Powder Room Renovations Sydney
The smallest room in the house, where every millimetre of the setout shows. Fixture placement and tile setout carry the whole result.
A powder room is a small bathroom — typically 1.5–3 square metres — with a toilet and a hand basin and usually nothing else. Sometimes called a "half bath" or "guest WC", it is the smallest wet area in the house, and normally sits on the ground floor near the living areas so guests never need to enter a bedroom-adjacent bathroom.
What every one of our renovations covers.
This is the standard scope across our packages. Fittings and tile coverage change between tiers — the work below does not.
- Planning and design
- Demolition — floor protection, disconnection and removal of existing fittings, floor and wall tiles including old cement bedding, and complete off-site rubbish removal
- Electrical — safe disconnection, replacement power points and light switch
- Plumbing — safe disconnection and installation of new fittings
- Render or re-sheet walls
- Waterproofing to AS 3740 — primer plus two coats, certificate included
- Tiling — new screed to create falls to drains, all glues, tile trims, grouts and silicone
- Final clean before handover
Adam was a pleasure to work with. He offered great advice and was very easy to communicate with. Very happy with the work he did and would definitely hire again.

Frequently asked questions about powder room renovations
What is the smallest a powder room can be?
Practically, around 0.8 m wide by 1.5 m deep — enough for a basin, a WC and room for the door to open. Any tighter and the room starts to feel cramped and can struggle to meet the minimum clearances around fixtures.
Do powder rooms really need waterproofing?
Yes. Under AS 3740-2021, any room with a floor waste and a water-supply fixture is a wet area, so the floor needs a compliant, certified waterproof membrane. The scope is smaller than a full bathroom — no shower walls, no hob — but the floor is not optional.
Can a small bathroom renovation like a powder room be done in less than a week?
A refresh — the same fixtures replaced like-for-like, new paint, new fittings — can be done in three to five working days. A full renovation that needs strip-out and re-waterproofing needs the membrane to cure before tiling, which puts the realistic minimum at around seven working days.
Can a powder room add value to my home?
A well-designed, well-finished powder room is one of the strongest per-dollar value adds in a Sydney home, particularly if the property doesn't already have a downstairs WC. It gives guests somewhere to go without walking through a bedroom-adjacent bathroom, and adds a design moment to the public part of the house.
