Pacific Edge Homes is a Melbourne-based renovation company. We plan and manage kitchen, bathroom and laundry renovations, and our team also takes on timber flooring, tiling, carpet installation and waterproofing. Detailed case studies of our own projects are being prepared for this page.
Melbourne renovation projects, managed by one team
Our team brings 30 years of industry experience to every project, and we have been in business as Pacific Edge Homes for 10 years.
On a renovation project, one team looks after the design, the trades and the project management, so you always know who to call. We work across Melbourne and surrounding parts of Victoria, from single-room updates to projects that cover more than one room.
This page is where our project case studies will live. Until they are published, it explains what a renovation project involves, the types of work we take on and how to plan your own. You can read more about Pacific Edge Homes or see the areas we service.
What a renovation project usually involves
Every home is different, but most kitchen, bathroom and laundry renovations move through the same stages. This is a general overview of the process, not a description of a particular job.
01
Understanding the existing space
Measuring the room and looking at what is already there: plumbing and drainage points, electrical, walls and floors, and anything that limits what can move.
02
Planning the renovation
Agreeing what the room needs to do, then working through the layout, the scope of work and what will change and what will stay.
03
Selecting finishes and materials
Choosing cabinetry, benchtops, tiles, flooring, fixtures and fittings that suit the room, how it is used and the budget.
04
Coordinating the trades
Scheduling the trades in the right order, so work such as plumbing, electrical, waterproofing and tiling happens in sequence.
05
Managing the work on site
Keeping the job on track day to day, checking quality as each stage is finished and keeping the homeowner informed.
06
Completing the finishing details
Sealing, trims, silicone, hardware and fit-off: the small details that decide how finished a room looks and how well it lasts.
07
Final handover
Walking through the finished room with the homeowner and checking that everything has been completed as agreed.

How to plan a renovation project
A little planning before you ask for a quote makes the whole project easier. These steps apply whether you are renovating a kitchen, a bathroom, a laundry or replacing a floor.
1. Define the renovation scope
Start with which rooms or areas need work, and whether it is one room, several rooms or a specialist job such as new flooring or retiling.
2. Decide your priorities
Think about what matters most: how the room functions, storage, the layout, the finishes, and practical needs such as cleaning, access or a growing family.
3. Understand the work involved
Different renovations involve different trades and requirements. A bathroom, for example, usually involves plumbing, electrical, waterproofing and tiling in a set order, while a timber floor depends on the condition of the subfloor.
4. Plan materials and finishes
Flooring, tiling, cabinetry, benchtops, fixtures and fittings all affect how the room looks, how it wears and what the work involves, so it helps to consider them early.
5. Talk the project through
Before requesting a quote, it helps to explain what you want to change, what is not working now and where the property is. That makes the first conversation much more useful.
