Why is there such a wide price range?

Three main variables: finish level (materials, detailing), site condition (new shell versus renovation) and building constraints (working hours, landlord rules). The same 100m² office can differ twofold on these — so the ranges are indicative, and the real number comes from an itemised BOQ based on your drawings.

What is the 4-hour BOQ, and does it cost anything?

A BOQ (Bill of Quantities) itemises every work package: quantity, unit price, total — directly comparable against any other contractor. Send your drawings or floor photos and AIC returns a detailed BOQ within 4 working hours, free, no strings attached.

Will the price inflate mid-project?

The price locks to the signed BOQ. Extras only occur when you actively change the scope — and are always notified in advance through a transparent addendum for approval before any work proceeds.

Do these rates include design?

The table shows construction rates. Design is quoted separately under a design contract; the 3D concept is free when you sign design with AIC. Going full design & build keeps both under one accountable contractor — typically 3–5 weeks faster than hiring separately.
