Bathroom Renovations in Bundoora
Bundoora spans a wide range of housing — original 1960s Housing Commission cream-brick homes, 1980s and 1990s family houses around La Trobe University, and newer apartment and townhouse developments along Plenty Road. Bathrooms we replace in Bundoora range from complete strip-outs of 1960s originals to apartment renovations where waterproofing and building consent are the critical path.

Built for how Bundoora homes actually live.
Every material we specify has to earn its place three ways: it has to look right in the home, hold up under Melbourne water conditions, and still be maintainable ten years from now — not just at handover.
- Tiles
P3/P4-rated porcelain on floors and shower zones (slip-safe when wet). Natural stone reserved for feature walls to avoid ongoing sealing.
- Grout
Waterproof epoxy grout in wet zones — no cracking, no mould regrowth and no re-grouting.
- Tapware
WELS-rated tapware. Brushed brass and gunmetal finishes are PVD-coated (not electroplated) to survive Melbourne water hardness.
- Joinery
Moisture-resistant board substrate on every vanity carcass — not standard MDF, which swells in a wet-area cabinet within four years.

Frequently asked in Bundoora.
Can you renovate our Bundoora apartment bathroom?
Yes. We manage body-corporate approvals, restrict noisy work to permitted hours, and use lift protection blankets on every material move. Waterproofing certificates go into the owners' corporation record.
Do you handle student-house rental upgrades?
Yes — Bundoora has a lot of long-hold rental stock and we regularly do durable, hard-wearing bathroom rebuilds designed for high turnover: porcelain tiles, robust joinery, and easy-clean tapware.
Do you provide fixed pricing?
Yes. Every quote we issue is fixed in writing before demolition begins, including tiles, tapware, waterproofing, plumbing, electrical and rubbish removal. There are no hourly surprises.
Are your trades licensed and insured?
All plumbing is completed by a licensed Victorian plumber who issues a Certificate of Compliance. All electrical work is completed by an A-Grade electrician who issues an Electrical Safety Certificate. We carry $20M public liability insurance.
How long does a bathroom renovation take?
A standard main bathroom takes three to four weeks on site once demolition starts. Ensuites usually run two and a half to three weeks. Timelines are written into the contract with a start and finish date.
