One of the most common questions we hear from clients in Łódź and the surrounding areas is: "How long will it all take?" The internet is full of conflicting information – some promise "renovation in a week," while others warn of months of chaos. The truth, as usual, lies somewhere in between. Below we present real timelines for apartment renovations , based on practice rather than marketing slogans. What does the duration of an apartment renovation depend on? There is no single answer that fits every case. The duration of a renovation depends, among other things, on: the scope of work (refreshing or a complete renovation), the technical condition of the apartment, the age of the building (block, tenement, new construction), the availability of materials, the number of teams and coordination of work, decisions made "during the process." The better the renovation is planned, the fewer surprises and delays . Refreshing renovation – how long does it really take? Scope: painting, minor repairs, replacing moldings, sometimes floors or doors. Real time: ➡️ 3–7 working days What can prolong the work? lack of materials, unprepared apartment, changes in concept during the process. This is the fastest and least invasive type of renovation – ideal before selling or renting. Partial renovation – kitchen, bathroom, one room Scope: bathroom or kitchen from scratch, plastering, tiles, point installations. Real time: ➡️ 2–4 weeks Why not faster? drying time of adhesives, screeds, and waterproofing, installation work must be done in the correct order, not everything can be "sped up." Here, haste often ends with corrections. Complete apartment renovation – how long does it take in practice? Scope: electrical and plumbing work, plastering, smoothing, flooring, bathroom, kitchen, built-ins, often old installations and crooked walls. Real time: ➡️ 6–10 weeks In older tenement buildings, it can take longer – not because someone "works slowly," but because issues arise that are not visible at first glance. Stages of renovation – why does the order matter? A professional renovation always proceeds in stages: Dismantling and preparation Installations (electricity, plumbing) Plastering, smoothing, screeds Tiling, flooring Painting and sanitary installation Finishing touches and corrections Skipping or mixing stages is the shortest way to delays. The most common traps that prolong renovations changes in decisions during the work, ordering materials "at the last minute," several uncoordinated teams, lack of a clear scope of work from the start, saving on things that then need to be corrected. How to shorten the renovation time (without lowering quality)? ✔️ detailed plan before starting✔️ one reliable team✔️ materials selected in advance✔️ realistic schedule✔️ experience in similar projects This is where clients working with professionals gain the most.
