COTE TRAVAUX

What COTE TRAVAUX does

Côté Travaux (legally SAS Côté Travaux) is a Lyon-based, founder-owned interior renovation contractor founded in 2014 that delivers turnkey second-fix (second œuvre) renovation services to homeowners and professionals in Lyon and the greater Lyon metropolitan area. The company's service portfolio spans apartment and house renovation, bathroom renovation, flooring installation (tile, parquet, PVC), wall work and drywall partitioning, electrical and plumbing network creation or modification, painting, and kitchen technical preparation. Projects are delivered on a quote-based, one-time-project basis following an on-site technical visit, with a single dedicated site manager overseeing each engagement from assessment through handover, supported by a 10-year decennial warranty.

The business model is direct-to-consumer and project-based, with no disclosed subscription, retainer, or recurring revenue component. Customer acquisition relies on a Wix-hosted website with a quote request form, a dedicated phone line, local SEO targeting Lyon renovation searches, and an Instagram presence (@cote_travaux). The customer base is split between particuliers (homeowners/property owners) as the primary segment and professionnels (businesses) as a secondary segment, with no named enterprise clients, no B2B contracts, and no recurring-account relationships evident. Pricing is quote-based and not publicly disclosed; quotes are delivered within approximately one week of request.

Côté Travaux has operated since 2014 with 1–10 employees and a 2,000 euro share capital, with no institutional funding, no parent company, no M&A activity, and no disclosed revenue. Operational delivery is supported by a network of supplier partners (La Plateforme du Bâtiment, Richardson, Envie de salle de bain, La Seigneurie, Sol Mur) and professional affiliations (CAPEB) and insurance (MAAF Pro). Management consists of Gaillard Thomas as Directeur de la publication and Laurent GAILLARD as Chargé d'affaires. The company has cumulatively delivered to 170+ private clients in the Lyon region.
