Can I write off renovations to a home office?

Home office renovations are deductible if the office is used exclusively and regularly as your principal place of business or as a place to meet clients or customers. The deduction is limited to the portion of the renovation that applies to the office space. For example, if your home office is 10% of your home's total square footage, you can deduct 10% of the renovation costs. However, general home improvements that benefit the entire home, like a new roof, are not deductible as a home office expense but may be depreciated over time.
