One company
Strip-out, plumbing, waterproofing and tiling from the same company — no hand-over point where things get stuck.
Bathroom renovation in Lucerne.
Complete bathroom renovation in Lucerne and the surrounding area — one contact person for plumbing, waterproofing and tiling, with a fixed handover date.
Bathroom renovation Lucerne — complete renovation from strip-out to acceptance
Three firm commitments.
With a test report
Pressure and leak test of the new pipes, photos of the waterproofing before it is closed — you receive both.
Fixed handover date
The date is in the contract, not in a verbal promise. 5-year warranty from acceptance.
One journey instead of ten.
Lucerne is about fifty minutes from our warehouse, and that changes the planning. Here we work in continuous blocks rather than many short visits, and we order all materials before the strip-out begins — a forgotten tap costs a day in Lucerne, an hour in Altstetten. We also take on smaller bathroom jobs; travel is listed in the quote as a fixed item, known in advance.
How a complete renovation runs.
Six steps, always in this order. If one is skipped, it only shows years later — usually as damp.
- 01
Strip-out back to the shell
Old fixtures, tiles and substructure come out; rubble is removed as we go.
- 02
New water and waste pipes
Laid and checked with a pressure and leak test. The report goes to you.
- 03
Pre-wall installation
WC, cistern and niches built into the wall — the plumbing disappears and you gain storage space.
- 04
Bonded waterproofing
Applied before tiling and photographed before it is covered. Without this step, a level-access shower is not watertight.
- 05
Tiles and grout
Floor and walls, large-format or small, according to your choice of materials.
- 06
Installation and acceptance
Taps, mirror, lighting, cleaning — handover with an acceptance report.
What it costs.

Materials (tiles, fixtures, fittings) come on top, as you choose. Travel is a fixed item in the quote, known in advance.

ZurichBuilding permit.
In the canton of Lucerne, § 54 para. 1 of the Planning and Building Ordinance (Planungs- und Bauverordnung, PBV) exempts changes from the permit requirement where neither the public nor the neighbours have an interest in checking them in advance; heating, ventilation and air-conditioning systems inside the building are named explicitly (para. 2 let. d). Whether your bathroom or kitchen renovation falls under this is assessed by the municipality — we clarify it before work starts and confirm it in writing. A bathroom that stays in the same place and needs no new pipe through the load-bearing structure is usually straightforward.
A completed bathroom.
Bathroom — green marble and brass
A watertight, fully documented bathroom in three to four weeks. The owner holds the test report and photos of the pipes taken before the walls were closed.
Frequently asked questions.
What we are asked most often before a bathroom renovation in Lucerne.
Will you come to Lucerne for a single bathroom?
Yes — for a full renovation as well as smaller jobs. Travel is listed in the quote as a fixed item; small jobs have a minimum of three hours.
How do you prevent delays caused by materials?
We order everything before the strip-out and only start once it has all arrived.
How long does a bathroom renovation take?
On the reference project (bathroom in green marble) it took three to four weeks from strip-out to acceptance. We give you the binding date after the survey on site; it then goes into the contract.
Can we use the bathroom during the work?
No. During a complete renovation the bathroom cannot be used from removal to installation. If the property has only one bathroom, we plan this with you in advance.
Who buys the tiles and fixtures?
As you prefer. We can source everything, or you supply the materials and we install them — either way, the labour is shown separately in the quote.
Do you also renovate several bathrooms in a series?
Yes. Same materials, same process, flat by flat — so the effort per bathroom stays predictable and the flats can be let again one after another.
