Is it worth renovating small bathrooms and/or ensuite bathrooms?

Yes – a small bathroom makeover can be just as effective, if not more, than a renovation of a larger bathroom. Smart alterations can not only make your bathroom look more spacious and modern, but it can also make day-to-day actions like showering, bathing, and washing much easier.

Dave and his crew from Sawtell Bathrooms just completed the renovation of our main bathroom and downstairs laundry/bathroom area. It was a complicated job as one was above the other and we needed to be able to use one of the bathrooms during the work! They worked with us to minimize the mess and disruption to our lives and kept us informed as to progress. They did a wonderful job in a timely manner. It feels as if we have our spa!

We are very happy with our bathroom renovation. Dave provided support and good communication with ourselves, his team and subcontractors. The tiler did an excellent job especially ensuring the floor gradient was effective for drainage in our open shower/wet area. We recommend Sawtell Bathrooms highly

The team at Sawtell Bathrooms recently completed our bathroom renovation. Dave was great to deal with – easy reliable communication from the quotation, to selections and during the renovation itself. Dave helped us in creating a family bathroom, within our budget, that we could be proud of. His team of tradesmen were respectful and provided quality workmanship. Thanks guys 👍

Dave and his team renovated our bathroom, laundry and toilet. We appreciated: The clear and precise quote (that was honoured to the letter), excellent communication throughout the project, Dave’s responsiveness to new ideas and flexiblity on changes, the workers (Cameron, Dave2, apprentice, Luke) were polite and friendly, and there was a thorough cleanup when done. We’re very happy with the outcome – we love the new bathroom and toilet – and overall, it was a pleasure to have them do the work.

A neighbour recommended Dave to me when I talked about doing our bathroom renovation myself. After looking at his new bathroom, I contacted Dave and discussed the renovation with him. He gave me a quotation and convinced me that he could do the work within our timeframe and at a reasonable price. And he was true to his word. The new bathroom was finished within the agreed timeframe and quotation and is better than we had envisaged. Dave and his crew are very good at what they do and I can honestly recommend him to anyone wanting to renovate their bathroom.

Dave and the team were outstanding on our recent bathroom and toilet renovation. From the first meeting where Dave provided multiple options on our preferred bathroom layout, to the patience he showed with my unceasing questions regarding the renovation process, the entire experience was positive and rewarding. The Black Dog Plumbing team were communicative, respectful of our home and space, understanding of our needs and delivered on budget and on time. I cannot recommend them highly enough for anyone looking to install a quality and beautiful bathroom.

Great 👍Love our new bathroom. Dave was very professional and efficient. He took care of everything from start to finish so we didn’t have to coordinate anything. We chose our products and he sourced them. He was easy to communicate with and responded quickly when we asked questions. He made a couple of additional suggestions to improve the look and functionality of the bathroom, which were a great improvement.Highly recommend.

I spent a lot of time researching potential companies to renovate our laundry and bathroom and finally found the right company; Black Dog Plumbing. Not only did they do everything I asked, but the result was better than I could have ever imagined. Dave was a delight to deal with, recommended ways to make the process easier for us, had a really skilled team, and made sure we knew what was happening at all times. I would recommend Black Dog Plumbing to anyone that wanted to renovate their laundry and/or bathroom or for any plumbing needs you may have.

He provided a thoroughly personal and professional service along with critical advice to make the whole process seamless. Our bathroom was delivered on time and on budget and we couldn’t be happier with the results and value for money. He also went beyond the call of duty during recent floods to keep everything on track. We highly recommend Dave and Black Dog Plumbing.

We had a complete renovation of our bathroom, ensuite and laundry completed by Dave and his team from Black Dog Plumbing. We were impressed with the professionalism and quality of service we received from start to finish. The initial quote was thorough and was put together with recommended products which were were able to swap. Dave put a lot of effort into helping us come up with our final layouts which we love and guided us in all our decision-making. Dave seamlessly coordinated the whole process including contracts, insurance, ordering, delivery, waste removal, tilers, carpenters, tilers and waterproofing. We are thrilled with the final product which was completed on-time and without unforeseen costs.

Dave was easy to work with, we made a few adjustments to our original plan and delayed the start of our job and Dave was very understanding and accommodating. What was once the worst room in the house is now the best!! Will definitely recommend and have Dave complete our next bathroom renovation!!! Thanks Dave

We recently had our old bathroom re done by Dave and Black Dog Plumbing. I was a bit apprehensive as we wanted something a bit different, ie, keeping some of the interesting 1960s elements of the bathroom intact and renovating in a sympathetic style to the era. We already knew that Dave’s work was excellent, having had a partial reno to another area earlier in the year. I have to say that Dave was extremely open to our ideas as well as giving great advice regarding the fine details. All the work was completed in a professional and timely manner and Dave is very easy to communicate with. We recommend BDP and love our blue mid century looking bathroom! Helen and Rob

I can’t say enough good things about Dave. His knowledge, expertise, efficiency, delivery and finishes are all flawless. If you’re tired of mediocrity and disappointments, Dave is the one to provide excellence. After some appalling experiences with tradesmen the last 2 years since arriving to the area, I can say unequivocally that Dave is one of the good ones! We were so glad to find him, and highly recommend him. Feel free to contact me for a personal review. 👍🏼

Due to recent kitchen and laundry renovations, I required a local licensed plumber to install plumbing for second toilet in laundry, dishwasher & sink plumbing & installation, as well as install chimney & ducting for range-hood in our new kitchen.David quickly returned my call, and arrived to quote for job, then arranged a day to commence work.Work was completed on time, and to a high standard, very friendly and professional.I Have no hesitation in recommending David from Black Dog Plumbing, and will be engaging his services again in the near future.

Highly recommend Dave at Black Dog Plumbing! We woke up with no hot water and with 2 kids it was not ideal. He was prompt and friendly – he gave the cost upfront so there were no hidden charges. Before I knew it, the repair was done. Too easy!
