Why Do Home Renovations So Often Overrun?
Because older houses hide problems that only appear once the work starts, and most builders price before anyone has looked properly.
What usually happens
1
Priced on assumptions. Costed before anyone surveys the house, so the budget moves once work starts.
2
Surprises when it opens up. Hidden damp, wiring or structural issues, with nothing set aside.
3
Drags on. Stalls waiting on trades while you live in a building site.

What Will Your Renovation Cost?

The estimate uses real Dublin renovation costs and the factor that moves the price most: how deep the work goes, from new finishes to moving walls and re-servicing the house.

- FAQ
Home Renovation Questions, Answered
Usually not. Work inside your existing house is generally exempt. You need permission for external changes, a protected structure, or a change of use, and we confirm where you stand when we visit.
A full renovation usually costs €2,500 to €3,000 per square metre, rising above that for structural work or a deep energy retrofit, and lower for a lighter refit. The biggest variables are how deep the work goes and what the house is hiding. A visit gives you an exact figure before you commit.
Most full renovations run three to six months on site, though the exact programme depends on size and how much structural work is involved. You receive a detailed timeline after the survey.
The heaviest phases are usually easier with the house empty, but not always. Where you need to stay, we phase the work and plan the disruption with you up front.
Yes. Insulation, heating and efficiency upgrades can be built into your renovation, and we are SEAI registered for grant-supported works. Folding them into the main project is usually cheaper and less disruptive than doing them separately.
