How We Got It Done
Planning & Site Preparation
Both bathrooms were reviewed together before construction to ensure the layouts, fixtures and finishes would work cohesively. The existing bathrooms were stripped out and prepared for the wall removal, revised plumbing and electrical services, waterproofing, tiling and new fixtures.
Wall Removal, Layout Changes & Services
Removing a wall in the main bathroom created the additional space needed for a larger, more practical layout. Plumbing and electrical services were adjusted to suit the new shower, bath, vanity and lighting positions. The ensuite services were also updated to support the new layout and modern fixtures, keeping the finished design clean and uncluttered.
Tiling, Fixtures & Finishing Touches
Full-height tiling was installed throughout both bathrooms, creating a seamless finish while making the spaces easier to clean and maintain. The main bathroom features a walk-in shower, freestanding bath and double vanity, providing greater functionality for everyday family use. Warm timber accents soften the modern finishes and introduce natural warmth across both spaces. Consistent fixtures, finishes and detailing connect the main bathroom and ensuite, creating a cohesive result throughout the home.
Delivering the Solution
The completed bathrooms deliver improved layouts, better movement and greater everyday functionality. The larger main bathroom now provides generous space for the walk-in shower, freestanding bath and double vanity, while the redesigned ensuite feels brighter, cleaner and easier to use.
Full-height tiling, warm timber accents and modern finishes create a cohesive look across both spaces. The result is two light-filled bathrooms that feel comfortable, practical and thoughtfully designed for modern living.
