Single Room Renovations in Melbourne

We take on kitchens, bathrooms and laundries as standalone projects, and we build them to the same standard as our whole-home work - same trades, same detailing, same site management.

That standard has a floor. Our bathrooms start at $25,000 and kitchens at $30,000 and they involve full removal back to frame, services replacement, waterproofing certified to AS 3740, and custom joinery. If you're after a cosmetic update - new benchtops, resurfaced cabinetry, a fixture swap - we're not the right builder, and we'd rather say so now than waste your time.

What we do

Kitchens

Full strip-out, structural changes where the layout needs them, relocated plumbing and electrical, custom joinery, stone, and appliance integration. Where a kitchen renovation involves removing a wall - which it often does - that's structural work and we'll treat it as such.

Modern bathroom renovation featuring warm terracotta painted upper walls, vertical white kitkat tiles, floating timber vanity with vessel sink, curved arch mirror, and brushed brass tapware.

Bathrooms and ensuites

Back to frame, re-waterproofed to AS 3740, new services, floor levelling and falls done properly, tiling, and fixtures. Most bathroom failures we're called to fix are waterproofing failures, which is invisible work that costs the most to get wrong.

Laundries

Usually alongside a bathroom or kitchen, often reconfigured to recover space. From $15,000 as part of a larger project. Wider interior work - living spaces, bedrooms and storage - sits under interior renovations, and outdoor and landscaping projects are handled separately.

Timeframes

Bathroom or ensuite

4–8 weeks

Kitchen

6–12 weeks

Laundry

3–6 weeks

Material lead times are the main variable - stone, custom joinery and imported fixtures can add weeks. We order early and tell you the critical path at the start.

When a single room isn't the answer

Worth saying plainly: if you're planning to renovate the kitchen this year, the bathroom next year and extend the year after, you'll spend meaningfully more than doing it as one project - in duplicated trade mobilisation, duplicated services work, and living through three disruptions instead of one. It's also harder to get a coherent result.

If that's your trajectory, it's worth costing Whole-Home Renovations, or Open-Plan Living & Rear Extensions if the problem is really that the back of the house is closed off. We'll give you both numbers at the consultation.

Common
Questions

Do you do cosmetic updates or partial renovations?

No. We work back to frame, because that's where the standard we're comfortable putting our name to starts. For smaller updates you want a different kind of trade.

Can I stay in the house?

For a single room, generally yes - though a sole-bathroom renovation means arranging alternatives for four to eight weeks.

Do you supply fixtures and joinery, or do I?

Either. Most clients have us supply, because it keeps responsibility for lead times and defects in one place. If you want to supply particular pieces yourself, that's fine - we'll note them as client-supplied in the quote.

Is the work warranted?

Yes - registered building practitioner with full public liability and domestic building insurance. Our work carries a structural warranty.
