The 10 Best Bathroom Renovation Companies in Paris

Viva Douche suits older people and their families who want to swap a bathtub for a safe shower with minimal disruption. The company focuses on this one job, fitting level-access or walk-in showers with an extra-flat anti-slip tray, a seat, grab bars and a thermostatic mixer. Installation is planned to take one to two days. The home visit and quote are free, and the site explains the tax credit available for this kind of work.

Azurix suits owners who want a clear idea of cost from the outset and a founder who stays involved. Mathieu Tomanik runs the sites himself, and the company's own crews carry out almost all the work. A 4 to 6 m² bathroom with standard materials starts at €10,000, and a complete renovation takes four to eight weeks. On larger jobs, 5 percent of the payment is held back for three months after handover.

EREM's bathroom team suits owners who want published starting prices and a firm quote quickly. Turnkey bathrooms start at €6,500, walk-in showers at €3,900 and accessible bathrooms for older people at €4,900. A free site visit leads to an itemised fixed-price quote within 48 working hours. Salaried teams do the work without subcontracting, and the ten-year guarantee covers waterproofing as well as structural work, a key point for walk-in showers.

Compagnon Carreleur suits bathroom projects where tiling is the centrepiece, from large-format porcelain to natural stone and zellige. Founder Damien Puyfaucher trained with the Fédération compagnonnique, and the company's plumbers, electricians and painters are its own staff. Turnkey bathrooms include demolition, waterproofing under walk-in showers and a 3D plan before work begins. Expect a wait, as works usually start two to four months after the quote is accepted.

San Marco suits bathroom projects where plumbing and electrics are the real work, since both trades sit at the heart of the business. The firm in the 15th installs bathtubs, sanitaryware and taps, fits bathrooms and kitchens to measure, and also handles leaks and blocked drains. It holds RGE Qualibat and Qualifelec qualifications and covers its work with the décennale. Quotes are free and detailed, which makes them easy to compare.

Les Bains & Cuisines d'Alexandre suits owners planning a complete bathroom overhaul rather than a quick refresh. Bathrooms have been its core business since 1996, handled by a team that brings together an architect, a plumber, an electrician, a tiler and a painter. Its site publishes price ranges per square metre, from a simple refresh to structural work. A callback within 24 hours is followed by a site visit and a free quote.

Renove Habitat suits owners who want a custom bathroom designed around their needs, from a walk-in shower to an accessible layout. The company in the 11th creates bathrooms with Italian-style showers, design bathtubs or reduced-mobility layouts. It also handles flooring, decoration, electrics, windows and security doors. One contact coordinates the trades, deadlines are fixed in the planning, and the work carries a ten-year décennale guarantee.

BatiRenov suits residents of northern Paris who want a local firm for a bathroom and the plumbing behind it. Based on rue Championnet, it has worked in the 18th for 25 years, around Montmartre, Clignancourt and La Chapelle, and also covers the 9th, 10th, 17th and 19th. Its plumbers renovate bathrooms, replace water heaters and handle emergencies seven days a week. Free quotes are promised within 24 hours.

Experts de Maison is useful for owners who want to see real budgets before committing, since its case studies show the price and duration of past bathrooms. Recent examples include a 6 m² bathroom in the 8th for €8,000 in 11 days and a 10 m² one in the 20th for €7,000 in 8 days. Walk-in showers, freestanding baths and quiet ventilation are part of its bathroom work, and every project carries the décennale.

ERG Rénovation suits owners who want a bathroom done as part of a high-end interior renovation. The company in the 20th renovates bathrooms, kitchens and whole apartments, and also handles common areas for building managers. Quotes are free, follow a site visit and are itemised line by line, and each project comes with a committed schedule. It covers Paris and the three inner-suburb departments, including Boulogne-Billancourt, Vincennes and Neuilly-sur-Seine.
