Business premises renovation in Riga
Renovation of business premises in Riga and the Riga region is interior finishing work in offices, cafés, restaurants and stairwells: walls, ceilings, floors, partitions, doors and electrical points.

Write the type of premises, the area and the time when the premises are free.

Which page suits your premises
Office renovation is about work rooms: dividing offices with plasterboard partitions, suspended ceilings that hide cables and light fittings, floor covering and sockets for each workstation. This page also suits small service premises without wet zones.
Café and restaurant renovation is for premises with a kitchen, dishwashing and a large flow of visitors. There is more tiling and wet-zone work, and if the premises have gas appliances, the gas rules have to be followed.
Stairwell renovation is the common area of an apartment building. It is ordered by the apartment owners' association or the building manager, not by a single apartment owner, so the page also describes the decision and the sharing of costs.

How much does a premises renovation cost?
Prices are for labour. Materials are calculated separately in the estimate. A renovation of business premises is by estimate; the closest price lines are the apartment work “from” lines. An estimate is a list of work in which each job is multiplied by its area or quantity.
Example: an office of 60 m² with 150 m² of wall. Wall painting 150 × €4 = €600 and vinyl flooring 60 × €10 = €600, total from €1,200 for these two jobs.
- premises area in m² and number of rooms;
- cosmetic or full renovation;
- condition of the walls, floors and ceilings;
- whether the wiring and pipes are changed;
- the chosen finish (tiles, floor covering, doors).
All prices: apartment renovation prices.
Documents and approvals in business premises
The Building Construction Regulations provide that construction intent documents are not needed for an interior project that does not involve renovation, reconstruction, restoration or demolition work (Cabinet Regulation No. 529, sub-paragraph 7.1).
Simplified renovation is improvements that do not change the load-bearing structures, the volume or the type of use and do not affect the facade. If the type of use of the premises changes, for example an office is converted into a café, it is no longer a simplified renovation, and you should find out the documents needed from the building board or the designer. If you rent the premises, discuss the list of work with the landlord before the renovation.
Cabinet Regulation No. 529 of 02.09.2014 (“Ēku būvnoteikumi”, Building Construction Regulations), paragraph 1.¹ sub-paragraph 5 and sub-paragraph 7.1. Checked 11.11.2026.
Electricity and new workstations
In an office or café renovation the layout of workstations, tills, equipment and light fittings often changes, so new electrical points are planned before the finishing of walls and ceilings. Each point is from €12 per point. If the wiring is rebuilt, since 01.07.2025 it must be fitted with residual current protection.
Wiring is installed under the supervision of a certified construction specialist, and the tests, for example earthing and cable resistance measurements, are done by a certified electrical specialist. The Fire Safety Regulations currently in force provide for an inspection of the wiring once every 10 years with an inspection report; if the premises have no such report, write that in the request.
