Project Highlight
This complete bathroom renovation in MacGregor, Canberra, was designed to achieve a functional and contemporary finish with warm, neutral tones. Featuring floor-to-ceiling stone-look tiles, matte black fixtures, and a floating timber vanity, the space balances durability, comfort, and modern design.
Understanding the Client’s Needs
The existing bathroom required a full renovation to improve layout, durability, and visual appeal. Key considerations included:
- Desire for a modern, neutral colour palette
- Need for a low-maintenance, easy-to-clean surface finish
- Preference for bold matte black fixtures
- Full waterproofing and compliant construction
- Requirement for improved lighting and functionality
How We Got It Done
Planning & Site Preparation
The bathroom was fully demolished and prepared for new plumbing and electrical services. Comprehensive waterproofing and screed preparation ensured long-term durability and compliance with ACT building standards.
Structural Installation & Services
Plumbing was repositioned to accommodate wall-mounted mixer controls and a rainfall shower head. Electrical upgrades supported LED downlights and feature lighting, ensuring balanced illumination throughout the space.
Tiling, Fixtures & Finishing Touches
Large-format stone-look porcelain tiles were installed floor-to-ceiling, creating a seamless and low-maintenance finish. The walk-in shower features a frameless glass panel with matte black fixtures, while the built-in bathtub sits beneath a frosted window to maximise natural light and privacy. A floating timber vanity with integrated basin, round wall-mounted mirror, black heated towel ladder, recessed shower niche, and linear drain complete the refined, contemporary look.
Delivering the Solution
The completed bathroom delivers a well-balanced, contemporary space defined by clean lines, warm textures, and durable materials. The neutral palette ensures timeless appeal, while matte black fixtures introduce contrast and sophistication without overwhelming the design.
With full waterproofing, quality screed preparation, and precise installation of premium fittings, this renovation reflects the workmanship of our experienced bathroom renovation specialists in Canberra.
