WELS is Australia’s Water Efficiency Labelling Scheme. Higher star ratings mean lower water use for taps, showers and toilets.
IP (Ingress Protection) ratings indicate suitability of lights and power points near water. Bathrooms require specific IP levels depending on the zone.
Local note: Perth water can be mineral-rich, so choose quality finishes (PVD-coated tapware, marine-grade stainless) that resist pitting and are easy to maintain. For small bathrooms Perth apartments often feature, wall-hung vanities and large-format porcelain tiles help the room feel larger.

Materials and finishes that perform in WA
Vanity benchtops and doors
Popular choices include porcelain slab or sintered stone for superior heat and stain resistance, high-pressure laminate for value, and 2‑pack polyurethane or thermolaminate doors for a durable painted or profiled look. If you love a coastal or Hamptons style, a Shaker-profile door with light tones and brushed nickel hardware is timeless.
A man-made stone historically containing crystalline silica, used for benchtops. Note: Australia introduced a national prohibition on engineered stone containing crystalline silica from 1 July 2024. Ask us about compliant alternatives such as porcelain, solid surface and natural stone options.
Engineered stone vs laminate (vanity benchtops in WA)
| Factor | Engineered Stone Benchtop | Laminate Benchtop |
|---|---|---|
| Look and feel | Stone-like appearance, seamless look; waterfall edge possible in some profiles | Huge décor range (timber, stone, solid colours), modern square edges |
| Moisture/heat performance | Excellent stain and moisture resistance; heat resistance varies by brand | Good day-to-day performance; avoid high heat and standing water at joins |
| Maintenance | Low maintenance, non-porous; use pH-neutral cleaners | Low maintenance; gentle cleaners to preserve finish |
| Cost (indicative) | Premium | Budget to mid-range |
| Availability/regulation | Subject to Australia’s prohibition on engineered stone containing crystalline silica from 1 July 2024; consider porcelain/sintered alternatives | Widely available |
| Best for | High-end, contemporary bathrooms (use compliant alternatives) | Value-driven projects, rentals, family bathrooms |
We’ll guide you to compliant options and the right edge profiles, from sleek finger-pull doors to classic Shaker. For sinks, an under-mount basin keeps lines clean and maximises bench space.
Showers, screens and tiles
- Screens: Frameless shower screens visually expand small rooms; semi-frameless for value.
- Tiles: Porcelain floor tiles for durability; consider slip resistance and light colours to brighten rooms.
- Drainage: Linear channels or centre wastes; falls set during screeding and waterproofing to AS 3740.
Safety note: See the national guidance on engineered stone at Safe Work Australia.
