Full renovation in Dilbeek

Renovating a house in Dilbeek from top to bottom means coordinating demolition, structure, electrics, plumbing, insulation and finishes. CULA, based in Dilbeek, does it with one point of contact and an itemised quote.

How much does a complete renovation cost?

In Belgium, a turnkey renovation (strip-out, services, finishes) is generally between €1,200 and €3,000 per m² excluding VAT: €1,200 to €1,500 for a standard renovation, €1,600 to €2,100 in the comfort range, and €2,200 to €3,000 and more at the high end. For a 150 m² house, the usual range is €220,000 to €320,000 excluding VAT. VAT is 6% for a home older than 10 years, otherwise 21%.

The houses of Dilbeek

Houses from the 1960s to 1980s in Dilbeek, Itterbeek, Groot-Bijgaarden or Schepdaal share a profile: original electrics and plumbing, weak insulation, closed-off bathroom and kitchen. A complete renovation is the chance to redo everything at once, in the right order.

A precise order of work

Demolition and clearance, structure and openings, roof and insulation, electrics and plumbing, plastering, screed and tiling, joinery, painting, fitting the kitchen and bathroom. We provide a dated schedule before work starts and update you every week.

EPC, permit and grants in Flanders

If you bought a home with an EPC label of E or F, it must reach at least label D within 6 years: a complete renovation lets you do it in one go. Structural works, an extension or a change of appearance generally need an environmental permit. Since March 2026 the Mijn VerbouwPremie for energy works is restricted to lower incomes (heat pumps excepted).

Frequently asked questions

Can I live in the house during a complete renovation?

Rarely comfortably. For a complete renovation we recommend moving out; for a phased renovation we organise the site room by room.

What comes first: roof, electrics or bathroom?

The envelope first (roof, facade, windows), then the services (electrics, plumbing), finally the finishes. Reversing the order means redoing everything.

Do I need an architect?

Not always. For an extension or structural change an architect is generally required for the permit; we can work with yours or point you to one.
