Our Process

8-Stage Bathroom Renovation Process

Structured workflow ensuring quality, compliance, and on-time delivery

1

Design Consultation & Planning

Review architectural plans, coordinate with designers and builders, map fixture locations, drainage falls, and vent requirements. Identify structural constraints and waterproofing needs.

2

Demolition & Strip-Out

Remove existing fixtures, tiles, and pipework. Assess hidden condition of framing, drainage, and water supply. Coordinate asbestos removal if required in older homes.

3

Rough-In Installation

Install all in-wall and under-floor pipework. Position drainage, water supply, vent stacks, and fixture mounting frames. Pressure test system before concealment.

4

Waterproofing Coordination

Work with waterproofers to seal plumbing penetrations, install shower wastes, and prepare for membrane application. Ensure compliance with AS 3740 waterproofing standards.

5

Tiling & Trade Sequencing

Coordinate with tilers, electricians, and plasterers. Protect rough-ins and ensure accessibility for fit-off once wall and floor finishes are complete.

6

Fixture Fit-Off & Installation

Install toilets, vanities, showers, baths, tapware, and accessories. Seal all penetrations, align trims perfectly, and connect heated towel rails or underfloor heating.

7

Testing & Commissioning

Pressure test all water lines, check drainage flow and falls, test TMVs for temperature accuracy, and verify all fixtures operate flawlessly.

8

Final QA & Handover

Conduct final walkthrough, clean workspace, issue NSW Certificates of Compliance, provide product warranties, and demonstrate fixture operation to homeowner.

Professional Installation

Why Licensed Plumbers Matter

Avoid costly mistakes that void warranties and damage your home

Water Damage & Leaks

$10,000 - $50,000

Slow leaks behind tiles or in walls cause structural rot, mould, and ceiling damage. Insurance often won't cover unlicenced work.

Failed Waterproofing

$15,000 - $30,000

Incorrect penetration seals or membrane application leads to water ingress. Entire bathroom may need demolition and re-waterproofing.

Non-Compliant Drainage

$3,000 - $8,000

Incorrect falls, vent blockages, or trap depths cause slow drainage, smells, and failed inspections requiring re-work.

Voided Warranties

$2,000 - $10,000

Manufacturers void warranties on tapware, showers, and smart toilets if not installed by licenced professionals.

FAQs

Bathroom Renovation Plumbing FAQs

Common questions from Sydney homeowners and builders

How long does bathroom plumbing take during a renovation?
Rough-in typically occurs in the first week of renovation and takes 1-3 days depending on complexity. Fit-off happens after tiling is complete and takes 1-2 days. Total timeline depends on coordination with other trades and size of bathroom.
Can you work with my builder or designer?
Yes. We regularly collaborate with builders, architects, interior designers, and waterproofers. We share schedules, review plans together, and coordinate installation to keep your renovation on track without delays.
Do you supply fixtures or install mine?
Both. We can supply premium fixtures through our trade partners at competitive prices, or install fixtures you've purchased. We check compatibility and compliance before installation begins.
What compliance certificates do you provide?
You receive NSW Certificate of Compliance for all plumbing work, waterproofing penetration documentation, TMV testing certificates, backflow device certificates (if applicable), and product warranties.
Can you relocate fixtures to change the bathroom layout?
Absolutely. We can relocate showers, toilets, vanities, and baths to create your ideal layout. This requires new drainage runs, water supply extensions, and structural coordination which we manage end-to-end.
Do you coordinate waterproofing?
Yes. We work closely with waterproofing contractors to ensure plumbing penetrations are correctly sealed and comply with AS 3740. We can recommend trusted waterproofers or work with your chosen contractor.
What fixtures do you install?
We install all bathroom fixtures including toilets (wall-hung, smart, standard), showers (rain heads, multi-head, digital), baths (freestanding, built-in, spa), vanities (wall-hung, double basin), tapware, heated towel rails, and accessories.
Can you install smart bathroom technology?
Yes. We install smart toilets with bidet functions, digital shower controls with preset temperatures, heated floors, towel rail thermostats, and sensor tapware. All integrated with existing electrical systems.
How do you minimise disruption during renovation?
We coordinate schedules with other trades, protect finished surfaces, keep workspaces clean, and communicate clearly about when water will be off. Most homes remain liveable by using alternate bathrooms during work.
What if I want underfloor heating?
We coordinate installation of hydronic or electric underfloor heating during rough-in stage. Pipework or heating mats are installed before waterproofing and tiling. We connect to thermostatic controls at fit-off.
