Which page to choose
These pages are about the inside of the house. The roof, facade and foundations are other work, and we do not describe them here. If you need only one room, for example a bathroom or kitchen, see the room pages too; they apply to both an apartment and a house.
Private house renovation is the largest job: in an old house the finish is removed down to the structure, the wiring and pipes are changed and the floors, walls and bathroom are built anew. It also covers when a renovation needs documents.
Summer house renovation is about a seasonal house that is not heated in winter. Finishing materials have temperature and humidity requirements, so it matters when and how the house can be heated during the work.
Attic renovation covers rooms under the roof: plasterboard walls and sloping ceilings, partitions, floors and finishing, as well as converting a loft into a living space.
Līvāni house renovation is interior work in an older private house, where the structures and materials can differ from house to house, so they have to be found out first.
Sauna finishing is the interior work for a sauna, washroom and rest room in a house or a separate building; in the washroom, waterproofing is decisive.

House renovation cost
- Painting walls or ceilings: from €4/m².
- Skimming walls or ceilings: from €10/m².
- Tiling: from €24/m².
- Laminate flooring: from €6.50/m².
- Plasterboard partition wall: from €12/m².
- Plasterboard or suspended ceiling: from €15/m².
- Bathroom renovation (all work): from €3,000.
Prices are for labour. Materials are calculated separately in the estimate. Construction waste removal is not part of the renovation estimate. The cost of a house renovation is a list of work multiplied by the area, with materials separately. The price is changed by the area in m² and the number of rooms, whether the renovation is cosmetic or full, the condition of the walls, floors and ceilings, whether the wiring and pipes are changed, and the chosen finish.
Example: a 15 m² room with 40 m² of wall: skimming 40 × €10 = €400 and painting 40 × €4 = €160, total from €560. Laminate in the same room: 15 × €6.50 = from €97.50. All prices: apartment renovation prices.
What is different in a house from an apartment
A detached house usually has no apartment owners' association and building manager, so the approvals needed in an apartment because of common property are usually not relevant. The building regulations, however, apply to all buildings.
- For interior work that does not involve renovation, reconstruction or demolition, construction documents are not needed.
- If the work changes the volume of the building or reinforces load-bearing elements, it is a reconstruction; replacing worn load-bearing elements is a renovation. This work needs documents, and the work starts only after the building board's mark.
- Wiring is installed under the supervision of a certified construction specialist; when it is rebuilt in an existing building, residual current protection is needed.
- Within one room, a gas hob and other appliances without a flue may be replaced or moved in agreement with the gas supplier. An appliance with a flue needs the supplier's permission and a certificate on the condition of the flue and ventilation ducts even in the same room. Moving to another room needs the gas supplier's technical conditions and a building design; the solution for moving gas pipes is prepared or approved by a certified person. Gas work is not part of the renovation estimate.
Which document is needed for your particular house depends on the building and the work; ask the building board of your municipality. If approval is needed, write that in the request.
