It depends. If the renovations were repairs to bring the value of the property back up to where it was then you can just deduct the lump amount and call it repairs. If the renovations were improvements to increase the value of the property then the amount should be depreciated along with the original value of the property.
If this amount includes both of those things then you should divide it.
