Hi, I'm Ron. A couple of years ago, I bought my dream house—a charming place near nature and the city. Except it needed serious work, and I had zero experience. The stress, the mistakes, the overwhelm — it nearly broke our finances and our relationship.
I built Remont so others don't have to go through that. Remont gives you cost estimates, a task tracker, and answers when you need them — so you can renovate with confidence.
How Much Does a Home Renovation Cost?
A typical home renovation costs between €5,000 and €50,000 depending on the room, size, material quality, and whether you hire professionals or do the work yourself. Kitchen renovations tend to be the most expensive (€8,000–€35,000), while a bedroom refresh can cost as little as €2,000–€8,000. Bathroom renovations usually fall in between (€6,000–€20,000). Labour accounts for 40–60% of most renovation budgets. Getting an accurate estimate before you start is the single most important step to avoiding surprises.
What Does a Renovation Project Include?
Every renovation is different, but most projects include these common work categories:
- Demolition and removal of old fixtures
- Structural work and wall modifications
- Plumbing and electrical updates
- Flooring installation
- Plastering, painting, and wall finishes
- Cabinetry, countertops, and fixtures
- Final cleanup and inspection

I wish I'd had this from day one.

Can You Renovate a Home Yourself?
Many renovation tasks are suitable for DIY — demolition, painting, tiling, and simple flooring are all achievable with basic tools and patience. However, plumbing, electrical wiring, and gas work should always be done by licensed professionals for safety and legal compliance. A hybrid approach — doing cosmetic work yourself while hiring tradespeople for technical tasks — is the most cost-effective strategy for most homeowners, often saving 20–40% compared to a fully contracted renovation.
How to Plan a Home Renovation Step by Step
- Define your scope — decide which rooms and which tasks you want to tackle.
- Set a realistic budget — use a cost estimator to understand price ranges for your area.
- Choose materials — budget, standard, or premium finishes affect cost significantly.
- Plan the sequence — demolition first, then structural, plumbing/electrical, finishes, and cleanup.
- Get quotes and compare — contact at least three contractors for any work you won't do yourself.
