Ensuite Bathroom Renovations in New Zealand

What to consider during an ensuite renovation?

Functionality is key when it comes to designing your ensuite. Are you planning a single ensuite room which will only be used occasionally by guests? Or is this a big ensuite for your master bedroom that requires double vanities? Consider the purpose of your ensuite renovation early in the planning process to help guide your design and budget decisions.

Consider the look and feel of your ensuite bathroom. Are you being led by design or budget?

You may want to keep a guest ensuite neutral, but let personality shine through in your own master ensuite. If you want your ensuite to have a sanctuary feel about it, take the time to thoughtfully design the space and consider elements that can make it feel special, such as underfloor heating, designer tile options, or a free-standing tub.

Water tightness is a key factor to consider when you’re renovating an ensuite because any leaks can cause significant water damage. If your ensuite lacks exterior windows, ventilation measures must be taken to ensure a healthy and compliant bathroom too! Discover our ensuite bathroom design tips here.

What are some ensuite bathroom design ideas?

Whether you have the space for a double shower ensuite, or are looking for small ensuite renovation ideas, intentional design is key. This will ensure space is maximised, and you achieve the look and feel that suits your needs and lifestyle. Every renovation is unique, but for some helpful ensuite ideas, consider these top tips.

• Recess storage to make the most of your space. Make use of existing wall cavities for shower niches and recessed cabinets.
• Add timber for natural warmth and appeal.
• Retain plumbing points in original positions to keep costs down.
• Don’t forget adequate power points for lighting, hair dryers, and heated towel rails.
• When it comes to tile options, match your floor and wall tiling to help the space feel more spacious and luxurious.
• Upgrade your tapware for impact on the overall look and feel of your space.
• While everyone loves white for its clean look and spacious feel, don’t be afraid to inject colour. Moody hues can be particularly good in an ensuite.

What is the cost to build an ensuite?

The average cost of an ensuite renovation is hard to calculate because the price will vary widely depending on the size of the space and the materials chosen. A big ensuite with double vanities, floor to ceiling tiles, and top end tapware will cost significantly more than a small ensuite with basic fittings. Your Renovation Consultant will work with you to find the best solutions to meet your renovation goals within your budget.
