How to compare interior quotations fairly

Compare the same room schedule, material grade, hardware, finishes, quantities and installation scope. A lower headline amount may exclude elements another quote includes. Ask for differences to be written down before choosing.

A well-managed interior project separates inspiration, estimation, approval and execution. Keep a single current scope and make decisions visible to everyone involved. The quotation should identify materials, quantities, exclusions and the person responsible for each decision. Photos and illustrations help discussions; they are not substitutes for measurements or professional checks.

The proposed payment schedule is 10% booking and survey, 20% design approval, 40% production readiness, 20% installation and inspection, and 10% snag clearance and handover. It becomes a commercial commitment only after the final scope and terms are approved. Later milestone invoices require the agreed evidence and settlement of the preceding stage.

Use the online estimator to discuss options, not to bypass review. Prices start at INR 9,00,000 per 400 sq ft plus estimated GST, with optional scope packages priced separately. Ask for clarification of any overlap or missing item. Contact the consultant through the project enquiry form to keep requests traceable and let staff confirm the appropriate delivery and tax treatment.
