What You Need to Know Before Renovating an Apartment Building?

17. August, 2026

Does your apartment building need renovation, but you're not sure where to start?

In the first episode of the RENESCO podcast, company manager Edgars Augustiņš explains how building renovation works in practice — from the first conversation with residents and assessment of the building’s condition to the project, financing, construction works, and a guaranteed result.

RENESCO takes responsibility for the achieved energy efficiency and provides a 20-year guarantee. Buildings renovated in 2008 still maintain approximately 40–50% savings in thermal energy even after almost 18 years.

In this episode, we also discuss:

  • how to involve residents and start the renovation process;
  • support and benefits for renovated buildings;
  • the risks of allowing a building to deteriorate to a state of disrepair;
  • why renovating a building is often more cost-effective than demolishing it and building a new one;
  • real-life cases — from 400 kg heating boilers in apartments to buildings that have become structurally tilted.

If you have ever considered renovating your building, this episode is worth watching before making the first decision. All it takes is a group of active residents and the first call to RENESCO — the team will help you understand the next steps, assess the condition of the building, and evaluate how renovation can affect the quality of life and the future of the building.
