HOW TO SAVE MONEY ON A RENOVATION

To Save money on renovations, its crucial to plan strategically and prioritize cost effective choices.

  • Start by establishing a realistic budget and stick to it throughout the project.

  • Research and compare price for materials, fixtures and appliances to ensure you get the best deals without compromising quality.

  • Consider repurposing or refinishing existing items instead of buying new ones as this can significantly cut costs. Additionally, undertake tasks that you can handle yourself, such as painting or minor repairs to reduce labour expenses.

  • Shop during sales or look for discounts on home improvement supplies.

  • Don’t settle for the first price you get for fittings and fixtures, bargain with shops and ask builders for where they are purchasing from, if necessary, opt. to buy products yourself where you can look at different places and get the best price possible

  • Research & compare builders, yes you read right, we are encouraging people to compare quotes from different companies! Make sure you check what they offer, if they provide trades, the extent of service you receive for what you are paying etc. What your priorities are for the build.

  • Finally, focus on essential and impactful upgrades rather than unnecessary luxuries to achieve a budget-friendly renovation that enhances the overall value of your home.
