Penrith spreads out at the foot of the mountains, and its homes lean toward freestanding brick on decent blocks. Around the older parts near the river and the town centre you'll find post-war and 1970s homes with their original bathrooms still in place, often a single small room serving the whole family. Out toward Jordan Springs, Cranebrook and the newer estates the bathrooms are more recent but builder-grade, and owners want something that holds up better and actually suits them. The summers out here are genuinely hot, which makes good ventilation and a hard-wearing finish worth getting right. We've been renovating bathrooms across Western Sydney for 12 years, and we run one team that handles demolition, plumbing, waterproofing, electrical, tiling and the fit-off, so you're not chasing five separate contractors and lining up their calendars. We give you a fixed-price quote before we start, hold the price, and finish most bathrooms on site in around three weeks. We're a licensed NSW contractor, number 383725C, based in Liverpool and we cover Penrith and the wider Western Sydney area as part of our regular run. From the first measure to handover you deal with the same people, every time, and we plan every job for the heat out here.
We come out to your Penrith home, measure the room, check the existing plumbing and drainage, and talk through what you want. Then we give you a fixed-price quote that itemises every fixture, tile and trade. The number you see is the number you pay unless you change the scope.
Once you approve the quote, we lock in the layout and finishes so nothing changes mid-build. We strip the old bathroom out, sort the framing and floor falls, then waterproof to AS 3740 and let the membrane cure fully before any tiling begins.
Plumbing rough-in, electrical and tiling run in the right order because one crew controls the lot. No dead days waiting on a subbie from across town. The site stays clean and the bathroom gets back into service as quickly as the job allows.
We fit the vanity, toilet, tapware, screen, exhaust and accessories, test everything, and clean up. You get a final walk-through, your waterproofing certificate and compliance paperwork, and a bathroom ready to use the day we finish.
Most Penrith bathrooms land between $15,000 and $45,000. A cosmetic refresh, keeping the layout and updating tiles, vanity and tapware, starts from around $8,000. A full gut, where we strip back to the frame, move plumbing and rebuild from scratch, generally runs $25,000 to $45,000 depending on room size and the fixtures you choose. The older homes near the river sometimes need extra work once the original suite comes out, so we plan for what's behind the tiles. We give you a fixed-price quote up front that itemises every fixture and trade, so you know exactly what it costs before we begin and it won't move unless you change the scope.
Most bathrooms are finished on site in around three weeks. That covers strip-out, plumbing rough-in, waterproofing and its cure time, tiling, then the fit-off and final clean. The waterproofing membrane has to dry properly before tiling, so we never cut that short, but because one team runs the whole job the trades follow each other with no idle days waiting on a subcontractor. If it's the only bathroom in the house, we'll talk through timing so the family isn't left stranded. You get a realistic schedule with your quote and updates as the work progresses.
Yes. Waterproofing is where most bathroom problems begin, so we treat it as the critical stage. We waterproof to the NSW standard AS 3740, apply the membrane properly across floors, walls and the shower zone, and let it cure fully before any tile goes down. We also size the exhaust well, which matters in Penrith's hot summers. You get a waterproofing certificate at handover. For the freestanding homes that make up most of Penrith, internal bathroom renovations generally don't need council approval, but if your job involves moving walls or structural changes we'll tell you exactly what's needed and handle the paperwork.
We're a family-run business that's been renovating bathrooms across Western Sydney for 12 years, and we're a licensed NSW contractor, number 383725C. The key thing is one team does the whole job, from demolition through to the final silicone, so you're not coordinating a plumber, a tiler, an electrician and a waterproofer and hoping they show up in the right order. We quote a fixed price, hold it, and finish most bathrooms in around three weeks. We're based in Liverpool and cover Penrith as part of our regular run, so booking in, getting to site and following up afterwards is straightforward. You deal with the same people start to finish.
