Your Reno, How You Want It

Our plumbing professionals will listen intently to make sure we know exactly what you want from your renovation – whether it’s a simple update or a whole new layout!

Our attention to detail will ensure you will get the renovation design you want for your bathroom, kitchen, laundry or ensuite. 

We encourage clients to choose tiles, sinks, tapware and fixtures to suit their design or we can offer assistance to match what they may want.

Safe, Reliable Plumbing Renovations

Our knowledge of the plumbing world will ensure that we look at any necessary underlining issues that could affect your new renovation.

Issues such as:

  • Protecting clients houses from high water pressures which can damage new fixtures and tapware by installing pressure reduction valves
  • Checking water temperatures so new bathrooms and en-suites receive a safe temperature of no more than 50 degrees
  • Making sure the existing sewer has an appropriate provision for sewer overflow in the unfortunate case of a blocked sewer

Your health and safety are our priority!

How Renovation Plumbing Works, Stage by Stage

Most of the renovation plumbing in a bathroom or kitchen is done before you ever see a tile go down. Here's the order it happens in, so you know what's going on behind the walls.

  • 1Strip outOld fixtures, tapware and pipework come out, and we get a proper look at what's behind them. Corroded galvanised pipe, previous leaks and dodgy earlier work all tend to turn up at this point, which is why we'd rather find it now than after tiling.
  • 2Rough-inNew water lines, waste and drainage are run and set to the exact positions of your new fixtures. This is the stage that locks in your layout.
  • 3Waterproofing and tilingHandled around our work, with floor wastes and penetrations set at the right height and fall so water actually goes where it's meant to.
  • 4Fit-offTapware, mixers, toilet, vanity, sink and appliances are installed and connected, water temperatures are checked and set safely, and pressure is tested through the whole room.
  • 5Sign-offWe check the finished installation, test everything under normal use and provide the certification for the plumbing work.
If your renovation also needs electrical, roofing or carpentry, our team can help – so the sequencing gets managed by one business rather than by you.

Kitchen and Bathroom Renovations FAQ's

The cost of renovating a bathroom in Australia can vary widely depending on the extent of the renovation and the materials used. On average, a basic bathroom renovation can cost around $10,000 to $15,000, while a high-end renovation with premium finishes can cost upwards of $30,000 or more. Other factors that can impact the cost include the size of the bathroom, the complexity of the project, and whether any plumbing or electrical work is required. It’s important to get quotes from multiple contractors and factor in all the costs before starting a bathroom renovation project.

Renovating a bathroom, typically involves several key steps. Firstly, you will need to plan the design and layout of the new bathroom, taking into account factors such as functionality, style, and budget. Next, you will need to source materials and fixtures such as tiles, cabinets, and fittings. The renovation process typically involves removing the old bathroom fixtures, making any necessary repairs or upgrades to the plumbing and electrical systems, and installing the new fixtures and finishes. It’s important to work with a professional to ensure that the renovation is done safely and up to code.

The duration of a bathroom renovation can vary depending on the scope of the project and the complexity of the work involved. On average, a basic bathroom renovation can take anywhere from 2-3weeks, while more extensive renovations can take up to 5-6 weeks or more. Factors that can impact the timeline include the size of the bathroom, the extent of the renovation, and whether any unexpected issues or delays arise during the construction process. It’s important to work with a professional to establish a clear timeline for your bathroom renovation project.

The cost of renovating a kitchen in Australia can vary widely depending on the size of the kitchen, the scope of the renovation, and the materials and finishes chosen. On average, a basic kitchen renovation can cost around $10,000 to $20,000, while a high-end renovation with custom features and high-end materials can cost upwards of $50,000 or more. Other factors that can impact the cost include the need for plumbing and electrical upgrades, any structural changes, and the cost of labour. It’s important to consider all the costs before starting a kitchen renovation project.

Renovating a kitchen involves several steps, including planning, design, demolition, installation, and finishing. Start by creating a budget and a layout plan. Choose the style, materials, and finishes you want to use. Hire a professional to remove old fixtures and install new ones. Don’t forget to upgrade electrical and plumbing systems if necessary. Finish the renovation by painting or tiling the walls, installing new flooring, and adding final touches such as lighting and accessories. A successful kitchen renovation requires careful planning and attention to detail.

Yes. In Victoria, plumbing and drainage work must be carried out by a licensed plumber, and most work needs a compliance certificate on completion. That covers relocating or extending water supply and waste pipes, connecting the toilet, vanity, bath and shower, installing tempering or pressure reduction valves, and hot water connections.

It’s worth keeping in mind for insurance too – unlicensed plumbing bathroom renovation work in a wet area is one of the more common reasons a water damage claim gets knocked back later.

Usually, yes, though the toilet is the one with the most constraints. Waste pipes rely on gravity, so relocating a toilet means checking the distance and fall available to the existing sewer connection. On a suspended timber floor there’s normally room to work under the bathroom; on a concrete slab it can mean cutting and re-coring, which adds cost and time. 

Showers, baths and vanities are generally easier to move. Give us the layout you’d like for your renovation plumbing and we’ll tell you what’s achievable before you spend money on a design.
