Do you need a Bathroom Renovation?
Renovating a bathroom is the most complex renovation of all rooms. Considering the size, it may look like the smallest. The reason why it’s the most complex is because it involves the most trades to get it done. Communication and coordination with an experienced team is key to renovating a bathroom successfully. It involves coordinating and communicating with a number of suppliers, demolition team, electrician, plumber, waterproofing, tilers and plasterers. Bathroom renovations do not have to be complicated if you are working with a trusted and reliable bathroom renovation company in Sydney.

Called this company while my Mum was in hospital after suffering a fall at home in order to make bathroom modifications suitable for an elderly person. I have to say from the get go they genuinely cared and wanted to help. I have never dealt with a more professional, compassionate and caring company like Bathroom Blitz before. I was absolutely blown away by how quickly and stress free this whole experience was at a very difficult time for my family. To say we were happy with the work they did would be an absolute understatement. Not only did they make the bathroom look amazing they also installed grab rails not only in the bathroom but wherever else they were required around the house in order to make the house safe for Mum. Would highly recommend to anyone who needs a bathroom renovation especially if you are looking to make your bathroom safe for the elderly and have peace of mind for your loved ones. Thanks to the entire team especially to Amy for her help and understanding throughout the whole process. Well done !????????

18/05/2024Amee and the team did a fantastic job on the main bathroom in our apartment. They were very adaptable, as we could not finalise the design until after the demo. Their help with the final design lead to a great end result. We are very happy and would recommend them highly.

Bathroom Blitz was contracted to do, what I assumed, was a regulation “bath to shower conversion” for me. Mine is a unit in an old art deco building and the Bathroom Blitz team discovered some old, awkward plumbing which was revealed half-way through the job. Damon thoughtfully devised a solution to relocate the pipes and the renovation was executed perfectly. I can highly commend the diligence, professionalism and good nature of both Damon and Amee. They are punctual, experienced and dedicated to their work. I also consider that they charge very reasonably for the excellent quality of their work. Two other units in our building are now having Bathroom Blitz quote on their bathroom renovations. I would highly recommend Bathroom Blitz based on my experience. Richard Tier

18/06/2023Bathroom Blitz have done two bathrooms, a vanity and laundry in the last six months. The quality is excellent, they resolved all problems that arose and I would not hesitate to recommend them to anyone. The jobs were finished on time and to budget and we could not be happier with the final result.

Live in a unit and wondering – Do I need strata approval for my Bathroom Renovation?
If your bathroom renovation includes changes to waterproofing, it is classed as a ‘Major Renovation’ and will require strata approval.
Major works require a special resolution approval.
The three types of renovations
1. Cosmetic work
Cosmetic work doesn’t need approval.
Cosmetic work can’t change the outside of a property or affect things like structure and waterproofing.
You are allowed to:
- install or replace hooks, nails or screws (for hanging paintings or other items on walls)
- install or replace handrails
- paint the interior
- install or replace blinds and curtains
- fill minor holes and cracks in internal walls
- lay carpet
- install or replace built-in wardrobes.
This applies to all strata schemes. Your strata scheme can choose to add more types of work to the list of cosmetic work. The owners corporation can pass a by-law to do this.
2. Minor renovations
Minor renovations need approval, often this is from the strata committee.
Many schemes give the approval power to the strata committee. Otherwise. approval will require a vote at a general meeting.
Write to the strata manager or secretary and ask them to vote on your changes. You’ll need more than 50% of the votes cast in favour of the work at the meeting.
If the strata committee does not have the power to approve minor renovations, you’ll need to ask for approval at an annual general meeting (AGM) or an extraordinary general meeting (EGM).
Minor renovations include work to:
- renovate a kitchen, including flooring
- change recessed light fittings
- install or replace flooring, such as hardwood or tiles, as well as removing carpets to expose the flooring underneath
- change internal walls
- install or replace wiring, cabling, power, or access points
- install a rainwater tank
- install a clothesline
- install a reverse cycle air conditioner
- install double or triple glazed windows
- install a heat pump
- install ceiling insulation.
This applies to all strata schemes. Your owners corporation can choose to pass a by-law to add other types of work to the list of minor renovations.
Minor renovations can’t involve:
- structural changes or changes to a property’s outside appearance
- anything affecting waterproofing (for example, most bathroom renovations).
Before you get approval, you may also need to show your strata committee:
- plans of the work, including dates and times of when the work will be done
- an acoustic certificate to show sound insulation if you’re installing flooring
- qualifications and details of the tradespeople who will do the work.
3. Major renovations
Major renovations need a special resolution vote at an annual general meeting (AGM) or other general meeting. This means no more than 25% of the votes cast are against it, based on unit entitlement.
The strata committee can’t approve major renovations.
Major renovations include:
- structural changes (for example, moving a structural internal wall)
- waterproofing (for example bathrooms)
- changes affecting the outside appearance of the property, such as an access ramp
- work that needs approval under other laws (for example, council approval)
- changes to the ceiling or making a false ceiling.
Giving notice
If your work changes the structure of a lot (for example, removing a wall or installing ducted air conditioning), you must also give the owners corporation at least 14 days’ written notice before the work starts.
Your notice should describe how your renovations will change the property structure.
