Renovation specialists for Norwood's character homes
Norwood is one of Adelaide's most sought-after inner-eastern suburbs — and its housing tells the story. Bluestone-fronted villas, symmetrical cottages and grand terraces sit on tight blocks a short walk from The Parade. They're beautiful homes, but the bathrooms, kitchens and laundries inside them were often laid out for a very different era, with plumbing to match.
That's exactly the work Spriggs & Co. do best. We're licensed plumbers first (Licence No. 284188) and renovators second, so when we open up a wall in a 5067 character home and find perished galvanised pipe or an old clay drain, it's not a nasty surprise — it's part of the job we've quoted for. Our interior designer Hayley plans layouts and finishes that respect the age of the house, and the whole project runs through one point of contact.

What renovating in Norwood actually involves
Older pipework, done properly
Many Norwood homes still run on galvanised supply lines and earthenware drains. We replace and re-route them to current standards while the walls and floors are open — the right time to do it once.
Heritage character, modern function
High ceilings, picture rails and original floors deserve finishes that suit them. Hayley designs bathrooms and kitchens that feel at home in a period house rather than fighting it.
Tight sites and terrace access
Narrow frontages, rear laneways and shared walls near The Parade need a team that plans access, protection and staging carefully — we keep the site tidy and the neighbours onside.

Bathroom renovations in Norwood
In a Norwood villa or cottage the bathroom is often the room that has aged worst. It may sit in a rear lean-to added long after the house was built, with a shower over the bath, tired tiles and waterproofing that is well past its best.
A bathroom renovation in Norwood with Spriggs & Co. covers the whole job. Hayley plans the layout and selections with you, our licensed plumbers re-run the pipework and drainage, and the room is waterproofed to Australian Standards, then tiled and fitted off. Most complete bathroom renovations take around 3–4 weeks on site once demolition starts. We also rebuild just the shower, renovate ensuites and powder rooms, and turn an old bath into a walk-in shower.
Bathroom & ensuite renovations
Full strip-out and rebuild, shower-only rebuilds, ensuites and small bathrooms, with layouts planned around older rooms and finishes chosen to suit a period home.
Kitchen renovations in Norwood
Cabinetry, stone benchtops, splashbacks and the sink, dishwasher and gas cooktop connections, coordinated by one team. Most kitchens take around 3–5 weeks on site.

Renovating in Norwood — your questions answered
Do you renovate character and heritage homes around Norwood?
Yes — it's a big part of what we do in the 5067 area. Norwood's villas, cottages and terraces need a team that understands older construction, and our licensed plumbers and designer Hayley work together to modernise the bathroom, kitchen or laundry while respecting the home's period character.
Our Norwood home still has old galvanised pipes — can you replace them during the renovation?
Absolutely, and a renovation is the ideal time. While walls and floors are open we can replace perished galvanised supply lines and old drainage, re-route pipework for a better layout, and bring everything up to current Australian Standards — all done in-house by licensed plumbers, not subcontracted out.
How do you manage access and parking on tight Norwood streets?
We plan access, skip placement, material deliveries and floor protection before we start, which matters on narrow frontages and terrace rows near The Parade. We keep the work zone contained, clean up daily, and are mindful of neighbours and shared walls.
Which inner-eastern suburbs do you cover besides Norwood?
We work across greater Adelaide. If you're in or near the inner east, just ask and we'll confirm we cover your street.
How long does a bathroom renovation in Norwood take?
Most complete bathroom renovations take around 3–4 weeks on site once demolition starts, depending on the size of the room, the tiling and any custom joinery. In an older Norwood home we allow for what turns up behind the old tiles, such as old pipework, and give you a realistic timeline before work begins.
How much does a bathroom renovation in Norwood cost?
We quote every bathroom individually after we've seen it, so we don't publish a fixed price. The size of the room, whether fixtures move, the tiles and tapware you choose and the condition of the pipework all change the number. You'll get a clear, itemised quote up front, and our bathroom renovation cost guide sets out published Adelaide price ranges.
Do you do kitchen renovations in Norwood too?
Yes. We design and build complete kitchen renovations in Norwood, with the cabinetry, benchtops and trades coordinated by one team and the plumbing and gas fitting done by our own licensed team (Licence No. 284188). Most kitchens take around 3–5 weeks on site.
