The final stage of the renovation and construction work, which precedes move-in. Finishing work includes painting or wallpapering, flooring, painting the ceiling and tiling in the bathrooms. During the finishing process, all plumbing, electric or gas appliances as well as doors and switches must be installed. New flats that are delivered as ’new build’ are expected to be inhabited immediately after you receive the keys.

Most apartment buildings in cities today are only offered unfurnished and open-plan. However, some developers also offer their clients a turnkey project. Future residents at the stage of construction can choose from several types of finishing by paying a surcharge. Houses for rent and social housing that are given to people on preferential terms are also finished. In this case, the renovation will be done using affordable materials. It is likely to be cheap wallpaper, the simplest panels, linoleum on the floor and inexpensive tiles in the bathroom.
