This Takapuna renovation focused on transforming a retirement village unit into a warm, modern, and accessible home for its new owner in her 90s. To improve energy efficiency and year-round comfort, we installed double-glazed joinery, significantly boosting heat retention and reducing drafts.
Inside, the bathroom was redesigned with safety and ease of use in mind. Grab rails, a step-free shower, and a practical vanity layout ensure accessibility while still delivering a fresh, modern look. The entire bathroom was fully retiled, creating a clean, durable, and stylish finish.
The renovation extended well beyond the bathroom. We enclosed the porch to create additional covered storage, installed new flooring, and fitted a sleek, modern kitchen renovation with easy-to-use fixtures and fittings—making everyday living simpler and more enjoyable.
The result is a practical, stylish, and future-proof home that perfectly meets the needs of its elderly resident. By combining improved energy efficiency, enhanced safety, and thoughtful detailing, this project demonstrates how Cain Built delivers renovations that not only transform spaces visually but also enhance quality of life.
