Georgia and her partner had just bought their first place, which required a complete bathroom overhaul due to its unrealistic layout. They initially hired a family friend builder, but soon faced a series of avoidable errors and missteps, including improper waterproofing, incorrect piping, and faulty tiling. Despite these setbacks, Georgia and her partner managed to turn things around with a new project team. Her story emphasises the importance of choosing the right tradespeople, planning thoroughly, and finding reliable resources for guidance. </p> <h4 data-pm-slice="1 3 []">Resources</h4> <ul> <li class="p1">Bathroom Measurements Cheat Sheet: <a href= "https://www.australianbuildstories.com/bathroom-renovation-guide">https://www.australianbuildstories.com/bathroom-renovation-guide</a></li> <li class="p1">Reece Bathroom Renovation Guide (love this): <a href="https://www.reece.com.au/bathrooms/bathroom-renovation-guide"> https://www.reece.com.au/bathrooms/bathroom-renovation-guide</a></li> </ul> <h4 data-pm-slice="1 3 []">Georgia</h4> <ul> <li class="p1">Socials <a href= "https://www.instagram.com/okwithmyhands/">https://www.instagram.com/okwithmyhands/</a></li> <li class="p1">Georgia Bathroom Vlog <a href= "https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ChRNTXPnH98">https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ChRNTXPnH98</a></li> </ul> <p>Read the full show notes at <a href= "https://www.australianbuildstories.com/podcast/ep-007">https://www.australianbuildstories.com/podcast/ep-007</a></p> <p><strong>Disclaimer</strong>: All content is for general informational purposes only and should not be relied upon as professional advice.
