This is a common question we get as a leading renovation contractor in Malaysia. A renovation is the repair of a room without changing its use, whereas reconstruction is the restoration of a building or part of a building by replacing worn-out load-bearing elements or structures. First off, a renovation is less expensive than reconstruction because reconstruction necessitates a more complex scope of work, more man hours, and more materials. Second, consider the project's duration. Renovations are frequently the faster option when compared to new construction.
