Yes. A bathroom renovation has three steps for us. First we come and talk it through, then give you a written quote. Next is the rough-in: the water and waste pipes go where your new shower, vanity and toilet will sit, before the walls are sheeted and tiled. Once the tiler has finished, we come back to fit off, connecting every fixture and testing it all.
Plenty of Currimundi homes are older, so the bathroom you're redoing may still have its original layout and pipes. Two decisions set most of the plumbing price, and both are best made before anything is pulled out: whether the layout changes, and which fixtures go in.
Keeping the toilet, shower and basin where they are now is the cheapest layout, because the drains stay put. Moving them means moving the drains too. On a concrete slab, that means cutting into the slab, laying new pipe and repairing it before the waterproofer and tiler start. It can be done, but it costs more, so ask for the price with and without the move before you decide.
The rough-in sets exactly where each pipe comes out of the wall or floor, so it's worth picking your fixtures first. A wall-hung toilet needs its cistern frame built into the wall. Wall-mounted basin taps need the pipes at the right height before the tiles go on. A freestanding bath needs its waste in the right spot in the floor. Changing your mind after tiling means pulling tiles off.
Even if the shower stays where it is, the tap body inside the wall usually gets replaced during a renovation. New tapware rarely fits an old valve, and the wall is only open once. We fit the new valve at rough-in, so the new handles go straight on at fit-off.
Full bathroom renovations and smaller updates, like a new vanity or toilet, with the rough-in and fit-off done by the same two of us.
Dripping taps, running toilets, new tapware and blocked basins. Ring us about the small jobs as well.
Worn-out systems replaced and faulty ones repaired. We walk you through the new system and its warranty before we go.
A wet spot on the floor outside the bathroom, or water showing up in the next room. We find out if it's a pipe before anything gets pulled up.

For a leaking tap, a running toilet or a blocked drain, ring 0413 291 781 or send the quote form and we'll give you a day and a time.
For a bathroom renovation, get in touch before anything is pulled out. We need to see the room as it is to price the rough-in, and it lets us book both stages around your builder and tiler rather than holding up their work.
Send the quote form with a photo of the bathroom as it is now, or ring 0413 291 781 during business hours. Leaks, taps and toilets are welcome too.
