If you are planning a bathroom renovation in Logan or Ipswich, the first question is almost always the same: what is this going to cost me? Prices vary widely depending on the size of the room, the condition of what is behind the walls, and the quality of fixtures you choose.
As QBCC-licensed builders based in Slacks Creek, HEW Projects has renovated bathrooms across Logan and Ipswich, from character homes in Sadliers Crossing to modern family homes in Springfield Lakes and Shailer Park. This guide breaks down the real 2026 numbers so you can budget with confidence.
For a complete, high-quality bathroom renovation in the Logan and Ipswich region, most homeowners should budget between $23,500 and $45,000. Where you land depends on the size of the bathroom, how much structural and plumbing work is required, and the finishes you select.
| Renovation level | Typical price range | Best for |
|---|---|---|
| Essential refresh | $18,000 – $24,000 | Cosmetic update, same layout, mid-range fixtures |
| Premium family bathroom | $24,000 – $35,000 | New layout, quality tiling, walk-in shower, custom vanity |
| Luxury / structural transformation | $35,000 – $45,000+ | Walls moved, ensuite added, premium stone and tapware |
These figures include a full strip-out, waterproofing to AS 3740 standards, tiling, fixtures, and all plumbing and electrical certification (Form 16). They are a planning guide, not a quote.
A simple like-for-like refresh, where the toilet, shower and vanity stay in the same position, is the most cost-effective option. The moment you move plumbing, costs rise because of the additional plumbing, structural and waterproofing work involved.
Many Ipswich character and Queenslander homes have timber sub-floors and uneven foundations that need leveling before tiling. Older Logan brick-and-tile homes can hide water damage or outdated wiring. A good builder assesses these up front so your fixed-price quote is accurate from day one.
Tapware, tiles, vanities and screens are where budgets stretch the most. Standard chrome and ceramic tiles sit at the affordable end; large-format porcelain, natural stone, frameless glass and PVD-coated brass move you toward the premium end.
Cutting corners on waterproofing is the single most expensive mistake in any renovation. Proper waterproofing exceeding AS 3740, plus Form 16 certification, protects your home and resale value, and is included in every HEW Projects fixed-price quote.
A standard transformation usually takes three to five weeks on site, depending on the scope of structural work and fixture availability. We provide a locked-in schedule before we start.
Most internal, non-structural renovations do not require council approval. If we are moving load-bearing walls, we manage the building approval process with Logan City Council or Ipswich City Council for you.
A well-designed bathroom is one of the highest-ROI renovations you can make, particularly in growth suburbs across Logan and Ipswich.
The only way to get a true cost for your renovation is a proper on-site consult. Get a free fixed-price quote or call HEW Projects on 0485 863 485. Explore our local service pages: Bathroom Renovations Logan and Bathroom Renovations Ipswich.
