What full home renovation looks like

A full home renovation is more than cosmetic. We look at layout, insulation, windows, wiring, bathrooms and kitchens together so the whole home works better, not just one room.

FAQs

Got questions? We've answered the most common ones here.

Do you project manage the whole renovation?

Yes. Bay Construction runs your full home renovation end to end, from design and consent through to trades, fit-out and final clean. You have one point of contact and one fixed-price contract, so you are not chasing separate builders, plumbers and electricians yourself.

Is it better to extend my home or build new in Whakatāne?

If your site suits it, extending is often more affordable than a full new build and lets you stay in the neighbourhood you love. Bay Construction offers feasibility chats across Whakatāne, Ōhope, and the Eastern Bay, weighing up costs, council rules, and long-term value to help you make the right call.

Can I live in my home during a renovation?

Yes, most partial renovations such as kitchens, bathrooms, or single-room extensions can be done while you stay in your home. Bay Construction plans the programme, protects living areas with dust barriers, and schedules the noisiest work to minimise disruption. For full-home renovations it is usually easier to move out.

How much does a home renovation cost in the Eastern Bay of Plenty?

Bathroom renovations in the Eastern Bay typically start from around $20,000, kitchens from $25,000, and full home renovations from $150,000 depending on finishes and layout changes. Bay Construction provides detailed pricing after an on-site visit so there are no surprises during the build.

Do I need council consent for a renovation in Whakatāne?

Most structural renovations, plumbing changes, and kitchen or bathroom remodels involving waterproofing need a building consent from your local council. Cosmetic updates usually do not. Bay Construction manages the consent process for you so you know exactly what is required before work begins.
