What a renovation actually covers
One builder does the whole job, so nobody is waiting on anybody and there’s one person to ring. This is what you get, and it’s priced the same way on your quote.
Strip out and make good
- Protection through the house and the room stripped to the frame
- Old fixtures, tile and lining removed and carted away
- The floor opened up and looked at before anything is quoted as final
- Any soft timber or old patching replaced while it’s open
- Everything that hangs on a wall planned before the walls are closed up
The wet area
- Plumbing and electrical roughed in by licensed trades, with certificates
- The floor set to drain properly
- Certified waterproofing
- The finished waterproofing checked before a single tile goes down
Finishes and fit off
- Wall and floor tiling, with the layout drawn before the first sheet is cut
- Vanity, basin, toilet, bath and shower screen supplied or installed
- Taps, rails, shelves and mirror fitted and adjusted
- Silicone, grout, paint and trims finished and the room cleaned
- A walk through with you, and anything on the list fixed before we invoice
Protecting the rest of the house matters more here than usual. The walk from the driveway to the bathroom is often long, and everything makes that trip twice.

The homes here
The homes we work on in Broken Head
The houses at Broken Head sit among the trees on steep ground, which is why the driveway is the first thing we look at. They range from original beach shacks through to larger newer homes, and we work on both.
Styles and finishes
What people choose around here
People here want a room that suits the setting and copes with coastal air. These are the finishes that come up most often.
Tile
Large format and classic subway
Large format keeps the grout lines down and the room feeling bigger. Subway is the one that still looks right in twenty years. Both are easy to keep clean.
Tapware
Brushed stainless, chrome or matt black
Close to the beach we point people at finishes that hold up in salt air. Brushed stainless and good chrome are the safest, and matt black is popular where the fittings are meant to recede.
Vanity
Wall hung, timber or stone topped
Wall hung keeps the floor clear and makes a smaller room feel bigger. A timber front warms up a pale coastal room, and a stone top is the finish most people want to touch.
Screen
Frameless glass, or a slim frame
Frameless keeps the room open. A slim frame in black or brushed metal reads a little softer and hides the marks better.
Walls
Pale tile, full height in the wet area
Most people here want light. Full height tile in the shower and paint elsewhere is the usual split, and it keeps the cost where it does the most good.
How it works
How your renovation runs
Every job runs the same way, so you know the order before anything starts.
We come out and measure up, price it in writing, then book the trades in a run so the job keeps moving once it has started.
- A call, then a visit to measure up and look at the room
- A written quote, with the amount we have allowed for anything you have not chosen yet
- Strip out, back to the frame, and everything carted away
- Water feeds and electrical, then certified waterproofing
- Tiling, then the fit off, then the final clean
- The waterproofing certification handed over at the end
Built where the land allowed
