7FAQ
Questions
How much do full interiors of a 2BHK cost?
With this calculator's town rates at standard quality, a 2BHK of about 840 sq.ft. carpet area with wardrobes, modular kitchen, loose furniture, false ceiling, paint, lights and curtains comes to about ₹10.5 lakh, or ₹11.5 lakh with 10% kept aside. Basic interiors are about 30% less and premium about 70% more.
What takes the most money in interiors?
Woodwork: wardrobes, the modular kitchen, beds, TV and crockery units. In the default 2BHK it is about 60% of the rooms total. The board, the surface finish and the hardware inside decide most of that price.
How are wardrobes and kitchens priced?
Wardrobes are priced per sq.ft. of front area, about ₹1,600 at standard with BWR plywood and laminate, so an 8 × 7 ft wardrobe is about ₹90,000. Modular kitchens are priced per running foot of base and wall units, about ₹14,000 at standard.
Should I hire a designer or a turnkey firm?
Working directly with a carpenter and contractors is cheapest but you manage design and quality. A designer charges a fee, often around 10%, for drawings and supervision. A turnkey firm quotes one price for everything and usually includes a margin of about 15%. Switch Who does it to compare.
How much should I keep aside?
About 10% for changes, hidden repairs and items you add later. Keep more if the design is not final or the home is old.
What is not included?
Flooring, bathroom tiles and fittings, civil changes, appliances such as TVs, ACs and fridges, and decor like art and rugs. Use the flooring and other calculators for those.
Does premium quality last longer?
Better boards (BWP plywood), thicker laminates or veneer and branded hardware do last longer and resist moisture. The biggest gains are in kitchens and bathrooms, where water ruins cheap board.
