Altona'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 Altona project - from compact ensuite refreshes to complete main bathroom overhauls.

The housing mix includes classic 1950s-60s weatherboard beach cottages, 1970s brick homes, and a wave of modern townhouses and apartments. The older homes often have bathrooms that reflect their era - small, dark, and fitted with basic fixtures that are well past their use-by date.

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 Altona 3018

Altona is a bayside suburb in Melbourne's west, about 13km from the CBD. Known for its beach, pier, and relaxed coastal village vibe, it's increasingly popular with young families and professionals. Pier Street's cafes and shops give it a distinct character that sets it apart from other western suburbs.

Coastal proximity means bathrooms in Altona homes can be affected by salt air corrosion on fittings and fixtures. Older weatherboard homes often have inadequate waterproofing by current standards, and the sandy soil conditions can affect drainage systems.

We also service neighbouring suburbs including Altona North, Altona Meadows, Seaholme, Williamstown, Newport, Laverton.

Frequently Asked Questions

Common questions from Altona homeowners about bathroom renovations.

How long does a bathroom renovation take in Altona?
Most bathroom renovations in Altona take between 3 to 6 weeks depending on the scope. A straightforward update to fixtures and tiles can be completed faster, while a full gut-and-redesign with structural changes typically sits at the longer end. We provide a detailed timeline before work starts.
What does a bathroom renovation cost in Altona?
Costs vary based on size, materials, and scope. A basic refresh can start from around $15,000, while a full luxury renovation with premium fittings typically ranges from $30,000 to $55,000+. We provide a fixed-scope quote after the initial consultation so there are no surprises.
Do I need a permit for a bathroom renovation in Altona?
Most standard bathroom renovations don't require a planning permit from City of Hobsons Bay. However, if your project involves structural changes, additional plumbing lines, or altering the building footprint, a building permit may be needed. We handle all permit requirements as part of our service.
Can you renovate bathrooms in older Altona homes?
Yes. Coastal proximity means bathrooms in Altona homes can be affected by salt air corrosion on fittings and fixtures. Older weatherboard homes often have inadequate waterproofing by current standards, and the sandy soil conditions can affect drainage systems. Our team is experienced with all types of builds - we assess the existing structure, handle any necessary remediation, and bring everything up to current Australian Standards.
What is included in your bathroom renovation service?
Our full-service renovation covers design consultation, demolition, plumbing, electrical, waterproofing, tiling, cabinetry, fixture installation, painting, and final cleanup. We manage the entire project from start to finish so you deal with one team, not multiple subcontractors.
Do you offer a warranty on bathroom renovations?
Yes. All structural and waterproofing work carries a 6-year builder's warranty as required under Victorian domestic building regulations. Fixtures and fittings are covered by their respective manufacturer warranties. We stand behind our workmanship.
Can I use my bathroom during the renovation?
Typically no - once demolition starts, the bathroom is out of action until completion. If you only have one bathroom, we can discuss a staged approach or help you plan around the downtime.
How do I choose tiles and fixtures for my renovation?
We guide you through the selection process during the design phase. We work with trusted Melbourne suppliers and can arrange showroom visits. We also provide material recommendations based on your budget, style preference, and what works best for your bathroom's size and layout.
