❓ FAQ

How much does a 100 sqm renovation cost?
At reference tiers: Budget ~$12k, Standard ~$19k, Premium ~$30k (hardworks, materials, furniture, appliances). Add 10-20% for major cities.
Why include a contingency reserve?
90%+ renovations hit surprises. Reserve 3-5% so mid-project discoveries do not stop work.
Why a demolition surcharge for existing homes?
Removing tile, ceilings, or walls costs ~10-15% of hardworks. Skipping it is the #1 reason for "lowball then markup".
