How much will my project cost?

That will entirely depend on what your project entails. The timeline, labour, materials, specialists and consents required to carry out your project will all be major cost influencer. For example, a basic kitchen remodel, that retains its original layout, can be achieved for as little as $20,000 - $30,000. For a new layout and extension work, you could be looking at spending more like $50,000 - $100,000+. The same goes for creating indoor/outdoor flow in living spaces. Then again, creating indoor/outdoor flow can be as simple as installing French doors - this can be achieved within a $10,000 - $20,000 budget.   
*Please be advised: these costs are rough estimates only. For a quote accurate to your project, please consult a renovation specialist.

Will Refresh take care of any council applications required for this project?

Refresh will take care of every stage of your renovation, including building consent applications. Rest assured, your project will be designed and built to the highest standard.

How should I approach a villa renovation?

Built in New Zealand toward the beginning of the 20th Century, villas tend to come with intricate detailing and history. For these reasons, your first step should always be to check whether or not your villa is a heritage listed property. If it is, you will need to seek permission from Heritage New Zealand before making any major changes - Refresh can take care of this for you. Many villa-owners opt to keep the exterior facade of their property as well as a few character details while modernising certain aspects of the rear and interior.
