What’s included

What you get with turnkey finishing

Room-by-room bill of quantities

Every wall, ceiling and floor measured; every rate itemised. You approve a scope, not a lump sum with room to hide things in.

One foreman, one schedule

A named foreman owns the job start to finish, with a week-by-week written programme and photo updates every Friday.

Complete wall system

Cement render, acian, skim coating and paint as one warranty — no gap between “the plasterer’s fault” and “the painter’s fault”.

Ceilings & light details

Gypsum ceilings, shadow gaps and LED coves built in sequence with the walls, not squeezed in afterwards.

Floors to finish level

Screed and self-levelling, then polished concrete, microcement or a tile-ready surface — flat, to falls where needed, and moisture-tested.

Snagging & warranty handover

Lamp-and-straightedge walkthrough, snag list cleared on our time, then a written warranty and the exact material codes we used.

One crew, one person responsible

Finishing a Bali villa normally means hiring a plasterer, a ceiling crew, a floor crew, a painter and a decorative specialist — then refereeing them. The plasterer blames the painter for cracks, the painter blames the plasterer for peeling, and the joint where wall meets ceiling belongs to nobody. Turnkey finishing exists to delete that game. Our crews do every layer from render to final coat, one foreman owns the whole surface of your building, and when something needs redoing there is no negotiation about whose problem it is. It’s ours.

There’s a price argument hiding in there as well. Five separate crews each carry their own mobilisation, their own idle days waiting for the trade before them, and their own margin on the overlaps. One integrated crew deletes the gaps: our people move from ceilings to skim to floors on the same site without a week of dead time between contracts. On a typical villa that’s two to three weeks of programme saved — and on this island, weeks are money, whether they belong to your rental calendar or your construction loan.

The sequence that protects your money

Quality in finishing is mostly sequencing discipline. We run the same order on every project: render and acian first, then the curing pause other crews skip; ceilings framed and boarded next; walls and ceilings skimmed together so the planes meet in one line; floors screeded and finished under board protection; decorative surfaces; paint last, when the dusty trades are gone. Every shortcut in that list is something we’ve been paid to demolish and redo behind another contractor — usually for more than doing it right would have cost.

A schedule you can hold us to

Before any deposit you get a week-by-week programme. For a recent 250 m² build in Jimbaran it read: weeks 1–3 render and cure, 4–5 ceilings, 6–7 skim, 8–9 floors, 10–11 paint and decorative wall, week 12 snagging — thirteen weeks including the wet-season buffer, finished in thirteen. Every Friday the foreman sends a photo report against that plan, so an owner wintering in Singapore knows exactly which rooms are sanded before the flight over. Slippage gets flagged the week it threatens, not confessed at handover.

Owners abroad and developers

Half our turnkey clients are building in Berawa or Pererenan while living somewhere else entirely; the weekly report, itemised milestones and one accountable foreman are designed for exactly that distance. For developers the same machinery scales: a 6-villa project in Nusa Dua runs on one approved sample unit and unit-rate pricing, so villa six matches villa one and your quantity surveyor in Denpasar can audit every invoice line against the BoQ. Repeatability is the actual product — anyone can finish one good room.

What “from IDR 1.8M/m²” actually buys

The package is priced per square metre of floor area, but a villa is mostly wall: one floor m² drags roughly 2.5–3 m² of finished surface with it once walls and ceilings are counted. From IDR 1,800,000/m² covers the full standard system — render, skim, ceilings, screed, paint; the premium tier adds venetian features and microcement floors. Compare that against the line-by-line rates on the pricing page and the package logic is plain: you’re buying the same unit rates plus sequencing, supervision and one warranty. WhatsApp us your floor plan and we’ll return an itemised scope within a few days — measured, not guessed.

FAQ

Turnkey finishing in Bali — FAQ

What exactly does turnkey finishing include?

From a bare or rendered shell: wall render and acian, skim coating, gypsum ceilings with details, floor screed and finish, full interior and exterior painting, silicone and snagging. Electrical, plumbing, tiling and joinery stay with your contractors — we sequence tightly around them and can recommend crews we already work with.

How long does a whole villa take?

A 250 m² three-bedroom villa from bare shell typically runs 10–14 weeks, driven mostly by curing and drying times that we refuse to fake. Wet season adds days — they’re planned into the written schedule, not discovered halfway. You see the week-by-week programme before paying anything.

How does payment work?

Staged against milestones you can walk in and verify: mobilisation, render complete, ceilings and skim complete, floors complete, then a final 10% held until your snag list is cleared. No large upfront payments — the schedule of payments is printed inside the quote itself.

Do you work with developers?

Yes — multi-unit projects are where unit rates shine: one approved spec and finish sample, a bill of quantities per unit type, one mobilisation, and consistent quality across every villa instead of five crews’ five interpretations. We’ll price your drawings as a proper BoQ; see how to vet a finishing crew for the questions worth asking us and everyone else.

Can you follow my architect’s specification?

That’s the preferred way to work. We price the spec line by line, and any substitution — say Jotun for a discontinued Dulux colour, or Kerakoll for an unavailable decorative system — is proposed in writing with a sample, never swapped silently on site. Your designer stays in the loop at every finish decision.
