About this service

A full apartment renovation means renewing all services and finishes, from the consumer unit to the last piece of skirting, and it's the only realistic opportunity to resolve every hidden problem in an older home at once. The work begins with stripping out finishes and sanitaryware, removing debris and, where applicable, altering the layout by removing or building non-structural walls. Next comes a complete rewire with dedicated circuits, replacement of water and waste pipework, radiator installation, plastering and skimming of walls and ceilings, self-levelling screed, waterproofing in wet areas, tiling the bathroom and kitchen, laying flooring, fitting internal doors and joinery, decorating, and finally installing electrical accessories, sanitaryware, and furniture. Coordinating the trades in the correct order is what keeps the job on schedule. On SmallJobs you'll find complete teams experienced in turnkey renovations, with real reviews and competitive rates.

Frequently Asked Questions

Do I need a permit to renovate in Dorobanți?
No permit is needed for interior finishes and services. It becomes mandatory if you alter the structure — removing a load-bearing wall, changing openings in structural walls, or extending the floor area. In Dorobanți, as everywhere, the owners' association usually requires advance notice and observance of quiet hours.
Can I remove the wall between a room and the kitchen?
Only if the wall isn't structural. In frame-structure blocks, internal walls are usually non-structural and can be removed. In blocks with concrete structural walls, the work requires a technical assessment and a permit. Never let a team decide this without documented verification.
Who buys the materials, me or the team?
Common practice is for visible finishes — tiles, flooring, doors, sanitaryware, light fittings — to be chosen and bought by the client, with building consumables brought by the team. Ask for a complete materials list with quantities at the start so you can order in good time.
How is payment handled in a full renovation?
In stages, tied to the completion of verifiable phases: after services and testing, after screed and tiling, after decorating, with the final instalment at handover. Avoid large upfront payments; a reasonable advance for consumables is 10–20%. The final instalment should remain significant, as a guarantee mechanism.
What should the quote contain?
A complete list of operations with estimated quantities, unit prices for each, labour separated from materials, a staged programme with dates, payment terms, a contingency margin, and a list of excluded works. A lump-sum quote without detail makes comparison and any later discussion impossible.
What happens if unforeseen situations arise?
In older flats that's the rule, not the exception: corroded services, walls out of true by 5–8 centimetres, mould, problem floor slabs. Allow a reserve of 15–20% of the budget. The team must inform you and present the additional cost in writing before carrying out the work, not afterwards.
