Renovation of three bathrooms in a four-story Auckland City apartment, featuring a challenging en-suite installation with a 170 kg stone bath, completed through effective project management and collaboration with Nicola Manning Design.

This project was an Auckland City Apartment of which was four stories and we undertook the renovation of three bathrooms. We were engaged by Nicola Manning Design to undertake project management and construction. 

The biggest challenge in this renovation was the en-suite at on the fourth floor. The design included a stone bath which was 170 kilos. We had to create more bracing in the floor to ensure the bath was safe when it was full and had a person in it. 

From the beginning, we worked closely with everyone including our client to ensure they were aware of the work and materials needed to ensure this bath was safely installed. Due to early communication and our problem-solving around how to brace the floor, the project still ran smoothly and did not affect the timeline. Despite this being a minor variation for our clients, our early communication around costs and options created an easy stress-free decision making process for our clients, which is what we aim for in every single project. 

The bath took four members of our team to carry the bath to the top story and was completed over an hour and a half due to the tight space in the apartment. 

We are very proud to have completed this project through the Build Collective subtrades.

“Hi, we are Lee and Jeff. We choose the end of 2019 to start our renovation. Before that there was at least a year of preparation with our builder and architect. We had seen Macreadies building on our street. We approached the homeowner and they were very happy to recommend Macreadies. We approached Macreadies and spoke to Joel Macreadie. After two years of knowing Joel we can say he is a warm, enthusiastic and talented builder and person. His communication skills are solid and he had/has a great team of builders who come with various skills and who are suited to a variety of projects. We understood from the beginning, that renovations are never straight forwarded and come with many complications. Joel and his team were always an intricate part of resolving challenges. Covid was a challenge! We all went the extra mile when it came to Covid and are thankful for having had Macreadies on our team. We enjoy our house every day and thank Macreadies for being the professionals they are.”
