FAQ

Heritage Bathroom Renovation FAQs for Wooloowin

How do you renovate bathrooms in Queenslander homes?

Queenslander bathroom renovations require specialist knowledge of raised timber construction, floor loadings, ventilation under raised floors, access considerations, and heritage sensitivities. We use appropriate methods including proper waterproofing for timber floors and sympathetic design approaches.

Can you match the period style of my Wooloowin home?

Yes! We can source or recommend period-appropriate fixtures including clawfoot baths, traditional tapware, subway tiles, vintage-style vanities, and classic finishes. We balance period aesthetics with modern functionality and building compliance.

Do I need heritage approval for bathroom renovation?

It depends on your property. Some Wooloowin homes have heritage overlays requiring approval for certain changes, particularly external alterations or significant internal modifications. We assess your property and handle all necessary approvals.

Can you add modern features to character bathrooms?

Absolutely! We skillfully blend modern amenities like rainfall showers, heated towel rails, and underfloor heating with character features. The result is a bathroom that respects your home's heritage while providing contemporary comfort.
