A kitchen renovation starts with carefully and safely removing the existing kitchen. Then the surfaces are prepared for the installation of new cabinets, countertops, appliances, and any additional fittings. Every step is customized according to the customer's preferences to create a kitchen that is both functional and aesthetically pleasing.

In a bathroom renovation, existing surfaces such as tiles or wet room flooring are removed, along with installations like the toilet and sink.

We are happy to help you choose materials that combine both style and function.

A kitchen renovation offers many benefits. It improves the kitchen’s functionality with smarter solutions and modern equipment, and also increases the property’s value. Additionally, an updated and stylish design gives the home a more modern feel, which can make it more attractive to both you and potential buyers in the future.

An extension begins with careful planning and design of the new building section. Groundwork is then performed, including excavation and foundation preparation, to create a stable base. Once the foundation is ready, the extension is built and integrated with the existing structure to ensure a harmonious and functional result.

For extensions, a building permit is often required from the municipality, depending on the project’s scope and location. In some cases, additional permits may be necessary, such as for projects that affect nearby buildings or natural areas.

The most common extensions include expanding living rooms, kitchens, adding extra bedrooms, and garages. Larger projects, such as adding an entire floor or creating new building sections, are also popular and can significantly increase the property’s value.

A ROT project involves renovation, remodeling, and extension of existing premises and residences. For private homes, it is possible to utilize the ROT tax deduction, which provides a reduction in labor costs and makes the project more cost-effective for the customer. For more information on ROT deduction criteria, visit the Swedish Tax Agency’s website.

A ROT project requires careful planning to meet the customer’s needs and ensure high quality. This work often involves load-bearing structures that need to be reinforced or relocated, which usually means a structural engineer prepares calculations for the project. Execution is focused on precision and efficiency to deliver a result that meets both aesthetic and functional requirements.

The ROT deduction is a tax reduction that allows you to lower the cost of labor for renovation, remodeling, extension, or maintenance of private residences. This means you can deduct part of the labor costs when hiring Strandberg Byggnads, making the project more cost-effective. For more information about the criteria, visit the Swedish Tax Agency’s website.

To use the ROT deduction, you must be a taxpayer in Sweden and have paid enough tax during the year to cover the deduction. Additional criteria may apply depending on the nature of the project and the type of residence.

Calculations are detailed estimates that cover all costs and resources required to complete a construction project, from the planning stage to finalization. These calculations are essential to ensure the project stays within budget and meets all requirements.

Cost estimating during an ongoing project is called a production estimate. It involves creating detailed cost calculations that include materials, labor, transport, and other expenses, helping to keep the project within budget.

We offer a range of calculations, including: budget estimates for the planning phase, bid estimates for creating competitive proposals, and follow-up estimates to analyze and compare actual costs against the budget. We also offer fairness estimates that can be used in disputes.

We use Wikells Sektionsdata, an industry-leading tool known for its accuracy and level of detail. It is an indispensable aid for creating reliable cost estimates.

The accuracy of a cost estimate depends on: the quality of collected data, precise estimates of material and labor costs, and the use of advanced estimating tools such as Wikells Sektionsdata.
