室内装修
Like additions and new homes, renovations come in many shapes and sizes. The difference is that the work is kept within the confines of the original structure. Sometimes the zoning of a property won’t allow an addition to be built, and sometimes it just makes more sense to improve how an existing space functions. Renovation is often the most cost-effective solution since earthwork, 基金会, 外墙, and roofs are typically not involved. Simply opening up spaces and reconfiguring traffic flow is a popular renovation that can really add value to a home and improve the quality of living.
