What the warranty actually covers
A cost figure is only half the question; the other half is what happens after handover. AlcorOne's warranty on interior work runs in three tiers, stated separately because they cover different things and expire at different times — a single headline figure would misrepresent all three.
| Tier | Term | What it covers |
|---|---|---|
| Carcass — plywood | 10 years | Delamination, borer attack and manufacturing defect in the board of modular kitchens, wardrobes and fixed joinery built by AlcorOne. Conditional on the board grade specified in the signed BOQ being the grade supplied and installed — BWP to IS 710 in wet zones, BWR to IS 303 above splash lines. This tier covers the board itself and nothing else. |
| Installation and workmanship | 1 year | Defects attributable to how the work was built and fitted — alignment, levelling, fixing, edge-banding and similar. |
| Hardware, fittings and appliances | Manufacturer's own term | Hinges, channels, drawer systems, electricals, sanitaryware and appliances carry the vendor's own warranty — Hettich, Blum, Häfele and Ebco each publish their own mechanism terms. AlcorOne registers that documentation in the client's name at handover and facilitates the claim. |
Not covered under any tier: water ingress originating from base-building or plumbing defects outside AlcorOne's scope; damage from misuse, unauthorised modification, or third-party work carried out after handover; and normal wear to finishes. The full terms are on the Terms of Service page.
Read a headline warranty number in this category the same way. A ten-year figure quoted on its own is almost always the carcass tier alone, with installation sitting at one to two years beneath it. Ask any contractor which of those years are theirs and which are the brands'.
Frequently asked questions.
Is ₹15 lakh sufficient for a premium 3BHK interior in Hyderabad?
Yes, for a standard 3BHK of 1,400 to 1,800 sq ft, a budget of ₹15 lakh is sufficient for high-quality modular wardrobes in three rooms, a complete BWP-grade modular kitchen, false ceilings in the living and dining areas, premium painting, and branded soft-close hardware. However, it will not accommodate premium veneer paneling, PU paint finishes, or extensive civil modifications.
Why is BWP plywood highly recommended for Hyderabad kitchens?
Hyderabad's water supply has high TDS levels in several micro-markets, leading to hard water usage. Hard water and high moisture levels can quickly decay cheap particle boards or commercial MR plywood. BWP (IS 710) marine plywood is completely waterproof and handles moisture, leaks, and hard water exposure without swelling or losing structural strength.
How does the National Building Code affect false ceiling drops?
The National Building Code requires habitable rooms to maintain a clear height of 2.75 meters (9 feet). If your apartment has a slab height of 2.9 meters, your false ceiling drop must be limited to 150 mm (6 inches) to comply with safety and ventilation standards.
Can we modify walls in apartments built using shear wall technology?
No, shear walls are structural load-bearing concrete walls. Drilling deep channels for electrical wiring, cutting door openings, or demolishing sections of shear walls is structurally dangerous and strictly prohibited by developers like Aparna and My Home. All modifications must be surface-mounted and covered using gypsum plasterboards or wooden paneling.
What is the standard payment milestone structure for interior projects?
A fair and safe payment schedule is milestone-based: Booking/Design Sign-off: 10% to 20%; Material Procurement/Factory Production: 40% to 50%; Material Delivery to Site: 20% to 30%; Installation Progress: 10%; Handover/Snag Resolution: 5% to 10%. Never pay more than 20% before detailed 2D designs are approved.
What warranty does AlcorOne give on its interior work?
Three tiers, stated separately because they cover different things and expire at different times. Ten years on the plywood carcass from the date of handover, against delamination, borer attack and manufacturing defect in the board — conditional on the grade specified in the signed BOQ being the grade supplied and installed. One year on installation and workmanship: alignment, levelling, fixing, edge-banding and similar. Hardware, fittings and appliances carry the manufacturer's own term, and AlcorOne registers that documentation in the client's name at handover and facilitates the claim. Not covered under any tier: water ingress originating from base-building or plumbing defects outside AlcorOne's scope; damage from misuse, unauthorised modification, or third-party work carried out after handover; and normal wear to finishes.
