Buying an apartment on the secondary market: renovation


Young people buying an apartment on the secondary market usually want to carry out a major renovation in it. They aim to make the standard of the apartment comparable to those on the primary market. And this sometimes means a really extensive scope of work, especially in apartments from the 1960s or 1970s, where nothing has been renovated before. Prospective tenants who have any idea of renovation and construction work usually want to do as many things as possible themselves, in order to save as much as possible on a professional team. However, specialized construction machinery is required for many works. Fortunately, these days you can simply rent them.

A shell apartment


In order for an apartment to start looking good, unfortunately, it first needs to be brought to a shell state. And this means, more than once, tearing off old staves or demolishing walls. You can do these activities using home methods, but they will be very labor-intensive tasks and will take a lot of time. That is why it is worth going to a company that offers rental of specialized tools. This is because many laymen are surprised that there are machines that will make their work easier. Many people also preview ideas for performing a task on the Internet, and there they learn about the existence of at least such basic equipment as an industrial vacuum cleaner.

We work on!


Once the apartment has leveled floors and walls, you can get down to further work. Many DIYers have equipment such as a screwdriver or drill, but not necessarily a saw or router.  Here, too, equipment rental may be the solution. Buying these devices is quite a burden on the wallet, and they are unlikely to be used very often by the average person. Rental can also be a lifesaver when one of our tools refuses to serve. Then you can rent them to finish the renovation as soon as possible, and only then look for a new model that you would like to buy. It's always a good idea to ask the staff before renting equipment to see if they can advise us on how to most conveniently complete the planned task.
