How it works.

• You call or use the quote form and tell us your suburb and what you want done.
• The job goes to a local bathroom renovation business that can price it.
• That business quotes you directly and is responsible for its own licence, insurance and workmanship.
• We don't charge you for the enquiry. Businesses we refer work to may pay us a referral fee.

• Builder registration and contract. Domestic building work over $10,000 generally needs a written major domestic building contract with a registered builder. Check the builder on the VBA public register before work starts. The builder name on the contract, the registration and the insurance certificate should match.
• Domestic Building Insurance. For work over $16,000, get the Domestic Building Insurance certificate for your exact property before you pay any money.
• Deposit. The legal deposit maximum is 10 percent below a $20,000 contract price and 5 percent at $20,000 or more.
• Waterproofing. Ask for the AS 3740 waterproofing certificate for the wet area, issued by the registered practitioner who applied the membrane.
• Plumbing. A licensed plumber must issue and lodge a Compliance Certificate with the VBA for regulated plumbing work valued over $750.
• Electrical. Get the Certificate of Electrical Safety from the electrician covering the bathroom circuits.
• Permit. Most like-for-like bathroom renovations need no building permit. Work that touches structure, such as removing or altering a load-bearing wall, does.
