Home renovation in Kolkata for old houses and flats
Repairs and interiors handled together, so your older home is safe, dry and comfortable again.
Home renovation in Kolkata is different from doing up a new flat. Older homes, whether a 1970s flat in Salt Lake, a family house in Behala or a high-ceilinged building in North Kolkata, come with damp walls, tired wiring, leaking pipes and termites. Fix those first and the new interiors will last.
We handle old house renovation and flat renovation in Kolkata as one project: repairs, kitchens, bathrooms, flooring and interiors.
What's included
Depending on your home, a renovation can include:
- Inspection for damp, termites, cracks, wiring and plumbing.
- Damp proofing and waterproofing of walls, bathrooms and terraces.
- Termite treatment.
- Electrical rewiring and a new distribution board.
- Plumbing replacement with CPVC.
- Kitchen renovation with a modular kitchen.
- Bathroom renovation.
- Flooring: new tiles, marble, or restoring old floors.
- Doors and windows: repair or replacement.
- Interiors: wardrobes, TV units, ceilings, painting.
Old house renovation in Kolkata
Kolkata's older homes have character worth keeping: red oxide and mosaic floors, tall ceilings, green shutters and wooden doors. We restore what can be restored and replace what can't. Common issues we deal with:
- Rising damp on ground-floor walls.
- Terrace leaks after the monsoon.
- Termites in door frames and old cupboards.
- Aluminium or old copper wiring that can't handle ACs.
- Rusty GI pipes and low water pressure.
Flat renovation in Kolkata
Flats from the 1980s and 1990s in Salt Lake, Lake Town, Behala and South Kolkata often need the same work: rewiring for ACs and geysers, new plumbing, bathroom waterproofing, modular kitchens and better storage. Flat renovation also means working with the housing society's rules on timings, debris removal and lift use, which we plan for before starting. A full house renovation is usually done room by room so the family can stay at home.

What affects the cost
- Condition of the home: the more repairs, the higher the cost.
- Area and number of rooms.
- Scope: repairs only, or repairs plus full interiors.
- Materials and finishes.
- Access: upper floors without lifts and narrow lanes add labour.

It depends on size and condition.
Can you restore old mosaic or red oxide floors?
