Full Apartment Renovation in Reșița

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.

What to check before hiring a full apartment renovation

Never allow a wall to be removed without documented confirmation that it isn't structural
Budget alternative accommodation for 2–3 weeks beyond the team's promised date
Ask for a staged programme with dates, not just a quote — coordinating the trades is the main risk
Allow a 15–20% budget reserve for what's found after strip-out
Order windows, doors, and kitchen units immediately — lead times run 3–8 weeks
Choose all finishes before work starts, so the team isn't left waiting

Frequently Asked Questions

Which materials should be ordered earliest?

External windows, made-to-order internal doors, kitchen units, and limited-stock flooring have lead times of 3–8 weeks. Order them immediately after the programme is agreed, otherwise they become the factor delaying the entire job, regardless of the team's pace.

What warranty do I get on a full renovation?

Labour is usually warranted for 2–5 years, and some firms offer longer on concealed services. Request the warranty in writing, the handover record with any observations and, most importantly, photographs of all service routes before they were covered.

How much does a full apartment renovation cost in Reșița?

Labour for a turnkey renovation typically falls between 270 and 900 RON per square metre, depending on area and the level of finishes. For a 55 sqm two-room flat, that means 15,000–50,000 RON in labour. Materials and finishes typically add another 40–70% on top of the labour figure.

How long does a full renovation take?

A studio needs 4–7 weeks, a two-room flat 6–10 weeks, and a three- or four-room flat 10–16 weeks. These timescales include mandatory drying times that cannot be compressed: screed needs roughly a week of drying per centimetre of thickness.

What is the correct order of works?

Strip-out and removal, new partitions, electrical and plumbing services, pressure testing, plastering and skimming, waterproofing in wet areas, screed, tiling, internal joinery, decorating, flooring, electrical accessories and sanitaryware, skirting, and finally furniture. Reversing stages leads to costly rework.

Can I live in the flat during the renovation?

No, not for a full renovation. The home is left for long periods without water, power, or flooring, and dust from demolition and sanding makes the space practically uninhabitable. Budget for alternative accommodation for the whole duration, with a 2–3 week margin over the promised completion date.
