Post-renovation finishing for design studios in Warsaw and across Poland
The builders have left and what remains are the details that make a handover look unfinished: gaps, squeaks, crooked hardware, lights that are out of line. The tradesperson comes in after the crew and closes the list.
What is different here
The snag list is always longer than it looks at the walk-through. The client sees a light that is out of line, and next to it there is an unpainted joint, a door leaf out of level and a skirting board with a gap. The tradesperson takes the whole list and closes it before handover, not one item a week.
The tradesperson comes in after another crew and does not patch over their work blindly: first they look at what was done and say plainly where a correction settles it and where the detail has to be redone. That conversation is better had before the work. From the photos they judge the scope before the visit.
The third thing is responsibility. The tradesperson comes in after the crew and closes the list, but does not sign off somebody else’s installation. If a detail is built wrong, you hear it before the start and the decision stays with you.
What breaks most often
Six things that come back on these premises month after month.
- Filling chips and holes Holes from old fixings, chipped corners, marks left after strip-out.
- Skirting boards and joints Gaps between skirting and wall, corners, joints at thresholds.
- Hinges and drawer runners Doors out of level, a drawer that sticks or drops.
- Silicone and seals Joints at the bath, the sink and the worktop where the bead went on crooked.
- Adjusting doors A door rubbing the frame, not holding its angle, closing only on the second try.
- Lighting and LED strip as designed Fittings in one line, strip in a recess, lighting that did not land the way it did in the render.
How it gets done in a hurry
Four mistakes that come back most often on premises like these.
-
Handover done from memory
A list without photos gets lost between the crew and the client. A shot of each item removes the argument about what the note meant.
-
Silicone laid on a dirty joint
Within a month it peels off in a strip. The old bead comes out, the surface dries, and only then goes the new one.
-
Hinges left unadjusted after settling
Kitchen fronts drift apart in the first season. Adjusting them takes minutes and is done once.
-
Fittings hung without setting out
A line of three points shows in a photo at once if one is a centimetre off. Setting out happens before drilling.
What it looks like
The snag list on site 
Finishing the details in the bathroom 
Keys after handover
BEFORE HANDOVER
At handover the client looks at the last centimetre of silicone, so the list gets closed beforehand.
After the crew, before handover
The list is easier to close in one visit: the tradesperson judges the scope from photos and says how long it takes. If the handover is tomorrow, say so straight away: an urgent call-out costs more.
What to have ready
Four things that keep the visit to one trip instead of two.
- A photo of each point on the list
- The handover or shoot date
- The drawing or layout, if you have one
- Who opens the place and where the keys are
How it runs
The request, the offers, your choice of tradesperson and their invoice.
-
The request
Send the snag list with photos. From the shots the tradesperson judges the scope before the visit and says what closes in one go.
-
The offers
Tradespeople send offers at their own price, and the price-list range helps you judge them. Materials, carrying them in and taking the rubbish out are priced separately.
-
You choose a tradesperson
Compare the offers and reviews, then pick one tradesperson. You agree the time in the app chat.
-
Payment and invoice
You pay the tradesperson directly, and they issue the invoice because they sell the service. If you need company paperwork, say so in the request.
The same price list as for flats
Services from the general catalogue, with no separate business tariff. The range is a guide, and the tradesperson gives the price in the offer.
| Service | Range |
|---|---|
| Filling holes and damage | 20–35 zł/m² |
| Skirting board repair | 30–60 zł/mb |
| Hinge adjustment | 150–350 zł |
| Drawer runner replacement | 80–180 zł/szt |
| Re-sealing shower and bathtub | 250–600 zł |
| Door adjustment | 80–150 zł |
| LED strip installation | 60–90 zł/mb |
The work
The tradesperson gives the price for the work in their offer. The price-list range helps you judge it.
The call-out
Within Warsaw it is included. Outside Warsaw it is a separate item in the offer.
Materials
Small fixings come with the tradesperson. Everything else is separate, along with carrying in and rubbish removal.
The hour
Night and weekend hours, and an urgent call-out, usually cost more, and the tradesperson builds that into the offer.
Twelve snags in a flat are items from the table above by quantity and one call-out for the whole list.
Full price listWhat nobody here will promise
Some jobs need a licence, and nobody can honestly promise “right now” if no one nearby is free.
-
LICENCE NEEDED
Gas line
Only a tradesperson with a current gas licence. Their profile shows whether it has been checked.
Load-bearing walls and risers
Only with a design and the building manager’s consent. Cutting into structure by eye is out.
-
NOT PROMISED
Design supervision
The tradesperson does not run the site or argue with the crew on your behalf: they come, close the list and leave.
Redoing another crew detail on the spot
If the assembly is wrong, a touch-up will not cure it. The tradesperson says so plainly and the decision is yours.
A tradesperson’s profile shows what has been verified, including licences checked against state registers. Whoever did the installation answers for it. If something went wrong, say so in your review of the tradesperson: reviews are how we decide who stays in the app.
Before you order
The work was done by another crew.
Nobody here answers for an installation made by someone else, but the tradesperson will say plainly what is wrong, what can be corrected and what has to be redone.
We have a photo shoot booked.
Put its date in the request. The tradesperson picks a slot before the shoot and starts with the details that end up in frame: aligned fittings, joints, hardware.
We need the work done to our drawings.
Send the drawing or the layout with the request: the tradesperson looks at it before the visit. If the design has details that do not meet on site, you hear about it before the work starts, not after.
Handover is in two days and the list has twenty points.
Send it in full with photos. The tradesperson will say how long it takes and what really fits before the date, better to hear it now than on handover day.
The client wants to know who works in their home.
The work is done by one named tradesperson rather than an anonymous crew: they introduce themselves on site and answer for what they did. If the client needs details before the visit, say so in the request.
How fast will someone arrive?
The slot depends on who is free. The tradesperson gives it in the offer, before you choose them. An urgent call-out costs more.
We need a VAT invoice for the company.
The invoice comes from the tradesperson who did the job, because they sell the service. Say in the request that you need a company invoice: tradespeople see it before they send an offer.
Who is answerable for the work?
The person who did it: the tradesperson is the contractor. Their profile shows what has been verified, and we read every complaint, which is how we know who stays in the app.

Completed job
Three flats for a design studio: kitchen appliances and taps
Warsaw
- taps and waste traps fitted at the sinks
- cooker hood installed
- induction hobs and ovens connected
- dishwashers and washing machines connected
One sentence
is enough.
Describe the fault in your own words and add a photo. Tradespeople send offers at their own price, and you pick one.
No phone calls. You talk to the tradesperson in the app chat, so the order keeps a history.
