To help you get the right numbers for your renovation budget, here is a quick overview of how much some standard bathroom accessories set and fittings cost.

How Much Do Bathroom Accessories & Appliances Cost
*Disclaimer
- depending on when you read this informative blog and what the economy is
doing, pricing does vary. Always give us a call and we can see what we can do. That
said we still wanted to give you some good information on the average prices of
common bathroom accessories sets:
- Cabinets & Vanity Units
If you have a large
bathroom, it stands to reason you may have a lot of toiletries and bath
products to store. If you have adult children, they may like to leave their bathroom
products around the sink or by the side of the tub (we’re generalising😊). It’s not a good
look and that's why one of the first things you need to get for your bathroom
is a cabinet or a freestanding vanity unit.
If you have a small
bathroom and running short on floor space, wall-mounted cabinets are a great way to keep your bathroom organised without cramming
bathroom space.
On the other hand,
if you are looking for something a little more elegant and a centre piece, go
for a freestanding vanity unit. You can also embed the sink within the vanity unit to save that space.
Price
Range: $199 (small) to $5000 (centre piece).
2.
Basins
& Mixers
The next important
accessory for your bathroom are the basin and mixers. As discussed above you
can either embed the basin in the vanity unit or create a separate stand. We
offer above-counter basins, drop-in basins, half-inset basins, under-mount basins and semi-recessed basins. You will find them in shades of white, black or clear glass with both
glossy or matte finish.
Price: $169 to $855
Now, if you have a
basin, you will need mixers. Our diverse range of bathroom mixers
includes freestanding mixers, tower mixers and mixers designed especially for your shower and bath.
Our mixers are made from high-quality, corrosion-resistant materials and can
last at least 12 to 20 years.
Pricing: $95 to $1600+
3.
Showers
& Bathtubs
Next on the list is
the shower and bathtub. Unlike the other accessories on the list, setting up
your shower or bathtub area in your bathroom requires a few more items. For
starters, you will need a shower/bath screen, the showerhead or for the bathtub, a shower base with a
mixer connected to the hot water system.
After this consider
a bathroom mirror and a towel rail to hang the dry towels while you take a bath or a
shower.
For bathtubs we
have an amazing range, you can choose between freestanding baths, corner baths, oval/rectangular baths and claw foot baths. Available in shades of white, black and burgundy (limited
products). Our bathroom and plumbing supply store is filled with reputed
Australian and International brands like Kingsley, Bosch and Alpine.
Price: $330 to $4300+
You can choose
between rectangular and corner units with framed and frameless options for
the shower unit.
Price: $1300 to $2700+
4.
Toilets
Will your toilet be
inside the bathroom or have a separate WC? In our collection, you will find elegant toilet suites for modern homes. In addition we
offer a few extra colour options and classic whites to ensure it matches your
overall bathroom theme.
Popular in Europe
and still selling in Perth are bidet’s! Not just for your grandparents
bathroom, at Budget Plumbing we have a range of Bidet’s Perth, we also have a
few bidet toilet seats we can even attach a mixer.
Colour options are classic and glossy white.
Price: $375 to $3200+
5.
Hot Water
Systems
Let's discuss the
most important bathroom appliance — a hot water system. After all, bathing can
never truly be comfortable unless you have a constant flow of pleasantly warm
water from your instant hot water system.
At our store, we
offer both electric and instant gas hot
water systems. You can use a small 10-litre water heater if you live alone or have
a small family. For bigger families that need warm water all day long, we also
have bigger units of 25 litres, 30 litres, 50 litres and so on.
If you want
something a little more special with energy efficiency, check out the new Bosch
heat pump.
The best way to describe the process for heating the water is like an
air conditioner. So efficient its eligible for government rebates (you will need
to check this is still applicable) and works in with PV solar systems – your
bathroom and energy
bill will love you.
Pricing: $479 to $3200+
Bottom Line
With these 5
bathroom appliances and accessories, you will be able to calculate a rough cost
guide for your bathroom. After that, you will also have to invest in Perth
trades for flooring, wall paint etc
