Canggu is our busiest area — a wave of fast-built villas going up near the surf, plus older homes being bought and upgraded. Two Canggu realities shape the work: a lot of villas were built quickly with thin waterproofing and budget finishes that fail early, and proximity to the beach means salt air attacks everything. We do a steady mix of fixing rushed new-builds and giving older Canggu villas a full modern renovation.
What We Renovate Most in Canggu
In Canggu we see two jobs constantly: leaking flat roofs and bathrooms on quickly-built villas, and complete renovations of older homes bought as investments. Beachside properties from Echo Beach to Batu Bolong get our coastal waterproofing and salt-resistant paint by default. Investor renovations usually run as a full villa renovation with new kitchen and wet areas.
Canggu and Berawa Villas: What Fails First
Most villas between Berawa, Batu Bolong and Pererenan are less than ten years old, and many were built to a sales deadline. The failures follow the shortcuts: flat roofs and roof terraces with a single coat of membrane or none at all, bathrooms tiled straight onto screed, rendered walls painted before they dried, electrics that trip when every room runs air-con, and mild-steel fixings rusting within a few hundred metres of the beach. Berawa, a street or two from the beach clubs, has the newest stock of all — good bones, budget finishes — so owners there more often ask for an upgrade than a repair: better kitchens, floors and outdoor spaces on a sound shell.
A Typical Canggu Job, Before and After
A typical Canggu brief: a two- or three-bedroom rental villa, five to eight years old, with one leaking bathroom, a flat roof that stains the ceiling below every wet season and a tired pool. The order we run it in: roof and terrace re-membraned and flood-tested first, then the bathroom stripped to the slab and rebuilt as a wet room, then the pool resurfaced and the facade repainted with a salt-resistant system — phased so the villa loses as few booking nights as possible. Before: stained ceilings, drumming tiles and a pool that photographs grey. After: dry ceilings, wet areas under a 5-year waterproofing warranty and a villa ready for new listing photos.
Logistics and Pricing in Canggu
Traffic, not distance, is the cost driver here: we schedule deliveries early in the morning, stage materials inside your gate and keep a small crew on site instead of trucking people in and out. Beachfront villas get salt-resistant specifications on exposed work, which adds roughly 20–30% on those items; villas further inland usually do not need it. Everything else is priced on the same island-wide rates as our renovation price list.
