Modern and Watertight Bathroom and Toilet

After reaching out to Refresh Renovations, this Raumanga homeowner was connected with Renovation Consultant Shamrose Chaudhry. She had unfortunate experiences previously with other contractors so Shamrose immediately put her mind at ease explaining the 5-step Refresh process. 

Her shower had been leaking which caused excessive water damage. All the flooring needed to be ripped out in addition to some walls and door frames, so the homeowner took this opportunity to redo both her bathroom and toilet. She ended up with two modern and perfectly functional spaces and she was very happy with the result.
