Blockhouse Bay is one of the west's established, leafy suburbs — a village centre, a quiet bay on the Manukau Harbour, and streets lined with character bungalows and solid post-war family homes. Named for the old colonial blockhouse once built to guard the area, it has a settled, community feel that homeowners here are keen to protect, bathroom renovations included.
We renovate bathrooms with a careful eye for this kind of suburb: respecting the character of a 1920s or 30s bungalow while delivering a modern, dry, hard-wearing bathroom underneath. From the village to the waterfront streets around Craigavon Park, we work across Blockhouse Bay with a fixed written quote.
Blockhouse Bay holds a lot of genuine character housing — 1920s to 40s bungalows with timber floors, native linings and generous proportions, alongside tidy post-war family homes. These houses are lovely, but their original bathrooms were small, utilitarian, and built long before modern waterproofing existed.
The craft in a Blockhouse Bay renovation is updating the bathroom without stripping the home of its soul. We keep what's worth keeping, work sensitively around timber framing and original features, and build a bathroom that feels like it belongs in a character home — not a glossy box that fights it.
Old bungalows hide surprises. Behind the tiles we regularly find damp timber, failed or non-existent waterproofing, borer-affected framing, and plumbing well past its life. A proper bungalow renovation deals with all of it before the pretty work begins.
With the Manukau Harbour on the doorstep, Blockhouse Bay bathrooms benefit from the same coastal planning we apply elsewhere on the west coast — strong ventilation to manage humidity and fittings that cope with a maritime climate. It's a small thing that makes a big difference to how long a renovation lasts.
Thoughtful tiling and quality vanity cabinetry round out a bathroom that's as practical as it is good-looking, built to handle family life near the water.
Character homes deserve careful, compliant work. Every bathroom we build meets the NZ Building Code, with registered plumbers and electricians on the job, waterproofing to AS/NZS 3740, and ventilation to control internal moisture. Where a renovation moves plumbing or changes the layout, we handle any Auckland Council consent and inspections.
