Questions Tejal Gets Asked
How long does a typical project take?
A full 3BHK takes 60–90 days from design sign-off to handover. A modular kitchen is typically 4–6 weeks. Every project kicks off with a detailed timeline so you know exactly what’s happening week by week.
What happens in the consultation?
It’s a 30-minute conversation — in-person at your space or on a video call. I ask about your lifestyle, what’s bothering you about the current space, your budget range, and your timeline. I’ll tell you honestly at the end whether I think I’m the right fit. Zero sales pressure.
Do you handle everything or do I manage vendors?
I handle everything. Vendor sourcing, material procurement, site coordination, quality checks — I manage it all so you don’t have to make a single contractor call. You get weekly photo updates and can reach me directly any time.
My budget is tight. Can you still help?
Yes. 12 years of experience means I know how to get beautiful results at a range of budgets. I’ll tell you upfront what’s achievable, suggest where to invest and where to save, and never push you into materials you don’t need. I can also structure the project in phases if needed.
Will I see what it looks like before anything is built?
Always. Every project gets both 2D floor plans and photorealistic 3D renders before any work or ordering begins. You’ll see exact colours, materials, furniture placement, and lighting. We only move forward when you’re fully happy.
Which areas across Pune do you work in?
I work across all of Pune — Baner, Balewadi, Hinjewadi, Wakad, Kothrud, Viman Nagar, Koregaon Park, Aundh, Kalyani Nagar, and beyond. Every project includes a site visit which I fit around your schedule.
