Bathroom Renovations in Heidelberg
Heidelberg is a mix of prestige period stock in the Old Heidelberg pocket, 1950s and 1960s brick homes in the middle streets, and townhouse infill closer to the Austin. Bathroom renovations here span the full range: heritage-sensitive work on Edwardians, contemporary rebuilds on mid-century homes, and compact luxury bathrooms in townhouses.

Bathrooms we've completed nearby.
Twelve stages. Same order, every job.
Every Heidelberg bathroom runs the same twelve-stage build: site protection, demolition, plumbing and electrical rough-in, wall and floor preparation, screeding, waterproofing, tiling, vanity and cabinet fit-off, shower screen, detailed clean and final handover.
Everything under one contract
Built for how Heidelberg homes actually live.
Every material we specify for a Heidelberg bathroom has to earn its place three ways: it has to look right in the home, it has to hold up under Melbourne water conditions, and it has to 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, no re-grouting inside the warranty period.
- Tapware
WELS-rated tapware with 15-year manufacturer warranty. 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 Heidelberg.
Do you work with our interior designer?
Yes — we regularly build to third-party design documentation and are happy to co-ordinate through the build with your designer or architect.
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.
Reading that pays for itself.
