Bathroom showroom Brisbane southside: what to bring
You booked Saturday for a bathroom showroom run on Brisbane southside. Then the tile sample stayed at home, the tape measure photo was blurry, and you left with three mixer finishes and no decision. Visit prep is not paperwork theatre - it is how you turn a look-around into a shortlist you can order from.
This article is a what to bring checklist for Brisbane southside and Logan visitors to Elenni at 1 Bryants Road, Loganholme QLD 4129 (phone 07 3209 9644, M1 Exit 28). It is not a ranking of showrooms. For how to filter a showroom in the first place, see choosing a bathroom showroom visit from Brisbane, Logan and the Gold Coast. Local landers: bathroom showroom Brisbane and bathroom store Brisbane.
Hook: the photo that lied
Phone cameras flatten gunmetal into black and warm gold into yellow. Cool LED bathroom lights in a display bay can disagree with the warm LED strip you planned above the mirror. The truth is simple: finishes and timber undertones need physical samples next to your tile and paint - not another saved screenshot.
Truth: bring evidence of the room, not just inspiration
Inspiration boards help taste. Decisions need constraints. Bring what proves the room:
- Floor plan or sketch with wall widths, door swings and window sills marked
- Photos with a tape in shot - vanity wall, shower niche, toilet clearances
- Plumbing notes - wall mixers already roughed in, waste locations, hot/cold centres if known
- Tile, paint or benchtop samples for finish matching under showroom light
- A short shortlist - two vanity widths and one finish family you are testing, not twenty tabs
If vanity type is still open, skim vanity mount types and the small-ensuite comparison freestanding vs wall-hung for small Brisbane bathrooms before you drive.
Measurements that save a second visit
You do not need a CAD file. You do need honest numbers:
- Vanity wall clear width and available projection into the room
- Basin mixer type preference (basin, wall, tall) and any existing wall body
- Shower recess size and whether the waste is already set
- Mirror height preference relative to vanity top and light fittings
Size guides on site: vanity sizing guide, basin sizing guide. Shop starting points: vanities, tapware, showers.
Finish samples: match the wet area as a set
A basin mixer is easy to love alone. Renovations stall when the shower rail and towel rail drift into a different undertone. Ask to see one finish family across mixers, showers and accessories. Useful collections: matte black, gunmetal, brushed gold, brushed nickel, chrome.

Questions worth asking in the bay
- Which finish code ties this mixer to the matching shower and accessories?
- Where are WaterMark and WELS shown for this exact SKU on the product page?
- What cleaners are approved for this finish code?
- For wall-hung vanities: what wall structure does the manufacturer assume?
- Pickup vs delivery options once stock is confirmed - ask the team; we do not invent transit times here.

Next step
Pack the tape photos, one tile sample and two vanity widths. Confirm finishes under real light, then lock one finish family before tiling closes. Full renovation sequencing: bathroom renovation checklist.
