Bathroom Renovation Contractor in Century City
Bathroom Renovations in Century City
68 Projects Building Co renovates apartment and townhouse bathrooms across the Century City precinct — approved by the trustees, run inside the building's hours, and waterproofed so the unit below never finds out.
Your Local Century City Bathroom Contractor
The Rules Are Half the Job
Century City is a managed precinct, and that shapes every renovation in it. Almost everything is sectional title or inside an HOA, the schemes run to defined hours, access goes through a managing agent, and anything touching common property needs sign- off before it starts. A contractor who treats that as an obstacle will cost you weeks.
We plan the approvals and the access alongside the layout and the finishes. The units themselves are newer than the older Atlantic Seaboard blocks we work in, so there are fewer surprises behind the tiles — but the bathroom still sits above someone's ceiling, and that is where the waterproofing detail earns its money.
What's Included
Every Trade Your Bathroom Renovation Needs
You appoint one contractor. We take care of the full scope, from the scheme submission to the final silicone bead.
Scheme Submissions
The scope set out in the form your body corporate, HOA, or managing agent needs to approve it.
Protected Access
Lift bookings, boards and sheeting in lobbies and passages, and rubble carried out, not dropped.
Strip-Out & Prep
Careful demolition in an occupied building, with dust contained and the unit sealed off.
Plumbing
New pipework tied back into the existing stack, with drainage falls checked before anything is closed.
Waterproofing
A continuous membrane, correct falls, and full curing time — the detail that protects the unit below.
Electrical & Lighting
Downlights, mirror and niche lighting, extractor fans, and compliant circuits back to the DB.
Tiling
Large-format porcelain and feature tiling set out to make an apartment bathroom read generously.
Joinery & Fittings
Floating vanities, frameless glass, wall-hung toilets, and tapware installed and tested.
Design Details
The Details That Lift a Century City Bathroom
Apartment bathrooms here were built to a developer's standard spec, which means most of them look like every other unit in the block. These are the changes that make one feel like it was designed for you.
Walk-In Showers
Curbless, frameless glass showers that free up floor and lift the whole unit at valuation.
Wall-Hung Everything
Hung toilets and basins with concealed cisterns, so the floor runs clear wall to wall.
Lit Recessed Niches
Built-in shelving with concealed LED strips — storage that does not eat into the shower.
Feature Tiling
Terrazzo, fan-pattern, and mosaic tiling used to give a standard-issue apartment bathroom character.
Better Extraction
Properly sized fans ducted into the building's system, because most apartment bathrooms have no window.
Hard-Wearing Finishes
Porcelain and solid tapware specified to hold up through tenants and still show well at resale.
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. In an occupied block with approved hours and a booked lift, every one of those gaps costs you a week and your neighbours' patience. Running the whole job ourselves removes them.
- One contractor for plumbing, electrical, tiling, joinery, and finishing
- Used to body corporate rules, approved hours, lift bookings, and managing agents
- Scope written up in a form trustees and HOAs can actually approve
- Waterproofing detailed and tested to protect the unit below
- Common areas protected and the site cleaned daily in an occupied building
- Tight programmes for tenanted and investment units, planned around the lease

Serving Century City & Beyond
Where We Work
Century City anchors our work on this side of the city. We also renovate bathrooms in Milnerton, Summer Greens, Royal Ascot, Brooklyn, Edgemead, and Goodwood, and we take on bathroom renovations across greater Cape Town.
More Than Bathrooms
Work for the Whole Building?
Bathrooms are often the start of a bigger project. As a full building contractor in Century City, we also handle kitchens, apartment and office fit-outs, roofing and waterproofing, and common property repairs for body corporates and managing agents.
Bathroom Renovation FAQs for Century City Owners
Body corporate approval and access, waterproofing above the unit below, tenanted units, timelines, costs, and how to get a quote.
Do you renovate bathrooms throughout Century City?
Yes. We work across the precinct — the apartment blocks, the townhouse and duplex developments, and the older residential villages — as well as the surrounding areas including Milnerton, Summer Greens, Royal Ascot, Brooklyn, Edgemead, and Goodwood.
Can you work in a sectional title block or HOA development?
That is most of what we do in Century City. We work within body corporate rules and approved working hours, book the goods lift and access through the managing agent, protect lobbies and common passages, and give neighbours notice before the noisy stages. Century City schemes tend to run tighter rules than most, and we work to them rather than around them.
Does the body corporate have to approve the work?
For anything beyond a like-for-like refresh, usually yes. If you are moving plumbing, altering a wall, or changing anything that touches common property, the trustees or the managing agent will want the scope in writing before you start. We set it out in a form that can be put to them directly, so approval does not become the thing that delays your project.
How do you make sure the bathroom does not leak into the flat below?
This is the single most expensive apartment bathroom failure and it is entirely preventable. We set correct falls to the outlet, run upstands at the shower, lay a continuous membrane across the wet zones, test it, and allow the full curing time before a tile goes down. Waterproofing is the part nobody sees and the part that fails first when it is rushed.
How long does a bathroom renovation take?
A straightforward apartment bathroom usually takes three to four weeks on site, and five to six if the layout or plumbing moves. Building access rules, lift availability, and approved hours affect the programme too, and we confirm a realistic timeline with your quote rather than an optimistic one.
What does a bathroom renovation cost in Century City?
Most full bathroom renovations fall between R40,000 and R150,000 depending on size, finishes, and whether the layout changes. Access constraints in a high-rise can add to the labour, which is why we quote after a site visit rather than off a floor plan.
Can you work on a tenanted or investment unit?
Yes, and a good share of Century City stock is exactly that. We plan the programme around the lease — usually between tenants — spec finishes that hold up to turnover rather than fragile ones, and keep the unit out of action for as short a window as we can so the rental gap stays small.
How do I get a quote for my Century City bathroom?
Get in touch to arrange a free site visit. We assess the existing bathroom, check the building's access rules and what the scheme requires, discuss layout and finishes, and send you a written quote covering the full scope of work.
