Your Local Sea Point Bathroom Contractor
Renovating a Bathroom in a Building Full of People
Sea Point is dense and vertical — rows of blocks running back from the promenade, most of them decades old, and almost all of them sectional title. A bathroom here is never just a room. It sits above someone's ceiling, its services run through shared walls, and getting a bath up to the seventh floor means booking a lift and keeping a lobby clean while residents come and go.
That is normal work for us. We plan the access and the building rules alongside the layout and the finishes, and we go in expecting what older blocks tend to hide behind the tiles — tired galvanised pipework, cast-in services, and original waterproofing that has long since stopped doing anything.

The Details That Lift a Sea Point Bathroom
Flats here are rarely generous, so most of the gain comes from reclaiming floor area and getting the light right. These are the features Sea Point 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.
Wall-Hung Fittings
Concealed cisterns and wall-hung pans that free up floor area in a compact flat.
Double Vanities
Floating timber units with twin counter-top basins for shared main bathrooms.
Dark, Moody Guest Loos
Deep colour, warm lighting, and hard-wearing tapware in smaller spaces.
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.

- Local team working across Sea Point and the Atlantic Seaboard

- Waterproofing detailed so the flat below never finds out
- Written scope in a form that can be put to trustees or a managing agent
- Fixed quote before demolition starts, including what we expect to find behind the tiles

Bathroom Renovation FAQs for Sea Point Owners
Body corporate access, what older blocks hide behind the tiles, waterproofing above the flat below, timelines, costs, and how to get a quote.
Do you renovate bathrooms throughout Sea Point?
Yes. We work across Sea Point, from the blocks along the promenade back up the slope towards the main road, and in neighbouring Mouille Point, Green Point, Three Anchor Bay, Fresnaye, Bantry Bay, and Clifton.
Can you work in a flat or sectional title building?
Sea Point is overwhelmingly sectional title, so this is most of what we do here. We work within body corporate rules and approved working hours, arrange access and goods lift bookings through the managing agent, protect lobbies and common passages, and give neighbours notice before the noisy stages. Where the work needs trustee sign-off, we set the scope out in a form that can be put to them directly.
What do you find when the tiles come off in an older Sea Point block?
Often more than the owner expected. Many of these buildings are decades old, and behind the tiles we regularly find original galvanised pipework nearing the end of its life, services cast into the walls, and waterproofing that was never really there. We allow for investigation in the quote, show you what we have found before we close anything up, and price the extra work properly rather than tiling over a problem.
How do you make sure the bathroom does not leak into the flat below?
This is the single most expensive bathroom failure in Sea Point, 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 flat bathroom usually takes three to four weeks on site, and five to six if the layout or plumbing moves or if old pipework has to be replaced. Building access rules 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 Sea Point?
Most full bathroom renovations fall between R40,000 and R150,000 depending on size, finishes, and whether the layout changes. In an older block, replacing tired pipework or making good poor original waterproofing can add to that, which is why we quote after a site visit rather than off a floor plan.
Can I stay in the flat during the renovation?
Usually yes. We seal off the work area, protect the route in from the lift, and clean up daily. In a single-bathroom flat we plan the plumbing isolations with the caretaker and keep the shut-down windows as short as we can, so the building carries on functioning around the job.
How do I get a quote for my Sea Point 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.
