Bathroom Renovation Contractor in Bantry Bay
Bathroom Renovations in Bantry Bay
68 Projects Building Co renovates bathrooms in Bantry Bay's cliffside homes and its apartment blocks — where getting the material to the working level is planned before the first tile is chosen.
Your Local Bantry Bay Bathroom Contractor
Half the Job Is Getting There
Bantry Bay is built on terraces cut into the cliff. Streets are steep and narrow with little turning room, and a great many properties drop away sharply below the road, so the bath, the tiles, the vanity, and every barrow of strip-out rubble have to be moved deliberately rather than simply carried through a front door.
We work that out at the site visit and price it as its own line, because a bathroom quote that ignores access is not a quote at all. The other constant here is exposure — no shelter between the property and the Atlantic, and sustained wind on top of the spray — which decides the tapware, glass hardware, and window detailing we recommend.

The Details That Lift a Bantry Bay Bathroom
A good bathroom here is a handful of decisions made well, and at least two of them are about surviving the position. These are the features Bantry Bay owners ask us for most often.
Walk-In Showers
Curbless, frameless glass showers that feel bigger and are far easier to clean.
Lit Recessed Niches
Built-in shelving with concealed LED strips — storage that doubles as a feature.
Feature Tiling
Fan-pattern, terrazzo, and mosaic tiling used to give one wall real presence.
Freestanding Baths
A sculptural bath with wall-mounted mixers, set against a tiled feature wall.
Coastal-Grade Tapware
Finishes and shower hardware chosen to survive spray and sustained wind.
Sea-Facing Glazing
Bathroom windows detailed for privacy and the view, and sealed for the exposure.
Why Choose Us
A Bathroom Contractor You Only Have to Phone Once
Most bathroom renovations go wrong in the gaps between trades — the tiler waiting on the plumber, the electrician arriving after the walls are closed. On a site where every delivery has to be handled twice, those gaps are much more expensive than they look. Running the whole job ourselves removes them.

- Local team working across Bantry Bay and the Atlantic Seaboard
- Material handling to cliffside levels planned and priced before demolition starts
- Coastal-grade fittings and hardware specified for spray and sustained wind
- Comfortable in a freestanding house or inside a block's building rules
- Written scope and fixed quote before demolition starts

Bathroom Renovation FAQs for Bantry Bay Owners
Getting materials down to the working level, houses versus blocks, salt and fittings, timelines, costs, and how to get a quote.
Do you renovate bathrooms throughout Bantry Bay?
Yes. We work across Bantry Bay, in the freestanding homes stepping down the cliffside and in the apartment blocks, as well as neighbouring Sea Point, Fresnaye, Clifton, Camps Bay, and Bakoven.
Can you get materials down to a property below the road?
This is the question that decides most Bantry Bay jobs, and we answer it at the site visit rather than in week two. Properties here sit on terraced platforms and many drop away sharply from the street, so a bath, a slab of tile, and every barrow of strip-out rubble has to be moved to and from the working level deliberately. We work out how before we quote, and it appears as a real line item rather than a hopeful assumption.
How long does a bathroom renovation take?
A straightforward bathroom takes three to four weeks on site, and five to six if the layout or plumbing moves. On a property that drops away from the road, getting material in and rubble out adds to every stage, so we build that into the programme rather than promising a suburban timeline we cannot hold.
Can you work in a house here, or only in a block?
Both. Bantry Bay is a genuine mix of freestanding cliffside homes and apartment buildings, and we work in each of them regularly. In a block we operate within body corporate rules and approved hours, arrange access with the managing agent, protect the common areas, and set out the scope in a form that can be put to trustees. In a house we plan the route in and the protection of finished rooms instead.
How does the salt affect bathroom fittings up here?
There is no shelter between these properties and the Atlantic, and the wind is relentless. Exposed tapware finishes, shower and frameless-glass hardware, mirror backing, extractor grilles, and window frames all degrade faster than they would inland. We advise on finishes that hold up in the position and specify accordingly rather than leaving you to find out in three years.
What does a bathroom renovation cost in Bantry Bay?
Most full bathroom renovations fall between R40,000 and R150,000 depending on size, finishes, and whether the layout changes. On cliffside properties, access and material handling are priced separately and honestly so you can see exactly what that part of the job costs.
How do you make sure the bathroom does not leak later?
Waterproofing is the part nobody sees and the part that fails first when it is rushed. We set the falls, run upstands at the shower, lay a continuous membrane over the wet zones, and allow the correct curing time before tiling. In multi-level homes and in flats we pay particular attention to bathrooms sitting over living space, because that is where a slow leak does the most damage.
