The interior finishes of a three-bedroom house determine how comfortable, practical and attractive the completed home will be. In Kiambu, the cost of finishing a three-bedroom house depends on its floor area, the condition of the building, material choices and the level of finish you want. The cost of interior finishing a 3-bedroom house in Kiambu should therefore be planned room by room rather than treated as one fixed price.
How Much Does Interior Finishing Cost?
As a broad planning guide, SUIMAS Interiors’ published house-finishing guidance places interior finishing for a three-bedroom house in these indicative ranges:
- Basic finish: KES 800,000–1.4 million
- Standard finish: KES 1.4 million–2.8 million
- Premium finish: KES 2.8 million–6.5 million or more
These are planning estimates, not guaranteed quotations. The final cost depends on what is already complete, the size of the house and the materials selected. Review the SUIMAS house construction guide for finishing-rate context.
What Does the Budget Cover?
1. Flooring
Flooring costs depend on the area to be covered and the selected material. Ceramic and porcelain tiles are common choices, while SPC, vinyl and laminate can suit selected rooms.
Include floor preparation, adhesive, grout, installation, skirting and wastage in the budget.
2. Gypsum Ceilings and Lighting
A simple flat ceiling may cost less than a layered tray design with concealed LED strips and multiple lighting points.
Decide early whether you need decorative ceiling details, recessed lights, pendant fittings or basic functional lighting.
3. Painting and Wall Finishes
Painting provides a clean, finished appearance, while wallpaper, fluted panels or textured finishes can add character to selected walls.
A cost-effective approach is to use durable paint across most rooms and reserve premium finishes for the living room, entrance or master bedroom.
4. Kitchen and Wardrobes
Kitchen cabinets, worktops, storage accessories and bedroom wardrobes can significantly influence the final budget.
The cost depends on cabinet dimensions, board or timber specification, hardware, worktop material and internal storage design.

5. Bathrooms
Bathroom finishing may include wall and floor tiles, waterproofing, sanitaryware, shower fittings, mirrors, accessories and vanity cabinets. Plumbing changes should be priced separately where necessary.
How to Keep the Budget Under Control
Start with a room-by-room schedule and identify which finishes are essential. Select materials before installation begins so that quantities can be measured accurately.
Avoid changing tile sizes, cabinet designs or ceiling layouts after work has started. Such changes can increase waste and labour costs.
