--- title: "Covering instead of refurbishing ยท Decoblu" description: "A refurbishment removes what is there and puts in something new; film covers it instead. Decoblu sells the material and does not do building work." url: https://decoblugroup.com/en/comparisons/cover-or-refurbish lang: en alternate: https://decoblugroup.com/comparativas/revestir-o-reformar updated: 2026-10-15 --- Comparison # Covering instead of refurbishing Covering with iNfeel keeps the piece and gives it a new finish; a traditional refurbishment takes it out and fits a new one. The film goes over doors, headboards, wardrobes, furniture, bathrooms, walls and kitchens. Decoblu does not do the building work: it sells the material and trains installers through approved training programmes.
