Bathroom Renovation FAQs for Brisbane Homeowners

A standard complete bathroom or ensuite renovation generally falls between $29,000 and $35,000 excluding GST, including professional labour and standard materials. Room size, access, layout changes, tile and fixture selections, structural repairs and hidden conditions all affect the final fixed quote.

A complete scope commonly includes protection and strip-out, removal of linings where required, framing inspection, plumbing and electrical work, wet-area sheeting, waterproofing, tiling, fixtures, glazing, painting, rubbish removal and final cleaning. Your written quote confirms the exact inclusions for your room.

We provide a detailed fixed-price scope after inspecting the room and discussing the agreed selections. No upfront deposit is required; the quote explains the scope and payment stages before construction starts.

Most standard bathroom and ensuite renovations take about three to four weeks from construction start to handover. Shower and laundry renovations are often around two to three weeks. The confirmed programme depends on the scope, curing periods, product availability and any hidden repairs.

Before renovation work starts, we arrange for a sample of suspected material to be tested by a laboratory. If asbestos is confirmed, we provide a separate quote for removal by appropriately licensed asbestos professionals. Removal commonly costs around $2,000 to $3,000, depending on the material, quantity and site conditions.

Removing failed linings allows the exposed framing and substrates to be inspected. If hidden damage is found, we document the issue, explain the repair required and agree on any necessary variation before covering the area again.

The substrate, falls, junctions, penetrations and drainage connection are prepared before a compliant wet-area membrane is applied to the required areas. The membrane must be checked and allowed to cure before tiling proceeds.

Our family team manages the renovation as one coordinated project. Adam generally handles quotes and planning, Zoran oversees the build and workmanship, and Dean manages day-to-day site progress and trade scheduling.

Many like-for-like internal bathroom renovations do not require council approval, but structural changes or significant alterations to plumbing can introduce additional requirements. We assess the proposed work and advise what needs to be confirmed for your property.

Most clients remain at home, provided they have another usable bathroom and are comfortable with normal construction activity. The renovated room will be unavailable, and there will be noise, dust controls and trades moving through the agreed access path.

In most cases, yes. We do complete shower-only renovations, although complete bathroom renovations are our primary focus. Availability depends on our current workload, so during busy periods a smaller shower project may need to be scheduled for a later date. We will assess the shower, explain the work required and give you a realistic timeframe before you proceed.
