How to Choose the Best Bathroom Renovation in Carnegie

A checklist before hiring any bathroom renovation in Carnegie, Melbourne.

  1. 1

    Verify their electrical licence is current at your state's electrical safety authority (e.g. Energy Safe Victoria, NSW Fair Trading).

  2. 2

    Confirm they carry public liability insurance of at least $5 million — ask to see the certificate.

  3. 3

    Get 2–3 written quotes for any job over $500. A written quote protects both parties and clarifies the full scope.

  4. 4

    Check their Google and TradeRefer ratings — look for consistent reviews mentioning punctuality, clean workmanship, and clear communication.

  5. 5

    Ask whether they'll provide a Certificate of Compliance (electrical safety certificate) on completion, as required by law in most states.

FAQs — Bathroom Renovation in Carnegie, Melbourne

How much does a bathroom renovation cost in Australia?

A budget bathroom renovation costs $8,000–$15,000. A mid-range renovation $15,000–$30,000. A high-end renovation with custom features can exceed $50,000. The biggest cost factors are tiling, waterproofing, fixtures, and labour. A full gut-and-replace is more expensive but avoids hidden issues.

How long does a bathroom renovation take?

A standard bathroom renovation takes 2–4 weeks for a single bathroom. This includes demolition (1–2 days), rough-in plumbing and electrical (2–3 days), waterproofing and curing time (3–5 days), tiling (2–4 days), and fit-off (1–2 days). Custom or heritage bathrooms take longer.

Do I need a building permit for a bathroom renovation?

Cosmetic bathroom renovations (new fixtures, retiling, repainting) generally don't require a permit. Moving plumbing, removing walls, or changing the room layout typically requires a building permit. Plumbing and electrical changes always require licensed contractors who issue compliance certificates.

Can I use my bathroom during renovation?

If you have one bathroom, this is the most challenging aspect of bathroom renovations. Most renovation contractors can phase work to keep the toilet operational. Discuss a timeline with your contractor — many can complete a bathroom in 2 weeks when well-coordinated.

What's the best tile size for a small bathroom?

Larger tiles (600x600mm+) can make a small bathroom feel bigger by reducing grout lines. However, large tiles require a very flat substrate and are harder to set around fixtures. Subway tiles (75x150mm or 100x200mm) are timeless and suit any size. Your tiler can advise on what works best for your space.
