Onehunga is one of Auckland's oldest suburbs, and the housing stock shows it. A lot of what we work on here was built before 1940: villas, bungalows and workers' cottages, most with a bathroom that was either squeezed into an existing room or tacked on later. Those homes are worth renovating properly, but they rarely behave like a new build once you open the floor up.
What we look for before quoting an Onehunga bathroom:
This is normal for housing of this age, and it's all workable. What causes trouble is finding it after the quote rather than before, so we look first and price second. You can see the approach in our Onehunga Mall project above, and across the full gallery.
Parts of Onehunga sit under character protections in the Auckland Unitary Plan. Interior bathroom work is rarely affected, but if your project touches the exterior or the roofline, it's worth checking your property's zoning early. We'll flag it at the site visit if it looks relevant.
We come to you in Onehunga, measure up, look at the state of the floor and framing, and talk through what you actually want.
A clear, line-by-line quote, usually within one business day. No vague allowances and no hidden extras.
Strip-out, framing repairs, certified waterproofing, tiling, plumbing and fit-off. One team, one project manager, regular updates.
Full clean, final walk-through, and your 2-year workmanship guarantee in writing.
Often not. Replacing fittings in the same positions is usually treated as maintenance. Once you move plumbing, take out a wall, or add a new sanitary fixture, consent typically comes into it. We'll tell you which side of the line your job sits on at the site visit, and we handle the council process when it's needed. There's more in our guide to bathroom renovation consent in NZ.
Most bathrooms take roughly 2 to 4 weeks on site. Older homes around here can sit at the longer end if the floor or framing needs repair once we open up. You get a realistic timeline with the quote, and we tell you early if anything shifts. Our guide on how long a bathroom renovation takes breaks it down stage by stage.
Every bathroom is different, so we quote per project after a visit rather than guessing. For a ballpark first, try our 60-second cost estimator, or read what actually drives bathroom renovation cost in Auckland.
Sometimes, and we'd rather look first. We check the floor and framing before quoting the finish, and our quotes are itemised rather than a single lump sum. If the scope genuinely changes once the wall is open, you hear it from us straight away and in writing.
