I actually intended on doing a cost round-up of each room as we finish it, however we’re yet to fully complete a room (although the bathroom is ridiculously close!) so I thought it might be a good idea to do a yearly cost-round up as well and what better time than the very end of 2015?
So, what have we spent over the last year? I’m actually going to include the last few months of 2014 in this cost round-up as well since I didn’t do one for the first few months of renovation which we started at the end of 2014. So, here we go…..
Total Renovation Costs 2015: £2916
Total Spend on Buying New Tools £373
Total Spend on new Furniture & Furnishings £787
I’ve listed these separately as they’re all items that we get to keep should we ever sell up and move. However they are still very related to our renovation as without new tools we wouldn’t have got very far. And likewise without new furniture/furnishings our rooms would be pretty empty! OK.. so most of them are still very empty, but you get my point right?! 😉
I’m quite surprised by the low cost of DIY tools. I feel like we’ve bought LOADS, but I guess most of them cost less £10 each so we’ve done pretty well here!
Most expensive purchases of 2015?
Do you track your spending during your renovations?
