Full renovation
A full renovation brings together demolition, electrics, plumbing, finishes and joinery, often with a single main contractor keeping the project on track. Describe the property, the scope and your timeline, and experienced companies reply with an approach, references and a price. Having one point of contact keeps the whole job coordinated.
Frequently asked questions
Should I use one main contractor or hire trades separately?
A main contractor gives you a single point of responsibility who coordinates everything, which is usually less stressful. Hiring trades separately can lower the cost but demands much more of your time to manage — quotes can set out both routes.
Do I need to move out during the work?
For extensive renovations it is common to stay elsewhere during the messiest phases. The schedule in your quote will show which stages make the home unliveable so you can plan ahead.
What should the contract cover?
Look for a clear scope, a fixed price or a defined day rate, a schedule, how changes and extras are handled, and a final sign-off. A written contract protects both sides, so avoid relying on verbal agreements.
