Have You Planned Your Plumbing?
Renovating a bathroom, kitchen or laundry is an exciting process, but it's also one where the plumbing decisions you make early on can have a significant impact on the finished result. Too often, plumbing is treated as an afterthought in a renovation, and that's when costly problems tend to surface.
At Hinch Plumbing, we work closely with homeowners across Geelong from the early planning stages through to completion, making sure the plumbing side of your renovation is mapped out properly before any walls come down or tiles go up. We coordinate with other trades on site, work to your build schedule and communicate clearly throughout the process so there are no surprises. Whether you're doing a full gut renovation or a straightforward fixture upgrade, having a reliable plumber involved from the start makes the whole job run more smoothly.

Frequently Asked Questions
Do I need a plumber for a bathroom renovation?
Yes. Any work that involves modifying, extending or relocating water supply or drainage lines must be carried out by a licensed plumber. This includes moving a toilet, repositioning a shower or basin, installing a new bath or upgrading to a wall-hung vanity with concealed plumbing. Even if the visible work appears straightforward, the plumbing behind the walls and under the floor needs to be done correctly and to code to ensure it functions properly and passes any required inspections.
How far in advance should I book a plumber for a renovation?
Engage your plumber as early as possible, ideally before finalising your layout or ordering fixtures. Getting them involved early helps confirm what's achievable, avoids costly changes later and ensures your fixtures are compatible with your existing plumbing. During busy periods, booking several weeks in advance is advisable to secure availability when your project needs them.
Can plumbing be moved during a renovation?
Yes, plumbing can be relocated but the complexity depends on how far things are moving. Shifting a toilet requires rerouting waste pipes, which may involve opening floors or walls. Relocating a shower or basin is generally more straightforward. A licensed plumber can assess your setup and outline what's involved before any work begins.
Do you handle full plumbing for bathroom and kitchen renovations?
Yes. We provide complete renovation plumbing, including new pipework, fixture relocation, drainage upgrades, and final fit offs. If you are renovating a bathroom, kitchen, or laundry, we make sure all plumbing meets current Victorian standards and works efficiently long term.
Can you work with my builder or designer during the renovation?
Absolutely. We regularly work alongside builders, tilers, electricians, and designers to ensure plumbing layouts match the renovation plan. Early coordination helps avoid costly changes later and keeps the project running smoothly.
Will renovation plumbing require council approvals?
Some renovation plumbing work may require compliance certificates or permits, especially if plumbing layouts are changed. As licensed plumbers, we handle all required documentation and ensure the work is fully compliant.
Can old pipes be replaced during a renovation?
Yes, and it’s often recommended. Renovations are the best time to replace ageing or damaged pipes to prevent future leaks or water pressure issues. We assess your existing plumbing and advise if upgrades are needed.
How early should a plumber be involved in a renovation project?
Ideally at the planning stage. Early involvement allows us to design efficient pipe layouts, confirm fixture locations, and prevent delays once construction starts.
