Home Renovation Interior Designers in Injambakkam
Some of Injambakkam's houses began as simple holiday cottages and are now being turned into full-time family homes. Renovating them well means respecting their character, such as red-oxide floors or old wooden windows, while fixing what years of salt air, sandy soil and monsoon rain have done.

Planning interiors in Injambakkam
A quiet ECR stretch with beach houses, villa communities and a creative, artsy residential crowd.
- Sandy coastal soil and older timber make termites a real concern, so anti-termite treatment of walls and floors is best done before any new carpentry is installed.
- Older houses here may have red-oxide or mosaic floors that owners want to keep, which means carpentry must be fitted without damaging them.
- Flat roofs on older beach houses can leak during the north-east monsoon, and roof repairs should be completed before ceilings and wardrobes are touched.
- Wooden windows and doors are often worth restoring, while rusted steel grills and frames usually need replacement or treatment.

Plan smarter
Five ways to keep your budget on track
- 01
Treat for termites first
Have walls and floors treated before new wardrobes, kitchens or wall panels are fixed.
- 02
Protect floors you love
Tell your designer which original floors to keep so installation is planned around them.
- 03
Fix the roof before the ceiling
Repair roof leaks and waterproofing before installing a new false ceiling.
- 04
Restore what is solid
Old teak windows and doors can often be repaired and refinished rather than replaced.
- 05
Freeze the plan before breaking walls
Finalise layouts before demolition to avoid costly changes midway.

FAQ
Questions homeowners ask
Still unsure? Our designers are happy to answer anything on a call.
What does a renovation designer check first?
We inspect for termites, roof leaks, salt-damaged plaster, wiring and plumbing condition, and discuss which original features you want to keep before preparing a design.
Can old red-oxide floors be kept?
Yes, usually. We plan carpentry and installation to protect them, and they can be polished afterwards to bring back their colour.
How are renovation costs calculated?
New carpentry follows the ranges on this page, while termite treatment, roof and wall repairs and service upgrades are quoted separately after the site audit.
Is termite treatment really necessary?
In older coastal houses with timber elements, it is strongly advised before new woodwork. Untreated termites can damage new carpentry within a few seasons.
Can I live in the house during renovation?
Sometimes, if the work is phased. Roof repairs, kitchen work and termite treatment may require short periods away from certain areas.
