Supplying your own bathroom fixtures: how it works

Tue, 27 Oct 2026 20:36:47 GMT

For most JTM bathroom renovations, you choose and buy your own fixtures and we take care of everything else. Here's how that works, and why it suits most homeowners.

What "owner supply" means

Before work starts, we give you a list of exactly which fixtures your new bathroom needs, such as taps and tiles. You choose and buy them, and we ask for everything to be on site when work begins.

Why we do it this way

It keeps you in control of the look and the budget. You pick the finishes you want, at a price you're comfortable with. If you change your mind or decide on a higher-end fitting than quoted, it's simple to swap, with far less paperwork.

What we look after

Everything else. JTM manages the whole project, including the plumber, electrician and waterproofer, and their work is included in your fixed price contract. You deal direct with John, the builder, from the first visit to the finished room.

Our step-by-step guide

Before work starts, every client receives our step-by-step guide. It covers health and safety, protecting your home from damage, and what to expect along the way.

Prefer not to shop around?

We also offer a full bathroom package with all fixtures and trades included under the one contract. It's popular with landlords renovating rental properties who don't want to source fixtures themselves.

What to expect during a bathroom renovation

Thinking about a new bathroom but not sure how the process works? Here's what happens on a JTM bathroom renovation, from the first phone call to handover.

1. Free on-site consultation

Once you get in touch, John contacts you directly to book a time that suits. He looks at the bathroom with you and talks through what you'd like done.

2. Fixed price quote and contract

You receive a clear, fixed price contract that includes all trades and your fixture list, so you know the cost before work starts.

3. Fixtures on site

For most jobs, you choose and supply your own fixtures from our list, and we ask for them to be on site when work begins. If you'd rather not shop around, ask about our full bathroom package.

4. The renovation

A standard bathroom typically takes around 3 weeks from contract signing. Larger or more complex bathrooms can take longer, and we'll give you a clear idea at the consultation. JTM manages every trade, including the plumber, electrician and waterproofer, and you'll hear from us every day while work is underway.

5. Handover

Your new bathroom is backed by our 7-year warranty on all structural and waterproofing work. JTM is a fully QBCC-licensed builder (Lic No. 1316851) and fully insured.
