Iconic Renovations & Co is a licensed, insured provider of bathroom renovations in Castle Hill, turning dated bathrooms into rooms that work properly and hold up over time. With over 22 years of experience, we specialise in bespoke solutions that cater to the unique needs and preferences of each client.
Most of what we see in Castle Hill follows a pattern: a 1980s to early 2000s brick home with a main bathroom, a separate toilet next to it, a small ensuite and a corner spa bath nobody has used in a decade. There’s usually more space to work with here than in inner Sydney, which opens up options most suburbs don’t have.
Craftsmanship is what we’re judged on, so it’s where we put the effort. Our team is made up of designers, carpenters and licensed trades who have been doing this work for years, not months. The difference lands in the small things – how the tile set out finishes into a corner, whether the vanity sits dead level, how the silicone lines look when you’re standing close to them.
A bathroom is the hardest-working room in the house, and it spends its life wet. That rules out anything chosen purely on looks. We specify tiles, moisture-resistant cabinetry and fixtures on how they wear over ten years, not how they photograph in a showroom, and we’ll walk you through the choices rather than hand you a catalogue and leave you to it.
Larger Hills homes give you room for decisions that don’t fit elsewhere – a double vanity, a freestanding bath, a proper walk-in shower with a screen instead of a shower over the bath. We’ll tell you honestly which of those your floor plan will actually take.
No two households use a bathroom the same way, so every design starts from nothing. We sit down with you first: what’s not working, who’s using the room and when, and what you’re comfortable spending. Pared-back and modern or something warmer and more traditional both work well, provided the layout underneath is sound.
Custom bathroom renovations in Castle Hill often begin with the same question: what do we do about the separate toilet? Taking out the dividing wall to create one larger bathroom is usually the single change that makes the biggest difference to a project home. Removing a redundant corner spa runs a close second, and it frees up more floor area than people expect.
Plans on paper only take you so far, so we produce 3D renderings of the proposed bathroom before anything is ordered. Seeing the tile, vanity, bath and screen together in your actual room settles decisions quickly, and it’s the cheapest moment in the entire project to change your mind about a layout.
A bathroom puts four or five trades through one small room in a fixed order, and each one is waiting on the one before it. We run that whole sequence – arranging any approvals required, booking trades, supervising the work and checking it off – so nobody arrives in a room that isn’t ready for them. Managed properly, that’s the difference between three weeks and six.
Waterproofing is the step that can’t be compressed. Internal wet areas must be waterproofed to Australian Standard AS 3740 by a licensed contractor, and the membrane needs its full curing time before tiling starts. Any renovator promising to jump ahead of that is storing up a problem for you. If your home has two bathrooms, we can also stage the work so you keep a functioning one throughout – worth planning for if you’ve got a family in the house.
You’ll always know where your job is. We’ll tell you what’s happening this week, what’s coming next, and if something shifts you’ll hear it from us before you notice it yourself. Ask a question and you’ll get a straight answer rather than a runaround. It’s the thing our clients raise most often in reviews, and it’s the part of the job plenty of renovators get wrong.
The details are what you live with daily. A niche built into the shower wall so bottles aren’t sitting on the floor. Drawers in the vanity instead of a cupboard you have to kneel down and reach into. A linen cupboard you can actually get to. We keep across current tapware, screens and shower systems so the room still reads as current in ten years rather than dating the moment trends move on.
Where it stacks up, we’ll point you towards the more responsible option – WELS-rated tapware and showerheads, LED lighting, and materials sourced with some thought behind them. The environmental case is the obvious one. The water and electricity savings turning up on your quarterly bills tends to be the more persuasive argument.
We work throughout Castle Hill and the surrounding suburbs, including Kellyville, Glenhaven, Dural, West Pennant Hills, Cherrybrook, Bella Vista, Norwest, Beaumont Hills and Winston Hills.

Often not. A like-for-like renovation keeping the existing layout and plumbing generally falls under exempt development in NSW. Removing a wall, relocating plumbing or enlarging the room will need a Complying Development Certificate or a DA. Castle Hill spans both The Hills Shire and Hornsby Shire, so check which council covers your address.
Yes, and it’s one of the most common jobs we do during bathroom renovations in Castle Hill. Removing the dividing wall gives you a single larger bathroom with room for a proper shower and vanity. Whether the wall is load-bearing determines how involved the work is, which we can confirm on site.
We can. Corner spas went into a lot of Hills homes through the nineties and they take up a surprising amount of floor space for something rarely used. Swapping one for a freestanding bath or a larger shower usually makes the whole room feel bigger.
Around six to eight weeks on site for most bathrooms, covering strip-out, plumbing and electrical rough-in, waterproofing and curing, tiling and fit-off. Tile and fixture lead times sit outside that window, so we give you a full timeline at quote stage rather than a best-case guess.
The main variables are the size of the room, whether the plumbing stays where it is, and what you pick for tiles and fixtures. We’re mid-market – not the cheapest quote you’ll get, and not the dearest. Rather than publish a range that tells you nothing, we’d rather come and look and give you a real number.
Yes. We’re a Master Builders Association member working under builder’s licence 301036C, and we’ll send through licence and insurance paperwork before you sign anything.
