When you meet with clients wishing to proceed to renovation works for their homes, what’s the first thing you do to estimate the renovation cost?
“Some clients might say they have € 10,000 to spend and decide later for a large-scale renovation. This budget means the decisions for renovation will be different compared to if they were going to sell.
For example, if they were willing list their home for sale with a real estate agent, I would suggest and indicate as a priority for renovation the external areas of their property like the front of the house – or even the living room or the kitchen. We know modern living rooms and kitchens sell houses much faster.
If a prospective buyer looks at a residential property and it has an appealing living area or modern and bright kitchen and then they get to the bathrooms but they’re not amazing, it doesn’t matter as much because these people already know they like the house.
However, if it is a ‘forever’ home, I would suggest to procced to renovation works for the most important areas for them and their family.”
“A big part of renovating is predicting the budget of the renovation works so that you can do as much as you need to do without crossing the red line. A client may have €50,000 but only want to spend €5,000 on the roof, for example.
I see a lot of people spending € 20,000 more than they should on the kitchen or in other areas of their properties. Most of them are shocked by the result, as many of those who think they’re within budget aren’t when the renovation is finished. This is the start point of sorting out their budget. What is more, they haven’t renovated all the areas of their property they want to.”
“When it comes to bathroom renovations, you’ll want to avoid making unnecessary modifications to your existing sanitaryware layout. However, you should need a certain number of square metres of tiles, shower screens, a bath, vanities and someone with a good knowledge on the bathroom plumbing.
The easiest way is to walk straight into your nearest bathroom retailer or go online and start ordering your new sanitaryware, tiles, shower screens flooring and lighting. Yet, there’s a big benefit to having someone who’s done all that before.
Do you want to try to save some costs by doing it yourself but risk going over budget or do you pay a professional to deliver the project for you and mitigate the potential of overspend?
Save yourself the hassle.
According to my experience renovating a bathroom tends to cost between $4,000 and $20,000. Replacing tiles and the plumbing system often pushes up the cost of bathroom makeovers.”
