This type of renovation is typically carried out by homeowners or property owners to update, upgrade, or customize their homes according to their preferences, needs, or changing lifestyle. Independent houses, also known as single-family homes, offer more autonomy and flexibility in terms of renovation compared to properties within multi-unit buildings.
