Get ListedRenovating a home in Ireland is an excellent way to update older properties, improve energy efficiency, and customize your living space. Whether you are stripping a Georgian townhouse in Dublin, updating a standard 1970s bungalow, or completing a deep energy retrofit to qualify for SEAI grants, finding an experienced renovation contractor is essential. Constructors.ie lists manually-vetted home renovation contractors across all 32 counties, verifying active public liability insurance (minimum €2.6 million cover).
Cosmetic renovations involve painting, flooring, and joinery updates. Kitchen/bathroom remodels replace cabinetry, sanitaryware, and adjust piping. Full gut renovations strip properties to structural blockwork.
Deep energy retrofits upgrade insulation, replace windows, install heat pumps, and maximize airtightness to achieve an A-rated Building Energy Rating (BER).
Cosmetic refurbishments cost between 600 and 1,200 euro per square metre. Medium-scale remodels range from 1,200 to 1,800 euro per square metre, while full gut renovations and deep retrofits range from 1,800 to 2,600 euro per square metre.
Renovating existing space avoids groundworks and foundations, making it approximately 25% cheaper per square metre than building a new extension.
Homeowners can access the Croí Cónaithe Vacant Property Refurbishment Grant, offering up to 50,000 euro for homes vacant for over 2 years, or up to 70,000 euro if the property is structurally derelict.
This can be combined with SEAI individual energy grants (up to 38,000 euro) and first-time self-build tax relief schemes.
Budget between €1,200 and €2,200 per square metre for a comprehensive renovation. Always maintain a 15% contingency fund for unforeseen structural repairs.
Renovating is cheaper per square metre and optimizes existing space. Extending is best if you require additional square footage (e.g., kitchen expansions).
Internal renovations do not require planning unless you are modifying a Protected Structure. External changes (like EWI or dormer windows) may require approval.
A full gut and remodel of a standard 3-bed house takes between 10 and 16 weeks depending on material lead times.
All contractors registered on Constructors.ie are manually checked for active public liability and employers' liability insurance.
Yes, the Vacant Property Grant offers up to €70,000 for eligible empty homes, and SEAI provides grants for insulation and heat pump upgrades.
