When it comes to renovate the house, many people wonder if it is better to make a complete reform or a reform by parts. There is no doubt that both options have their advantages and disadvantages, and the choice will depend on several factors, such as the state of your home, the urgency of the reform, your available budget and your personal preferences.
In this article, we explained the advantages of a integral reform and gave you several tips to make it a success. Today, we will compare both types of reforms and we will detail everything you should consider before choosing the one that suits you. Let’s start!
Comprehensive vs. piecemeal reform
A complete renovation consists of modifying the entire property, both visible and hidden elements, such as electrical and plumbing installations. This type of reform is essential if the house is very deteriorated or if you want to adapt it to your needs or new tastes. An integral reform allows to unify the style and functionality of the whole house, as well as to make better use of space and improve insulation and energy efficiency.
However, a complete renovation also has its drawbacks. In general terms, it requires a greater economic investment, a longer execution time than a partial reform and implies greater inconvenience for the owner, who will have to leave the house during the process.
A piecemeal reform consists of intervening only in some areas or elements of the house, such as the bathroom, the kitchen, the floor or the windows. This type of reform is only suitable if you only want to make small aesthetic or functional changes in any room of your house.
However, a piecemeal renovation can be more expensive in the long run than a comprehensive renovation, since economies of scale are lost and unforeseen expenses can be generated. On the other hand, it can cause a lack of harmony between the different spaces of the house and make it difficult to adapt to regulatory or technological changes.
Turnkey reforms
As you know, in VadeCasa I+ we work with turnkey projects, so that as a client you do not have to worry about anything. We take care of the start, development and completion of the renovation, including the architecture, construction, administration and even the interior design phase. However, in order to manage the entire project, there are certain responsibilities that you as a client must take into account:
- The VadeCasa I+ team must have easy access to the construction site.
- Provide us with all the necessary documentation to obtain permits and building licenses.
- Comply with the previously agreed payment schedule.
We’ll take care of the rest!
As you can see, reforming a house in parts or as a whole has its advantages and disadvantages, although in VadeCasa I+ we always opt for the integral reform, asingle work to get the house of your dreams! When you have a project in mind, it is much more efficient to do it in a general way than to adapt it to different spaces individually. It is very possible that a few small renovations do not meet your needs or you may end up wanting to do more renovations in the near future. A comprehensive reform will help you save on future reform costs and also, you will have a general harmony for your entire home.
