Our process
Your bathroom, finished in three to four weeks
No guessing at what stage the job is up to, and no waiting weeks for a trade to show up. Here's what happens each week, who is on site, and the few decisions we need from you.
3–4 weeks on site
Most bathrooms finished in three to four weeks, not months
Certified waterproofing
AS 3740 compliant, so leaks don't come back
Fixed quote
Itemised price before work starts, no surprise extras
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.
Week by week
What does each week look like?
Larger rooms, layout changes and asbestos removal all add time. If any of that applies to your place, you'll hear it before you sign rather than halfway through the job.
Week 0
Measure, design and quote
We visit the home, measure the room, check drainage, substrate and access, then produce a scaled layout and a full fixture schedule. You receive a detailed written contract with every item listed by supplier code.
Week 1
Strip-out and rough-in
Protection goes down, the room is stripped to frame, and any asbestos is removed by a licensed contractor with a clearance certificate. Plumbing and electrical rough-in follows, along with any framing changes.
Week 2
Waterproofing and screed
A licensed waterproofer applies the membrane to AS 3740 with photographic evidence at each coat. Cure times are respected in full, then falls are screeded to the waste.
Week 3
Tiling and glass measure
Floor and wall tiling, niches and benches, then grout and silicone. Frameless glass and mirrors are measured off the finished surfaces, never the plans.
Week 4
Fit-off, clean and handover
Tapware, toilet, joinery, lighting and accessories installed. Final clean, defect walk-through, then a handover pack with certificates, warranties and care instructions.

Questions about the build
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.
