Interior renovation & full refurbishment
A flat, a retail unit, an office. We carry out the trades we do ourselves and coordinate the ones we buy in. You deal with one person.
On a refurbishment with four separate trades, the client spends most of their time not on decisions but on phone calls. The screeder waits on the plumber, the decorator waits on the drylining, and nobody owns the problem when two dates collide. The time is lost in the gaps between firms, not in the work itself.
One named contact who owns the programme and coordinates the trades. Reachable on WhatsApp and by email, usually answering within a few hours. No ticketing system, no rotating responsibility.
Strip-out, drywall, jointing, flooring and the final clean are ours. That is the bulk of the programme.
Electrical, plumbing, heating and windows via regional partner firms we have used for years. You contract them directly; we align the dates.
Realistic durations with float built in for drying times and delivery slippage. You get it in writing before work starts.
Joint walk-through, defects list with deadlines, photo record sent digitally the same day.
We walk it, measure up and listen to what you want. It takes 60 to 120 minutes depending on size.
Broken down by trade, with a start date and a planned handover date. Both binding, not indicative.
Strip-out, first fix, fit-out, finishes, floor. Weekly short update with a photo, even in weeks when nothing notable happened.
Post-construction clean with second pass, then handover. Keys, snagging list, documentation.
A full refurbishment excluding bathroom and rewiring starts at EUR 350 per sqm net of floor area. With a new bathroom, new wiring and new floors the realistic range is EUR 750 to 1,400 per sqm net. A straightforward renovation with decoration and flooring starts at around EUR 120 per sqm net.
The range is wide because refurbishment depends on scope. After the site visit it becomes a binding quote, at a fixed price or by the hour depending on the shape of the job.
All prices net, VAT not included.
An 80 sqm flat without the bathroom typically takes four to six weeks; with bathroom and rewiring, eight to twelve. The programme is rarely driven by labour but by drying times for screed and plaster and by lead times on sanitaryware and windows. Both are in the programme with float.
For a room-by-room renovation yes; for a full refurbishment we advise against it. Water and heating are off for days at a time, the bathroom is periodically unusable, and dust control only works if doors stay shut. Where the property is occupied we deliberately plan longer and price higher, because everything has to be secured and tidied every evening.
Every deviation from the quote is put to you in writing as a variation and has to be approved before the work is carried out. The exception is a hazard, for example an exposed corroded pipe. There we act immediately and inform you the same day. What we do not do is send an invoice at month end with items that were never discussed.
Not ourselves; those are licensed trades with their own registration. We work with fixed partner firms from the Gütersloh district that you contract directly. The advantage for you is that your contract and warranty sit with the specialist, and we still handle the scheduling.
Two minutes of form, then we get in touch to arrange the survey. Or send a short WhatsApp message, which is the fastest of all.
