From the outset of the project and throughout, a totally friendly and professional service. Was impressed with the clear explanation of the plan of the project stages. Consultations were detailed, knowledgeable and informative. During the planning stage appointments were arranged promptly and conveniently which I very much appreciated. The supporting literature and IT portal to allow me to track the project were excellent. I could review any plans and documents related to the project with ease at any time. Communication was always responsive. During the build stage I was kept informed of progress. Change requests were dealt with quickly, efficiently and managed well. Highly recommended.

We’ve completed thousands of renovations of all shapes and sizes, each one deserving the same excellent service that our Refresh clients have come to expect.

We’re here to help at every step along the way, from inspiration and advice to cost-effective solutions and day-saving ideas.

A smoother bathroom renovation process

Our 5-step approach to renovations was designed to keep projects running smooth, on schedule, and within budget.

Step 1

Briefing / Initial Consultation

Starting off your bathroom renovation journey with a thorough consultation gets everyone on the same page. It’s an opportunity for you to share all your ideas, big and small, with your Renovation Consultant. If you need a walk-in shower for ageing parents or an extra tub for washing your dog, now is the time to let us know!

Step 2

Concept and Feasibility

Once you’ve shared your goals, you and your Renovation Consultant will review concept designs to determine what’s achievable. You may find that you need to make tweaks to come in under budget, or that you can make some unexpected upgrades such as opting for a marble vanity. Regardless of what they may be, this is a great stage in the process to make changes to your bathroom design.

Step 3

Working Drawings and Costing

Working drawings are the next step. They differ from concept drawings because they take into account the functionality of your design and focus on aspects such as structural integrity and architectural engineering. You’ll always be in control, but to avoid additional expenses and delays further along, this is when you want to make any changes to the plans as it’s the last step before building begins. If no further alterations are necessary, you’ll be presented with a fixed quote and contract to sign off on before moving forward.

Step 4

Build / Construction Stage

Now is when you get to sit back and watch your bathroom take shape. Reliable contractors and trusted tradespeople, coordinated by your Renovation Consultant, will transform your existing space into the bathroom you've been dreaming of. If any unexpected issues arise, you can rest assured they’ll be dealt with promptly and with minimal disruption to your daily routine.

Step 5

Your Finished Renovation

That’s it! Your renovation is finished! Alongside your fantastic new bathroom, your Renovation Consultant will provide you with the necessary council documentation. A completed Code of Compliance certificate is required to prove that all craftsmanship was completed to a high standard. Keep that somewhere safe, and then enjoy your new bathroom!

How can I maximise storage space in my bathroom during a renovation?

Here are a few ways that we maximise storage space in our bathroom renovation projects

  • Vanity with Built-in Storage: Choose a vanity with ample storage space. Look for options with drawers, shelves, or cabinets to store toiletries, towels, and other bathroom essentials. Take a look at this Central Coast Bathroom Renovation where storage was maximised with an oversized vanity
  • Wall-Mounted Cabinets and Shelves: Install wall-mounted cabinets or shelves to utilise vertical space effectively. Take a look at this Melbourne Bathroom Renovation where vertical cabinets were incorporated into the design
  • Medicine Cabinet: Opt for a recessed medicine cabinet above the sink. These cabinets offer additional storage for medications, toiletries, and small items while saving space. Take a look at this Illawarra Bathroom Renovation where a recessed medicine cabinet was incorporated into the design
  • Built-in Niches and Recessed Shelves: During the bathroom renovation planning and design stage, consider incorporating built-in niches or recessed shelves in your shower or bath area. View this Melbourne Bathroom Renovation which incorporated a recessed niche shelf into the shower design
  • Towel Bars and Hooks: Install towel bars or hooks on the back of the bathroom door or on unused wall space to hang towels and robes.

Do I need a building permit for a bathroom renovation in Australia?

In Australia, the requirement for a building permit for a bathroom renovation can vary depending on the state or territory where the bathroom renovation is taking place and the specific scope of the project. Generally, if your bathroom renovation involves structural changes, such as removing or adding walls, altering plumbing or electrical systems, or making modifications to the building's structure, a building permit is likely to be required.Your Refresh Renovations consultant can consult with your local council or building authority on your behalf to determine the specific regulations and requirements applicable to your area during the working drawing and concept stage of the process.

How much does a bathroom renovation in Australia cost?

Bathroom renovations in Australia can generally range anywhere between $16,000 - $75,000+*, depending on the project specifications, site conditions and a range of other factors. View our Bathroom Renovation Costs page for more information.

What factors influence the cost of a bathroom renovation project?

Here are some key considerations:

Size and complexity: The size of your bathroom and the complexity of the renovation project will impact the overall cost. 

Materials and fixtures: The materials, fixtures, and finishes that you choose will affect the cost. 

Design and customisation: Customised features, unique design elements, or specialised installations, such as a spa bath or intricate tiling patterns, can increase the cost of the renovation.

Structural changes and permits: If the renovation involves structural changes, such as removing walls or altering the layout, it may require additional permits or engineering work, which can add to the overall cost.

Accessibility and compliance: Modifications to ensure accessibility for people with disabilities may require additional work and specialised features, impacting the budget.

What are some popular bathroom renovation trends in Australia?

This is a list of some of the common trends that we are seeing in our projects across Australia.

Modern Minimalism: Clean lines, simple colour palettes, and minimalistic designs have been on-trend. Bathrooms with sleek fixtures, frameless glass shower enclosures, and floating vanities create a contemporary and uncluttered aesthetic. View this bathroom renovation project that we completed in Melbourne in Modern Minimalist style.

Statement Tiles: Eye-catching tiles have been popular, including geometric patterns, intricate mosaics, and textured surfaces. Feature walls or floors with bold tiles can add visual interest and become a focal point in the bathroom. View this bathroom renovation project that we completed in Melbourne with a beautiful feature wall in the bathroom.

Freestanding Bathtubs: Freestanding bathtubs have gained popularity, offering a luxurious and spa-like feel. Clawfoot tubs, oval-shaped designs, and modern stand-alone tubs create a stylish centerpiece in the bathroom. View this bathroom renovation project that we completed in Illawarra which included a freestanding bathtub.

Black and Brass Accents: Black fixtures, such as faucets, showerheads, and hardware, paired with brass or gold accents, have been trendy. This combination adds a touch of sophistication and creates a striking contrast in the bathroom. View this bathroom renovation project that we completed in Melbourne with Black fixtures.

Natural Elements: Incorporating natural elements, such as timber vanities, stone countertops, and greenery, has been a popular trend. These elements bring warmth, texture, and a connection to nature into the bathroom space. View this bathroom renovation project that we completed in Melbourne which included a timber vanity.

Smart Technology: The integration of smart technology has been on the rise, with features like motion-sensor lighting, digital showers, heated floors, and smart mirrors providing convenience, energy efficiency, and enhanced functionality. View this bathroom renovation that we completed in Perth which included a large LED mirror that provided a beautiful yet practical addition.

Remember that trends can change over time, and it's important to consider your personal preferences and the overall style of your home when embarking on a bathroom renovation project to ensure we create a room that suits your style and needs.
