You know this bathroom by heart. The grout lines you've scrubbed for years without ever really winning. The faucet that's been dripping so long you don't even hear it anymore. The hollow-sounding floor near the shower. The noisy ventilation fan that barely ventilates anything. The lack of storage for the whole family.
You've been putting it off until next fall for a few falls now.
À Pincourt, In Pincourt, the homes from the 1970s to 2000s that make up most of the residential housing stock often have bathrooms that haven't been touched in 20 to 35 years. Functional — barely. Comfortable — not really. And often, these aging bathrooms hide problems far more serious than their dated appearance. Moisture buildup behind the tiles. A structurally compromised floor beneath the ceramic. Ventilation so inadequate it's been creating condensation inside the walls for years.
At Deluxe Group, At Groupe Deluxe, we've been renovating residential bathrooms in Pincourt and the Vaudreuil-Soulanges area for over 15 years. We're based right here — we know the typical bathroom layouts for each decade of construction in the area, the problems we consistently find behind the walls, and what it takes to deliver a renovation that's still beautiful and functional 15 years from now.

A bathroom is the most humid space in your home. In Pincourt, where ambient humidity levels are already higher than in inland areas due to the proximity of Lake Saint-Louis and the Ottawa River, this reality is even more pronounced.
A bathroom with inadequate ventilation in a Pincourt home is a particularly problematic combination. The moisture from daily showers and baths doesn't escape properly. It accumulates in the walls, behind the ceramic tiles, under the floor. In homes from the 70s to 90s in the area, we regularly find structures significantly damaged by years of poorly managed condensation — even in bathrooms that looked visually in decent shape.
That's why a well-done bathroom renovation in Pincourt doesn't start with picking out tiles. It starts with an honest assessment of the true condition of the structure — floor joists, load-bearing walls, subfloor condition, the state of existing plumbing — before anything else is decided.
The condition of the floor joists beneath the bathroom — in Pincourt homes from the 70s to 90s, moisture-damaged joists are a common discovery during demolition. We can often detect this in advance by inspecting from the basement below. The condition of existing plumbing — cast iron, copper, or PVC pipes depending on the era of construction. The actual effectiveness of the current ventilation — does it really exhaust to the outside, or does it dump into the attic, a common problem in older Pincourt homes? The presence of mold or discoloration behind cabinets or under the edges of the tub — signs of chronic, poorly managed moisture.
We factor all of this into the renovation planning before we even talk tiles and vanities. That's what makes the difference between a renovation that lasts 20 years and one that starts causing problems in 4.
Depending on the condition of the existing bathroom and the scope of work, we proceed with a complete demolition — stripping everything down to the studs — or a partial one if certain components can be saved. In Pincourt homes from the 70s to 90s, complete demolition is almost always the best option. It allows us to inspect the true condition of the structure and start fresh on a sound foundation.
We carefully protect adjacent areas during demolition — the hallway, the neighboring bedroom, the basement ceiling below. A bathroom demolition in an occupied home is something that needs to be handled with care.
Once the walls and floor are stripped bare, we inspect every joist, every stud, every subfloor surface. Areas damaged by moisture — softening, mold, delamination — are replaced before we continue. In Pincourt homes from the 70s to 90s, this step often reveals more extensive damage than anticipated — especially around old tubs and under original shower floors.
We show you what we found before we act. Always.
We check the condition of existing supply lines and drains. In Pincourt homes from the 70s, you can still find cast iron drain plumbing — a material that's past its prime and may need replacement depending on its condition. Aging copper supply lines, weeping fittings, hardened joints — all of this is evaluated and replaced if necessary.
If the renovation plan involves moving the shower, tub, or vanity, the plumbing work for relocating drains and supply lines is planned and included in the estimate from the start. No mid-project surprises for work that wasn't accounted for.
This is the step most often skipped by inexperienced or rushed crews — and it's the step that determines whether your new bathroom will still be watertight in 15 years or whether water will seep behind the tile within the first few years.
In shower areas and around the tub, we apply a waterproofing membrane over all surfaces before installing the tile — walls and floor. This membrane creates a continuous barrier that prevents water from penetrating the structure even if a tile joint cracks over time.
In Pincourt, where ambient humidity is already high, this membrane isn't optional. It's the foundation of the entire renovation's durability.
On walls that won't receive tile, we use moisture-resistant drywall — the green board — rather than standard drywall. In a Pincourt bathroom, where steam is constant, this is the minimum requirement for a lasting installation. Taping and finishing are done carefully for a smooth, uniform surface ready for paint.
Tile installation is one of Groupe Deluxe's signature skills. We never subcontract this step — our own team sets every tile in every bathroom we renovate in Pincourt.
Surface preparation
It all starts with a perfectly prepared substrate. The surface must be rigid, level, and waterproofed in wet areas. A tile set on a flexible or uneven surface will crack — not right away, but with the thermal cycles and normal vibrations of a home. In Pincourt, the intense thermal swings of our winters amplify this effect.
Choosing the right format and product for the space
Large formats — 12×24, 24×24 — require an especially flat surface and a specific installation technique to avoid lippage. Small formats and mosaics have their own requirements. We adapt to the format you choose and advise you on what works best in your specific space.
For bathroom floors, we consistently use slip-resistant tile in wet areas — not just beautiful, but safe.
Grout joints — a detail that makes all the difference
Joint spacing, color, and the type of grout used — all of this affects both the final look and durability. For shower areas and around the tub, we use epoxy grout or a moisture- and mold-resistant grout — not standard grout that will darken within a few years and require scrubbing every week. Transition joints between tile and adjacent surfaces are sealed with quality silicone — never grout, which will crack at movement joints.
What we do with tile in a Pincourt bathroom:
Ceramic or porcelain tile flooring — slip-resistant in wet areas. Walk-in shower walls or tub alcove — full wall installation from floor to ceiling or to your chosen height. Integrated shower niche for accessories — planned from the design phase, built with the same care as the rest. Decorative vanity backsplash if included in the design. Large format, subway, mosaic, wood-look or stone-look porcelain — we adapt to your style and budget.
Vanity installation — cabinet, countertop, and sink according to your chosen configuration. Faucet installation — sink mixer, shower head, tub spout if applicable. Mirror or medicine cabinet installation. Towel bars, toilet paper holder, hooks, and other accessories. Final plumbing hookup.
We work with the products you've selected — or we can guide you toward options based on your budget and preferences if you'd like us to handle the selection.
Bathroom ventilation in Pincourt is especially critical. In the area's higher ambient humidity, a bathroom without effective ventilation accumulates moisture at an accelerated rate — with all the consequences that brings for material durability and indoor air quality.
We verify that the new ventilation actually exhausts to the outside — not into the attic or an intermediate space. We make sure the airflow is adequate for the bathroom's square footage. And we choose a quiet fan — because if a fan is noisy, people don't use it, which completely defeats its purpose.
Application of moisture-resistant paint on all non-tiled walls and the ceiling — minimum two coats after primer. Installation of baseboards and door casings. Installation of the bathroom door if replacement is needed. Sealing of transition joints between tile and adjacent elements. Final check of all connections and watertightness of all wet areas.
Homes from that era in Pincourt often have bathrooms with distinctive layouts. The built-in tub with alcove walls in 4×4 ceramic tile in pastel shades — powder pink, mint green, sky blue — that faithfully reflect the aesthetic of the time. Vinyl or small ceramic mosaic flooring. The built-in vanity with a Formica countertop.
These bathrooms are between 40 and 50 years old. The structures underneath have often endured decades of more or less well-managed moisture. Cast iron plumbing for drains is common. Floor joists deserve a careful inspection before any work begins.
The good news: these homes often have bathrooms with reasonable dimensions — sometimes even more generous than builds from the 90s. There's room to create something beautiful.
The dominant generation in Pincourt's residential housing stock. Larger-format tile than previous years, often in beige and brown tones. Freestanding or built-in tubs. Vanities with integrated ceramic countertops. These bathrooms are between 30 and 40 years old — and they're showing their age. Darkened grout, oxidized fixtures, noisy and inefficient ventilation, floors starting to give way underfoot.
This is the most active generation of bathrooms for renovations in Pincourt right now — and it's exactly the type of project we handle best.
The newest in the established area. Larger on average, often with double sinks in the main bathroom. Better quality materials than before. Some are still in good shape and only need a partial refresh. Others have had waterproofing issues in the shower or around the tub that have caused progressive damage. An honest inspection determines which approach applies.
We see it. Homeowners who contact us not for a first renovation — but to fix what a less conscientious contractor did a few years earlier.
This is the most common case. A shower or tub renovation done without a waterproofing membrane under the tile. For a year or two, everything looks fine. Then the grout starts to crack slightly, water seeps in, and begins silently degrading the structure. By the time tiles start to loosen or the floor flexes slightly, water has often already caused significant damage to the joists underneath.
A fan installed that exhausts into the attic instead of to the outside. Moisture builds up in the attic, creates condensation on the roof sheathing, and promotes mold growth. In Pincourt, with the area's already high ambient humidity, this problem accelerates.
A renovation started and completed without inspecting the actual condition of the joists under the floor. Six months after completion, the tile floor starts to flex slightly — a sign that the joists underneath were already damaged before the new tile was laid on top.
A subcontractor hired for the project, paid, and gone. No number that answers, no follow-up. At Groupe Deluxe, our local reputation in Pincourt is on the line with every project. We stay — before, during, and after.
We've renovated bathrooms in homes from every generation in Pincourt and the Vaudreuil-Soulanges area. We know what we'll find in the bathroom of a 1978 bungalow in Pincourt. We know the typical problems by construction era, the plumbing configurations by decade, the usual weak points. This knowledge translates into more precise planning and far fewer surprises during the job.
We never install tile in a wet area without a properly installed waterproofing membrane. That's our non-negotiable standard on every bathroom project in Pincourt. In the context of the area's higher ambient humidity, it's the only way to ensure a lasting renovation.
Tile installation is one of our real strengths. Not a task subcontracted to someone else — our own team does every installation. Rigorous surface preparation, aligned grout lines, perfect waterproofing in wet areas, clean finishes. Work that stands out immediately to the eye — and lasts over time.

We've renovated bathrooms in all kinds of layouts — small 4x6 bathrooms in older Pincourt homes, large master bathrooms with walk-in showers and freestanding tubs, basement powder rooms with tricky plumbing constraints. Every project brings its own quirks. The experience we've built on these projects is what lets us anticipate problems and deliver quality results even in challenging layouts.
In a is won or lost., surprises can come up once the walls are opened — and it happens regularly in Pincourt homes from the 70s to the 90s. Moisture-damaged joists, non-compliant plumbing, a poorly positioned drain, an extended area of mold. We contact you right away, show you what we found, explain your options, and wait for your go-ahead before moving forward. No surprise charges added after the fact without a conversation.

For a complete renovation of a standard bathroom in Pincourt — demolition, basic plumbing, waterproofing, tile, drywall, paint, vanity, and fixtures — prices typically range between $9,000 and $22,000. A master bathroom with a custom tiled walk-in shower, freestanding tub, and high-end finishes can exceed that amount. Projects that uncover structural damage to floor joists or significant plumbing work add variable costs. Only an on-site visit can provide an accurate figure.
For a standard full renovation, work typically takes between 2 and 5 weeks depending on complexity, the materials chosen, and any plumbing or electrical work involved. We establish a realistic timeline from the estimate stage. This timeframe includes drying time for adhesives and grout — steps that can't be rushed without compromising quality.
No — not during the active renovation phase. That's the main drawback of a bathroom renovation. For Pincourt homes with only one bathroom, we plan the work to minimize the inconvenience — we can often schedule phases so basic sanitary fixtures are usable quickly. If you have a second bathroom, coordination is simpler. This is something we discuss openly during planning so you know exactly what to expect.
It depends on the condition of the existing elements and the scope of work you want. Sometimes, a bathtub in good condition can be kept and the renovation can focus on the rest. But in the majority of bathrooms in Pincourt homes from the 70s to 90s, a full demolition is recommended — because it allows us to inspect the structure, correct existing issues, and start from a sound base. Keeping an old vanity in a fully renovated bathroom often highlights the contrast unfavorably. We give you honest advice on what makes sense to keep and what should be replaced.
Yes, it's doable. Moving a shower drain or repositioning a toilet involves work under the floor — sometimes quite extensive depending on the existing plumbing configuration. This is a decision made with full knowledge during planning, with costs clearly established upfront. We assess feasibility and cost during the initial visit.
Yes. If your bathroom is in good overall condition but the tile is damaged or you simply want to modernize the look, we can do targeted tile replacement — floor, shower walls, or both. We assess the condition of the existing substrate before starting to ensure the new tile will adhere properly.
Yes — it's one of the renovations with the best return on investment in residential real estate in Pincourt and Vaudreuil-Soulanges. A renovated, modern bathroom is one of the first things potential buyers evaluate during showings. According to current estimates in the Quebec market, a well-executed bathroom renovation can generate a return of 60 to 80% at resale — on top of the immediate benefit of a functional, enjoyable space every day in Pincourt.
You can choose your tile yourself at a supplier of your choice, or we can point you toward suppliers in the Vaudreuil-Soulanges and West Island area based on your taste and budget. We give you the exact dimensions and quantities needed for your purchases. If you want us to handle the ordering, we can do that too. What matters is that materials are confirmed and available before work begins — not ordered at the last minute mid-project.
