How Much Does It Cost to Renovate a Studio Apartment? This is one of the most common questions among people planning to renovate a new apartment. The final renovation cost depends on the apartment's size, quality of materials, labor rates, and selected interior design.
In this article, we examine the apartment renovation of a 55 m² studio apartment delivered in green frame condition in Georgia.
We will review the main renovation stages, including electrical work, plumbing, heating, bathroom renovation, painting, flooring, doors, lighting, and fixtures.
To estimate the renovation cost of your own apartment, use Datvale's Apartment Renovation Calculator to calculate the expected costs of materials and labor.
Enter the apartment area and your preferred renovation service type. The calculator estimates the cost based on the 55 m² studio apartment example in this article.
Electrical installation includes cables, circuit breakers, internet wiring, and other essential installation materials.
Electrical work is an important stage of apartment renovation because the wiring layout should be planned before finishing walls and installing fixtures.
Plumbing work includes the installation of water supply and drainage systems, floor drains, and associated components.
The exact renovation cost depends on the number of plumbing points, the layout, and the work required.
Heating installation costs in this example include the manifold, radiator valves, boiler connection components, and installation work.
You can also use Datvale's Plumbing and Heating Calculator to estimate costs for your own project.
Bathroom renovation is one of the most important and potentially expensive stages of renovating a studio apartment.
The example includes wall plastering, floor screeding, and waterproofing:
Wall and floor tiles, tile adhesive, leveling clips, grout, and tile installation:
GEL 6,500
These are rounded figures from the original example. The precise total depends on the materials and work included in the bathroom project.

Painting and wall finishing work includes primer, wall putty, paint, and labor expenses.
The final price depends on the wall and ceiling surface areas, the condition of the surfaces, and the selected finish quality.
Laminate flooring expenses include laminate materials, underlayment, and installation.
You can estimate flooring materials and related expenses using Datvale's Laminate Flooring Calculator .
Interior door expenses include the doors themselves, handles, and installation.
The number of doors, their design, material, and hardware quality affect the final cost.
Lighting expenses include chandeliers, recessed spotlights, electrical sockets, switches, and installation.
This category covers essential bathroom and heating equipment required to complete the apartment renovation.
The example includes:

After the main renovation work is completed, furniture can be another significant expense.

Use Datvale's Furniture Calculator to estimate furnishing expenses.
Based on the example of a 55 m² studio apartment in green frame condition, the overall renovation budget using standard-quality materials and labor is approximately:
GEL 40,000
If the renovation is completed by a renovation company providing full-service project delivery, the indicative cost may increase to:
Up to GEL 48,000
