Bathroom Renovations Gold Coast
“Renovating old homes is not about making them look new. It is about making new unnecessary.” – Ty McBride
Bathrooms are one of the most utilised spaces within any home. Despite this, when it comes to bathroom renovations Gold Coast homeowners will often hesitate. They may reason that only the family uses the bathroom, so does it really matter if it’s dark, cramped, dingy or terribly outdated?
While this kind of thinking is quite common, it’s actually flawed reasoning. After all, you’re using your bathroom every day, multiple times a day – why shouldn’t you be able to enjoy a more comfortable and user-friendly space?!
By investing in a bathroom renovation Gold Coast homeowners can:

Working on Bathroom Renovations Gold Coast
At Craftbuilt Kitchens, we love getting to work with the same clients on multiple projects, because it proves we’re achieving our goal of having happy customers. There’s nothing better than hearing from clients who were so happy with their renovated kitchen that they now want us to renovate their bathroom too.
One example was a bathroom renovation on the Gold Coast that turned a dark and sadly old-fashioned bathroom into a bright, warm and welcoming space.
For the bathroom design, the client wanted to use warm tones that would echo the design of their much-loved new kitchen. They also wanted to ensure the bathroom had plenty of storage and that the layout would make better use of the available space.
This was achieved with a custom-built vanity that utilised the space at the head of the new bathtub. A customised mirror maximises the reflection of natural light, while new downlights on separate switches allow the client to set the ambience of the room to suit their needs. The inclusion of an in-built shower niche and heated towel rail added to the functionality of the space, while the gorgeous floor-to-ceiling tiles helped to create a high-end feel.
What Are Some of the Biggest Design Trends for Bathroom Renos on the Gold Coast?
Some of the latest design innovations that we’re excited to use in our bathroom renovations include:
Custom Cabinetry
Custom-built cabinetry can be the ideal choice when renovating an existing bathroom. Custom cabinets allow you to maximise storage and can eliminate those annoying gaps between bathroom fixtures. With a great range of innovative storage solutions now available, custom cabinetry enables a bathroom renovation to achieve next-level functionality without compromising on style.
Floating Vanities
Not only do floating vanities look fantastic, but they can also help a smaller bathroom appear more spacious (by creating an uninterrupted view of the flooring). A floating vanity can also make it easier to keep your bathroom clean and sanitised since it’s easy to vacuum and mop the space underneath.
Large-Format Wall Tiles
Oversized wall tiles can help to turn even the most basic of bathrooms into a space that feels luxuriant. They look great when paired with natural stone or stone-look materials, and the minimal grout line makes them ideal for low-maintenance bathrooms.
Backlit Mirrors
Over three-quarters of homeowners will choose to upgrade their mirrors when renovating a bathroom. And many Gold Coast homeowners are now choosing to upgrade to a backlit design. A backlit mirror can add a touch of glamour to a bathroom design and is a practical choice for rooms with minimal natural light.
Innovative Bathtub Designs
Freestanding bathtubs are an amazing feature to include in a bathroom renovation – but they can also take up a lot of usable space. To overcome this obstacle, more homeowners are now choosing partially freestanding baths (which are installed flush with one wall and freestanding on the other 3 sides) or soaking tubs (which have increased depth but take up less space). These innovative design solutions are an ideal way for homeowners to maximise their use of available space without having to compromise on luxury.
Engineered Stone Benchtops
Engineered stone benchtops (such as Caesarstone) have become a very popular feature of bathroom renovations on the Gold Coast during the past few years. This is largely because engineered stone is an extremely durable material with a beautiful finish and an affordable price point. Engineered stone benchtops are now available in a wide range of colours, meaning they can be designed to suit almost any style of bathroom renovation.

Frequently Asked Questions About Bathroom Renovations Gold Coast
How much do bathroom renovations on the Gold Coast cost?
The 2018/2019 Housing Industry Association (HIA) Kitchens and Bathroom survey found that the median price for a bathroom renovation in Australia is around $19,500. However, material costs in the construction industry have increased post-COVID, which has had an impact on the average cost of a bathroom renovation.
Renovation costs can also vary significantly depending on a range of factors, including:
- The scope of work.
- The size of the bathroom (small ensuite vs spacious family bathroom).
- Whether or not the bathroom layout needs to change.
- What kind of fixtures and finishes you select.
For an accurate cost estimate of your proposed bathroom renovation on the Gold Coast, we recommend booking an appointment for a personalised in-home design consultation.
How long will a bathroom renovation take to complete?
The HIA Kitchens and Bathrooms survey (mentioned above) noted that bathroom renovations usually take around 16 days from start to finish. However, the same survey also showed that 1 in 4 renovations takes 26+ days to finish. In our experience, most bathroom renovations on the Gold Coast take between 2 and 8 weeks, depending on the size of the bathroom and the scope of work involved (e.g., are we just replacing a shower and some cabinetry or are we gutting the interior and fully redesigning the layout?).
Is it a good idea to change the existing bathroom layout during a renovation?
The answer to this question will largely depend on how happy you are with your existing bathroom layout. If your current bathroom design is functional and makes good use of the space, then it may be worth leaving things as they are.
However, if your bathroom is cramped, wastes valuable floor space and prevents you from including desired features (such as a new bathtub), then it may be worth considering a new layout. Structural changes (such as moving walls or lowering the floor) will typically increase the time and cost involved in the project. This is also true of any changes to the plumbing and electrical connections, as qualified trades will need to complete more extensive work.
How can I make sure my bathroom renovation stays within budget?
To keep your renovation costs in check, establish a clear budget from the outset and communicate this to your renovation team. Consider prioritising essential updates over luxurious additions and be open to alternative materials or fixtures that offer cost savings without compromising quality. It’s also a good idea to allow for a 10% buffer in your renovation budget, in case any unexpected issues arise (such as the discovery of water-damaged timbers or asbestos).
What should I consider when choosing bathroom fixtures and finishes?
Selecting your fixtures and finishes is all about balancing style with functionality and budget. Consider factors like durability, ease of maintenance and how well each element complements your overall design. Don’t forget to factor in long-term costs and trends to ensure your choices remain timeless and practical.
