How much does it cost to renovate a balcony floor?
Flooring costs should be included when budgeting for a home fitness room, also known as a home gym.
Depending on the type and amount of fitness equipment and the size of the room, a home gym can cost around €500 to €15,000 or CHF 500 to CHF 15,000. Fitness equipment is usually the main cost driver, while the size of the room and the amount of equipment also affect the budget.
A basic set-up with dumbbells, a weight bench and a pull-up bar costs considerably less than a training area with a rack, cable machine or cardio equipment. Delivery and installation costs often need to be added.
Second-hand fitness equipment can reduce initial purchase costs, provided that its condition and working order are checked and transport arrangements are considered before purchase.
The flooring must also be included in the calculation. Slip-resistant fitness flooring made from PU-bound rubber granules dampens noise and vibrations and protects the substrate.
Flooring costs depend on the dimensions of the training area, the thickness of the tiles and the preparation of the substrate. With suitable tile systems, the area can be extended later.
