Bathroom Renovation Contractor in Fresnaye
Bathroom Renovations in Fresnaye
68 Projects Building Co rebuilds one bathroom inside a finished Fresnaye home — sealed off, dust-controlled, and handed back without a mark on the rest of the house.
Your Local Fresnaye Bathroom Contractor
The Hard Part Is Everything Outside the Bathroom
Fresnaye homes run from mid-century houses through to contemporary architect-designed ones, almost all on platforms cut into the slope and almost all designed to open outward towards the view. The interiors are finished to a high standard, and that is what makes a single bathroom renovation delicate: the room itself is straightforward, but the route to it runs past everything you have already spent money on.
So we plan the containment before the tiling. Sealed work zone, dust controlled at source, boards and covers down the whole route, and one team in and out rather than five trades finding their own way through your house.

The Details That Lift a Fresnaye Bathroom
In homes built around a view, the bathroom is usually the one room that has to work harder at privacy than at openness. These are the features Fresnaye 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.
Double Vanities
Floating timber units with twin counter-top basins for generous main en-suites.
Sea-Facing Glazing
Bathroom windows worked around the view and the privacy the room actually needs.

Bathroom Renovation FAQs for Fresnaye Homeowners
Protecting a finished interior, deliveries on steep streets, timelines, costs, waterproofing over living space, and how to get a quote.
Do you renovate bathrooms throughout Fresnaye?
Yes. We work across Fresnaye, from the mid-century houses on the lower streets up to the contemporary homes cut into the slope below Signal Hill, as well as neighbouring Sea Point, Bantry Bay, Clifton, Camps Bay, and Green Point.
Can you renovate one bathroom in a finished, high-specification home?
This is the question we are asked most often in Fresnaye, and it is the part of the job we take most seriously. We seal the bathroom off as a contained work zone, control the dust at source, and lay a protected route from the door to the room so that traffic never touches finished floors, joinery, or stair treads. Tools and material follow that route, rubble leaves by it, and the rest of the house carries on as normal.
How long does a bathroom renovation take?
A straightforward Fresnaye bathroom usually takes three to four weeks on site. Moving plumbing, changing the layout, or waiting on imported tiles and fittings can push that to five or six weeks. We confirm a realistic timeline with your quote.
Can I stay in my home during the renovation?
In most cases, yes, and most Fresnaye homes have enough bathrooms to make it comfortable. The work area stays sealed, passages and floors stay covered, and we clean up daily. If the bathroom is the only one, we plan the plumbing shut-downs and the order of work to keep the disruption as short as possible.
Deliveries on a steep, narrow street — is that a problem?
It is a constraint rather than a problem. Fresnaye's streets are steep and narrow with limited turning and parking, so we schedule deliveries rather than having material dropped whenever a supplier happens to arrive, and we break loads down into sizes that suit the property. On the steepest sites material goes down to the working level in stages. Either way it is planned before the job starts.
What does a bathroom renovation cost in Fresnaye?
Most full bathroom renovations fall between R40,000 and R150,000 depending on size, finishes, and whether the layout changes. Main en-suites in Fresnaye tend to sit in the upper band, mostly because of imported tiles, tapware, and bespoke joinery rather than the building work itself. We quote per bathroom after a site visit.
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 prepare and seal the shower, wet zones, and floor properly, allow the correct curing time, and only then tile over it. In the multi-level homes common here, we pay particular attention to bathrooms sitting above living space, because that is where a slow leak does the most expensive damage.
