Design-led bathroom renovations in Kohimarama and across East Auckland. Full renovations, ensuites, wet rooms, tiling and waterproofing — fixed written quotes, certified waterproofing and a workmanship guarantee.
Kohimarama — Kohi to the locals — is a prized eastern-bays suburb strung along its sandy beach between Mission Bay and St Heliers. It's family country with real coastal appeal: established villas and bungalows set among substantial modern homes and a scattering of apartments near the waterfront. Homeowners here tend to invest in quality and stay for the long haul, so the bathrooms they want are well-designed, well-built and made to last — not a quick cosmetic fix.
We deliver exactly that, with every renovation built to the NZ Building Code, waterproofed to AS/NZS 3740, and backed by a fixed written quote and workmanship guarantee. To get started, Get a Free Quote.
Kohimarama families typically renovate once and want it done right. That means durable, timeless choices over trend-chasing: quality large-format tiling, solid cabinetry, tapware that lasts, and a layout that genuinely suits the household. We design the main bathroom around how your family actually uses it — twin basins to ease the morning rush, a proper bath for the kids, and storage that keeps the clutter hidden.
Behind Tamaki Drive, Kohi has lovely older villas and bungalows whose bathrooms are usually small, dated and showing the wear of decades near the sea. Renovating them well means respecting the home's period while rebuilding to modern standards. We strip back to a sound substrate, deal with any moisture-affected framing, install a full waterproofing membrane, and choose fittings that suit the home's character. The result performs like new but belongs to the house. Our tiling craft is central to pulling that balance off.
As families grow, a master ensuite is one of the most valued upgrades we do in Kohimarama — and in these homes there's often space to do it well. We create private, well-planned ensuites with walk-in showers, double vanities and quality finishes, carving them from existing bedrooms or hallways where needed and managing any new drainage through Auckland Council consent. See our ensuite renovation and master bathroom services.
Being a beachside suburb, Kohimarama homes face salt-laden air that's harder on fittings than inland conditions. We specify tapware and accessories with finishes suited to the coast, and we design ventilation carefully to manage internal moisture (G12/E3) in rooms that can run humid. These are the quiet decisions that keep a bathroom looking and performing well many years after the build — the sort of thing you only appreciate down the track.
Your final price depends on size, layout and fixtures, so treat these Auckland ranges as a guide:
Older villas can carry some hidden repair costs once the walls are open — we flag any of that before we proceed, never after. Our cost guide explains the variables. We're the Kohimarama team of Bathroom Renovation Auckland, also serving neighbouring Mission Bay and St Heliers.
