How many design revisions are included?

Excellent that you’re asking this 👍 — because design revisions are where most conflicts happen between clients and designers in Delhi NCR. Without a clear agreement, you may get frustrated (if revisions are limited) or the designer may feel overworked (if you keep changing things endlessly).


✅ Typical Industry Practice for Revisions

🔹 Basic / Mid-range Designers

  • Usually 2 rounds of revisions included in the design fee.
  • After that, extra charges apply (₹1,000–₹5,000 per revision or per room).

🔹 Premium / Luxury Designers

  • Often 3–4 rounds of revisions included.
  • More flexibility since clients at this level expect personalization.
  • Major layout changes after 3D approval may be billed separately.

🔹 What Counts as a Revision?

  • Minor changes: Color, finish, handle style → usually unlimited till BOQ is finalized.
  • Major changes: Layout changes (moving wardrobes, redoing kitchens, shifting walls) → counted as a revision.
  • 3D render updates: Most firms limit free revisions because rendering is costly.

💡 What You Should Ask Your Designer

  1. How many revisions are included in your design fee?
  2. Does that cover layouts, 3D renders, and material palettes?
  3. Do you charge extra for major layout changes after approval?
  4. How much is the cost per extra revision?
  5. Do you provide a final “sign-off” stage after revisions?

⚠️ Red Flags

  • Designer avoids specifying revision count 🚩 → you’ll end up paying extra.
  • Only 1 revision included → not practical for most homes.
  • No written policy → disputes at handover.

✅ Pro Tip

  • Ask for minimum 3 revisions to be safe.
  • Clarify difference between minor tweaks (free) vs major changes (count as revision).
  • Always sign a Design Sign-Off Agreement before execution → prevents disputes later.
