Frequently asked questions
How long does a bathroom renovation take?
A standard bathroom renovation is usually three to four weeks on site once we start. That covers strip-out, plumbing rough-in, tiling, fit-out, finishing and handover. The pre-site phase (design, ordering, waterproofer scheduling) takes another two to four weeks depending on tile and fitting lead times. We share a programme up front so you know what to expect.
Will I be without a bathroom the whole time?
Yes — a bathroom strip-out means that bathroom is unusable from day one until the new one is signed off. If you have another bathroom, the household just shares it. If it's your only bathroom, we plan in advance — in some cases we can stage the work to keep the toilet usable for longer; in others we recommend organising temporary alternatives. We'll discuss it openly when we scope.
Do you handle waterproofing?
Waterproofing is mandatory in Queensland bathrooms and we manage it through certified waterproofers as part of the scope. The waterproof membrane is inspected and certified before tiling — there's no shortcut on this and we wouldn't try to take one. The certification is part of the handover paperwork you receive.
Can you reconfigure the layout — move the shower or vanity?
Yes, and we often do. Moving wet points (toilet, shower, vanity) means re-routing plumbing and sometimes drainage falls, which adds cost — but it's usually the difference between a renovation that solves the underlying frustration with the bathroom and one that just refreshes the tiles. We'll lay out options at the design stage.
Will you supply tiles and fittings or do I source them?
Either works. We can manage the full supply through local suppliers we work with regularly, which gives you trade pricing and accountability for delivery dates. Or you can pick and order everything yourself — many clients enjoy that part of the process. Whichever way, send us the spec list early so we can confirm timing.
Do you handle the design or do I need a designer?
For a straightforward like-for-like upgrade we work directly from your selections and an internal plan we draw together — no designer needed. For a fundamental rework of the layout, or if you want help curating fittings and finishes, a bathroom designer is a worthwhile investment and we coordinate with one as part of the project.
