What Shapes a Bathroom Renovation in Bau

Bau is an old gold-mining town southwest of Kuching, set among limestone hills and Bidayuh villages, with family homes in town and rural houses spread through the district. Many bathrooms here are in older houses with original pipes and simple tiled wet areas without any screen. A plumbing upgrade from RM500 per job, and a shower screen from RM800 per installation to keep the rest of the room dry, are sensible improvements. Bau owners can enquire; site-visit availability is confirmed on WhatsApp, and project schedules are confirmed per location for Bau.

FAQ

Bathroom Renovation Questions, Answered

Our Bau home has a simple wet bathroom with no screen. What can be improved without a full renovation?

A shower screen and a small vanity cabinet often make the biggest difference. If water already pools in the wrong places, regrading the floor may be worth adding. Each option is priced separately after the Bau site visit.

I live in Kuching but own a house in Bau. Can I arrange a renovation there?

Yes. You can handle photos, choices and approvals on WhatsApp, and site-visit availability for Bau is confirmed there. Someone needs to provide access for the visit and the works.

How does the Bau quotation handle hidden problems?

If damaged pipes or similar issues are found once work starts, they are photographed and priced for your approval before continuing. The original quotation stays as agreed unless you accept a change.

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.
