Small rooms, done properly

Powder Rooms & Laundries

Powder rooms are where guests form opinions and laundries are where households live. Both are wet areas, both deserve real waterproofing, and both are compact, high-value projects we can usually turn around inside two weeks.

Scope

What this job includes.

  • Powder room renovations with feature-wall confidence
  • Laundry benches, hampers, drying rails and storage
  • Waterproofing certified, floor wastes checked
  • Compact fixture selections that still feel generous
  • Often combined with a bathroom project for one site setup
Our system: Laundries and powder rooms are wet areas under the same standard as bathrooms, so they get the same certified membrane, not a lick of paint.
How we quote it

Itemised down to the membrane.

The same seven-line proposal on every job, so this service is comparable against any other quote you collect.

The 7-line quote
  1. 1 The measured design. Laser-measured, drawn with every fixture placed, and signed off by you before demolition is booked.
  2. 2 Strip-out & disposal. Demolition, asbestos check on pre-1990 sheeting, skip and disposal, all on their own line.
  3. 3 Waterproofing, certified. The licensed waterproofer named, the membrane system named, and the certificate lodged. Never "included".
  4. 4 Screeds, falls & tiling. Screed with falls to the waste, tile supply by named range, laying pattern and trim profiles, priced exactly.
  5. 5 Plumbing & electrical. Licensed plumber and electrician, rough-in and fit-off, with compliance certificates itemised, not "allowances".
  6. 6 Fixtures & fittings, named. Vanity, tapware, screen and toilet by brand and model, so "equivalent" can never be swapped in.
  7. 7 Warranty & certificates. 10-year waterproofing and workmanship warranty in writing, plus every certificate in your handover pack.
If a quote doesn’t show these lines, you can’t compare it, and you don’t know what’s been cut.
How it runs

What happens, step by step.

1

Consult & measure

At your place. We measure the room, check the substrate and drainage, and talk budget honestly.

2

Design & fixed price

A drawn design with every fixture placed and a fixed, itemised proposal. You sign the scope, not a sketch.

3

Strip out, waterproof, certify

Demolition, new rough-in, screeds with proper falls, then certified waterproofing, inspected before a tile goes down.

4

Tile, fit off & hand over

Tiling, fixtures and glass installed, site cleaned, and a handover pack with every certificate and warranty.

Insured, covered, guaranteed

The paperwork behind the price.

Public liability to $20M, and a 10-year waterproofing & workmanship warranty, all in writing, all on request.

In Queensland, bathroom work over $3,300 requires a QBCC licence on the contract, and wet-area waterproofing must be done by a licensed waterproofer. Ours are on every proposal, the membrane is certified before tiling, and the 10-year waterproofing and workmanship warranty is in writing in your handover pack.

The cover, the guarantee, and how to check each one.
Questions, answered

Powder Rooms & Laundries: common questions.

Can you do the laundry while you do the bathroom?
Yes, and it is the cheapest time to do it: the trades, the skip and the site setup are already there. A combined bathroom-and-laundry project usually saves 10 to 15 percent over doing them a year apart.
How long does a powder room or laundry take?
Usually 1 to 2 weeks on site depending on whether the layout changes. Like every wet area we touch, the waterproofing is certified, so even the smallest room comes with its paperwork.
