Bathroom renovations

Managed bathroom renovations specialist

Bathrooms say a lot about their owners and their lifestyles, and it is the one room of the house that just about everyone sees. Bathrooms also live a tough life. Of all the areas in a home that need a makeover, it’s usually the bathroom that needs it first. 

Maybe you need a complete bathroom renovation and reconfiguration because of a growing or changing family. Do you need easy-access wet areas or a shower with handrails? Would you like to incorporate easy-clean, modern surfaces? Do you have a young family and need a bath? Do you have a family of teenagers that requires large bathroom cabinets for all their many lotions and potions as well as sufficient storage for medicines for all the family? Or is your bathroom simply just out of date?

But it’s only a small room …..

Bathroom renovations are the most complex of all home renovations due to the number of people involved and the planning and coordination required, and also because of the amount of interest Auckland council takes in them. However, when they are managed well – as ours always are – bathroom makeovers can be exciting and rewarding.

Great bathroom design is function, comfort and aesthetics

If your bathroom renovation plan focuses on looks and overlooks the function, then we can help. Inadequate planning and mid-project changes can add time and money to a renovation. So, we can work with you before the tradies jump in to create a comprehensive plan that includes a clear budget and a detailed design for the layout and fixtures. We can replace every element in your bathroom, from mirrors and lighting through to tiles, vanities, showers, and tubs. We can advise on the best materials and fixtures, then organise the suppliers as well as the tilers, waterproofers, plasterers, underfloor heating installers and plumbers. If we are to move walls or plumbing fixtures, we’ll ensure the new layout satisfies building codes.

Frequently asked questions

How can I make my small bathroom look bigger?
Even the tiniest bathroom can feel spacious with the right design choices. Light, neutral paint colours and carefully selected tiles will instantly open up the room. Natural light works wonders – if a window isn’t an option, consider a skylight or solar tube. Adding a large mirror or upgrading to brighter, layered lighting will also create the illusion of more space. Sleek design details like frameless shower glass, wall-mounted vanities or accessories, and cavity sliders help keep the room feeling uncluttered and airy.

Why do bathroom renovations cost so much?
Bathrooms are one of the most complex rooms in the home to renovate. They require a wide range of skilled trades – from plumbers and electricians to waterproofers, tilers, and builders – all working together in a small space. On top of this, quality waterproofing, ventilation, and structural work are essential to prevent costly issues down the line. And that’s before you even begin choosing fittings, fixtures, and finishes, which can quickly add to the budget depending on style and quality.
Do I need to provide my own tradespeople?
No need — we take care of everything for you. Because we project manage your renovation from start to finish, we coordinate all the trades required, from plumbers and electricians to tilers and painters. We work with a trusted network of qualified professionals we know deliver high-quality results, so you don’t have the stress of sourcing or managing them yourself.

Do I need to have a bathroom layout plan before starting?
Not at all. At X2 Interior Design & Construction Ltd, we guide you through the whole design process. Our in-house interior designer will talk with you about your wants and needs, then create a tailored floor plan that makes the best use of your space. We can also provide 3D drawings, so you’ll be able to visualise your new bathroom before work begins.
Will I need consent to renovate my bathroom?
Not always — it depends on the scope of work. Simple upgrades like replacing fittings don’t require consent, but changes to plumbing, drainage, or structural elements often do. At X2 Interior Design & Construction Ltd, we can guide you through the consent requirements and handle the process if it’s needed, so you know everything is compliant and stress-free.
