04 Melbourne south-east

Bathroom plumbing,
done once.

Renovating a bathroom in Melbourne's south-east? I handle the plumbing side: roughing in, fit-out, waterproofing coordination. Work with your builder or straight with you, whichever suits the job.

01 The short version

What this
actually means.

Bathroom plumbing is the part of a renovation you cannot go back and fix cheaply. Once the waterproofing is on and the tiles are down, a waste in the wrong place or a fall that does not drain is a demolition job, not a callback. So the work that matters happens early, at rough-in, before anything is covered.

That means getting the set-out right against the actual fixtures you have chosen, coordinating with the waterproofer and the tiler so nobody is waiting on anybody, and being on site at the points where the sequence actually depends on plumbing. I will work into a builder's program or run the plumbing directly with you if you are managing the job yourself.

02 Scope

What you get,
and when to ring.

Included

What the plumbing scope covers

  • Rough-in against your chosen fixtures and set-out
  • Fit-off: tapware, mixers, shower sets, toilets, basins
  • Waste and floor-waste positioning and falls
  • Coordination with your waterproofer and tiler
  • Relocating existing wastes and water services
  • Full bathroom remodels, and laundries and kitchens alongside
When to call

Worth talking before you start if

  • You are moving the shower, bath or toilet from where it is now
  • You have chosen fixtures but nobody has checked the set-out against them
  • The bathroom is upstairs or over a habitable room
  • The existing waste falls are unknown or the floor is uneven
  • You are managing the trades yourself and need the sequence mapped out
03 Good questions

Questions I get
every week.

01 Do you do the whole renovation?
No. I do the plumbing, properly, and coordinate with the other trades. If you want a single builder carrying the whole job, you want a builder, and I am happy to work into their program.
02 When do you need to be involved?
Before demolition if possible, and certainly before the set-out is locked in. Fixture choices drive the rough-in, so the earlier those are settled the fewer compromises get made later.
03 Do you handle the waterproofing?
I coordinate with the waterproofer so the sequence works and nothing gets covered before it should. Waterproofing itself is its own licensed trade.
