How much does a bathroom renovation cost in Switzerland?

A simple renovation (tiles and fixtures) costs between CHF 8,000 and 15,000. A complete renovation where everything is redone costs between CHF 15,000 and 35,000, and a high-end version can reach CHF 60,000. The price depends on size, materials and plumbing changes.

What budget should I plan for a new kitchen?

A standard fitted kitchen costs between CHF 15,000 and 30,000, including installation and connections. For high-end custom work, expect between CHF 30,000 and 60,000. Appliances typically represent 20 to 30% of the total budget.

How long does the work take?

A complete bathroom requires 2 to 4 weeks on site. For a kitchen, installation takes 1 to 2 weeks, but allow for the cabinet ordering time, often 6 to 10 weeks. Plan your project accordingly.

Can the shower or water supply points be moved?

Yes, but it increases the cost: moving pipes and drains means opening floors or walls, and the drainage slope must remain sufficient. Keeping the water points in place is the best way to control the budget.

Do I need a permit to renovate my kitchen or bathroom?

For an interior renovation without structural changes, no building permit is required in most municipalities in Western Switzerland. In a condominium (PPE), check the regulations and inform the management. Tenants must obtain the landlord's written consent before starting work.

How can water damage be avoided after a renovation?

Under-tile waterproofing is the critical point: insist on a waterproofing membrane compliant with SIA standards in shower and bathtub areas. Check this item in the quote and at the handover of the work. Effective ventilation completes the protection against damp.

Kitchen renovation: from design to installation

A successful kitchen starts with a layout plan suited to your space and habits. Our partners design and install custom or semi-custom kitchens: cabinets, worktops (laminate, quartz, granite, ceramic), splashbacks, built-in appliances and lighting. Installation includes plumbing and electrical connections, carried out by licensed professionals for a compliant, guaranteed result.

Bathroom: from a simple refresh to a complete transformation

Replacing a bathtub with a walk-in shower, modernising the taps or redoing the entire room: our installers cover every level of intervention. A complete renovation includes removal, plumbing and electrical adaptations, under-tile waterproofing (essential in wet areas), tiling, fixtures and finishes. Ventilation is systematically checked to prevent damp and mould.

One project, several coordinated trades

Renovating a kitchen or bathroom involves up to five trades: plumber, electrician, tiler, plasterer-painter and carpenter. Coordination is the key to a project without unpleasant surprises. Our partner companies handle this coordination or work as general contractors: one contact, one quote, one schedule under control from start to finish.

What influences the price of a kitchen or bathroom

The level of finish is the first factor: between a standard laminate kitchen and a custom layout with a ceramic worktop, the budget can triple. For the bathroom, the choice between a refresh and a complete transformation changes the order of magnitude of the quote.

Technical changes weigh heavily: moving water supplies, drains or the electrical distribution board involves structural work. Room size, tile quality and the chosen taps complete the calculation.

In Western Switzerland, rates also vary by canton and site accessibility. To see clearly, compare up to 3 free quotes via Edirex.

Standards and permits: what you need to know in Switzerland

Wet areas are governed by SIA standards, notably SIA 271 for waterproofing: a waterproofing membrane under the tiles is essential around showers and bathtubs. Electrical installations in bathrooms must respect strict safety distances and fall under the OIBT: only a licensed electrician may carry out the work.

An interior renovation without structural changes generally does not require a building permit. In a condominium (PPE), inform the management and check the regulations before touching shared pipes. Tenants must obtain the landlord's written consent.

This work adds lasting value to your property: a renovated kitchen or bathroom is a decisive argument when selling or re-letting.

Choosing the right fitter or installer

Choose a professional who visits your home before quoting: a serious quote details every item, removal, materials, installation, connections and finishes. Ask to see comparable projects and check the warranties on waterproofing and appliances.

The coordination of trades must be clearly defined: who manages the site, who is liable in case of defects. A general contractor or experienced fitter saves you from juggling five different contacts.

With Edirex, every partner company is verified against 4 strict criteria: solvency, liability insurance, social charges up to date and commercial register extract. You receive a maximum of 3 comparable quotes.
