A turnkey house

A turnkey house This is a building in which, in addition to structural and installation work, the interior finishing has also been completed. This usually means finished floors, painted walls, fitted internal doors and fully fitted bathrooms. In practice, however, the scope of such work may vary depending on the contractor.

Opting for a turnkey home allows you to avoid many of the responsibilities involved in finishing the building yourself. You don’t need to arrange for a tiling team separately, look for flooring specialists or keep track of the deadlines for subsequent work. Kitchen units, household appliances, certain lighting fixtures and furniture are often the responsibility of the owner.

Most misunderstandings usually arise when comparing prices. Two houses with the same floor area may have completely different finishing costs, even if both are advertised as ready-built, turnkey homes. One quote will include floor panels and basic bathroom fittings, whilst the other will include wooden flooring, a wider selection of tiles and top-of-the-range fittings.

It is also worth bearing in mind that The time taken to assemble a prefabricated house is not the same as the completion date for the entire project. Once the structure has been erected, there is still installation work, finishing work and final inspections to be carried out.
