Laundry Renovation in Brisbane, scoped properly

A laundry works harder than almost any room in the house, and it is usually the last to get attention. We rebuild laundries around the way households actually use them: sorting, washing, drying, folding, storing cleaning equipment and containing mess. That means durable finishes, proper ventilation, a bench that can take a basket, and storage that does not rely on a single overcrowded cupboard.

Many Brisbane laundries were originally a corner of the back verandah or a narrow room beside the kitchen. They often have inadequate waterproofing, poor drainage, no exhaust and a single power point. We bring the room up to a modern standard, coordinate plumbing and electrical, and finish it with materials that tolerate steam and detergent.

Whether you are combining a laundry with a mudroom, upgrading a family laundry in Sunnybank Hills or fitting out a compact apartment laundry in Spring Hill, we handle the full scope: strip-out, cabinetry, benchtop, tiling, plumbing, electrical, ventilation and fit-off.

What is included in our laundry renovation scope

Every project is different, but the following scope is the foundation we price and manage. Your written quote confirms exactly what applies to your room, including any exclusions and provisional allowances.

How we approach laundry renovation

Plan for the basket, not just the machine

Most laundry designs leave nowhere to put a basket or fold clothes. We plan a clear bench zone, a dedicated basket space and storage at working height so the room functions without clutter. If space allows, we incorporate a folding bench over the front-loader.

Control moisture at the source

Dryers and washing produce significant moisture. We duct exhaust outside, avoid recirculating fans, seal penetrations and use finishes that tolerate humidity. This protects cabinetry, paint and the adjoining rooms.

Make the plumbing accessible

Washing machine taps and hoses should be reachable without moving a machine through a tight gap. We set taps and power points to one side where possible, and use a recessed box for a clean finish.

Connect the laundry to daily life

A laundry that doubles as a mudroom needs durable flooring, hooks, a seat and a clear path from the back door. We help you prioritise storage and circulation so the room earns its space.

Laundry Renovation cost guide

Laundry costs are driven by cabinetry, benchtop material and whether plumbing or walls move. These bands assume a standard room with an existing window and door.

Our laundry renovation process

One project lead manages the sequence, checks each trade's work and keeps you informed. The programme is agreed before demolition so you know when to expect each stage.

Why homeowners choose our team

We are the builder. The team who quotes your project is accountable for the waterproofing, tiling, trade coordination and handover. That direct responsibility is why our scope can be specific and our programme realistic.

• QBCC licensed for kitchen, bathroom and laundry work, with Certificate III qualifications in tiling and waterproofing.
• AS 3740 waterproofing with flood testing and a compliance certificate.
• Externally ducted ventilation and moisture-aware detailing for Brisbane's climate.
• Written variations, agreed before the work proceeds.
• A formal handover with testing, care instructions and documentation.

If you are comparing quotes, read our guide to choosing a bathroom contractor and our contractor standards so you know what to ask.

We work across Greater Brisbane, including the northside, southside, eastside, westside and inner city. Local housing conditions affect the scope: older Queenslanders may need floor levelling and substrate repair, while apartments need body corporate approval and careful access planning.
