Our renovation process (bath & shower remodel)
1) In‑home consult and brief
We measure, check service locations and discuss your goals: walk‑in shower, wall‑hung vanity, freestanding bath, niche shelves, heated towel rails, or a wet room layout.
2) Concept design and selections
- Layouts and elevations with storage planning (soft‑close drawers, handleless cabinets, mirrored shaving cabinets).
- Finish selections: tiles, vanities, benchtops, splashbacks, tapware, shower screens.
3) Detailed proposal and schedule
Transparent scope and timeline. We coordinate bathroom renovation contractors near me (Perth‑based), including licensed waterproofers, plumbers and sparkies.
4) Site preparation and demolition
Protection of adjacent areas, safe strip‑out, waste removal and site clean‑down. We check subfloor condition before rebuild.
5) Services rough‑in
Plumbing and electrical set‑outs to AS/NZS standards, including GPOs for LED mirror cabinets and under‑vanity lighting.
6) Waterproofing and tiling
Membrane installation to AS 3740, flood testing, then tiling (rectified or large‑format porcelain to reduce grout lines). We finish with quality caulking.
7) Fit‑off and glazing
Vanity install, benchtops, basins, mixers, WELS‑rated showers, toilets, and frameless or semi‑frameless shower screens.
8) Final QA and handover
We run through care instructions, warranties and maintenance. We can also align a kitchen or laundry renovation to maximise value while trades are on site.
Materials and finishes (WA‑ready)
From vanities to shower walls, we specify finishes chosen for moisture resistance, heat variation and easy care. Popular options in Perth bathrooms include:
- Porcelain/sintered stone vanity tops and slab‑look splashbacks.
- Moisture‑resistant cabinetry (MR board), two‑pack polyurethane or thermoformed vinyl wrap doors.
- Tiles: matte porcelain, terrazzo‑look, herringbone feature walls, or large‑format for minimal grout.
- Tapware: brushed nickel, matte black or chrome, with high WELS ratings.
- Shower screens: frameless with easy‑clean nano coating.
Porcelain/Sintered Stone vs Laminate (for vanities)
| Feature | Porcelain / Sintered Stone | High‑Pressure Laminate |
|---|---|---|
| Moisture resistance | Excellent; non‑porous and highly water‑resistant | Very good when sealed; avoid standing water at joins |
| Heat and UV stability | Outstanding heat resistance; colour‑stable | Good for everyday use; avoid direct high heat |
| Look and feel | Stone‑like slabs, ultra‑thin profiles, large formats | Wide decor range, including realistic stone/timber looks |
| Maintenance | Low; mild cleaners only | Low; non‑abrasive cleaners recommended |
| Budget | Mid to premium | Entry to mid |
Selecting for both bathrooms and kitchens? Match finishes across spaces: a shaker kitchen with brushed nickel hardware pairs beautifully with a wall‑hung vanity in the same palette, while handleless cabinets and soft‑close drawers suit modern ensuites and sculleries alike.
Layouts and styles that work
Smart bathroom layouts
- Compact family bath: back‑to‑wall bath, combined shower over bath, wall‑hung vanity to increase floor feel.
- Ensuite retreat: walk‑in shower with linear drain, undermount basin, LED strip lighting under mirror cabinets.

On‑trend styles
- Coastal WA: light oak veneers, white porcelain tops, soft sand‑tone tiles.
- Modern minimal: matte black tapware, large‑format stone‑look porcelain, handleless cabinetry.
- Classic: shaker‑style vanity doors, brushed nickel, subtle VJ panelling or wainscoting.
Coordinating a kitchen or laundry too? We can echo profiles and colours across your shaker kitchen, butler’s pantry or laundry renovation for a polished, whole‑home finish.
Perth bathroom renovation costs
Every space is unique, but typical 2025 Perth ranges are:
- Cosmetic refresh: $8,000–$18,000 (tapware, vanity, fresh tiling/paint; minimal layout changes).
- Standard bathroom reno: $18,000–$30,000 (new tiling, shower, vanity, toilet, waterproofing, screen).
- Mid‑range upgrade: $28,000–$45,000 (premium tiles, porcelain/sintered benchtops, custom cabinetry, lighting).
- Premium/ensuite or wet room: $45,000–$80,000+ (feature slabs, underfloor heating, bespoke glazing, complex layouts).
Planning a kitchen at the same time can improve trade efficiency and reduce overall cost per room. We’ll tailor a fixed‑scope proposal after your in‑home consult.
Tip: Always compare bathroom reno companies or bathroom remodeling services on scope detail, waterproofing compliance, product warranties and schedule realism — not price alone.
Real WA project examples
Case 1 — City Beach Ensuite Upgrade
Brief: Create a serene, low‑maintenance ensuite. We specified a wall‑hung vanity with soft‑close drawers, porcelain benchtop, walk‑in shower with linear drain and large‑format rectified tiles. Outcome: a brighter space with less grout and easier cleaning. Duration: four weeks including custom cabinetry manufacturing.
Case 2 — Fremantle Terrace Bathroom + Kitchen Refresh
Brief: Improve storage and flow in a narrow terrace home. We delivered a curbless shower, mirrored shaving cabinets and a shaker kitchen in matching finishes. Result: cohesive, heritage‑sensitive style; the combined project saved ten days of trade time versus separate works.

FAQ
How long does a bathroom renovation take in Perth?
In most Perth homes, a standard bathroom renovation typically takes 3–5 weeks from demolition to handover. Complex layouts, custom glass, or coordinating a kitchen or laundry at the same time can extend the schedule. We issue a detailed program before works begin.
What approvals do I need in WA for a bathroom renovation?
Cosmetic updates usually need no council approval, but structural changes, window alterations, or moving plumbing may require approvals and certifications. Waterproofing must comply with AS 3740 and plumbing/electrical must be carried out by licensed trades. We advise on documentation at the start.
How much does a small bathroom renovation cost in Perth?
A typical small bathroom renovation in Perth starts from around $18,000–$30,000 for a full update with waterproofing, tiling, new vanity, shower and toilet. Premium finishes, slab features or complex plumbing changes can increase costs. We provide a fixed‑scope quote after site measure.
Do you handle waterproofing and certification?
Yes. We coordinate licensed waterproofers who install membranes to AS 3740, conduct flood testing and provide compliance documentation. We also schedule licensed plumbers and electricians for all fit‑offs and certifications.
Can Joyce Kitchens coordinate kitchen, bathroom, laundry and wardrobes in one project?
Absolutely. Coordinating spaces together improves continuity of finishes, reduces downtime and can lower per‑room cost. We design and deliver custom cabinetry, benchtops and storage solutions across kitchens, bathrooms, laundries and wardrobes.
