A Chennai apartment fit-out is a permissions problem before it is a design problem: association NOC, a booked lift slot, a drilling window that closes in the evening, and a damage deposit against the lobby. We plan the sequence around those constraints so the project does not stall in its first week.
Most delay on an apartment project is not carpentry. It is a permission nobody took, or a panel that would not fit in the lift on the morning it arrived.
Most Chennai gated projects require a written NOC, a worker list with ID, a declared completion date, and a refundable deposit against common-area damage. We assemble that paperwork before mobilising rather than after being turned away at the gate.
Full-height wardrobe shutters routinely do not fit a residential lift car. We measure the lift and the stairwell turning radius at survey and split panel sizes accordingly, so nothing is trimmed on site to make it fit.
Drilling and cutting are usually restricted to weekday daytime hours. Noisy operations are front-loaded and silent finishing trades fill the restricted windows, so the programme keeps moving instead of idling.
Lift interiors, lobby flooring and corridor walls are covered before the first delivery. Damage to shared property is the most common reason a deposit is withheld and a project turns adversarial.
BWP IS:710 in kitchen and bathroom wet zones, MR or BWR in bedroom wardrobes and TV units, SS 304 hardware throughout. Grade is assigned by zone rather than charged uniformly.
Hollow tiles, uneven plaster and plumbing shifts are photographed and reported before joinery covers them. Once a wardrobe is fixed against a seeping wall, that wall stops being anyone's problem to fix.

In almost every gated project, yes. Expect a work application, a worker list with ID proof, a declared completion date, and a refundable damage deposit. Many associations also restrict delivery hours and require the lift to be protected. We collect these requirements at survey stage, because a project stopped at the gate on day one loses a week that never comes back.
Six to ten weeks for a full turnkey scope from a cleared site. Restricted drilling hours are the biggest variable — a project limited to a few noisy hours a day sits at the longer end. Factory-built modular components cut on-site time substantially compared with fully site-built carpentry.
₹10.5–16 lakh for a 2BHK and ₹16–26 lakh for a 3BHK, at AlcorOne execution rates as of August 2026, exclusive of GST. The kitchen and the master bedroom typically account for more than half of it before any decorative scope is discussed.
Yes, and access is often easier — there is already a debris route and fewer restrictions. The trade-off is dust from ongoing base-build work, so final finishing and soft materials are held back until surrounding structural work finishes. We document the flat's condition at takeover so base-build defects do not become interior-scope liabilities.
We document them in writing with photographs and flag them to you before any joinery covers the area. Rectification is your claim against the builder under the sale agreement, not ours to absorb. What we will not do is install a wardrobe against a wall with active seepage, because that guarantees a failure the interior contractor gets blamed for.
Yes. Our head office is in T. Nagar, so supervision and escalation happen in the same city as your property. This matters most in the two situations that actually derail apartment projects: a material delivered to the wrong specification, and a site condition that contradicts the drawing.
Share the floor plan plus whatever your association requires from a contractor. We will return an itemised BOQ, a grade schedule by zone, and a sequence that fits the permitted working hours.
