Toilets

Choosing a toilet in your bathroom renovation project is an opportunity to update the style, functionality and ecological footprint of your interior design. In this article, we take a look at some considerations behind this significant choice – what type of toilet should you include in your bathroom renovation?

Types of Toilets

There are many types of toilets! If you’d like to learn about them all, this website has got an extensive list. When you’re choosing one for your Gold Coast bathroom renovation, you don’t need to know every type of toilet in the world. Ultimately, the choice will depend on your stylistic objectives and budget, but here are the ones you should be aware of:

Close-Coupled Toilet

Close-Coupled Toilet

A close-coupled toilet is probably the toilet you think of, when you think of a toilet. The cistern (where the water is held) is visible above the toilet, and the toilet is not connected to the wall. These toilets come in a wide variety of styles and are one of the least expensive option for modern Australian homes.

Back-to-Wall Toilet

Toilet & Bidet
Toilet & Bidet

This back-to-wall toilet was installed by our team in the renovation of a Gold Coast penthouse – nice! This one works just like the close-coupled toilet, except the unit is flush to the wall, creating a neater and more modern impression.

Wall-Mounted Toilet

Wall-Mounted Cistern

A wall-mounted toilet is built into the wall, and may be elevated from the floor. The cistern is hidden behind the wall, reducing the footprint of the toilet for a minimal and sleek impression.

Water Ratings

Before you purchase a toilet, it’s a great idea to familiarise yourself with the WELS scheme and the energy, and cost-saving benefits of selecting a toilet that uses less water to flush. The following statistics come from www.waterrating.gov.au and illustrate the savings that can be made in water and money across common bathroom and kitchen fixtures. 

For toilets, the water rating label will tell you how much water is used in an average flush.

Every litre less water that a toilet uses in an average flush, will save a typical family of four nearly 6kL and $17.50 each year in water supply charges.

If this family replaces an old single-flush toilet with a flush volume of 12L with a new 4-star toilet with an average flush volume of 3.5L, this will save 50kL and $148 each year on their water bills.

Assumptions: each family member flushes 4 times per day, at an average water price of $2.99/kL (the national average price reported in the 2014–15 Australian Bureau of Statistics Water Account).

Gold Coast Bathroom Vanity FAQ

How much does a bathroom vanity cost?

To get a quote for your vanity, please contact our team. There are a number of factors involved in assessing vanity costs in a renovation project, including the existing bathroom structure, the post-renovation bathroom structure, whether the vanity is ready-made or custom-made, and what inclusions are involved with your vanity. Don’t worry – we cover them all when you book a free bathroom renovation quote.

Is it expensive to move plumbing?

Moving plumbing, or adding new plumbing functionality, is additional work that will bring additional costs. However, like all decisions, these need to be weighed against the objectives of the project and the project budget. We help you by appraising the situation and providing options to suit.

What are the bench top options?

If vanities are the centerpiece of the bathroom, vanity benchtops are the centerpiece of the vanity! With custom vanities, the selection of materials, design and construction of your benchtop are all part of the process. Popular options include either natural materials (timber, stone) or man-made materials (laminates, engineered stone). We can help you find the right material for your bathroom and your budget – just ask our friendly team!

Mark & Di Branks

Roland delivered an exceptional product. Our Bathroom upgrade was completed on time and to budget. As with most renovations there were a number of unforeseen issues and Rolands ability to offer practical, cost effective solutions was exceptional. A very professional, clean and tidy builder and we have no hesitation in recommending his services.

Richard Anyos

Good, friendly, prompt, reliable service with attention to detail.

Small Reno Testimonial

I don’t often write reviews but felt this time I had too. A huge thank you to Roland from Armrock constructions. From the first time I contacted Roland he could not have been more helpful and professional. Roland was on time, got the job done and left my home clean and tidy. Please if your wanting a small spruce up or a full reno done these are the people to call. Thanks once again Armrock.

Renovation Testimonial

From quote to completion, Armrock was outstanding. We couldn’t be happier. Hassle free and on budget. If you’re after attention to detail you’ve come to the right place. Highly recommended. Thanks again.

 

Graham Robertson

Roland renovated both the Ensuite & main bathroom, removing the walls around separate toilets which increased the overall spaces. The team of guys who did the demolition & construction were really easy to deal with & the finish is excellent. It was no problem for us to request minor changes along the way. We’re really pleased with the outcome & would thoroughly recommend.

Geoff Haigh

Excellent workmanship. Professional, on time. Easy to deal with.

Lucy Fisher

Great communication, good attention to detail. We were so impressed. Our new ensuite looks amazing!

 

Matt Lyons

Attention to detail. Great finish. Highly recommend these guys!

 

Cameron

Roland from Armrock constructions has completed a few projects for our company and is always a pleasure to deal with. Always reliable, not like some tradies we have chosen in the past. Quality is something Roland strives for and it shows in his work. Would recommend to anyone.

 

Keith Munday

Very pleased with a very professional job completed by Roland and his team. Roland never failed to turn up when expected or respond to a message if he was unable to take a call. He was also helpful and patient while we changed our minds repeatedly about what we wanted. We’re getting him back to do the kids bathroom!

 

Al Dobie

Roland and his team were fantastic. The work was done on time and of a very high standard. Cheers Roland.

Terry Christo

We had the pleasure of dealing with Roland and his team. They are professional courteous clean and most importantly excellent communicators during the process. Their workmanship and pride in achieving an excellent result is a breath of fresh air when dealing with trades people. I highly recommend them.

Joel Boniwell

The moment I contacted the owner Roland I was at ease with proceeding with this company. Not only does he come across as a genuine person, he is punctual and sticks to his word. He had everything organised and the renovation of my en-suite went exactly as planned and the quote was spot on. The tradesman he organised for the job are all extremely punctual and extremely qualified at their specific trades. I can’t give this company a stronger recommendation and will be sure to use Roland and his team for any future renovations. A+ Service in an industry that you will seldom find it in.

Shayna Kivlins

Highly recommend your company to anyone wanting an amazing and highly professional job done your attention to detail with our kitchen was 120% you were very helpful in all aspects from start to finish and the end product exceeded my expectations. You are a very talented guy and I can’t thank you, Luke the sparkie and Chris the plumber enough for making my kitchen dream come to life.

 

Reiner Ebenhoch

Armrock Constructions did our powder room first. We were so impressed with their work that we contracted Armrock to do a minor reno to our master bathroom and a major renovation of our guest bath room, which also included the complete rebuilt and conversion of one room into a steam room. Again, Armrock did an excellent job! What sets Roland and his team apart is their customer focus, their uncompromising attitude to quality, integrity and customer satisfaction. We can recommend Roland and his team unconditionally and have so already to many of our friends!

Cameron Grant Ruksenas

Great service from the owner Roland. Nothing was a problem and service and price was reasonable! Will recommend to others.

 

Andrew Watkins

Roland and his team were very professional and affordable. We had two bathrooms and a laundry renovated by Armrock Constructions and we couldn’t be happier. Would definitely recommend them.
