Home Renovations Lorne
When a renovation is a couple of hours from Melbourne, it pays to do it once and do it properly. Pacific Edge Homes takes on selected kitchen, bathroom and laundry renovations in Lorne, and we help you decide which rooms are worth tackling together.
Planning a Lorne renovation from a distance
Lorne is on Louttit Bay at the mouth of the Erskine River, about 65 kilometres south-west of Geelong on the Great Ocean Road, and is part of the Surf Coast Shire. Every trip our trades make here is a significant one, so we aim to group the work: if the bathroom and laundry both need attention, doing them in the same block of time usually makes more sense than two separate visits.
Good information early saves a lot of back and forth. Photos of each room, a rough floor plan and a list of what bothers you about the space let us discuss options before the site visit. Sea air and damp are part of life on this stretch of coast, so ventilation and finishes for the wet areas are on the list from the first conversation.

How a regional renovation runs
For a town as far along the coast as Lorne, most decisions are made before work starts. This is the order we follow.
- Call or send photos. Tell us about the room and send photos so we can discuss scope and rough options.
- Site visit. We arrange a visit to measure, check the existing services and confirm what is involved.
- Written quote. You receive a written quote that sets out what is included before anything is booked.
- Planned site work. Trades are scheduled in sequence, and materials are confirmed ahead of time.
- Handover. We walk through the finished work with you and explain care of new finishes.
One Melbourne team, start to finish
Our team has 30 years of combined experience, and Pacific Edge Homes has been in business for 10 years, with 1,000 completed projects. The same team manages your renovation from the first conversation to the final handover. More about us

Renovating in Lorne: common questions
Can Pacific Edge Homes renovate my home in Lorne?
We take on selected projects in Lorne. Get in touch with a short description of the work so we can confirm whether it suits our schedule.
Is it cheaper to renovate two rooms at once?
It can be, because travel, set-up and some trades are shared across both rooms. We can quote the rooms separately and together so you can compare. Our laundry renovation page explains what is usually involved.
My house was built decades ago. Should I worry about asbestos?
Homes built before 1990 may contain asbestos in places such as wet-area wall sheeting, eaves and older floor coverings. Asbestos Victoria explains how to find and identify it, and testing before demolition is a sensible step.
Can you replace old carpet with timber flooring?
Yes. Timber flooring can be quoted on its own. We check the subfloor and door heights first so the new floor sits correctly.
Do I need a permit for a bathroom or kitchen renovation?
Not always. The Building and Plumbing Commission describes when a building permit is required, and we will raise it if your plans involve work that is likely to need one.
