Renovation is a great option for people who love where they live but have outgrown the older home they currently live in while also boosting the value and street appeal of your home.
The budget for a home renovation depends on a range of factors such as the scope of the renovation, quality of fittings and materials used and labour costs to name a few. Renovation consultants specialise in premium renovations that transform whole houses, so the budgets for these types of renovation will tend to be more than simple single room renovations such as bathrooms and kitchens. Talk with a renovation professional from Renovare to start the process of setting a manageable budget for your renovation.
There are many people calling themselves Interior Designers who are not qualified but may have a natural flair for putting colours and material together i.e. an interior decorator.
A good Interior Designer will have spent 4 years at University. The course they will have studied is now called Interior Architecture, which combines the structural elements of a building with decoration. This is not to be confused with an Interior Design course which studies Interior Decoration. After University the designer will seek to join a good Interior Design Company.
So first check the Interior Designer's qualification and secondly look at past projects they have been involved in.
Interior Design is not to be confused with Interior Decoration. Interior Design is designing the internal structure and layout of buildings to suit the new use the client requires it for.
Interior Decoration is putting together a colour scheme including all the materials and furnishings to complete an interior. An Interior Designer will include this aspect in the above.
Interior design focuses on the overall functionality, layout, and aesthetic appeal of a space, considering aspects like architectural elements, lighting, and furniture placement to create a cohesive and functional environment. Interior decoration, on the other hand, deals with the surface aesthetics of a space, including selecting colors, fabrics, and accessories to enhance the overall design scheme created by the interior designer.
Villa Renovation
Villa renovation refers to the process of updating, improving, or restoring a villa's structure, aesthetics, and functionality. It involves making modifications to the interior and/or exterior of the villa to enhance its appearance, comfort, and value.
- Assessment: Begin by assessing the condition of the villa and identifying areas that require renovation.
- Budgeting: Set a realistic budget considering materials, labor, and unforeseen expenses.
- Design: Plan the renovation design, considering both aesthetic appeal and functionality.
- Permits: Check local regulations and obtain necessary permits before starting any renovation work.
- Hiring Contractors: Hire experienced contractors or professionals for tasks beyond your expertise.
- Demolition: If needed, start with demolition work carefully, ensuring structural integrity is maintained.
- Structural Repairs: Address any structural issues like roof leaks, foundation problems, or termite damage.
- Utilities: Upgrade electrical, plumbing, and HVAC systems to meet modern standards.
- Interior Work: Focus on interior renovations such as flooring, painting, cabinetry, and fixtures.
- Exterior Work: Enhance curb appeal through landscaping, painting, and repairing exterior surfaces.
- Finishing Touches: Install finishing touches like lighting, hardware, and decorative elements.
- Inspection: Conduct a final inspection to ensure all renovations meet safety and quality standards.
- Maintenance Plan: Develop a maintenance plan to preserve the newly renovated villa's condition over time.
Home Renovation
The budget for a home renovation project will depend on several factors, including the size of the project, the materials used, and the location. A good budget should be realistic and take into account all the costs involved, including labor, permits, and unexpected expenses. A general guideline is to budget between 5% and 15% of your home's value for a renovation project, but it's best to consult with a contractor or designer to get a more accurate estimate based on your specific needs and goals.
Kitchen Renovation
Before we start the renovation project, it helps to get a good idea on the style and look that you want. You can check out magazines or Google inspirations. Even watching home remodelling shows will give you many options.
After contacting us for a consultation and quote, you will get instructions on what you should do. But in most cases, you will not be required to do anything drastic. Just clear out the area and make sure that cupboards are empty any personal belongings that can be moved will be out of the way.
We do cover the whole space where we will work on including floor coverings and drop sheets, but you can help make everything faster and easier by prepping the area first.
We will always leave the area cleaners than when we found it.
We welcome any plans from our customers. However, you don’t have to prepare one before meeting with us. It does help if you already have a plan, but we have designers who will work with you. They can assist you in generating ideas, especially if you do not have a solid plan yet.
A kitchen renovation is an essential investment on its own. However, if you would like to focus on just a few factors, we recommend cabinetry. From a functional point of view, the kitchen cabinetry is the most expensive item. Its volume alone speaks for itself. But you may also want to spend more on benchtops and flooring. It all depends on the materials and styling that you are going for.
The average return on investment will be based on how major or minor the renovation project is. However, it is common for us to start at a 55% ROI. You can tell that you can make a substantial profit when you put some effort into renovating your kitchen.
Clearly, refacing is much less expensive compared to cabinet replacements. However, this option is not recommended. If you wish to replace your drawer fronts and doors, you will also have to change the front face of the cabinet. This way, the doors and other visible portions of the cabinets will match one another.
When you choose to reface the frame, certain issues can occur. For instance, the laminate could shift or peel off. As a result, the not-so-attractive seam will show.
One more problem with refacing is that it is not cost-effective. The biggest expense is on the cabinet’s door. You are already paying for a considerable part of the cabinet’s transformation. You only need to add a little bit more to upgrade and get new cabinets.
Bathroom Renovation
Absolutely! We refurbish kitchens and laundry rooms, as well. If you have two bathrooms, we can renovate both for you. It helps reduce the time, cost, and hassle of renovating the bathrooms separately.
When planning a bathroom remodel, consider factors such as budget, desired design/style, functionality improvements, space limitations, plumbing/electrical updates, and hiring reputable contractors or professionals.
Office Renovation
- Opt for budget-friendly decor: Look for affordable furniture and decorations that enhance the space without breaking the bank.
- DIY projects: Consider tackling simple renovations yourself, like painting walls or assembling furniture, to save on labor costs.
- Shop secondhand: Explore thrift stores, online marketplaces, or office furniture outlets for discounted items in good condition.
- Focus on high-impact areas: Prioritize upgrades to areas that have the most impact, such as reception areas or conference rooms, while leaving less critical spaces untouched.
- Repurpose existing items: Get creative with what you already have by repainting, reupholstering, or rearranging furniture to give it a fresh look.
- Seek out discounts and sales: Keep an eye out for sales, discounts, and clearance events at home improvement stores or office supply retailers to score deals on renovation materials.
