Bathrooms Designed for Sutherland Shire Homes

A well-designed bathroom should make everyday routines easier, use the available space effectively and provide enough storage to keep the room uncluttered.

Your current bathroom may have an awkward layout, insufficient storage, ageing fittings or poor lighting. There may be unused corners, limited benchtop space or a shower and vanity arrangement that makes the room feel smaller than it needs to be.

Our designers assess the whole room and help you identify which changes will deliver the greatest practical and visual improvement.

Our custom bathroom renovation and remodelling services can include:

  • Custom bathroom vanities and cabinetry
  • Wall-mounted and freestanding vanities
  • Mirrored cabinets and concealed storage
  • Walk-in showers and updated layouts
  • Bath, shower and toilet positioning
  • Stone and solid-surface vanity tops
  • Feature tiling and splashbacks
  • Integrated lighting and mirrors
  • Quality tapware, fittings and hardware
  • Storage solutions for compact bathrooms

Each bathroom is planned around the dimensions of your room, the needs of your household and the look you want to achieve.

Bathroom Makeover, Remodel or Full Renovation?

Not every bathroom requires the same level of work. Cummins Joinery offers flexible renovation options depending on the condition of the room, the effectiveness of the existing layout and your project goals.

Bathroom Makeovers

A bathroom makeover may be suitable when the existing layout works but the vanity, fittings, tiles or finishes have become dated.

Your bathroom makeover could include:

  • A new custom vanity
  • Additional bathroom storage
  • A new vanity top or basin
  • Replacement tapware and fittings
  • Updated mirrors and lighting
  • New tiles or splashbacks
  • Fresh paint and finishing details

Retaining the general layout may reduce the amount of plumbing, waterproofing and structural work required while still giving the bathroom a significant update.

Bathroom Remodels

A bathroom remodel usually involves more substantial changes to how the room is arranged and used.

This might include replacing a bath with a walk-in shower, relocating the vanity, improving access, creating additional storage or redesigning the room to make better use of a compact floor plan.

If you are considering a bathroom remodel in the Sutherland Shire, our team can assess the existing room and identify opportunities to improve movement, storage, lighting and everyday functionality.

Full Bathroom Renovations

A complete bathroom renovation gives you the opportunity to rethink the entire space, including the layout, plumbing, waterproofing, cabinetry, fixtures and finishes.

A full bathroom renovation may involve:

  • Removing the existing bathroom
  • Changing the room layout
  • Relocating plumbing and electrical services
  • Installing a walk-in or frameless shower
  • Adding, removing or repositioning a bath
  • Building custom vanities and storage
  • Completing waterproofing and tiling
  • Installing new lighting, mirrors and ventilation
  • Coordinating all required licensed trades

Cummins Joinery can manage the complete bathroom remodel from design and demolition through to custom joinery, trade coordination and final installation.

Custom Bathroom Vanities and Storage

The vanity is often the central feature of a bathroom, but it also needs to provide practical storage in a room where space can be limited.

Rather than selecting a standard vanity and trying to make it fit, Cummins Joinery designs bathroom cabinetry specifically for your room.

Your custom vanity can be tailored to suit:

  • The width and depth available
  • Your preferred basin configuration
  • Wall-mounted or floor-mounted installation
  • Drawers, cupboards or open shelving
  • Plumbing positions
  • Power points and appliance storage
  • Stone or solid-surface vanity tops
  • Your chosen cabinetry style and finish

We can also design mirrored cabinets, tall storage units, recessed cabinetry and other joinery that uses otherwise overlooked areas of the room.

Our custom bathroom joinery is manufactured locally in our Sydney workshop using quality materials, finishes and hardware from trusted suppliers.

Bathroom Design That Balances Style and Function

You do not need to have a completed bathroom design before contacting us.

Our in-house renovation design service can help you develop the layout, select materials and work through the practical details that affect how the finished bathroom will perform.

During the design process, we can consider:

  • Who will use the bathroom
  • The existing layout and available space
  • Shower, bath, vanity and toilet positioning
  • Storage requirements
  • Accessibility and ease of movement
  • Lighting and ventilation
  • Cabinetry, benchtop and tile selections
  • Tapware, fittings and hardware
  • Cleaning and ongoing maintenance
  • Your priorities and available budget

Detailed planning at the beginning of the project helps reduce compromises during construction and ensures the cabinetry, plumbing, lighting and finishes work together.

Before finalising your plans, read our guide to the bathroom design mistakes Sydney homeowners commonly regret.

A Fully Managed Bathroom Renovation

A bathroom renovation involves several specialised trades that must complete their work in the correct order.

Demolition, plumbing, electrical work, waterproofing, tiling, cabinetry and finishing all need to be carefully coordinated. Delays or mistakes during one stage can affect the remainder of the project.

Cummins Joinery provides an end-to-end bathroom renovation service, giving you one experienced team to oversee the project from the initial consultation through to completion.

1. Consultation and Site Assessment

We begin by discussing your current bathroom, what you want to improve, your preferred style and your approximate renovation budget.

Our team assesses and measures the room, identifies any obvious constraints and discusses whether the existing layout should be retained or reconsidered.

2. Bathroom Design and Selections

We develop the proposed layout and guide you through cabinetry, vanity tops, tiles, hardware, fittings and storage options.

You can also visit our Peakhurst showroom to view bathroom joinery, surfaces, finishes and hardware in person.

3. Custom Joinery Manufacturing

Once the design and selections are approved, your custom bathroom vanity and cabinetry are manufactured in our Sydney workshop.

Local manufacturing gives our team greater oversight of the fit, finish and quality of your bathroom joinery.

4. Construction and Trade Coordination

Our team coordinates the required licensed trades, which may include plumbers, electricians, waterproofers, tilers and plasterers.

We manage the sequence of work and maintain communication throughout the renovation so you are not left organising each contractor separately.

5. Joinery Installation and Completion

Your custom vanity and cabinetry are installed, followed by the remaining fittings and finishing work required to complete the bathroom.

We inspect the completed project and make sure the room is ready for everyday use.

Licensed Waterproofing and Trade Coordination

Waterproofing is one of the most important stages of any bathroom renovation.

Cummins Joinery coordinates waterproofing and other regulated work through appropriately licensed trades. This helps ensure that the bathroom is completed correctly and that each stage is ready before the following work begins.

Depending on the scope of your bathroom remodel, we can coordinate:

  • Demolition and preparation
  • Plumbing and drainage
  • Electrical work and lighting
  • Waterproofing
  • Wall and floor tiling
  • Plastering and painting
  • Shower screens and mirrors
  • Custom cabinetry installation
  • Tapware and fixture installation

Having these elements managed as one project helps create a more consistent result and a simpler renovation experience.

Bathroom Renovations for Every Stage of Life

A bathroom remodel should account for how the room will be used now and how your needs may change over time.

Family Bathrooms

Family bathrooms need durable materials, practical storage and layouts that can handle busy mornings and evening routines.

We can incorporate wide vanities, double basins, deep drawers, mirrored storage and easy-to-clean surfaces to create a room that works for the entire household.

Ensuite Renovations

An ensuite often has a smaller footprint, making careful layout planning especially important.

Custom vanities, recessed storage, wall-mounted cabinetry and considered shower placement can help the room feel more spacious without sacrificing functionality.

Compact Bathrooms

Small bathroom renovations benefit from joinery designed around the exact dimensions of the room.

We can explore slimline vanities, mirrored cabinets, concealed storage and layout changes that free up floor space and reduce visual clutter.

Accessible and Future-Focused Bathrooms

When appropriate, bathroom designs can also consider improved access, safer movement and features that support long-term use of the home.

This may include wider circulation areas, step-free showers, thoughtfully positioned fixtures and additional support within walls for future accessibility fittings.

Renovating More Than One Room?

Many homeowners choose to renovate a bathroom alongside a kitchen, laundry or second bathroom.

Planning related spaces together can help create consistent cabinetry and finishes across the home. It may also provide opportunities to coordinate design decisions, manufacturing and trade scheduling more efficiently.

We coordinate all licensed trades, including plumbing, electrical, tiling and plastering – so you don’t have to juggle contractors.

Frequently Asked Questions

Do you manage the complete bathroom renovation?

Yes. Cummins Joinery can manage the process from design and custom joinery through to construction, installation and completion.

We can coordinate the licensed plumbers, electricians, waterproofers, tilers and other trades required for a full bathroom renovation.

Can we retain the existing bathroom layout?

Yes. Keeping the existing plumbing and general layout may be a practical option when the room already functions well.

We will assess whether retaining the layout provides the best balance of cost and functionality or whether selected changes could produce a significantly better result.

Do you build custom bathroom vanities?

Yes. Our bathroom vanities and cabinetry are made to measure in our Sydney workshop.

We can tailor the size, layout, storage, finish, vanity top and basin configuration to suit your bathroom.

Can you remodel a small bathroom or ensuite?

Yes. Custom joinery can be particularly valuable in small bathrooms because the vanity and storage can be designed around the exact available space.

We can also assess whether changes to the shower, doorway, vanity or fixture positions could improve movement and make the room feel more spacious.

Can you renovate more than one bathroom?

Yes. We can plan and deliver renovations for a main bathroom, ensuite, powder room or multiple wet areas as part of the same broader project.

Planning the rooms together can help create consistent materials and finishes throughout your home.

How much does a bathroom renovation cost?

The cost depends on the bathroom size, existing condition, proposed layout, tiles, fittings, custom cabinetry and the extent of plumbing, electrical and construction work required.

Read our detailed guide to how much a bathroom renovation costs in Sydney, or contact our team for a quote based on your property and proposed scope.

How long does a bathroom renovation take?

The timeframe will depend on the size and complexity of the bathroom, the amount of structural or plumbing work required, material availability and the scope of the custom joinery.

Once the design and project scope are established, our team can explain the expected stages and provide a clearer renovation schedule.

Who completes the waterproofing?

Bathroom waterproofing is completed by an appropriately licensed trade as part of the coordinated renovation process.

Our team manages the sequence of waterproofing, tiling, joinery and fixture installation so each stage is completed in the correct order.

What is the difference between a bathroom renovation and a bathroom remodel?

The terms are often used interchangeably.

A bathroom renovation may involve replacing the vanity, fixtures, tiles and finishes while retaining much of the existing layout.

A bathroom remodel generally involves more substantial changes, such as relocating plumbing, changing the shower or bath configuration, improving access or redesigning the entire floor plan.

Cummins Joinery can assist with anything from a targeted bathroom makeover to a complete bathroom remodel.
