Bathroom renovations across Greater Geelong.

Greater Geelong is home to more than 270,000 people across an enormous range of housing — and that variety is exactly why a local specialist matters. The kind of bathroom renovation a Newtown Edwardian needs is nothing like an Armstrong Creek new-build, and a Lara walk-in conversion is different again. We know the local stock, the council requirements, and what tends to be hiding behind the tiles in each area.

Heritage & established suburbs.

Newtown, Geelong West, Manifold Heights and East Geelong — Edwardian and Victorian homes with original wet areas, almost always needing a full AS 3740 re-membrane and a heritage-sympathetic design that suits the house.

Post-war & family suburbs.

Belmont, Grovedale, Marshall, Highton, Wandana Heights and Waurn Ponds — 1950s to 1990s brick veneer with dated bathrooms ripe for full renovation, combined ensuite-and-main-bath projects, and a growing demand for ageing-in-place conversions.

Growth corridor & the coast.

Armstrong Creek, Mount Duneed, Charlemont and Lara, out to the Bellarine and Surf Coast — builder-grade bathrooms being upgraded, second-bathroom adds, and coastal homes where humidity makes proper waterproofing and ventilation non-negotiable.

Council, compliance & coverage.

Most of our work sits within the City of Greater Geelong, with the Surf Coast suburbs under Surf Coast Shire. A standard like-for-like bathroom rarely needs a building permit, but the waterproofing must be certified to AS 3740 and the plumbing completed by a licensed plumber with a Compliance Certificate. Work over $16,000 is carried out under VBA registration with domestic building insurance. Where a permit is needed — moving external walls, or a heritage-overlay change — we lodge it with the right council on your behalf.
