How to Choose the Right Interior Design Company in Kenya
The best company for your project depends on the type of space, budget, materials and services required. Before making a decision, consider the following:
1. Relevant project experience
Ask for completed projects that are similar to your own. A company experienced in residential kitchens may not necessarily have the same specialisation as one focused on commercial office fit-outs.
2. Scope of services
Establish whether the company provides design only, material supply, installation, renovation or a complete fit-out.
3. Material specifications
A quotation should identify the materials, finishes, dimensions and hardware included. Avoid comparing prices without checking whether the specifications are similar.
4. Project management
Understand who will supervise the work, coordinate trades, communicate progress and handle site issues.
5. Cost transparency
Request an itemised quotation that separates materials, labour, transport and other charges. Confirm how variations and unforeseen work will be priced.
