Arau

What Shapes a Bathroom Renovation in Arau

With the university in town, a good number of Arau houses are rented to students, and their bathrooms see heavy use and frequent turnover. Landlords tend to want durable, easy-clean surfaces: porcelain tiles from RM25 per sq ft, sound waterproofing and sturdy standard fixtures, which the Essential package (RM5,000 – RM8,000) covers. Owner-occupiers more often choose the Standard package for a shower screen and vanity. Arau owners and landlords can send photos on WhatsApp, where site-visit availability is confirmed.

FAQ

Bathroom Renovation Questions, Answered

I rent my Arau house to students. What renovation makes sense?

Durable porcelain tiles, proper waterproofing and standard fixtures are a practical choice. The Essential package, RM5,000 – RM8,000, covers those basics; your quotation sets the final scope.

Can I combine bathroom repairs for several rental houses?

Each house is quoted on its own after a site visit, so every property gets an accurate, itemised quotation. Send photos of each one on WhatsApp to begin.

What if I want a shower screen added later?

A shower screen can be installed separately at any point, from RM800 per installation. It can also be included in the Standard package if you renovate fully.

What do the package prices cover?

Each range is an estimate for that level of finish. Every quotation covers materials, labour, waterproofing and cleanup, and the final price depends on your bathroom's size, the materials you choose and the scope.

Can I supply my own tiles or fittings?

Yes. You can supply your own materials and we handle the installation, or we source them for you as part of the quotation.

What happens if damaged pipes are found behind the tiles?

We stop, photograph the problem, explain it and price the extra work. Nothing proceeds until you approve it.

Do you take single jobs, like a shower screen only?

Yes. Tiling, waterproofing, plumbing, shower screens, vanities and bathtub-to-shower conversions are each quoted on their own.
