General / Homepage FAQs
How do I find a good interior designer in Gurgaon?
Look for verified portfolios, client reviews, clear contracts and transparent pricing. Ask for past project references and 3D previews before signing.
What is the difference between an interior designer and an interior decorator?
An interior designer creates the full plan (space planning, materials, MEP coordination). An interior decorator focuses on finishes, furniture and styling.
How do I know if an interior designer is genuine and not going to take my money and disappear?
Check business registration, written contracts, client references, staged payment schedules, and prefer firms that provide a formal written proposal.
Can I see your past projects before deciding to hire you?
Yes — we share a portfolio of completed projects and 3D case studies; ask us for references and site visits when available.
Do you work across all of Gurgaon or only specific sectors?
We work across Gurgaon including DLF, Sohna Road, Golf Course Road and the major sectors — contact us with your address for confirmation.
How long does a typical interior design project take from start to finish?
Timelines vary by scope — a typical 2—3BHK turnkey project takes 6—12 weeks after approvals; renovation or civil-heavy jobs take longer.
Will you handle everything or do I need to coordinate with contractors separately?
We offer turnkey project management including contractors and procurement. You can also choose design-only engagement if preferred.
What happens if I don't like the design you propose?
We include review rounds in our process — we revise until the design meets your brief within the agreed rounds documented in the contract.
Do I need to be available every day during the project or can you manage it independently?
Clients usually do not need to be present daily — we coordinate weekly updates and approvals. On-site presence is arranged for key milestones.
Is TvasteHive a registered company? Who is behind this?
Yes — we operate as a registered interior design studio. Contact us for company details and team introductions.
Do you provide a written contract before starting work?
Yes — every engagement begins with a written proposal and contract outlining scope, schedule and payment terms.
Can I make changes to the design after work has started?
Minor changes are handled as part of the process; significant changes may require change-orders and cost/time adjustments as documented in the contract.
What areas of Gurgaon do you cover — DLF, Sohna Road, Golf Course Road, Sector 56?
We cover all major Gurgaon areas including DLF, Sohna Road, Golf Course Road, Sector 56 and surrounding sectors.
Do you also work in Delhi NCR or only Gurgaon?
We serve Gurgaon primarily but also take projects across Delhi NCR depending on scope and scheduling.
What is the first step if I want to get started with you?
Contact us for a consultation — we’ll discuss your brief, budget and timeline and then propose a tailored plan and estimate.
Budget & Pricing FAQs
What is the average cost of interior design in Gurgaon?
Costs vary widely by scope and finishes; a realistic range is given after a site visit. Use our pricing section for ballpark figures.
How do interior designers charge — is it per sq ft, per room, or a flat fee?
Designers charge in different models: per sq ft, fixed fee, or percentage of project cost. We explain the recommended model in the proposal.
What is included in the per sq ft rate and what costs extra?
Per sq ft usually covers design, basic materials and project management; premium materials, appliances and specialised works are typically extra.
Can I get a basic interior done for under ₹5 lakhs in Gurgaon?
Yes, small apartments with economical finishes and limited scope can be executed within that budget — we can provide a workable package on request.
What is a realistic budget for a full 2BHK interior in Gurgaon?
Budget depends on finish grade; example packages are provided in our pricing section. Contact us for a quick estimate based on your brief.
What is a realistic budget for a full 3BHK interior in Gurgaon?
Similar to 2BHK — final estimate depends on materials, appliances and civil work; we provide sample packages to guide decisions.
Why do different designers give such different quotes for the same work?
Differences come from scope, materials, sub-contractor quality and warranty. Always compare like-for-like quotes and scope breakdowns.
Are there any hidden charges I should watch out for?
Watch for unclear exclusions like transportation, site mobilization, GST, or specialised finishes — good proposals list inclusions and exclusions clearly.
Do you charge for the initial consultation or is it free?
Initial consultation policies vary; we typically offer a free short consultation and a paid detailed site survey if required.
What is the payment schedule — how much do I pay upfront?
Typical schedules include an advance on agreement, milestone payments during execution, and final settlement on handover; exact terms are in the contract.
Do you offer EMI or payment in instalments?
We can structure payment plans; for larger projects we discuss instalments in the proposal stage.
What if the project goes over budget — who pays the difference?
Cost overruns due to client changes or unforeseen site issues are usually handled via change-orders; we communicate and agree on costs before proceeding.
Can I supply some materials myself to reduce costs?
Yes — supplying select materials is possible but coordinate with the project manager to ensure compatibility and warranty considerations.
Is GST included in the quote or added on top?
Quotes specify whether GST is included; if not, GST will be added as per law — we clarify this in the proposal.
How do I compare two designer quotes fairly without getting confused?
Compare scope line-by-line: materials, finishes, warranties, timelines and exclusions. Request itemised quotes to compare correctly.

3D renders are highly representative, but finishes, lighting and material variations may cause minor differences. We manage expectations and samples before execution.
What warranty do you give on the work done?
