WHERE WE COME FROM

Started small. Never stopped growing.

In 1987, the Zugmayer-Preleitner family founded the company Remaill-Technik in Austria – at that time specialising in the repair and restoration of bathroom surfaces. The idea was simple and convincing: Why replace a bathtub when you can refurbish it more affordably and quickly?

This core idea still drives bazuba today. What began as a one-man business has become a franchise system with locations in Austria, Germany, and Italy. What has changed: the name, the network, the methods. What has remained the same: the commitment to solving real problems honestly.

FREQUENT QUESTIONS ABOUT BAZUBA

What people want to know about bazuba.

"When was bazuba founded and what was the company previously called?"

bazuba was founded in Austria in 1987 under the name Remaill-Technik. In Germany, the company has operated as Bad-Technik since 2003. The rebranding to the current brand bazuba took place in 2022.

"In which countries does bazuba have locations?"

bazuba currently has over 15 franchise locations in Austria, Germany, and Italy. All locations operate according to the same quality system and offer the same services and guarantees.

"What does bazuba mean by 'intelligent bathroom renovation'?"

Intelligent bathroom renovation means preserving existing structures instead of tearing them out. bazuba works with coatings, seamless surfaces, and targeted partial renovations – this is faster, cleaner, and usually significantly more cost-effective than a traditional full renovation.

"Is there a guarantee on bazuba work?"

Yes. bazuba offers an 8-year guarantee on coatings against peeling and yellowing. In addition, there is a fixed price after the inspection: you know in advance what it will cost, no hidden costs.

"Is bazuba really a family business?"

Yes. bazuba is run by the Zugmayer-Preleitner family – since its founding in 1987, across three generations. This family background shapes the company culture: short lines of communication, clear decisions, personal responsibility.

"Does bazuba also offer franchise opportunities?"

Yes. bazuba is an active franchise system. The first partner started in 2000. Today, the network includes over 15 independent locations, all operating according to the proven bazuba system. Further information can be found at bazuba.world/careers.
