You can really save money on repairs, the main thing is not to cut the “wrong” budget items.

Otherwise, warns Yulia Tychino, an expert of the online publication BelNovosti, designer, living in the apartment will become unpleasant, and the finishing will have to be replaced with a new one after a very short time.

The best solution is to plan repairs for winter.

The thing is that the cold season is not the season for repairmen. This means that you will have the opportunity to buy materials at a lower price - in winter, many construction stores reduce prices and hold sales.

In addition, in winter there is a chance to choose a better team - even those that have a queue in the spring are usually free in winter.

What else can you do? To cut costs, create a design project: a professional will help you plan the finishing and tell you where you can save.

Try to eliminate expensive but unnecessary finishing elements such as built-in shelving, multi-level ceilings, moldings, complex lighting and remodeling.

This advice should not be taken as a recommendation to lead an ascetic lifestyle - among the variety of decor, you can find those that will make the apartment cozy, but at the same time will not hit the wallet. By the way, a designer can also help with their choice.
