Planning a new bathroom or laundry? Compare local bathroom renovation specialists across Wollongong, Shellharbour, Kiama and the Illawarra for complete renovations, design, waterproofing, tiling and accessible bathrooms, then contact them directly.
A bathroom renovation usually involves several trades: demolition, plumbing, electrical, waterproofing, tiling and carpentry. Many renovators manage all of them for you, while others specialise in one trade. Ask who is responsible for each stage and who you deal with if something goes wrong.
Failed waterproofing is one of the most common and costly bathroom defects. Waterproofing is a licensed trade in NSW, so ask how the membrane will be installed and whether a waterproofing certificate is provided.
Many complete bathroom renovations cost more than $20,000. Above that amount, a detailed written contract and a Home Building Compensation Fund certificate are required.
Bathrooms in homes built before 1990 can have asbestos sheeting behind the tiles. Have it checked before demolition starts.
It depends on the size, the scope and product lead times. Ask for a written schedule that shows each stage, from demolition to final clean.
Internal renovations that keep the bathroom in the same place often do not need approval, but changes to the structure or layout might. Check with your council or ask your renovator.
Expect a waterproofing certificate, a plumbing Certificate of Compliance, a Certificate of Compliance for Electrical Work, and a Home Building Compensation Fund certificate for jobs over $20,000.
