These are the two rooms that decide what a property in Roodepoort is worth, which is why we treat them as a single coordinated contract rather than a cupboard supplier plus a plumber plus a tiler who never meet.
Known for Johannesburg’s west — a large spread of family suburbs, hillside estates and business parks running from Florida out to the Kloof and Ruimsig belt, Roodepoort keeps our teams busy across every kind of project, from a single bathroom to a full build.
Because Roodepoort sits within City of Johannesburg, the approval route, the building-line rules and the occupancy certificate all run through them. We manage that submission as part of the contract rather than leaving you to chase it.
Kitchen & Bathroom Upgrades services we provide in Roodepoort
Layout & design
Practical replanning around how the room is actually used, and around where the services can realistically go.
Strip-out & preparation
Careful removal, protection of the rest of the house, and proper disposal rather than a skip on the pavement for a month.
Plumbing & drainage
Moving supply and waste where the new layout needs it, in pipe sized and installed to last, not the shortest route.
Waterproofing
Showers and wet areas correctly tanked before tiling. This is the single most common failure in a bathroom, and it is invisible once the tiles are on.
Tiling & surfaces
Floors, walls, splashbacks and niches, set out so the cuts land where they should.
Cupboards & tops
Kitchen and vanity cabinetry, engineered stone or laminate tops, templated and fitted properly.
Sanitaryware & fittings
Baths, showers, basins, toilets, taps and mixers installed and tested.
Finishing & making good
Ceilings, cornices, paint and the making-good around the edges that separates a finished room from a nearly finished one.
What we see in Roodepoort
Complexes, clusters and estates
Cluster and estate living is a defining feature of Roodepoort, and it changes how building work has to be run. Estates have their own building rules, approved contractor lists, working hours and levies, and the body corporate usually has to approve the alteration before the municipality ever sees it. We are used to working inside those rules rather than discovering them at the gate.
Deadlines that do not move
A retail or office space in Roodepoort has an opening date and a rent clock, and neither of them cares about weather or a late supplier. We programme backwards from the date, order early, and tell you at quote stage if the date is not realistic.
Do you need plans for this?
It is the first question worth answering on any renovation in Roodepoort, because it changes both the cost and the timeline. The honest answer depends on what you are actually doing.
Plans needed
Anything structural or anything that changes the building: extensions, second storeys, removing load-bearing walls, new or enlarged openings in external walls, carports and covered patios, second dwellings, and changes to the roof. Approval comes from City of Johannesburg.
Usually no plans needed
Replacing a kitchen or bathroom in the same layout, new finishes, flooring, painting, re-roofing like for like, and internal non-structural partitions. Moving plumbing within a room is generally fine; moving a wall is not.
An engineer, not an opinion
Removing a load-bearing wall needs a designed beam, not a guess. We bring in an engineer where the structure requires it and install the temporary support before anything comes out — which is how ceilings stay uncracked and doors keep closing.
Estates and complexes
In a complex or estate, the body corporate or homeowners association usually has to approve the alteration before the municipality ever sees it, and there will be rules about hours, access and approved contractors. We deal with that process as a matter of routine.
The NHBRC warranty scheme is built around new homes, so most renovations are not enrolled. On a renovation your protection is the contract, a properly defined scope, and a builder who stands behind the work in writing.

Kitchen & Bathroom Upgrades in Roodepoort — your questions answered
How long does a kitchen take in Roodepoort?
A straight replacement is usually a couple of weeks on site. A replan that moves plumbing, walls or windows takes longer. The bigger variable is lead time on cupboards and tops — which is why we order those before we demolish anything.
Can I use the kitchen while you work?
Not the kitchen itself, but we set up a temporary arrangement for a kettle, a fridge and a microwave, and we work to get the room back to you quickly rather than leaving it stripped for weeks.
What does a bathroom renovation cost?
It depends almost entirely on whether the plumbing moves and what sanitaryware and tiling you choose. A like-for-like refit is a very different number from a replan. We price your room rather than quoting an average.
Why does waterproofing matter so much?
Because a shower that was not properly tanked will eventually wet the wall behind it, and by the time you see the damp, the repair means removing the tiles you just paid for. It is the cheapest part of the job to do right and the most expensive to redo.
Do you supply the cupboards and tops?
Yes, or we fit yours. We work with cabinet makers and stone suppliers we trust, and we template on site rather than from drawings, so what arrives fits.
What about the electrical side?
Plug points, lighting, extractors and stove connections are handled by Sirius Bright, our electrical arm, who issue the Certificate of Compliance for that work — so the paperwork is done properly rather than promised.
