REQUEST A FREE BATHROOM RENOVATION QUOTE

A quote is only as useful as the information behind it. Start here with the basics of your bathroom, ensuite or laundry in Murrumbeena or a nearby suburb. Your request opens the first four stages of the work: consultation, assessment, design and then a written quote for the room you actually want.

ON THIS PAGE

The request is stage 01 of 12. Nothing is ordered or demolished until after the quote stage.

STAGE 01 · CONSULTATION

TELL US ABOUT YOUR BATHROOM

A few clear lines are enough. Say which room it is, what is not working now and what you would like it to become. Plain language is fine: you do not need trade terms to get a useful conversation started.

Only your name, email and message are required. Phone, location, subject, budget and timeframe are optional.

We use these details to respond to your enquiry. Please avoid sending sensitive personal information.

Have a general question rather than a renovation in mind? Use the contact page instead.

BEFORE YOU SEND

Name the room

A main bathroom, an ensuite, a small bathroom, a laundry, just the shower, or a shower that is leaking. Each starts from a different scope.

Describe the problem, not only the wish

Hollow-sounding tiles near the shower, mould on the ceiling, or a vanity that stops the door opening. Problems like these tell us what the assessment needs to check.

Say what must stay

A bath you want to keep, a window that cannot move or a period detail worth saving. Tell us early so the design works around it.

Unsure about money?

The Bathroom Renovation Cost Guide explains what moves the price up or down, so you can decide what matters before you ask.

STAGE 02 · ASSESSMENT

PHOTOS AND MEASUREMENTS THAT HELP

You do not need drawings. Phone photos and a tape measure tell us a great deal about a room before anyone sees it in person. Describe the room in your message and have photos ready for the consultation, along with the measurements below.

Five useful photos

01The whole room from the doorway, in daylight if you can

02The shower or bath, including the floor waste and screen

03Any damage: cracked grout, lifting tiles, stained skirting or swollen vanity panels

04The ceiling, exhaust fan and window

05The other side of the shower wall, if you suspect a leak

Six measurements worth taking

01Room length and width at floor level

02Ceiling height

03Door width and which way it swings

04Window position and sill height

05Width of the current vanity and shower recess

06Distance from the centre of the toilet to the nearest wall

STAGES 01–04 · BEFORE WE PICK UP A TOOL

WHAT HAPPENS AFTER YOU SEND IT

Your request starts the planning half of the job. Materials, demolition and the trades all come later. You can see the full running order in our 12-stage bathroom renovation process.

01

Consultation

We talk through your request: the room, what is not working, how your household uses it and what you want changed. This is the time to raise anything you must keep or cannot live with.

02

Assessment

We check the existing room: dimensions, plumbing positions, ventilation, the condition of the floor and walls, and any signs of past water damage. That way the plan is based on what is really there.

03

Design

We settle the layout, fixtures and materials: where the shower goes, the vanity size, tiles and storage. Read how this stage works on Bathroom Design.

04

Quote

Once the scope is defined, the quote is written against that design. You are looking at a price for the room you discussed and agreed on, not a rough guess from a photo.

Warm modern bedroom with timber furnishings, a bed, window and an adjoining bathroom containing a shower and toilet.

QUESTIONS

BEFORE YOU REQUEST A QUOTE

Straight answers to the practical questions that come up before starting a request.

Does it cost anything to request a quote?

No, the quote is free. It comes after consultation, assessment and design, so it reflects your actual room rather than a general estimate.

I only have a leaking shower. Is this the right page?

Yes. A leak can sometimes be fixed without a full renovation, depending on where the water is getting out, and finding that is what the assessment is for. Describe where you see water or damage, and read Leaking Shower Repairs to see what a repair can involve.

Do I need a budget figure before I ask?

No. A rough range helps guide design choices, but plenty of people start without one. The consultation is where scope and priorities get sorted out.

I have not chosen tiles or fixtures yet. Is that a problem?

Not at all. Selections are made during the design stage. If you want to start collecting ideas, try Bathroom Tile Ideas or Small Bathroom Ideas.

Can one request cover a bathroom and a laundry?

Yes. Mention both rooms in your details. Laundries use many of the same wet-area trades, so planning them together can make sense.

What if I would rather talk before sending anything?

Send a short message through the contact page. When you are ready to plan the room, come back here.
