The Story: A Fresh Start for Inger-Lise in Nærum

When Inger-Lise and her son decided to renovate their 116 m² apartment in Nærum, they were full of energy and hope. They imagined a two-month process with a clear budget — a refreshed kitchen, modern bathrooms, and a brighter home overall.

But like many homeowners, they started without professional guidance. Unfortunately, their first contractor dropped the project halfway through, leaving behind an unfinished home, growing costs, and a mountain of stress. Hidden issues began to surface — including a full electrical system that needed to be replaced — and the original timeline and budget quickly spiraled out of control.

That’s when Tetromize Engineering stepped in.

Our approach

Initial Damage Control:

We started with a full review of the apartment’s condition — what was done, what went wrong, and what needed to be redone.

Transparent Planning:

We mapped out a realistic completion plan that balanced quality, budget, and timeline — bringing calm and control back into the process.

Contractor Matchmaking:

Using our network of vetted, trusted contractors, we helped Inger-Lise hire new professionals who delivered on their promises.

Cost Optimization:

We restructured the work to avoid further unnecessary expenses and helped them make smart decisions to stretch their budget.

Ongoing Support:

From material selection to schedule coordination, we stood by Inger-Lise and her son until the very last brushstroke.

The result

Today, Inger-Lise enjoys a modern, energy-efficient home that reflects her lifestyle — with beautiful bathrooms, a practical new kitchen, and safe, upgraded electrical systems. More importantly, she and her son are living stress-free in the home they envisioned from the beginning.

Final Note:

This project reminds us why early professional consulting is so valuable. But it also proves that with the right help — even halfway through — you can still turn a renovation crisis into a successful, beautiful living space.
