Getting here

The Bellarine Highway brings you into Geelong from Leopold and Drysdale, and Portarlington Road is the usual route from Portarlington and Clifton Springs. Times are approximate and depend on traffic.

Bathrooms for growing towns and bay side homes

Leopold, Drysdale and Clifton Springs have grown quickly, with many newer family homes alongside older houses on larger blocks. Portarlington and St Leonards have a mix of permanent homes and holiday houses near the bay. Each brings a slightly different brief.

• Family homes: matt porcelain floors, a wall hung vanity with drawers, a rail shower and a bath for the kids.
• Acreage and larger homes: a freestanding bath, a double vanity and large format tiles in the main bathroom.
• Holiday houses: durable, easy care finishes, travertine look or stone look tiles that hide sand, and robust accessories.
• Tapware near the bay: brushed nickel and PVD finishes resist marks; wipe salt spray off any finish regularly. See caring for tapware finishes.

Outdoor showers, decks and alfrescos

An outdoor shower by the back door saves sand coming through the house. Use outdoor tiles with a grip finish and a slip rating that suits wet bare feet, and pick a shower and finish that your plumber is happy to install outdoors. For decks and pool surrounds, 20mm pavers are a tough option.

In the showroom

Tapware from Phoenix Tapware, Meir and Modern National, vanities from Otti, Aulic and ADP, stone baths and basins from Pietra Bianca and Madu, and porcelain, ceramic, mosaic and natural stone tiles for floors, walls and outdoor areas.
