Bathroom renovations are one of the most valuable upgrades you can make to an Auckland property.

However, bathrooms require precision due to:

• Waterproofing regulations

• Plumbing requirements

• Ventilation compliance

• Space constraints

We deliver bathroom renovations that balance functionality and design. From luxury marble bathrooms to practical family spaces, every project is built to meet New Zealand building standards.

If your renovation requires Auckland Council approval, we guide you through the consent process and ensure compliance.

We schedule trades, coordinate materials and oversee quality control at every stage.

5. Construction

Our qualified builders complete structural and finishing work to high standards.

6. Completion and Handover

Because renovation projects involve multiple moving parts, strong project management is essential. Our structured system ensures clarity from start to finish.

The Renovation Process Explained

The cost of renovations in Auckland varies depending on:

• Scope of work

• Structural changes required

• Level of finish

• Material selections

• Compliance requirements

For example, cosmetic renovations differ significantly from structural renovations involving load bearing walls or extensions.

During your consultation, we provide transparent estimates and outline the factors influencing cost. This helps you make informed decisions before construction begins.

Renovation Costs in Auckland

Auckland is known for its villas, bungalows and heritage homes. Renovating these properties requires care and expertise.

Common considerations include:

• Preserving original features

• Matching timber profiles

• Upgrading insulation

• Ensuring structural stability

• Meeting modern compliance standards

Because character homes often present hidden challenges, experience matters. We assess risks early and plan accordingly.

Renovating Character Homes in Auckland

Many homeowners debate whether to renovate or rebuild.

Renovations may be the right choice if:

• You love your current location

• The structure is fundamentally sound

• You want to retain character features

• Rebuild costs exceed renovation scope

In contrast, a new build may suit properties with severe structural limitations.

We can advise on both options to ensure your investment aligns with your long term goals.

• Experienced renovation specialists
