Bathroom Renovations in Wollongong & the Illawarra
Bathroom renovations across Wollongong & the Illawarra, from a tired ensuite refresh to a full strip-out with proper waterproofing. Fair, upfront pricing.
What Bathroom Renovations Cover in Wollongong
Fixture & Tiling Refresh
Vanity, toilet, tapware and tiling updated without moving plumbing or touching the layout — the fastest, most budget-friendly way to make an old bathroom feel new again.
Full Strip-Out Renovations
Back to the studs: new waterproofing, tiling floor to ceiling, fixtures, and a layout that actually works for you — including moving plumbing if the space needs it.
Ensuite & Powder Room Renovations
Small spaces need smart design more than big ones do. We specialise in getting the layout right in a compact footprint.
Waterproofing & Compliance Work
Every bathroom renovation lives or dies on the waterproofing underneath the tiles. This isn't an area to cut corners.

Bathroom Renovation Pricing in Wollongong — What Affects the Cost
There's no honest single number — here's what actually moves the price.
Scope — fixture refresh vs. full strip-out are genuinely different jobs
Size — a small ensuite still needs every trade (waterproofer, tiler, plumber) to show up, so it doesn't scale down as much as people expect
Layout changes — moving plumbing adds real cost; keeping the existing layout keeps the budget down
Fixture and tile quality — entry-level through to premium ranges

Bathroom Renovation FAQs
How much does a bathroom renovation cost in the Illawarra?+
As a rough guide: a fixture/tiling refresh typically runs $10,000–$18,000, a mid-range full strip-out $18,000–$30,000, and a high-end renovation $30,000–$50,000+. Size matters less than people expect — even a small bathroom needs every trade to attend. Use our instant estimate tool below for a number closer to your job.
Why does waterproofing matter so much?+
Because it's the one part of a bathroom renovation you can't see or fix cheaply once it's wrong. A failed membrane means water tracking into walls and subfloors. Every wet area we work on is waterproofed to AS 3740 and flood-tested before tiling.
Can I renovate just the ensuite, or does it need to match the main bathroom?+
Either — plenty of people do the ensuite first and the main bathroom later, depending on budget and which one gets more daily use.
How long does a bathroom renovation take?+
A fixture refresh can be done in days. A full strip-out typically takes 2–5 weeks depending on scope, waterproofing cure times, and any layout changes.
Do you move plumbing if I want to change the layout?+
Yes, though it adds cost and time compared with keeping fixtures in their existing positions — we'll talk through the trade-off during your quote.
