Transparency note: this guide is compiled by the team at Grand Renovation. We’ve listed the contractors we consider the strongest for a bathroom renovation in the Netherlands, with honest, factual profiles so you can compare and choose.
A bathroom is the most technically demanding room in the house to renovate — waterproofing, plumbing, electrics and tiling all in a few square metres, where one mistake means damp, mould and a second renovation. So the contractor matters. This guide compares the best bathroom renovation companies in the Netherlands for 2026, with a checklist for choosing and a clear picture of what a bathroom renovation actually costs.
Top picks at a glance: Grand Renovation (best overall, all trades in-house), De Badkamer Renovatie (best dedicated bathroom specialist), TopRenovatie (best transparent pricing), CBS Renovation (best for design-led remodels), Tip Top Vakmannen (best for expats and luxury finishes) and LucKey Construction (best-reviewed all-rounder).
How we chose
For a bathroom, we weighted the things that protect the hidden work as much as the finish:
- In-house plumbing, electrics and tiling — the technical trades that decide whether a bathroom lasts.
- Fixed all-in pricing over open estimates, which climb once old plumbing is exposed.
- English-speaking service for quotes, contracts and daily updates.
- Permit and VvE awareness — important in apartments and older buildings.
- Verifiable credentials — KvK registration and genuine reviews.
The best bathroom renovation companies in the Netherlands
1. Grand Renovation — best overall
Grand Renovation delivers complete bathroom renovations across the Netherlands with all trades in-house — plumbers, electricians and tile specialists on one team, one invoice and one point of contact. It manages the whole job from demolition and waterproofing through plumbing, electrical work (to NEN standards), tiling and finishing, and even installs electric underfloor heating as part of the same job, with no separate contractor.
The commercial side is just as clean: a free site visit, an itemised fixed-price quote that doesn’t change once work begins, and a standard bathroom completed in 5–10 working days. Bathrooms start from €8,000, everything is handled in English, and the company holds a 5.0/5 Google rating with 200+ projects delivered nationwide (KvK 94089590).
Best for: anyone who wants one accountable team, a genuinely fixed price and clear English communication on a technically tricky room.

2. De Badkamer Renovatie — best dedicated bathroom specialist
De Badkamer Renovatie does one thing: bathrooms. Based in Amsterdam and working nationwide (with travel included in the quote), it offers a fully English-speaking service, fixed all-in pricing, a 5.0 Google rating, and deep familiarity with Dutch permit and VvE requirements. As a single-trade specialist, its whole process — design to delivery — is built around bathrooms, including modern finishes like beton ciré (concrete-look).
Best for: a standalone bathroom renovation, especially for expats who want a specialist rather than a generalist.
3. TopRenovatie — best for transparent pricing
TopRenovatie renovates small and large bathrooms turnkey, with 15+ years’ experience and a 4.9 rating. It’s unusually upfront about numbers: labour costs are quoted in the region of €6,500–€14,200 depending on size, finish and pipework, with fixed, transparent per-m² pricing and free quotes.
Best for: homeowners who want clear labour pricing before committing, from a refresh to a full remodel.
4. CBS Renovation — best for design-led remodels
CBS Renovation pairs the build with a proper design process — a detailed plan and 3D model before work starts — and guides you through moisture-proof materials, layered lighting and ventilation (the details that make or break a bathroom). It also flags the practicalities, recommending a 10–15% contingency for hidden issues in older homes.
Best for: homeowners who want to see the design visualised before committing, and value material and lighting guidance.
5. Tip Top Vakmannen — best for expats and luxury finishes
Amsterdam-based and fully English-speaking, Tip Top Vakmannen focuses on expats and does bathroom remodels with an eye on higher-end finishes — walk-in showers and spa-style bathrooms tailored to the space. Weekly updates and a fixed point of contact make the process easy to follow.
Best for: expats in the Amsterdam region wanting a design-forward, higher-end bathroom.
6. LucKey Construction — best-reviewed all-rounder
Based in Zaandam, LucKey Construction offers bathroom renovation alongside a broad catalogue of renovation and structural services, and is strongly reviewed — around 4.8/5 on Google and 4.7 on Werkspot. Useful when your bathroom is part of a bigger job.
Best for: a bathroom bundled with other renovation or structural work in the Amsterdam–Zaandam region.

How to choose a bathroom renovation company
- Confirm the technical trades are in-house. Waterproofing, plumbing and electrics are the hidden work that determines whether a bathroom lasts — you want them under one accountable team, not subcontracted.
- Insist on a fixed all-in quote after a site inspection. Open estimates on bathrooms typically rise 20–30% once old plumbing is exposed.
- Check permit and VvE experience. A standard bathroom needs no permit, but apartments often need VvE approval, and older buildings hide plumbing surprises.
- Verify the KvK number and read the reviews.
- Ask about the timeline. A standard bathroom is a 5–10 working-day job; layout changes and underfloor heating push it to 2–3 weeks.
What does a bathroom renovation cost in the Netherlands?
Most homeowners land around €10,000–€12,000 all-in for a standard bathroom. Labour is the largest slice (roughly 30% of the budget), followed by fixtures (~25%), tiles and waterproofing (~20%), a contingency buffer (~15%) and styling (~10%). Keeping the existing plumbing layout is the biggest single saving. Labour on homes older than two years is charged at the reduced 9% VAT rate, and a modernised bathroom typically adds 5–10% to a home’s asking price.
| Scope | Indicative cost (NL, 2026) |
|---|---|
| Small refresh (2–4 m²) | €2,500 – €5,000 |
| Mid-range full remodel (5–6 m²) | €8,000 – €15,000 |
| High-end / luxury | €20,000 – €30,000+ |
