Coogee, located adjacent to Perth's beautiful coastline, is known for its collection of premium homes and upscale residential properties. This Coogee transformation project focused on comprehensive tiling work across the kitchen, bathroom, and balcony areas, demonstrating how professional tiling alone can dramatically transform the entire character and atmosphere of a home.
The homeowners came to us with a vision to refresh their home's aesthetic through quality tiling work. Through our detailed estimate process, we identified the scope of work needed: demolition and preparation, plumbing updates, cabinetry installation, and comprehensive tiling across multiple areas. The estimated cost range of $15K–$28K reflects the extensive tiling work, which was the primary focus of this renovation. The tiling costs shown are for labour only—tiles and materials are not included in this estimate.
What makes this project particularly noteworthy is how the professional tiling work transformed the entire home's atmosphere. Even without major structural changes, the quality tiling in the kitchen splashback, bathroom walls and floors, and balcony surfaces created a cohesive, modern aesthetic that completely changed the feel of the property. Each phase was executed with professional expertise, with special attention to the tiling work that serves as both functional surfaces and design features. We'll walk you through each stage of the process, showing you exactly what happened, when it happened, and how the costs were allocated.
Demo
1–2 days
The demolition phase began with careful removal of all existing fixtures across the kitchen, bathroom, and balcony areas. The renovator's team systematically stripped out outdated plumbing connections and prepared surfaces for the new tiling work. This process exposed the underlying structures, allowing for thorough inspection to identify any hidden issues. All materials were disposed of responsibly.
Plumbing
2–3 days
The plumbing stage involved installing new water supply lines and drainage systems for the kitchen and bathroom areas. The renovator repositioned plumbing connections to accommodate the new layout, ensuring optimal placement for all fixtures. All pipes were properly secured and tested for leaks. The plumbing work was completed with precision, ensuring proper water pressure and efficient drainage.
Cabinetry
2–3 days
The cabinetry installation transformed the kitchen with custom cabinets designed to maximize storage and functionality. The renovator installed both base and overhead cabinets with precision, ensuring proper leveling and secure attachment to walls. The cabinetry features modern finishes and contemporary handles, creating a cohesive and functional kitchen layout. Soft-close hardware was integrated throughout, providing a premium feel and reducing wear on the cabinetry.
Tiling
8–12 days
The tiling stage was the centerpiece of this transformation, covering the kitchen splashback, bathroom walls and floors, and balcony surfaces. The renovator installed tiles with meticulous attention to spacing, alignment, and leveling. Each tile was carefully positioned using proper tile adhesive, ensuring consistent grout lines and perfect alignment around corners and fixtures. The professional tiling work created a stunning, seamless finish that dramatically transformed the entire home's atmosphere. After installation, the renovator grouted the joints and sealed all edges to ensure durability and easy maintenance. The tiling work serves as both a functional surface and a design feature, proving that quality tiling alone can completely change the character and feel of a home.
