The difference between a dream renovation and a nightmare often comes down to who you hire. Here’s how to choose the right renovation contractor in Nairobi.
Check for NCA Registration
Verify that the contractor is registered with the National Construction Authority (NCA) of Kenya. This is a legal requirement for construction work above certain thresholds.
Ask for a Portfolio
Request photos and references from previous projects. Better yet, visit a completed project in person before committing.
Get Multiple Quotes
Get at least 3 itemised quotations. Be wary of quotes significantly lower than others — they often signal corner-cutting on materials or labour quality.
Red Flags to Watch
- Demands full payment upfront
- No written contract or vague scope of work
- No physical office or verifiable address
- Pressure to decide immediately
- No portfolio or references
