Yes, in many cases you can — particularly if you have another working bathroom available elsewhere in the home. If the bathroom being renovated is your only bathroom, we will discuss this with you before work begins so you can plan the most suitable temporary arrangement.We also explain what to expect during the renovation, including access, water interruptions, noise and dust, so you can decide what will be most comfortable for your household. Where possible, we isolate the work area and coordinate the renovation to keep the rest of the home as practical and comfortable to use as possible.

No. At the quoting stage, you do not need to have every tile, tap, fixture or finish selected.During our site visit, we focus on understanding the scope of your renovation and what you would like to achieve. We then prepare your proposal using realistic allowances based on our builder range for selections that have not yet been made.These allowances provide a starting budget for items such as tiles, tapware, fixtures and finishes, allowing us to prepare your quote without requiring you to make every selection upfront.Once you decide to proceed with DEMK, we guide you through the selection process. You can choose products within the included allowances or select different or more premium options and pay the relevant price difference.This gives you the flexibility to personalise your home at your own pace, with guidance from our team throughout the selection journey.

The best option depends on how well your current bathroom layout works for the space and the way you use it.During the site visit, we assess the existing layout, plumbing locations, access, storage and overall functionality. If the current layout works well, keeping key plumbing fixtures in their existing positions can often help manage renovation costs.If there is an opportunity to improve the functionality of the space, we can explore alternative layouts with you and explain how any changes may affect the plumbing, construction requirements and budget. Our aim is to help you choose a layout that works well for your home, your priorities and the way you want to use the space.

We provide clear pricing and allowances upfront, so you understand the expected cost of your bathroom renovation before work begins.For existing homes, however, some conditions may only become visible once demolition starts, such as water damage, deteriorated plumbing, damaged substrates or structural issues. For this reason, it can be helpful to allow approximately 10–15% contingency within your overall budget.Bathroom renovation costs can generally start from around $20,000–$40,000+, depending on the size of the bathroom, existing conditions, layout changes and the fixtures, fittings and finishes you select.If additional work is identified, we explain what has been found, discuss the available options and confirm any cost implications with you before proceeding.
