Theo & Anna – Malvern East, VIC
“It is only possible to accept a job like this, when you can rely on the suppliers and trades to step up and support you” – Ian, Builder
| Project Type | Conversion of en-suite into accessible bathroom, in 1930s bungalow home. |
| Requirements | Speed – Works started 9 December, needing to complete before Christmas, so the elderly owner could return to live at home after period in local nursing home. Aesthetically attractive. |
| Why Fibo? | Speed and warranty. Traditional tile look. |
| Fibo Products | Denver White with 6030 tile design. |
| Outcome | Minimal demolition, minimal chasing into brick walls. Fibo installed in two days over battened out walls. Quick rough-in and very fast fit off. Smart looking accessible bathroom. |
| Comments | The en-suite had not been updated in more than 50 years; all the walls were bulging and out of square. It was simply not possible to undertake a full demolition and retile the walls in time available. I had used Fibo previously and knew I could finish the work in time because there was less prep work, and I didn’t need a tiler. The Australian Fibo distributor, helped by preparing a batten layout to improve installation efficiency. Theo returned to live at his home on Christmas Eve and enjoyed Christmas day with his family. |
