Essential Steps for Planning a Complete Home Renovation
Are you considering a complete home renovation? Before starting, it’s crucial to clearly define several key aspects to make informed decisions and avoid unexpected setbacks. At RialtoSur, we are prepared to advise you every step of the way.
How Much Does a Complete Renovation Cost?
The cost of completely renovating a home—including windows, doors, electrical and plumbing installations, flooring, and reconfiguring interior spaces—typically ranges between 1,000 and 1,200 euros per square meter (excluding taxes). For instance, renovating a 100 m² home would have an approximate budget between 100,000 and 120,000 euros.
Typical Payment Structure
Payments are usually structured as follows:
- 30-35% at the project’s initiation.
- 60-65% through periodic payments during the construction, usually aligned with monthly certifications if the project duration is three months.
- 5% upon the full completion of the works.
When Is the Best Time for a Complete Renovation?
Although it depends on personal circumstances, it’s best to avoid holiday periods such as Christmas and summer vacations. If you decide to undertake renovations in summer, starting in August is advisable to take advantage of better availability from suppliers in September.
Tips for Increasing Your Property’s Value
A great strategy to boost your property’s value after renovation is using 3D designs that illustrate the finished home. This approach provides a clear and appealing visualization of the final outcome, facilitating pre-sale even before the project’s completion.
Choosing a Reliable Renovation Company
Hiring a trustworthy company that provides clear guarantees regarding deadlines, costs, and work quality is essential. Transparency and proven experience are vital points. With RialtoSur Constructions, you’ll find the peace of mind you’re looking for.
