Family bathrooms that need to work harder
A family bathroom gets heavy use. A bath for young kids, a walk-in shower, a double vanity and plenty of storage are the common asks. Tough, easy-clean tiles and a good exhaust fan keep it looking new for longer.
Townhouses and newer units in Warriewood
Newer buildings still need strata approval for a bathroom renovation, by special resolution, because the work involves waterproofing. If a newer bathroom is already leaking, it may be a building defect; talk to your strata manager before anything is pulled out.
What a mid-range renovation gets you
Published Sydney figures put a mid-range bathroom renovation at $23,000 to $40,250, about $31,050 typical: new waterproofing and tiling, a quality vanity and tapware, a frameless screen and new lighting, on the existing layout.
