit-off and finishing week four. We keep the rest of your home live wherever possible, and waterproofing membranes need proper cure time — we don't compress that, because it's the single most common cause of failures we're called in to repair.
Usually no. A like-for-like internal bathroom renovation in NSW is generally exempt development. You will need approval if you are altering the external envelope, changing the building's structure, or the property is heritage listed or in a conservation area. Strata apartments need owners corporation approval regardless. We tell you which category you're in at quote stage.
Waterproofing is carried out by a licensed waterproofer to AS 3740 and you receive a certificate of compliance plus photographic evidence of the membrane before tiling. It's covered by our workmanship warranty. We never allow a tiler to 'roll a bit of membrane on' as part of the tiling day.
No — the room is stripped to the frame. If your home has a second bathroom or powder room we keep it live throughout. Where the renovated room is the only bathroom, we can stage the works or arrange a temporary toilet so the household isn't displaced.
We test suspect materials before demolition rather than discovering them mid-job. If asbestos is present, a licensed removalist handles it and you receive a clearance certificate. Where the quote can't anticipate hidden damage, we itemise a provisional sum upfront so you know the ceiling on that risk before you sign.
