Custom bathroom designs

There once was a time when bathrooms were designed to be functional – and nothing more. Those days are behind us and the modern bathroom includes a range of custom features and fixtures, colours, materials and designs to become a sanctuary in a contemporary home.

 

Modern bathroom trends focus just as much on the comfort and aesthetics of the bathroom as the functionality. This includes innovative lighting and plumbing solutions, cabinets and more. There are features like heated floors and towel racks, recessed fixtures for a sleek, modern look and sunken lighting solutions to provide soft, warm light.

 

The design of your modern, custom bathroom is only limited by your imagination and our team can help you with custom solutions for all aspects of your space, including:

 

Tapware

Instead of finding the same tap in every bathroom, there are literally thousands of solutions available for modern bathrooms. Chrome, nickel and brass are commonly used to elevate the profile of a bathroom while matte whites and blacks have become an alternative finish to shiny metal.

 

Modern tapware doesn’t just look different, it has been designed with water efficiency in mind while also delivering a constant stream of water for your needs. Traditional, modern, low-profile or bold – the choice is yours when it comes to your tapware choices.

 

 

Toilets

Modern toilets are worth the investment as they give your bathroom a fresh new look and come packed with a range of features you won’t find in a conventional model. They are available in different sizes, can be floor or wall-mounted, have water efficiency technologies, soft closing seats (to prevent loud noises and damage) and whisper-quiet operation.

 

 

Basins

Your vanity basin is a place where you can truly express yourself in a modern bathroom. It is the central feature and the place where you have the most scope to personalise and customise your vanity basin. There are many options available, from the traditional to the ultra-modern, bespoke and unique.

 

Your basin can be customised to meet your needs, which could mean extra storage or twin basins and mirrors for a busy family bathroom. You can choose from modern or traditional tapware, surfaces like laminate, marble or timber, plus, there are many options for personalisation when it comes to the lighting, plumbing fixtures and more.

 

 

Baths and showers

You can custom design baths and showers to meet your space requirements while giving you all of the features you need. Dual ‘his and hers’ showers are very much on-trend while you can still include bath options for the children even in smaller spaces with custom-designed tubs.

 

 

Hot water systems

There is no need to ever run out of hot water again with modern water heating solutions. Natural gas and solar hot water systems have been designed to deliver hot water when you need it, even in the mornings and evenings when the entire household is clambering for their chance to use the bathroom. Plus, modern solutions offer greater energy efficiencies, so you can enjoy cheaper electricity bills as well.

 

 

The benefits of renovating your bathroom

 

Increase property value

A high-grade bathroom renovation transforms the smallest room in the house into a fresh, contemporary space that’s inviting, clean, safe, and functional. Research shows that a new bathroom can increase the value of your property by up to 5%.

 

Reduce maintenance costs

Like any other room in the home, over time your bathroom will begin to show signs of wear and tear. Almost inevitably this means that repairs for cracked tiles, leaking taps, malfunctioning toilets, and dripping showers will become more likely. The older the bathroom becomes, the more frequent and potentially expensive these repairs may become. A new bathroom is covered by a warranty, so in the unlikely event that a repair is required, you won’t usually need to pay for it.

 

Improve water and energy efficiency

Older sanitary ware, water heaters and showers tend to be less energy-efficient than contemporary installations. In addition, new showers and toilets are designed to use less water, without compromising on performance. Not only are more efficient appliances better for the planet, they also have the potential to reduce your utility bills.

 

Improve bathroom safety

Over the years, humidity, cracks and compromised sealant can all provide the moist conditions in which mould and bacteria thrive. Older surfaces are made from materials that are less resistant to deterioration, providing the perfect habitat for germs. A new bathroom, made from modern, anti-bacterial materials, provides a safe environment for all members of the family.

 

You and your family deserve it

The bathroom renovations Tweed Heads residents receive from us are attractive and functional. A welcome addition to any home, a fresh bathroom adds a touch of well-deserved luxury and style.

FAQ’s

How much does it cost to renovate a bathroom?

Obviously the exact cost of a renovation depends on what you want doing, how much preparatory work is needed, and the size of the bathroom. In general, a smaller renovation will cost somewhere between $21,000 and $25,000, with larger bathrooms coming in somewhere between $25,000 and $30,000.

 

How long do bathroom renovations take?

You should allow a minimum of two weeks for a refurb that includes the removal of existing bathroom furniture, re-plastering, tiling, fitting the new suite, and necessary electrical and plumbing work. Note: this is an approximate timescale, so we will provide you with a detailed schedule that’s specific to your remodelling project.

 

Can I do a DIY renovation?

If you have the necessary tools, expertise, time, and patience, then you can attempt to do a DIY renovation. Remember that any electrical work needs to be carried out by a certified electrician. Also, note that it can cost more to right a botched DIY job than it does to just get the professionals in the first time.

Yes! Call 1300 881 902 for a FREE quote. We are located in Tweed Heads but offer bathroom renovation services for all homes and businesses from Byron Bay to Brisbane!

 

What adds value to a bathroom?

The bathroom joins the kitchen as the first room any prospective buyer will look at in a property. A remodel or renovation is going to lift the value of your home and it can be beneficial to add a second or even third bathroom to your home, maybe in the form of an ensuite. Energy and water-saving efficiencies will add plenty of value, along with features like warming in winter.

 

Is it worth it to add a second bathroom?

Most modern homes come with an ensuite and main bathroom as standard. If you live with your family, there can be competition for a single bathroom, so installing a second one is a great idea if you have the space. The money you spend will be reflected in the value of your home, which makes it a sound investment as well.
