Two bathrooms is where we started after a terrible tenant left our home in a bad way. We add a laundry, replace timber doors, rebuilt a pergola, touched up a timber kitchen and the list went on. We live interstate and managing from afar, has been a nightmare in the past. Well until we were referred to Zac. The flexibility, the care and attention we received, the constant communication and phones calls and photos along the way, we couldn't ask for a better experience. I deal with builders everyday as a mortgage broker and have never experienced anything like Zac and his team. Could not recommend more highly

🌟 Transformational Bathroom & Ensuite Renovations – Living by Design Delivered Perfection! 🌟If you’re dreaming of a luxurious, functional bathroom or ensuite on the Mornington Peninsula, Living by Design is the team to trust. Zac and his crew recently transformed both my bathrooms into stunning, spa-like retreats, and I couldn’t be more thrilled with the results!From the initial consultation, Zac showcased his signature blend of precision and approachability. His quote for the ensuite and main bathroom was not only comprehensive but also tailored to my vision, breaking down costs and timelines in a way that felt honest and easy to grasp. He even offered clever design suggestions to maximize space and light—proof that he genuinely cares about creating spaces that work for you, not just checking boxes.The renovation process was flawlessly executed. Zac’s team of tradespeople treated my home like their own. Every plumber, tiler, and electrician was punctual, respectful, and obsessive about cleanliness—shoes off, daily cleanup, and zero disruption to the rest of the house. Their skill shone through in the impeccable tile work, sleek waterproofing, and flawless fixture installations. It’s clear Zac partners only with the best in the business.What truly amazed me was the lack of stress. Renovating two bathrooms simultaneously could have been chaos, but Zac’s proactive communication and military-grade organization kept everything on track. No delays, no mess, no surprises—just regular updates and a finish date met to the day.Now, my bathrooms aren’t just functional—they’re showstoppers. The ensuite feels like a five-star hotel retreat, and the main bathroom is a family-friendly oasis built to last. Every detail, from the grout lines to the vanity lighting, reflects Living by Design’s relentless attention to quality.Don’t settle for less on your next renovation. Zac and Living by Design are Mornington Peninsula’s hidden gem for bathrooms, ensuites, and beyond.“They turned my ‘meh’ bathrooms into my home’s pride and joy—10/10!” 🚿✨Zac has my number—reach out, and I’ll happily rave about their work!Living by Design: Where Vision Meets Craftsmanship. Thank you for making my dream bathrooms a reality! 🙏📍 Mornington Peninsula’s Bathroom Experts | 📞 Seamless Process, Stunning Results

I recently had my bathroom and ensuite renovated by Living By Design (as well as some roofing and interior walls), and I couldn't be happier with the result! Zac was recommended to me by a local building inspector and he absolutely did not disappoint.From start to finish, Zac was a pleasure to deal with—professional, polite, and incredibly easygoing. He made the entire process seamless and stress-free, always keeping me informed and ensuring everything was completed to the highest standard. His attention to detail and commitment to quality workmanship really stood out, and the finished product speaks for itself.Not only was the work top-notch, but the whole experience was actually enjoyable—Zac is great to chat with and clearly takes pride in what he does. If you're looking for quality renovations with a hassle-free process, I highly recommend Living By Design.Thanks again, Zac!

Thank you Zac and the Living By Design Construction team. We are over the moon with our new pool house. Zac was very helpful from the very beginning with design changes and his clear communication and great workmanship we greatly appreciated throughout the whole build process. All of the trades were lovely to interact and work with and left the area clean and tidy. We would highly recommend Zac and the team for any future building projects. Matt and Tilly

This was our second project with Zac and the team at Living by Design and we’d definitely be back for a third and forth. Having had a gas fireplace and two windows installed brilliantly with the team, we had our kitchen skylight and exposed truss completed shortly after. Not only was the workmanship top notch and competitively priced, they were responsive, prompt, flexible, informative and overall just great to work with. Would recommend to anyone looking for professional collaboration and a great finished product.
