Facade Modernisation Costs in Ghana
Facade modernisation — replacing old external cladding, windows, and doors with contemporary materials — is one of the most impactful renovations you can undertake. Costs range from GHS 800 to GHS 2,500 per square metre depending on the materials specified. Alucobond composite cladding, a popular choice in Accra, costs GHS 1,200 to GHS 1,800 per square metre installed.
Interior Renovation Costs
Interior renovations vary widely depending on the scope of work. A full interior fit-out for a 200 square metre residential property typically costs between GHS 80,000 and GHS 250,000. This includes new flooring, ceilings, partitions, kitchen, bathrooms, electrical, and plumbing upgrades.
Structural Repair Costs
Structural repairs — including foundation underpinning, column strengthening, and roof replacement — are the most expensive renovation category. Costs depend heavily on the extent of damage and the structural system involved. A full roof replacement for a 200 square metre building typically costs GHS 40,000 to GHS 100,000.
MEP (Mechanical, Electrical, Plumbing) Upgrades
Upgrading outdated MEP systems is essential for improving building performance and safety. A full MEP upgrade for a commercial building typically costs GHS 500 to GHS 1,500 per square metre, depending on the complexity of the existing systems and the specification of new equipment.
