## Introduction

In 2026, renovating old houses is a priority for many homeowners wishing to enhance their property while improving their comfort and energy performance. In Bordeaux and its metropolitan area, financial aid programs, current standards, and technical requirements make the process complex. To gain clarity, it is essential to understand the available aids and rely on reliable professionals. AS RENOV, a general contractor established locally, supports every step of your project with expertise, transparency, and pedagogy.

## Why renovate an old house in Bordeaux?

Renovating an old house presents major challenges in 2026: adapting to energy standards, enhancing the property value, improving living comfort, and anticipating future regulations. In Gironde, most of the real estate stock dates back to before 1975, which often implies insufficient insulation, obsolete heating systems, or humidity issues. As an [interior renovation company in Bordeaux](https://asrenov.fr/activ-travaux), AS RENOV offers comprehensive support, from technical study to final delivery, ensuring a site that complies with current regulatory and budgetary requirements.

## Overview of the main renovation aids in 2026

Several public and private programs allow financing a portion of the renovation work for old houses. In 2026, the main aids include:

- **MaPrimeRénov’**: accessible to all homeowners, it finances works for insulation, heating, or ventilation, with variable amounts depending on income and the nature of the work. For old houses, global renovation or packages of works are particularly encouraged (official source).

- **Zero-interest eco-loan (eco-PTZ)**: allows borrowing interest-free up to €50,000 for a set of works aimed at improving the energy performance of the house ([see conditions on Service-Public.fr](https://www.service-public.fr/particuliers/vosdroits/F19905)).

- **Energy Savings Certificates (CEE)**: bonuses paid by energy suppliers for works generating savings, cumulative with other aids.

- **Local aids**: Bordeaux Métropole regularly offers complementary grants for the energy renovation of old housing. These programs evolve each year according to local policies (details on bordeaux-metropole.fr).

For a complete and updated overview, you can consult our detailed guide on renovation aids in 2026 published on the Wispra directory.

## Key steps for a successful global renovation project

Engaging in the renovation of an old house requires a structured and rigorous approach. AS RENOV prioritizes step-by-step support, ensuring sustainable results:

1. **Personalized study and diagnosis**: Each project begins with a technical assessment of the building, its constraints (structure, humidity, thermal performance), and your objectives (comfort, extension, enhancement).
2. **Development of the house plan and budget definition**: Based on the diagnosis, our technical teams propose a [custom renovation plan](https://asrenov.fr/activ-travaux) that includes all the items to be addressed as well as a transparent estimate of the [renovation price per square meter](https://asrenov.fr/faq).
3. **Preparation of grant applications**: The renovation aid programs require precise administrative procedures. Our experts assist you in assembling the files, optimizing funding, and coordinating public stakeholders.
4. **Execution of the works**: The entire site is managed by a single contact at AS RENOV, ensuring quality, compliance with deadlines, and adherence to regulations, with a systematic ten-year guarantee.
5. **Reception and follow-ups**: Upon completion, a detailed quality control is performed, and you benefit from post-project support for any questions or adjustments.

## Renovation price per square meter: benchmarks and advice

The budget for renovating an old house depends on many factors: surface area, initial condition, chosen materials, complexity of the work. In 2026 in Bordeaux, the [average price for a global renovation](https://asrenov.fr/faq) ranges between €1,200 and €2,500 including tax per square meter for a complete site including insulation, joinery, heating, and interior reorganization.

For targeted interventions, such as thermal insulation or energy renovation, costs vary according to materials (wood wool, cellulose wadding, triple glazing, etc.) and performance requirements. It is recommended to request a detailed quote, including labor costs, materials, guarantees, and administrative management of aids. For a personalized estimate, contact [AS RENOV](https://asrenov.fr/contact) directly.

## Energy renovation: strategies and sustainable materials

The energy renovation of old houses requires technical choices adapted to the existing structure:

- **Thermal insulation**: prioritize high-performance and durable materials (treated wood, bio-sourced, external or internal insulation depending on the building configuration).
- **Heating systems**: replace old boilers with high-performance solutions (heat pumps, condensing boilers, pellet stoves). The equipment must be eligible for the aids mentioned above.
- **Ventilation and airtightness**: implementing an appropriate VMC prevents humidity problems and optimizes air quality.

AS RENOV works with certified partners and commits to the quality of materials, compliance with processes, and the harmonious integration of each intervention into the initial aesthetics of the property.

## The key role of a single contact and the ten-year guarantee

The success of a renovation project relies on the rigorous coordination of the site, transparency of costs, and mastery of deadlines. AS RENOV, through its two entities Activ Travaux and Doizon, offers management from A to Z – from study, administrative procedures, to final installation.

The ten-year guarantee covered on all sites is a guarantee of security and peace of mind for homeowners, covering all potential defects or damages for 10 years. This is now an essential requirement for sustainably enhancing a property, especially in the context of resale or rental (more information on the ten-year guarantee on economie.gouv.fr).

## How to choose your interior renovation company in Bordeaux?

Choosing the right contractor is crucial. Prefer a local contact with solid references, a thorough knowledge of regional buildings, and the ability to offer tailored solutions. Administrative support (aids, urban planning), technical (plans, materials), and human (site monitoring, precise quotes) are essential criteria. AS RENOV combines the recognized expertise of its teams with the proximity of a Bordeaux-based actor committed to individuals, with a 100% transparent and personalized approach.
