Melton Bathroom Renovations
Imagine stepping into your bathroom that belongs just to you and feels fully comfortable, with a walk-in shower, plenty of storage and not a single cracked tile. At Melton Bathroom Renovations, we deliver these transformations with our full bathroom renovation services for residential and commercial properties all across Melton, Vic. Our team services homes anywhere within an hour's drive of Melton, including surrounding suburbs like Kurunjang and Brookfield. We strip back your old room and start demolition to remove your old fixtures and vanities. Then, from the frame, we rebuild it step by step with fresh waterproofing, complete plumbing, tiling that's customised to your style and a layout that suits the way you live. If your bathroom hasn't been renovated in over 20 years, it's a good time to get it checked out. We'll help you move from an older, worn bathroom into a modern bathroom that is cosy and inviting. We take care of the entire process from start to finish, so you get a bathroom that is practical and built to last for decades.
What Four Decades Does to a Bathroom
Bathrooms tend to take a lot more wear than any other room. That's because of a combination of daily use and high moisture exposure, which can stain your space. A lot of homes that are still standing in Melton were built around the 1980s, so they're over 40 years old, and the wear starts adding up. Old waterproofing breaks down, your grout can crumble, and copper pipes can corrode within your walls. You may notice that tiles can start to sound hollow as well, because the adhesive behind them has long since hardened and failed. A lot of these problems stay hidden out of sight. Our team knows what to look for, and the signs are obvious to us from the hundreds of jobs we've done in past years. Our renovation resets all of this and gets your bathroom ready to serve you for over two decades without issues.
Updating a 1970s or 1980s Bathroom
As Melton has grown from a satellite city in the '70s, the style of bathrooms has moved from small vanities and separate baths and showers to shower-and-bath combinations, modern tiles and more ergonomic layouts for smaller bathrooms. Some bathrooms we've found also have lower ceilings and slightly weird door swings. Our bathroom renovation contractors know what works and what doesn't, and change what doesn't for you. We make sure the layout is customised for your lifestyle and fits what you want, even if it's more of a vintage look. This usually means opening up the shower and adding more storage, as well as reviewing the layout to see if it needs to be changed. We make sure your home's structure stays strong, while you still get a lavish bathroom that feels brand new.
Safety First in Older Homes
Homes built before 1990 can contain asbestos in ceilings, wall sheeting or old tile adhesives. It's usually harmless when left alone, but when it's cut or broken, it becomes dangerous. That's why we always check older bathrooms before starting any demolition. If we suspect asbestos, we arrange testing and make sure it's safely removed by licensed professionals. Plumbing and electrical work also needs to be done by licensed trades, which we've already got in our team. Our bathroom renovation contractors in Melton, VIC don't skip these steps. You get peace of mind that your family and home are protected throughout the job, even from potentially toxic materials.
Hidden Damage Behind Old Tiles
When a bathroom is left alone for too long, damage can often grow in places that aren't as visible. Water escapes through your tiles and past old waterproofing that has expired, which leads to timber rot in your floors or wall frames. Over time, as water enters the timber, it softens and expands, which can cause structural integrity issues. Mould also spreads around, and your floor can start to sag. You might notice a musty smell, bubbling paint or even a soft spot near the shower. By then, the repair often costs way more than an earlier renovation would have. Getting our team to look at your bathroom sooner is a wise choice if you're noticing any signs of damage.
The Upside of Starting Fresh
If you're finding persistent problems coming back on a consistent basis, even after you've patched an old bathroom bit by bit, it's likely that there are multiple issues occurring in your bathroom at the same time. A complete bathroom renovation lets us inspect and fix everything, from your pipes and waterproofing to your tiles and fixtures. You get one clear price and a completely finished room that you don't have to lift a finger to manage or work on. Instead of years of small repairs, a full bathroom remodel is the way to go. As well as that, you get modern fixtures that use less water and are easier to clean, along with better lighting that keeps the space bright and visible every day, so it's safe to use. Not only that, but a fresh bathroom is known to be one of the biggest return-on-investment upgrades for home resale, if you're ever looking to put your home up on Melton's listings.

Layout Changes That Make More of Your Space
A complete renovation allows you to rethink the layout of your bathroom and how it works. Small changes to where things are located can make a cramped room feel twice as big. We offer different designs and ideas that your bathroom could use. Some require plumbing changes, whilst others simply use your space more cleverly. Our team will discuss with you which options suit your room and understand what your budget is. Here are some of the layout changes we've done for recent Melton homes in the past two years.
Swapping the Bath for a Walk-In Shower
If you don't really use your bathtub, a walk-in shower can create a spacious setting that is easy to step into. Cleaning also gets quicker every week.
Adding a Second Basin
A double vanity instead of a single one allows two people to get ready at the same time. This is well suited to large families that get the morning rush.
Moving the Toilet Out of View
Moving your toilet behind your wall or into a corner can create a more efficient use of space. You free up more space in your bathroom that can be used for a range of things.
Going Wall-Hung
If you'd like more floor space and better ventilation throughout your space, wall-hung vanities and toilets can suit you well. The room looks bigger, and it's also much easier to mop. Not to mention, there's more floor surface area that air can flow over and contact, allowing quicker drying.

Small or cosmetic updates range on the lower end, while high-end renovations with premium fittings, custom cabinetry, and layout changes cost more. A full basic bathroom upgrade generally starts at $25,000.
How long does a bathroom renovation take?

Complex renovations that involve structural changes, plumbing relocation, or custom fixtures may take additional time.
Do I need council approval to renovate my bathroom?

Can I stay in my home during a bathroom renovation?
Yes, many homeowners stay in their homes during a bathroom renovation. However, the bathroom being renovated will be unusable for part of the project, so access to another bathroom is usually necessary. Your renovation team will also take steps to minimise dust and disruption.
