The public toilets at Ruby Bay, known as the Pine Hill toilets, have had a spruce-up.

It’s been several years since the loos had a facelift, and the old facilities were looking a bit worse for wear as they came up on the list for a routine upgrade.

The building’s been repainted inside and out, with toilet fittings and hand basins replaced. On the inside, partitions have been replaced and new flooring laid. Externally, old plantings have been removed, and a new selection of appropriate coastal plants will be going into the ground soon.

Screening around the outside has been upgraded, and the old harsh-looking front-facing concrete block wall has had wooden framing added to soften the appearance and match the new screening.

We’ve even installed a drinking fountain complete with a dog bowl, making the toilets a much nicer place to go!
