FAQ
How to find legal interior design/decoration businesses?
You can use the Ministry of the Interior's "National Building Management Information System" to check whether a business has completed interior decoration registration and its scope. Businesses undertaking decoration projects should have interior decoration registration. This site also organizes information based on official registration data.
What objective criteria can be considered when choosing?
Common aspects include: whether they have completed interior decoration registration, registration scope (design/construction), past portfolio and communication smoothness, whether quotes are itemized and transparent, and contract and warranty terms. These are personal choices; this site does not rank them.
Are interior designer and interior decoration business registration the same?
Not exactly the same. Interior decoration business registration is for the "business (company/firm)"; professional technical personnel for design or construction have separate qualifications. Businesses undertaking decoration projects should have interior decoration registration. See this site's "Check Registration" for details.
How to compare quotes reasonably?
It is recommended to obtain itemized written quotes (design fees, construction fees for each trade, management fees, etc.), compare content rather than just the total price, and confirm that the contract specifies project scope, materials, schedule, payment method, and warranty. This page provides neutral information and does not constitute advice.
What items should an interior decoration business's quote include?
The quote should list work items, quantities, unit prices, and total prices, and specify material specifications, brands, and models to avoid vague items for later inspection and cost verification. This page provides neutral information.
What warranty clauses should be noted when signing a contract?
The contract should specify the warranty scope (e.g., structure, electrical, plumbing, waterproofing), warranty period, and repair responsibilities, and require a written warranty statement. The warranty period is subject to the contract. This page provides neutral information.
What are common types of disputes in decoration projects?
Common disputes include project delays, additional costs, substandard construction quality, and materials not matching the agreement. It is recommended to clearly define penalty clauses and resolution mechanisms in the contract and keep written records. This page provides neutral information.
What factors should be considered when choosing decoration materials?
Consider the material's fire resistance rating (whether it meets regulations), environmental labels, durability, and ease of maintenance, and request material specification certificates from the business for later verification during inspection. This page provides neutral information.
What stage documents should a business provide during the decoration process?
The business should provide design drawings, construction schedule, material delivery list, and inspection records at each stage to help the homeowner track progress and quality. After completion, as-built drawings can be requested. This page provides neutral information.
