Hello everyone,
I’m interested in a terraced house from 1962 with about 110m² (1,184 sq ft) of living space and am seriously considering starting negotiations with the seller. Before that, I would like to roughly estimate the renovation costs.
The roof is finished and watertight. The basement is completely dry. The seller provided me with information about when the roof, water pipes, heating system (gas boiler), etc., were renewed (unfortunately, I don’t have my notes with me right now). However, I cannot estimate when the gas boiler will need to be replaced or when the roof will require refurbishment again. Is there a general guideline or approximate schedule for estimating this?
Additionally, the interior of the house is from the 1960s…
Accordingly, we want to completely renovate the interior:
How can I create a cost estimate for this? Are there any reference prices available? I don’t want to call around to various companies right now, as the usual response is “we need to have a look first.”

Additionally, the interior of the house is from the 1960s…
- Wood panels on the ceilings
- Fully tiled floors
- Brown doors
- Guest toilet tiled in green
- And the electrical wiring from 1964...
Accordingly, we want to completely renovate the interior:
- Rewiring the electrical system (I will probably do the wiring myself, so only material costs apply)
- The water pipe to the kitchen (ground floor) is still made of lead (all others are plastic)
- Replacing door leaves and frames
- Completely renovating the guest toilet (approx. 5m² (54 sq ft))
- Removing the floor tiles and replacing them with parquet flooring
- Removing the wood panels from the ceilings and smoothing the plaster
How can I create a cost estimate for this? Are there any reference prices available? I don’t want to call around to various companies right now, as the usual response is “we need to have a look first.”

I didn’t want an assessment about what or where there might still be hidden defects in the property...Then you should have posted your question on Ebay Classifieds or MyHammer. Our users want to help, not sell worthless items

I think we have gone way too deep into the topic. Originally, I just wanted to know if there is a guideline for renovating individual items—for example, 1 sqm (11 sq ft) of new parquet flooring costing 50€, 1 sqm (11 sq ft) for plastering and painting 70€, 1 door plus door frame 300€, and so on.Haha; 50€ for parquet flooring. At that price, the wood is barely even cut.
But back to the topic. Without seeing the property, you can only guess roughly. And we don’t know your exact requirements either. For example, a bathroom can cost anywhere from 10,000€ to 30,000€.

Bauexperte30 Jun 2016 22:32Ok –
the cost per square meter of installed tile varies depending on the share of materials, ranging from €70.00 to €360.00.
The cost per square meter of hardwood flooring, depending on the material, ranges from €90.00 (floating installation) to €360.00 (glued down).
Does this really help you now?

For example, a bathroom can cost between 10,000 and 30,000€ My brother bought and installed parquet flooring two years ago, and it cost 30€ per square meter (about 3.3 square feet). That was already good quality parquet. I added 20€ for higher-quality material, so why do you find the price unrealistic? What do you mean by saying the wood isn’t even harvested for that price?

Okay –
the cost per square meter (installed) for tiles ranges between €70.00 and €360.00, depending on the material proportion.

BauexperteYes, that helps me, thank you very much!
