Find answers to common questions about interior design, gypsum ceilings, partitioning, and renovation budgets in Kenya.
Gypsum ceiling installation typically ranges from KES 2,200 to KES 3,500 per square meter. This price covers galvanized metal studs, standard gypsum boards, joint fillers, fiber tape, plaster skimming, cornices, and primer paint coatings. Decorative bulkheads and custom design features will increase the cost slightly.
SPC (Stone Plastic Composite) is completely waterproof, highly dent-resistant, and can be safely installed in kitchens, bathrooms, and dining areas. Laminate flooring uses a wood-fiber core that will swell and buckle if exposed to standing water, making it best suited for bedrooms, study areas, and dry corridors.
Yes. A standard 10mm tempered glass partition dampens sound up to 32-35 dB, which is sufficient for normal office conversational privacy. For boardrooms and executive spaces requiring high confidentiality, we install double-glazed glass systems with internal acoustic seals or specialized mineral wool insulated drywalls.
Yes. For completed homes, we install wireless smart home switches and micro-modules (operating on Z-Wave or Zigbee mesh networks) directly inside your existing wall boxes, requiring no wall breaking or cabling. This allows smart lighting and voice assistant control without any structural damage.
We recommend Moisture-Resistant MDF (Medium Density Fiberboard) or high-grade marine plywood. Standard particle boards swell easily in damp kitchen environments. MR MDF provides excellent structural strength, stays flat, and resists humidity.
Fluted WPC panels are extremely low maintenance. Because they are moisture-proof and termite-proof, you only need to wipe them with a damp microfiber cloth to remove dust. Avoid harsh chemical solvents or steel scrubbers to prevent scratching the pre-finished foil layers.
Timelines depend on project size. A standard gypsum ceiling design for a living room takes 4 to 6 days. Office partitions for a medium workspace take 5 to 7 days. Complete kitchen fitouts require about 10 to 14 days of workshop fabrication and 4 to 6 days of onsite mounting and stone installation.
