Welcome to HRE Built Pty Ltd
Complete bathroom renovations in Ashwood
Transform your bathroom into a space that actually works with our bathroom renovations in Ashwood. HRE Built specialises in turning dated, leaking and cramped bathrooms into stylish, functional rooms that suit your home and your budget.
Ashwood sits in Melbourne’s inner east, and most of its housing stock is post-war brick veneer and 1960s-70s homes on generous blocks. That usually means original bathrooms with small windows, dated waterproofing and floor plans that waste space. We reset the layout, replace the services behind the wall and rebuild the room properly rather than tiling over old problems.
Our team of designers, tradespeople and project managers works with you from first measure to final clean, so you get one point of contact, one written program and one fixed-price contract — not a queue of subcontractors to chase.

Our process
How your Ashwood bathroom
renovation runs
01
Design consultation
We measure up in Ashwood, talk through layout, storage and finishes, then set a scope and budget before anything is ordered.
02
Planning and permits
Where the job needs a building permit or plumbing compliance certificates, we prepare and lodge the paperwork and keep the documentation for you.
03
Demolition and installation
The old bathroom comes out, framing and services are corrected, waterproofing is installed to AS 3740 and the new bathroom is built in sequence.
04
Finishing touches
Tapware, screens, lighting, mirrors and accessories go in, then a full clean, defect walkthrough and handover of compliance certificates.
Local knowledge
Building in Ashwood, 3147
Ashwood's brick-veneer housing stock
Most Ashwood bathrooms sit on a timber-framed floor over a subfloor. We check joists and bearers for water damage before tiling, because a bouncy floor is what cracks new tiles and grout.
Small original bathrooms
The typical Ashwood bathroom is under 6m². Moving a wall, swapping to a wall-hung vanity or replacing a bath with a walk-in shower usually buys more usable space than any amount of new tile.
Working around Monash and the freeway
Ashwood streets near Warrigal Road and the Monash Freeway get busy. We schedule deliveries, skip bins and trade access outside peak periods so your driveway and the footpath stay usable.

Bathroom Renovations in Ashwood — frequently asked questions
How much does a bathroom renovation cost in Ashwood?
Cost depends on the size of the room, whether services are relocated and the finish level you choose. After an on-site measure we give a written fixed-price quote broken into line items, so you can adjust the scope before committing.
How long does a bathroom renovation take?
A typical Ashwood bathroom runs about three to five weeks on site, including strip-out, plumbing and electrical rough-in, waterproofing and its cure time, tiling, then fit-off. You get a written program with stage dates before we start.
Do I need a permit to renovate my bathroom?
A like-for-like refit usually does not need a building permit, but structural changes do, and all plumbing and waterproofing work must be carried out by licensed trades with compliance certificates issued. We confirm what your job needs and handle the paperwork.
Is the waterproofing certified?
Yes. Waterproofing is installed to AS 3740 by licensed trades and documented, and you receive the compliance certificates at handover.
Can we still use the house during the renovation?
In most Ashwood homes yes — we dust-seal the work zone, protect floors and access paths, and keep the site tidy each day. If the home has only one bathroom we will tell you which days it is out of service before we start.
Which suburbs near Ashwood do you service?
We renovate bathrooms across the inner east including Ashburton, Chadstone, Mount Waverley, Burwood, Glen Iris, Malvern East, Oakleigh and Camberwell, as well as the wider Melbourne metropolitan area.
