Condo Renovation RM60K Budget: What Should You Prioritise?

What RM60K May Cover for a Condo

For a condo around 900–1,200 sqft, RM60K may cover: SPC or tile flooring for the whole unit, plaster ceiling with lighting points in living and bedrooms, wall painting throughout, basic electrical points and some rewiring, and some plumbing works for kitchen and bathroom.

If your condo is in good condition and only needs a refresh, RM60K may cover more. If hacking and disposal are required, the budget may cover less.

What to Prioritise with RM60K

Prioritise the works that have the biggest impact on daily living: flooring (you walk on it every day), ceiling lighting (affects the whole feel of the unit), and electrical points (for safety and convenience).

If your condo has old wiring or plumbing issues, address those first before aesthetic works. Waterproofing for bathrooms is also important to prevent leakage to the unit below.

What RM60K May Not Cover

RM60K may not cover premium material selection, custom carpentry (built-in cabinets, wardrobes), extensive bathroom renovation with high-end sanitary ware, or kitchen cabinet installation.

If you need these items, you may need to adjust your scope or increase your budget. Use the Budget Planner to see what your budget may cover.

What to Prepare Before Condo Renovation

Check your condo management office requirements: renovation deposit, working hours, restricted works, and waste disposal rules. Prepare your floor plan, existing photos, and a list of what you want to change.

Use the Budget Planner with your condo size and scope to get a planning range before speaking to any contractor.
