How much will my villa renovation cost in Auckland?

Our Auckland Central teams have carried out villa modernisations and restoration projects ranging from $100,000 - $500,000* in cost. An important thing to note when renovating old villas is that older homes tend to come with an additional amount of repair work - and this will add to costs. 

Another aspect to keep in mind is that you might not necessarily need to renovate every area of your home at once. If you are working within a limited budget, your Renovation Consultant will work with you to help you figure out your priorities and create a renovation plan that is practical to you and your lifestyle. For a cost estimate accurate to your ideas, please get in touch.

Bungalow Renovation Cost in Auckland Central

The cost to renovate your bungalow can vary depending on a number of factors. These historic homes can come with some of the issues we outlined earlier in the article, so be aware of potential issues with insulation, foundation, and electrical wiring that could arise.

This 1930s Sandringham bungalow was already in great shape and did not require repairs. Rather, the homeowner prioritised premium materials, modern appliances, spacious outdoor deck, and custom cabinets and wardrobes for a price that came to $225,000.

Chiraag (Corey) Rambhai

Corey and his team were fantastic to deal with from start to finish. The renovation service was professional, and was well laid out and managed through online software. Renovating in an apartment comes with it's barriers and obstacles, which we were all collectively able to overcome. Was kept informed with the project throughout. We renovated a floor, laundry room, wardrobe and sun seat. Would recommend anyone to use Corey and his team for any mid to large renovation projects.

Why should I use a Renovation Consultant?

Working with a professional will alleviate much of the stress that comes with a renovation. There’s a lot to manage, from logistics like permits to the limitations that come along with renovating within an apartment building. Having an apartment specialist navigate these difficulties for you is invaluable.

What services do Renovation Consultants offer?

These experts can help you brainstorm ideas for your renovation, build your budget plan, source the best contractors for the job, and take care of all council permits and paperwork required. They serve as project managers who oversee the entire renovation and keep open lines of communication with you along the way.

What is your main reason for wanting a full home renovation?

There are a number of things to consider when renovating a house, and this question is one of them. It’s important to consider your main reasons for wanting to renovate in the first place. It could be to enhance your lifestyle or to prepare your home for a competitive price on the market.

Learn our five key considerations when renovating an older home in Waikato (though these points could apply to any home in New Zealand!). When you’re ready to call on a home renovation planner to make your vision come to life, get in touch with the team at Refresh Renovations.

What factors should I consider when planning a bathroom renovation?

If you’re thinking about renovating your bathroom, ask yourself the following questions:

  • What design style are you drawn to? (e.g. minimalist, modern, classic)
  • Have you considered a budget? Do you need to talk to a bank or mortgage broker about finance?
  • Have you checked your calendar for the most convenient time of year to renovate your bathroom?
  • If you have only one bathroom in your house, have you considered an alternative solution whilst the bathroom is undergoing the renovation?
  • How much space is there to work with, do you need to extend or is there sufficient space available to achieve what you are looking for?
  • How much storage is required?Having this information ready will make it that much easier to plan your bathroom remodelling project with our team.

View our Bathroom Renovations Checklist page for more information.

Will I be able to live in my home during the complete home renovation?

At Refresh, our Renovation Consultants work to make sure your renovation involves minimal interference with your daily life. However, with a full home renovation you can expect a lot more going on in your house that might require you to find another place to stay during the renovation.

Your Renovation Consultant will be transparent about a timeline and will work to get you back into your home as soon as possible. After all, the benefits from a complete home renovation make the process worth it!

What if there are unexpected issues uncovered during the entire home renovation?

There are a few fears and apprehensions when it comes to home renovations, and unexpected issues are one of them. Such issues could potentially delay your renovation or increase costs. However, working with a dedicated Renovation Consultant means that you have a project manager who will do all they can to stick close to your original timeline and allocate your budget accordingly.

You might also consider investing in a home renovation insurance policy that could protect you if unforeseen issues do arise.

What are the latest trends in kitchen design?

Modern kitchens with neutral colour palettes, plenty of natural light, and space-saving storage solutions are popular choices at the moment. In addition, white cabinetry, display shelving, and innovative lighting still reign supreme in terms of design choices.

What are some popular design ideas for apartments in New Zealand?

While you can find larger flats, studio and one-bedroom apartments are typical sizes for  New Zealand, especially in a CBD. With that in mind, design should focus on taking advantage of space since there generally isn’t the option to extend. Multi-functional living spaces such as a guest room turned home office do just that. 

New build apartments throughout New Zealand are known for being basic, and while that may sound like a bad thing, it provides homeowners with a blank canvas to completely customise their flats and transform them into their dream homes by imparting a bit of personality and character.

How much would a full house renovation cost? 

Several factors such as project size, scope, and choice of materials can influence your complete home renovation cost. After all, an entire house renovation requires the involvement of several different trades to renovate your kitchen, bathrooms, living areas, outdoor areas, and more. 

Costs will also depend on the kinds of changes you wish to see in your home. These changes may be merely superficial, or they could be more involved when it comes to changing entire layouts. Get in touch with a local Renovation Consultant to get an idea of how much it would cost to renovate your home.
