Interior fittings for new buildings and renovations

Interior finishing – The interior finishing of the house includes the design of the walls, ceilings and floors. In addition, the installation of the electrical, heating and plumbing systems takes place. Stairs and doors are installed and fixed fixtures are incorporated in the kitchen and bathroom. When building a house, interior finishing takes about the same amount of time as the construction of the building up to the topping out ceremony. The interior fittings can be very individually designed by the builder. Not only with a new building, but also in the context of a reorganization a new planning of the interior fittings is possible. If an extensive renovation with a change in the internal structure of the house is planned, the house should be empty for the period of the construction work. Otherwise, the renovation will be difficult.

Interior fittings also determine the value of the house

Large investments in the interior of the house have a value-increasing effect when selling. If you are planning to sell a house, your investments will be taken into account in the exposé. Many prospective buyers prefer to purchase a home that requires little or no renovation work. It is important that potential buyers get a transparent picture of the property. Opt for a stress-free sale where you get a fair market price for your property.

Technical installations: heating, water, electricity

In the course of the interior construction, all technical systems in the house are installed. This includes the heating system with all pipes and the radiators, which are integrated in every room. If you have opted for underfloor heating, this will be integrated into the rooms according to your specifications. The water circuit is installed in a smaller area of the house. It includes the kitchen, bathroom, toilet and, if required, rooms in the cellar or the utility room. A water connection in the garden can also be laid if desired.

Installation of lighting system and socket circuit

The installation of the electrical system is a very important part of the interior design. This area includes the lighting system and the socket circuit. In new buildings and extensive renovations, additional wiring is laid for the installation of a network. In all rooms there are sockets where stationary devices can be connected to the network. It is no longer necessary to lay cables. The cabling is connected to the router so that access to the Internet is guaranteed at all sockets.

Design of ceilings, walls and floors

After the construction of the house, the walls are in an unplastered state. In a first step, they must be plastered or smoothed with plaster. Only then is the design with paint or wallpaper. The ceiling can also be wallpapered or painted after the plaster has been applied. Alternatively, a design with wood or with panels is possible. Opt for a uniform look throughout the house or choose an individual design for all rooms. There are no limits to the creativity of the builder.

Individual floors: wood, carpet, laminate

An individual design of the floors is also possible. Besides classic carpeting, wood is very popular. Plank flooring is available in light and dark woods. Many builders choose parquet. It consists of small sticks. Real hardwood is used as the material. A sealant makes the parquet easy to maintain and very robust. A cheaper alternative to parquet is laminate. There are variants made of real wood and plastic. You can choose from many different colours. So you can adapt the design of the floor very well to the interior.

It doesn’t matter whether you are overseeing the construction of a new house or opting for the renovation of an existing building. The building materials used are usually used for decades. They are exposed to a very high degree of stress, both on the outside and inside.
