Home Renovations Anglesea
An older house on the coast often carries a few layers of earlier work, especially in the wet areas. Pacific Edge Homes takes on selected kitchen, bathroom and laundry renovations in Anglesea, and we look closely at what previous jobs have left behind before we plan the new room.
Updating older Anglesea houses
Anglesea is one of the first towns along the Great Ocean Road west of Torquay, with the Anglesea River running through it to the sea, and it sits within the Surf Coast Shire. Being right on the coast, bathrooms and laundries here deal with damp air as well as sandy feet and wet gear, so ventilation and durable floor finishes matter.
In a house that has been extended or patched more than once, the wet areas are often where problems collect: tiles laid over old tiles, a shower without a proper membrane, or a laundry squeezed into a former porch. If the house dates from before 1990, some wall linings or floor coverings may contain asbestos, so testing before anything is pulled out is a sensible first step.

Renovating in Anglesea: common questions
Do you work in Anglesea?
We take on selected projects in Anglesea. Contact us to confirm availability and talk through what you have in mind.
The previous owner tiled over the old bathroom. Is that a problem?
It can be. Tiling over tiles can hide a failed membrane and adds height at the floor waste. We usually recommend stripping back so the waterproofing can be done properly.
How do I know if there is asbestos in my house?
You cannot tell by looking. If the home was built before 1990, have suspect materials tested before demolition. Asbestos Victoria has a guide to finding and identifying asbestos.
Which floor suits a beach house laundry or entry?
Tiles handle water and sand well and are easy to clean. We can quote tiling on its own or as part of a laundry renovation.
Is a building permit needed for my renovation?
It depends on the scope of work. The Building and Plumbing Commission explains when a permit is required, and we will let you know early if your project is likely to need one.
