Kensington's Trusted Bathroom Builders
At Amica Construction, we've been renovating bathrooms across Melbourne for years. As a family-owned business based in Coburg North, we bring the same care and attention to every Kensington project - from compact ensuite refreshes to complete main bathroom overhauls.
Kensington is rich in Victorian and Edwardian terrace houses, along with converted warehouse apartments, inter-war cottages, and modern apartment complexes. The heritage housing stock means many bathrooms were retrofitted into spaces not originally designed for them, often in rear extensions or under stairways.
Our approach is straightforward: we provide a clear scope of work, a fixed quote with no hidden costs, and a realistic timeline. You know exactly what you're getting before we start.

Bathroom Renovations in Kensington 3031
Kensington is a compact inner-city suburb just 4km from Melbourne's CBD. It's known for its heritage streetscapes, the Kensington village along Bellair Street, Flemington Racecourse access, and a strong community feel. Its proximity to the city and multiple transport options make it highly desirable.
Heritage overlays are common, which can restrict changes to the building exterior and affect window placement for ventilation. Many terrace houses have bathrooms at the rear ground level with damp issues. Party walls between terraces complicate plumbing routes, and narrow lots limit access for tradespeople.
We also service neighbouring suburbs including Flemington, Ascot Vale, North Melbourne, Footscray, West Melbourne, Maribyrnong.
