A Budget Bathroom is a refreshed, modernised look to a tired, older style bathroom, replacing old with new; or, a renovation undertaken where water leaks or ingress have been found in an existing bathroom or ensuite.
A Budget Bathroom comprises demolition of the current bathroom, which includes removing existing vanities, shower frames, towel rails etc; re waterproofing; new tiling and painting; and new for old fixtures and fittings from a nominated range through our preferred suppliers.
A Budget Bathroom does not include re-sheeting of walls, or the addition or moving of plumbing points (ie. adding a bath or a toilet into an existing floorplan where there wasn’t one), or the moving of walls … these are variations that we can certainly include, but don’t form the basis of a Budget Bathroom.
Our initial quote for your Budget Bathroom will have a monetary allowance for these PC (personal choice) items – you are welcome to purchase your own PC items if you want to upgrade or choose from another supplier, but the cost of the bathroom will increase according to how much you spend above the $allowance in the quotation (for example, we have allowed $1000 for a vanity unit in the quote, but you have found one you would prefer for $1500 – the job cost will increase by the amount of $500, the difference between the allowance and the actual cost).
This is the most common question from our clients, as it is also the most popular choice for modern bathrooms – the short answer is, that we can certainly provide this service, however, being an expensive addition given tile and tiling costs, this is the one item which could blow the Budget out of the Bathroom! A standard Budget Bathroom quote will include one row of skirting tiles around the wall perimeter, with painted wall surrounds.
Our quotation would then include stripping the existing wall sheeting back to the frame and fixing the plumbing issue before proceeding.
They will need to come out as part of the demolition – we have the licensed removalists on hand to do this, and to dispose of legally, the costs of which will be included in the quotation.
Excellent choice! Hopefully by now you have an idea of what we do, and what can be achieved to suit your requirements. The next step is to use our Instant Estimate tool to give you a ballpark cost, and if that fits your budget, please contact us to arrange an on-site visit, and we will be in touch to arrange an appointment to see you.
