Frequently Asked Questions

  • Do I need council approval for a bathroom renovation?

    In most cases, minor bathroom renovations like updating tiles, fixtures, and cabinetry do not require council approval. However, if the renovation involves structural changes, altering plumbing systems, or expanding the bathroom’s footprint, permits or approvals may be needed depending on local building regulations.


    Renovations in apartments or strata properties may also require approval from the building’s management. It’s important to check with your local council or consult a licensed builder to ensure compliance with regulations and to avoid costly penalties or delays.


  • What are the most popular bathroom renovation trends right now?

    Popular bathroom renovation trends in Australia include walk-in showers with frameless glass, wall-hung vanities, matte black or brushed brass fixtures, and large format tiles for a seamless look. Many homeowners are opting for minimalist, spa-inspired designs with natural materials like timber and stone. Backlit mirrors, smart lighting, and underfloor heating are also gaining popularity. Storage solutions such as recessed shelves and floating cabinetry help keep the space clutter-free.


    While trends are helpful for inspiration, choosing a design that reflects your lifestyle and home’s character ensures the bathroom stays functional and timeless.

  • What is the best layout for a small bathroom renovation?

    The best layout for a small bathroom focuses on maximising space and functionality. Wall-mounted vanities, compact toilets, and frameless shower screens create a more open feel. Placing the shower in the corner and using sliding doors can free up floor space. Large mirrors and light-coloured tiles enhance the sense of openness, while recessed shelves add storage without cluttering the room. It’s important to consider the natural flow of movement and position essential fixtures like the toilet, vanity, and shower in a way that reduces congestion.


    A well-planned small bathroom layout balances practicality with aesthetics and can make even a tight space feel comfortable and stylish.
