Before you get a quote
Four things to know first
- Over A$10,000 the builder must be registered Victoria's Building and Plumbing Commission registers builders for work worth more than A$10,000, and a major domestic building contract is required at the same line.
- Waterproofing is building work, not plumbing Victoria has a builder class limited to waterproofing. The tapware and pipes are plumbing, a separate trade with its own compliance certificate.
- An older bathroom can hide asbestos The City of Greater Geelong says asbestos is present in many Victorian homes and stays safe until it is drilled or cut. Stripping a bathroom does both.
- The City wants a permit before major renovations Inside the City of Greater Geelong, an Asset Protection Permit protects the footpath, road and drains in front of the property. It costs A$265.00.

Bathroom Renovations across Geelong
A bathroom renovation in Victoria is building work, plumbing work and electrical work at once, and each has its own paperwork. The plumber owes you a compliance certificate for plumbing work valued at A$750 or more. The electrician's work comes with a Certificate of Electrical Safety. The waterproofing is building work, with its own registration class, not a plumbing job. Inside the City of Greater Geelong a major renovation also needs the City's Asset Protection Permit, which costs A$265.00 and should be applied for at least three weeks before work begins. The Asset Protection Permit article covers it, and the suburbs page shows what turns on the kind of home.
