Small bathroom renovations
Smart layouts and finishes that make small bathrooms feel bigger, brighter and more practical.
Ensuite Renovations on the Gold Coast
We renovate ensuites right across the Gold Coast and into the Northern Rivers. An ensuite is a small room doing a lot of work, so the setout matters more than it does anywhere else in the house. Where the door swings, where the screen opens and where the floor falls all have to agree with each other.
We resolve all of that on a drawing first, then build to it. You'll see the layout and the finishes before anything is ordered.

How a ensuite renovation actually runs
Every stage happens in this order, and you’ll know which one you’re in and what comes next.
- 01
Setout on paper
We measure the room and draw it before anything comes out. In a space this size a hundred millimetres decides whether a door clears a towel rail, so it gets settled while it's still a line on a drawing.
- 02
Strip-out and rough-in
The old room comes out and the new plumbing and electrical go in. Ensuites often back onto a bedroom wall, so we'll agree with you beforehand how we protect the room next door.
- 03
Waterproofing
The membrane goes on and is certified. Small rooms have proportionally more corners and junctions than large ones, and those are exactly where the detailing has to be right.
- 04
Tiling and glass
Floors are screeded to fall, then tiled from the drawing. The screen is measured after tiling so it fits the room as it was actually built.
- 05
Fit-off and handover
The joinery goes in, then the fixtures and finishes you chose. Then we water-test, walk you through it and clean up.
Finishes and materials
What you’ll be choosing from
Wall-hung joinery
Keeping the floor visible under the vanity makes a small room read as larger. It also makes it much easier to clean around.
Large-format tile
Fewer grout lines make a small ensuite feel less busy. We'll show you the setout so you can see where the cuts will land before you choose a size.
Glass and screens
A frameless panel keeps the sightline open across the room. Where the opening won't allow one, a semi-frameless screen does the same job with a slimmer frame.
Ventilation
A properly sized exhaust matters more in a small room than a large one, and a heated towel rail does as much for damp as it does for comfort.
Common questions
About ensuite renovations, answered
Sometimes, and it depends on the floor area and where the drainage runs. We'll show you the layout options at the measure and be straight with you about what the room can take.
Usually, yes, since that's how most ensuites are reached. We protect the floor and the path in, cover what needs covering, and clean up at the end of each day.
Yes. If you'd like the two rooms to read as a pair we'll work from the same finishes schedule, and if you'd rather they were different we'll design them that way.
