Alcove bathroom renovations are exactly as they sound, they all have a shower space that has three walls and one screen with a pivot door that is located at the front of the alcove.
This bathroom layout is often really when the original building of the home needed space in the laundry or a linen cupboard so they make the bathroom smaller width-wise and stick in this shower alcove.
This before-and-after series is to highlight the many types of bathroom layouts and helps with ideas on what your new bathroom can become.
TWO TYPES of alcove showers are the wall to wall screen and the newer concept of small fixed panels

I love the touch of color but it is not for everyone. The owner of this Ascot renovation went back and forth on the blue feature wall but I think the decision on the plain white tiles gives the vanity and floor a real pop

Bathroom renovations are what you make them be. Some clients we have will have no idea what they want and some like the below bathroom know exactly what they want.
Extra Info
- Frameless shower screens are amazing to look at but don’t always offer the best protection against retaining water which is important to always remember. Yes, that is a Forrest in the window. It is a custom-made window that has an image imprinted into the window and backlit

Churchlands Bathroom Renovation
For this Alcove bathroom renovation, the client did not want a light-up mirror which is what we suggest for the best face lighting you can get unless you have space for the right-side wall lights.
Extra Info
- Terrazzo is a beautiful bathroom floor tile that is so popular we can not find enough in Perth for everyone’s bathroom renovations.
Bathroom Renovation Parkwood
All white bathrooms are at least something that looks clean! You can see this alcove bathroom transformation in Parkwood and the difference it makes not only tiling full height but the light bathroom tiling floor to ceiling makes it look so much bigger

Bathroom Renovation Lesmurdie
Not the best before image it is hard to gauge how much work went into this Lesmurdie bathroom renovation. The real star though is the nib wall between the vanity and shower area.
Extra Info
- Tiling feature tiles vertically they add a sense of height to the room through the lines.
Bathroom Renovation Willetton
Try to never let items you can change dictate your bathroom renovation experience. Often clients will get caught up trying to match a wood frame or a ceiling fixture. If you really do not want to have to have beige or brown because the frames are brown then just paint them it will make your life so much easier trust me.
Extra Info
- Tiling floor to ceiling in the same time can make a room feel large as there is no break between the floor and walls.
