Custom bathroom renovations across brisbane and ipswich
Your bathroom is one of the most important rooms in your home.
Your bathroom is one of the most hardworking spaces in your home. It needs to stand up to heavy daily family use while providing a clean, functional, and relaxing environment.
At Inhouse by Brinckman Effect, we deliver complete bathroom transformations tailored to your lifestyle, home, and budget. From concept and layout design through to waterproofing, tiling, and final trade fit-off, our dedicated team manages every single stage. You get a beautifully finished, custom-built bathroom without the stress of coordinating separate trades.
A Stress-Free Renovation Process Managed Start to Finish
Renovating a bathroom shouldn’t disrupt your life more than necessary. Managing multiple independent contractors (plumbers, electricians, waterproofer, and tilers) often leads to miscommunication, budget overruns, and unnecessary delays.
We eliminate that friction by providing a single point of contact from day one.
Complete Project Management: We handle demolition, trade scheduling, product deliveries, building compliance, and site cleanup. You never have to chase down a subcontractor.
Respect for Your Home: Most bathroom renovations take 3 to 4 weeks. During construction, we protect your property by laying rubber floor protection along high-traffic pathways, managing dust, and removing site waste daily.
Licensed Craftsmanship & Peace of Mind: We are fully licensed by the Queensland Building and Construction Commission (QBCC) and back our structural workmanship with a 7-year guarantee.
Complete Bathroom Renovation Services
Whether you want to optimise a compact family bathroom, relocate structural walls for an open wet room, or completely modernise an outdated space, we handle every detail
Spatial Design & Layout Advice: Expert guidance on spatial planning, lighting placement, and fixture selection to maximise usability and flow.
Demolition & Site Preparation: Safe removal of old fixtures, wall linings, flooring, and waste, including structural alterations where required.
Plumbing, Drainage & Electrical: Complete rough-in work, trade alterations, fan ventilation, and custom lighting setups.
Certified Waterproofing: Precise, code-compliant membrane application to protect your subfloor and surrounding structures against moisture damage.
Floor Leveling & Screeding: Perfect fall to floor wastes to eliminate standing water and guarantee long-term tiling performance.
Floor & Wall Tiling: Precision tiling, including feature walls, niches, and large-format tiles using mould-resistant grouts and silicones.
Vanity, Fixture & Glass Installation: Full fit-off of vanities, mirrors, tapware, and custom shower screens treated with protective glass sealant.
Materials Built for South East Queensland Conditions
A great bathroom looks exceptional on completion, but its true test is how well it performs five to ten years down the track. South East Queensland’s local water conditions and humid climate demand specific product choices and installation standards.
Mould-Resistant Grouts & Silicones: We exclusively use high-grade grouts and silicones formulated to resist mould growth, preventing discoloration and keeping your bathroom hygienic.
Hard-Water Glass Protection: Chlorine and mineral deposits in local water supplies quickly cause etching and cloudiness on shower screens. We treat your shower glass with a protective sealant during installation to keep it clear and easy to clean.
Proven Local Materials: We source materials from local Queensland suppliers who offer genuine long-term product warranties.
Freedom of Choice: Work with our partner, Inhouse Trade Centre, or your own Suppliers.
We believe your renovation should reflect your personal style, not limit you to a rigid package deal.
If you want to take the guess work out of it, we work closely with Inhouse Trade Centre who offer thorough, in-person product selection appointments to help you find the best options at a great price, without the hassle. From there, we handle the sourcing and coordination, making sure everything arrives exactly when your project needs it. Alternatively, if you have sourced a unique timber vanity from a boutique retailer or fallen in love with specific tiles from an independent supplier, we are glad to install them for you. You have total freedom over design, materials, and budget.

Frequently asked questions about bathroom renovations
How much does a bathroom renovation typically cost?
Our fully managed, turnkey bathroom renovations typically range from $32,000 to $48,000, inclusive of all fixtures and fittings. For the core build and trade labour alone, projects start from around $26,000, plus your chosen fixtures and fittings. However, your final investment will depend on your layout and finish selections.
What is included in the project cost?
Our pricing is fully inclusive. It covers our entire team of trades — waterproofers, plasterers, plumbers, electricians and painters (& more!) — together with all structural materials, bespoke cabinetry, shower screens, and complete project management from start to finish.
Can you help us with the design?
Yes. Our dedicated in-house interior designer brings over six years' specialised experience across bathrooms, kitchens and laundries, and will work closely with you to bring your vision to life.
Do you supply the fittings and fixtures, or can we source our own?
The choice is entirely yours. You're welcome to select and supply your own fixtures, tapware and tiles to suit your personal style, or we can source and supply everything on your behalf.
How long does a standard bathroom renovation take?
A standard renovation typically takes three to four weeks on-site, from start to finish.
Can we use our own tradespeople?
Generally, no. To protect your project timeline and our quality standards, we work exclusively with our trusted team. If you or a family member are a licensed tradesperson interested in completing part of the work, this needs to be discussed with us in advance to ensure it fits within our construction schedule.
How do we get started with an in-home measure and quote?
We offer an in-home measure and consultation for $99.00 (incl. GST), fully credited back to your project once work begins. Simply let us know your preferred date and property address, and we'll arrange an invoice and confirm your site visit.
What warranty do you offer on completed work?
All workmanship is guaranteed for seven years and is fully compliant with the Building Code of Australia and the Queensland Building and Construction Commission (QBCC).
Will our quote change once work begins?
We stand by our quotes. Any additional work identified once the project is underway will always be discussed and agreed with you before it proceeds.
What areas do you service?
We proudly service Ipswich and Greater Brisbane. If your property falls just outside this area, please contact us to discuss availability.
