A complete home renovation in The Hague can include demolition, structural preparation, a new internal layout, electrical installations, plumbing and drainage, bathroom renovation, ceilings, plastering, painting, flooring and final finishing. Optimum can coordinate these trades within one renovation project for houses and apartments.

What is a complete home renovation?

A complete home renovation goes beyond updating one room. Several parts of the property are renovated together and planned as one project.

This can include changing the internal layout, renewing electrical and plumbing systems, renovating the bathroom, preparing the kitchen area, replacing ceilings and completely refinishing walls, floors and woodwork.

What can be included in a full house renovation?

Complete home renovation: work by project phase

One contractor for the entire renovation

A complete renovation involves several trades that depend on each other. Electrical and plumbing work must be completed before walls and ceilings are closed, while plastering and painting follow only after the technical work is ready.

By coordinating the project through one contractor, the different activities can be scheduled in the correct sequence and the client has one central point of contact.

Renovating a house in The Hague

Many homes in The Hague have been altered several times over the years. Older electrical installations, plumbing, ceilings and previous renovations may only become visible after demolition starts.

When the whole property is being renovated, it can be practical to address technical issues at the same time instead of reopening finished walls or floors later.

Complete apartment renovation in The Hague

Complete renovations are also possible in apartments and upper-floor properties. Additional practical issues may include access, material transport, shared installations and rules set by the owners' association.

The renovation scope should therefore take both the apartment itself and the practical restrictions of the building into account.

Bought a property in The Hague that needs renovation?

The period between purchasing a property and moving in is often the best time for a complete renovation. Extensive demolition, electrical work, plumbing, plastering and flooring can be completed before furniture and occupants move into the property.

If you already have a floor plan, property listing, photographs or renovation drawings, send them together with a short description of the required work.

How does a complete home renovation work?

1. Property inspection

We review the existing property and discuss the required renovation.

2. Scope of work

The different construction, installation and finishing activities are combined into one clear scope.

3. Quotation and planning

The agreed works are translated into a quotation and practical project planning.

4. Renovation

The different trades are carried out in the correct construction sequence.

5. Finishing and handover

After finishing, the completed work is inspected and any remaining handover items are discussed.

How much does a complete home renovation cost?

The cost of a full renovation depends on the size and condition of the property, the technical work required, layout changes and the chosen level of finish.

A renovation involving only surface finishes is fundamentally different from a project that also includes new electrical systems, plumbing, bathrooms, ceilings and major layout changes. A meaningful quotation therefore requires a clear renovation scope.
