Services in Brighton 3186
In Brighton we renovate bathrooms, kitchens and laundries, and build new homes on existing blocks.
Full bathroom and ensuite renovations for established homes near the bay: strip-out, repairs behind the walls, waterproofing to the current standard, tiling and fit-out, with plumbing and electrical by licensed trades.
Bathroom renovationsNew kitchens planned around how you cook and store things: layout, cabinetry, benchtops, splashbacks and appliances, installed in the right order so you’re without a kitchen for as short a time as possible.
Kitchen renovationsLaundries with more bench space and storage, from a full room to a laundry in a cupboard, with the wet areas waterproofed before tiling.
Laundry renovationsInterior and exterior painting for established homes near the bay, with the surfaces patched, sanded and primed first. Under a heritage overlay, painting a surface that hasn’t been painted before can need a planning permit, so we check first.
Interior and exterior paintingNew Class 1 homes and villa units built from the slab to handover, plus Class 10a garages, carports and sheds. New homes are built all-electric from 2027, and we plan for that from the start.
New homesOversight of your building project, trade coordination and photo reports, so you know where the job stands without being on site.
Building supervisionTownhouses and dual occupancy on one block, with fire-separated walls between homes. Two or more homes usually need a planning permit from Bayside City Council first.

Brighton
The Dendy Street bathing boxes are covered by a heritage overlay that restricts changes. Four Sandringham line stations serve the suburb: Gardenvale, North Brighton, Middle Brighton and Brighton Beach.
Beach Road and the Bay Trail run along the coast. Homes near the foreshore can be affected by coastal or other overlays.
