Many homeowners are faced with the need to renovate their home , either because they have just purchased it and want to adapt it to their needs or because it has become outdated and they want to update it. However, carrying out a comprehensive home renovation project can become a headache for anyone.
Calculating the budget you will need to undertake the works is a complex task for which you will have to take into account aspects such as: the cost of materials, the search for the different professionals who will be in charge of the work, the design of the new layout, licenses and taxes , etc.
Luckily, there are different platforms available on the Internet that will help you get an initial idea about comprehensive renovations and their average prices , so that your home can have a new look without getting discouraged in the attempt.

According to Habitissimo, the average price of carrying out a complete renovation in our home amounts to 21,822 euros in Spain , according to the estimates provided by more than 600 construction professionals.
However, the platform reports that 69% of the costs of comprehensive renovations range between 10,180 and 39,000 euros , depending on the square footage of the home, the materials used and the number and complexity of the work to be carried out in each case.
However, if you also need the preparation of a construction project for the complete renovation, the prices rise to an average of 27,985 euros . Thus, if you want to hire the planning and execution of the works to adapt your new home or give a new look to your old flat, the average investment is between 8,900 and 60,000 euros, according to the renovation portal.
