Can you Knock Down Walls in a Condo?

Usually, you need permission from the condo board to knock down walls in a condo renovation.  Because most walls are considered structural, there is usually an engineer that is required to guide the wall removal process.

There are also lots of ways to open up space without moving walls.

 Sometimes colour and reorganizing interior elements can completely change the feel of a space.  We have also found that flooring and kitchen renovations can really help to give you the desire you are looking for without moving walls.

Bedrock Construction can help.  We have dealt with many of the condo boards in the city of Calgary, and if you need help let us know.

How do I Increase the Value of My Condo?

There are a few things you can do to increase the value of your condo. You could update your decor, make some repairs or remodels, or even try to attract new tenants. No matter what you do, always be sure to keep your condo in good condition and well-maintained. That way, when it comes time to sell, you'll be able to get the best price possible.

Without question, the best way to increase the value of your condo is to do a condo renovation project.  Condo renovation costs are typically in line with standard renovation costs, or less because the square footage is less.  Condominium renovations have some project limitations, and you will definitely need to get permission from your condo board, but these are all things that Bedrock Construction can help with.

Upgrades and renovations can significantly increase your condo's value. Focus on key areas such as a condo kitchen renovation or a condo bathroom renovation, as these tend to have a high impact. Consider modernizing fixtures, countertops, flooring, and appliances to attract potential buyers. Ample storage is always a plus. During your renovation you can find ways to maximize storage within your condo, such as built-in shelves, closet organizers, or additional cabinets. Buyers appreciate well-utilized space.

Condo renovation costs for your condo unit can be offset by the fact that condos are smaller.  Even though you may pay about the same per square foot, you have less of them.  Make your old condo look like a new condo with new kitchen cabinets, a new hood fan, high-quality materials and innovative designs.  Renovating a condo is a great way to increase it's value, and also increase your quality of life by feeling like you have a completely new living space.  The renovation process can be quicker than a home renovation, we can work on the estimated timeline with you and make sure that everything is as it needs to be.

Is it Worth it to Renovate a Condo?

Yes, it is worth it to renovate a condo.  Typically when it comes to sale price most condos will fall into a range based on location, age and the sale price of other condos in the building.  A renovation however can set your condo apart from other condos in the building, and also create additional value for your purchaser.

Consider your future plans for the condo. Are you planning to sell it in the near future or use it as a long-term residence? If you intend to sell, renovations could help attract buyers and command a higher sale price. On the other hand, if you plan to live in the condo for an extended period, you can enjoy the renovated space while potentially benefiting from future appreciation in value.

Obviously, people always want to know if the effort and investment they put into their home will translate when it comes time to sell.  As long as you don't price yourself out of the maximum that a particular building will go for you will definitely get value out of your renovation.

Focus on improvements that are likely to provide a good return on investment. Kitchen and bathroom renovations, for example, tend to yield higher ROI compared to more niche or personalized upgrades.

Can I Change the Ceiling Height?

No, the ceiling height is not something you can typically change in a condo renovation.  There are other ceiling-related changes that you can do, however, like removing popcorn ceilings, changing the colour of the ceiling and adding additional light fixtures or ceiling fans.

Remember that in a condo there may be working hours that are different than if you were in a normal house.  Keep in mind that other tenants are close by, and need to be considered.  Our years of experience and project management will help guide you through the process.

Can you Remodel a Condo Inside?

Yes, you absolutely can!! However, there are a number of additional steps that you need to be aware of when you set out to renovate your condo.  Everyone is free to upgrade things inside the condo, so you can paint, update lighting, change the flooring and even get new cabinets.

What you need to pay attention to however is the condo board rules, and the process that they want you to follow when it comes to renovations.  Usually, they have written guidelines for things like noise, access and garbage that you must follow or you could be facing a fine or stoppage of work.

At Bedrock Construction, we pride ourselves on our extensive expertise in condo renovations in Calgary. With years of experience, we have developed a deep understanding of working with condo boards and navigating the intricacies of condo renovations. Our primary goal is to ensure that our clients enjoy a seamless and stress-free experience throughout their condo renovation journey.

During a condo renovation, it's important to be aware of certain restrictions. Typically, there are limitations to what you can do, such as painting the exterior of your door or the outside walls of your condo.
