Get clear on your measurements

Ensure you have accurate room measurements and layout plans, including any doorways, windows, or nib walls. It's handy to also have existing plumbing and drainage location information on hand.

Product Dimensions

Utilise our Imagin3D tool, our 3D Planner to help you create a visual representation of your bathroom. This tool can help you understand how different products will fit within the space and really start creating a clear visual. Hot tip: This is also a great tool to share with your team of trades and consultants to communicate your plan.

Build a checklist

Develop a checklist encompassing all the decisions and orders you need to make. This methodical approach helps you keep track and ensures no important aspect is overlooked. Rest assured our team of consultants can help you with this and through consultation will prompt you with questions on your requirements.

Prioritise your preferences

Identify which product features matter most to you, be it sustainability, a bath for the family, Australian made products, smart technology integration, or specific delivery timelines. Think about modern additions like LED mirrors, Smart Toilets, sensor tapware, and thermostatic shower mixers to enhance convenience and potentially increase your bathroom's resale value. If you have any questions, add them to your checklist to raise with your consultant.

Bring in the experts

If you're uncertain about your measurements, consider bringing along your plumber, designer, or any team member willing to assist. Their insights can prove invaluable.

Get your consultant up to speed

Engage in a detailed conversation with your consultant. Share your plans, concerns, budget constraints, timelines, and your team of tradespeople. This knowledge allows your consultant to provide tailored recommendations and a personalised approach.

Take your products for a test drive

Interact with the products in various lighting conditions. This ensures that your choices remain appealing under different light settings and you don’t get any surprises once they’re installed. Or take our showers for a test run with our working shower display wall.

Match and compare finishes

Align your potential selections with other finishes in your space, such as tiles, paint samples, and light fixtures. This step guarantees visual cohesiveness across your bathroom design and that everything matches back to your vision.

Stay on course

Frequently refer to your checklist and budget to maintain a clear overview of your progress.
