The team at Nutrend are dedicated to delivering an exceptional product. They take the time upfront to work through all design elements, physically mark out all items to resolve any coordination issues and improvement opportunities. This phase is so helpful to make sure there aren’t problems during the build, at which point changes are more costly.
Their site set up was very professional and they maintained a clean work area, continually tidying up after their team and trades.
They do go above and beyond to ensure the best possible finish and do not cut corners.
I am thrilled with the end result and would happily recommend the team.

Getting new plumbing installed for a home being built or renovated
Nu Trend was contracted as a bathroom plumbing renovator in the suburb of Peakhurst, Sydney to install all the new plumbing needed for this new home build. The Client was building a new house and needed all the plumbing installed to service the bathrooms, laundry, kitchen and the butler pantry.
This was a brand new house build so it meant all the plumbing requirements had to be planned prior to the build process starting. Apart from all the internal design features it was great to see the Client opting to install water saving items like the external rain water tanks that our plumbers also installed.

What products were installed in the new bathroom?
Most of the products were sourced from Aquaperla using a number of items from the WaterMark range. This included a great looking free standing bath tub and a few of the other highlights were;
WaterMark Black Freestanding Bath Mixer With Hand held Shower Item #: OX0117.BS
A bath spout with a unique design that is attached to the floor making it a perfect pairing to a free standing bath. The spout arm is 255mm in length allowing plenty of reach. The handheld device allows for easy washing of hair and cleaning of the whole bath with great control over the direction of the water. The floor mounted spout lets you put it anywhere next to the bath, while at the same time your walls can remain clutter free.
Watermark 8 inch Square Black Shower Station Top Water Inlet
This Square Slim Shower Set with Handheld Spray Head is made of solid brass with matte black finish and complimented the simple classic look of the rooms perfectly. The 360 degree swivel ball joint of the top head adjusts, the mesh filter inside the shower head blocks debris in the water, it is easy to clean with mild soap and the built-in diverter lets you easily switch between top shower head and hand held shower.
Watermark Black Tall Basin Mixer
A touch of luxury is added to the rooms with these matte black basin mixers with a straight edge design that gives each bathroom a modern finish that won’t age with time. They sit separate from the basin making the area easier to keep clean and later if you decide to change your basins it is an easy process to complete.
Inspire 600mm Oval Basin
The bathroom basins came from Inspire and were finished in a gloss white fine ceramic glazing with really simple, seamless design that wasn’t too fussy while being extremely easy to clean with their simple, smooth lines.
How hard is it to plan your bathroom plumbing?
Planning a plumbing layout for a new house involves thinking strategically about current and future needs, efficiency, and adhering to regulations.
- Needs: How many bathrooms will you need? Do you plan for a bathtub, shower, or both? Think about laundry room location, kitchen features (dishwasher, sink?), and outdoor hose taps as all of these will need a water supply line and also drainage lines.
- Centralise plumbing locations:
Grouping fixtures together (bathrooms, kitchen, laundry) reduces pipe length needed and simplifies future maintenance. Locate the hot water heater and sewer connection point strategically – ideally near each other if its possible. - Shared wet room walls: A “wet wall” is a section of a wall that houses drains, vents, and supply lines for multiple fixtures. Sharing a wall between bathrooms or a bathroom and laundry room minimises the number of walls that need plumbing and reduces overall costs.
- Seek Professional Input:
Consult a licensed plumber early in the planning stage. Our expertise is invaluable in ensuring your layout is functional, adheres to building codes, and considers future needs.
We can advise on optimal placement of fixtures, pipe sizing, and material selection - Don’t forget about permits & standards: Your plumber can help you navigate the permit process to ensure your plumbing layout complies with local building codes and Australian Standards. By following these steps and collaborating with a qualified plumber, you can design a well-planned and efficient plumbing system for your new home that meets your needs and avoids future headaches.

Interior design ideas used for this new bathroom construction in Peakhurst, Sydney
Freestanding bath
A lot of older homes will have a back to wall bath or even a combo bath / shower. These old fashion designs have been replaced with the use of a free standing bath tub which looks more elegant and they can be placed in the middle of a room, in a corner or near a wall very easily. They are typically deeper and more comfortable to soak in as well.
Floor mounted bath tap
A unique design feature is to compliment a free standing bath tub with a floor mounted tap. Taps for free standing bath tubs could be installed in the wall but by using a floor mounted one it becomes a design feature in the bathroom. With a swivel mounted head it can be moved out of the way to use the bath freely.
Wall niche
Most of the modern bathrooms that we build in Sydney have a wall niche. This is custom made to create a shelf in the bathroom to store soap or hair care products. This is a practical addition to any bathroom that removes the need to have stand alone hanging racks or putting products on the floor.
