Comprehensive Home Renovation: Beyond Construction, Designing How We Live
A comprehensive renovation isn’t just about knocking down walls and replacing tiles. It’s about rethinking your space from the ground up so that it works better, looks better, and makes you feel better in it.
At Estudio Cabana, we combine architecture, design, and interior design so that the final result isn’t just beautiful, but also has a real logic behind it.
What is included in a comprehensive renovation with an architectural focus
A well-executed comprehensive renovation encompasses layout, plumbing and electrical work, carpentry, finishes, and furniture. But when you work with an architecture firm, it also includes something that many renovation companies don’t offer: a truly well-thought-out plan, complete with blueprints, carefully selected materials, and on-site supervision that oversees every step.
The difference between renovating and transforming a space
Renovating means updating. Transforming means changing the way you live. We focus on the latter: understanding how you use your home, what you have too much of, what you’re missing, and how to make the most of every square foot.
Process
How we work: from design to construction—no surprises
One of the biggest fears when renovating is the unknown: unexpected issues, delays, and budgets that spiral out of control. Our approach is designed to prevent that from happening.
Architectural Analysis and Design Phase
Before moving a single wall, we assess your space, listen to your needs, and develop a comprehensive plan—complete with blueprints, specified materials, and a fixed budget.
Comprehensive construction management
We coordinate with all the relevant agencies, monitor the situation daily, and keep you informed at all times. You don’t have to worry about a thing.
Timelines, materials, and finishes
We work with realistic timelines and high-quality materials. No empty promises and no surprises when the project is finished.
Why us
Why Work with an Architect on Your Comprehensive Renovation
Hiring a renovation company is not the same as hiring an architecture firm. Here’s the difference.
Design, Strategy, and the Big Picture
An architect doesn’t just build—he thinks. Before breaking ground, he already has a clear vision of the final result, the materials, the proportions, and how everything fits together. You can see that in the final product.
Technical oversight and coordination of trade associations
With an architect in charge, there is someone who knows exactly what needs to happen at each stage and who can spot problems before they turn into costly surprises.
Return on investment and added value
A well-designed renovation not only improves your quality of life, but also increases the value of your home. The cost of the project pays for itself.

Trato totalmente personal. Si quieres hacer un proyecto y que salga bien este es tu estudio. En nuestro caso teníamos que hacer una reforma de una casa antigua, sin que perdiese su esencia y además ampliar. Sabíamos que era algo complicado pero se encargaron de que todo saliese bien y que el proceso fuese agradable en todo momento.
Cabana no solo comprende sus necesidades, también lo inspira. Proporcionan información valiosa que ayuda a que la idea que tiene en mente cobre vida con éxito. Son profesionales, meticulosos y, lo más importante, extremadamente apasionados por lo que hacen. Se los he recomendado a todos los que conozco y seguiré haciéndolo, dado que nos ayudaron con la vivienda de nuestros sueños y estaremos siempre muy agradecidos por su talento e implicación en el proyecto!

Frequently Asked Questions About Comprehensive Renovations in Madrid
How much does a complete home renovation cost in Madrid?
The cost of a full-scale renovation in Madrid depends on the size of the home, its current condition, and the finishes chosen. As a general guideline, a full-scale apartment renovation can range from €600 to €1,200 per square meter, depending on the quality. The most important thing is to have a detailed estimate from the start to avoid surprises.
Do I need an architect for a complete renovation?
It is not always required by law, but it is highly recommended. An architect ensures that the design is well thought out, that the construction is carried out properly, and that the final result meets your expectations. For projects involving structural changes or changes in use, it is required by law.
How do I manage the construction work if I'm living in the house?
It’s common not to live in the home during a major renovation, especially if it’s a complete overhaul. In some cases of partial renovations or those done in phases, it is possible. We’ll explain this from the start so you can plan ahead.
How long does a complete renovation take?
A comprehensive renovation of a medium-sized apartment typically takes between 2 and 4 months. For single-family homes or more complex renovations, the timeline may be longer. In any case, we provide you with a schedule from day one and stick to it.
What is the difference between a complete renovation and a restoration?
A comprehensive renovation completely overhauls a home’s interior: layout, utilities, and finishes. A restoration goes even further: it may involve the building’s structure, facade, or systems. Both require technical planning and, in many cases, a municipal permit.
