In this article, we’ll show you the impact of a full renovation through concrete examples of projects before and after, and we’ll explain the complete process of a full renovation.
1. Introduction to Full Renovations
What is a full renovation? A full renovation involves a complete renewal of a space, which can encompass everything from layout and finishes to, in some cases, the structure. The exact scope depends on the client’s needs and the condition of the existing space.
Benefits of a full renovation:
- Space Optimization: Make the best use of every square meter.
- Aesthetic Update: Modernize design and decor.
- Functionality Improvement: Adapt the space to current needs.
- Value Increase: Raise the property’s market value.
2. The Full Renovation Process
The process of a full renovation may seem overwhelming, but with proper planning and a professional team, it can be an exciting and rewarding experience. Here are the key steps we follow at ADR Projects to ensure the success of every project:
2.1. Initial Assessment and Planning
- Meeting with the client: Understand the client’s needs, desires, and goals.
- Space Inspection: Assess the current conditions and identify structural issues.

2.2. Project Development

2.3. Execution of Work

- Construction: Perform structural, electrical, plumbing, and other necessary work.

2.4. Final Inspection and Handover

Case Studies: Before and After
Nothing illustrates the impact of a full renovation better than seeing exact detailed results. Here we present an example of a project carried out by ADR Projects, showing the space’s condition before and after our intervention:
Case: Renovation of a Rural House
Before: The first floor of this rural house was underutilized. It had three bedrooms, a bathroom, part of a storage area, and a hallway, all of which were very small, dark, and largely unused. The old drop ceilings contributed to a feeling of oppression and darkness.
Renovation Process: Together with the client, we conducted a detailed visual inspection and noted several important points to consider for the redesign. In this particular case, initial plans were drawn up, but much of the work was adjusted on the go, as the client wanted to be involved in each step of the process and to make decisions based on discoveries and emerging needs.
Key Interventions:
- Space Redesign: We transformed the three small bedrooms and bathroom into a large, magnificent suite. We also included a spacious dressing room and a mezzanine to maximize vertical space usage.
- Ceiling Update: The old drop ceilings were removed, and new ceilings were installed, providing greater height and a sense of openness.
- Material Selection: We used materials the client found as the work progressed, adding a unique and personal touch to every corner of the new space.
After: The result was spectacular. The new suite is bright, spacious, and functional, with a design that harmoniously combines rustic and modern elements.
