Pro Tip: Set aside 10–15% of your budget for unexpected discoveries, such as hidden water damage or plumbing issues.
Several key factors determine the final cost of your project:
A larger bathroom requires more materials and labour. Even a small increase in square metres can add thousands to your total cost.
Your selection of tiles, vanities, and fixtures has a major impact:
Keeping the same toilet, shower, and vanity positions saves money by avoiding extra plumbing and electrical work. Moving fixtures increases cost significantly.
Every Canberra bathroom must meet Australian Standards for waterproofing and drainage. Cutting corners may save money upfront but can lead to expensive leaks and mould problems later.
Extras like rain showers, underfloor heating, or freestanding tubs increase the budget but also add luxury and resale value.
Ethan and the team did a great job in the renovation of our ensuite. We got practical advice on what would work well and the workmanship was top notch. The timeframe for completion was accurate and the boys were very careful regarding keeping the worksite neat and tidy and disposing of rubbish. We would have no hesitation in recommending Ethan to anyone considering bathroom renovations.

It really depends! No bathroom renovations are exactly the same. It will vary on certain factors such as your final design, relocation of plumbing, fixtures and if there is any current asbestos that needs removing.
