ruinivation

To ruin while supposedly renovating an old item such as an antique or an old house.

The ruinivation of the 1940s pristine bathroom was complete when Sam bought a new sink and plywood vanity at the local builder's supply store. He replaced the original, heavy, but authentic, porcelain pedestal sink, thereby ruinivating the bathroom.
