Interior Fit-Out & Renovation · Riyadh

Turn-key interior fit-out and renovation — designed, built, and installed by one team.

Darb runs full commercial fit-out and renovation across Riyadh — offices, retail, restaurants, showrooms, clinics, and refits on occupied spaces. Design, drawings, permit filing, joinery in our own workshop, MEP coordination, finishing, and handover — one contract, one project director, one crew. No sub-contractor gap between the moodboard and the site.

What we deliver end-to-end

  • Municipality + landlord permit filing
  • In-house factory joinery + millwork (reception, boardrooms, retail displays, restaurant bar backs)

  • Furniture supply (systems + loose) + installation

How to engage us

Three routes into a Riyadh fit-out.

Every engagement scopes to the space, the sector, and the calendar — proposals return within 48 hours of the site brief.

Most requested

Design & Build

The full turn-key engagement — we design it, we build it, we hand it over. Single accountability from concept to keys.

  • Concept + 3D + full construction drawings
  • Permit filing + landlord approvals
  • In-house factory joinery + MEP + finish
  • Site management + snag walkthrough
  • Handover + 90-day defects period

Build-Only

For clients with a designer already on board — we take the design package and deliver it on-site.

  • Design-package review + build validation
  • Permit filing coordination
  • Full fabrication + MEP + finish
  • Site management + snag walkthrough
  • Handover + 90-day defects period

Renovation Programme

For enterprises refitting multiple sites — offices across floors, retail across stores, clinics across branches. One project director, rolling handovers.

  • Portfolio-level programme plan
  • Rolling design + build across sites
  • After-hours / weekend delivery windows
  • Standardised finish package (per brand guide)
  • Post-programme performance review

Every engagement is fully customised — send the space (drawings or photos), the sector, and target handover date; a tailored proposal returns within 48 hours.

How it works

From site brief to handover in 8-14 weeks.

This is the honest range for a mid-sized Riyadh fit-out (250-800m²). Larger scopes and heavily-permitted sectors (clinic, F&B) sit at the top of the range; office refresh work sits at the bottom.

01

Site visit + brief

We visit the space, take measurements, and pull the landlord's tenant guide. Rough budget bracket returned within 48 hours of the visit.

02

Concept + drawings

Two concept directions + 3D visualisation. One direction gets picked, we detail it into full construction drawings and a materials + finishes spec.

03

Permits + build

Permit filing runs in parallel with fabrication in our workshop. On-site build starts as soon as permits and landlord approvals land — MEP first, then partitions, ceilings, floors, joinery, finish, furniture.

04

Snag + handover

Snag walkthrough with you 5 days before handover, punch-list clearance, keys handed over. 90-day defects period from handover — anything faulty gets returned to us.

FAQ

What Riyadh clients ask us first.

Do you handle design as well as build?

Yes — design and build under one contract is our preferred engagement. Single accountability from concept sketch to the day you get the keys, and no gap between what was designed and what's actually built. We also take build-only work when you have a designer already on board.

What's the honest timeline for a mid-sized fit-out?

8-14 weeks for a typical 250-800m² space, from signed brief to handover. Office refits sit at the bottom of the range; clinic and F&B fit-outs sit at the top because the permit and MEP scope is heavier. Very large scopes (1500m²+) or highly-regulated sectors can run 16-20 weeks. Compressed timelines are possible for repeat clients with a stock design package.

Which sectors do you specialise in?

Office, retail, restaurant + F&B, showroom, and clinic — plus renovation on any of them. Each has its own sub-page (linked above) that covers the sector-specific detail. Common thread across all: joinery + millwork built in our own factory, so the finish quality is consistent and the timeline is honest.

Do you handle municipality and landlord permits?

Yes, part of every design-and-build engagement. Riyadh Municipality drawing submissions, landlord tenant-improvement approvals, and any sector-specific bodies (Ministry of Health for clinics, SFDA for F&B, MoT for medical MEP). We file them; you sign what needs your signature.

How does the in-house factory change things?

Two ways. First, quality — the joinery on your reception desk, boardroom table, retail displays, or restaurant bar back is built by our own team, not outsourced to whichever workshop the general contractor found cheapest. Second, timeline — we don't wait for a joinery sub-contractor's queue; your fabrication slots into our factory calendar directly.

Do you renovate occupied spaces without shutting them down?

Regularly. Office refits floor by floor, restaurant refits in a two-week closure window, retail refits after-hours across a fortnight. Renovation-programme engagements are built around occupied-space delivery — see the /renovation-services-riyadh sub-page for the detail.

What's included in the 90-day defects period?

Anything faulty in the build — a door that sticks, a light that fails, a joinery joint that opens, a leaky tap — returned to us for repair or replacement within 90 days of handover, at no additional cost. It's not a cover-all warranty (accidental damage and misuse aren't in scope), but genuine build defects are.

Do you invoice with VAT and offer corporate payment terms?

Yes — VAT-registered invoicing with 15% VAT applied, corporate PO handling, and payment terms that fit a fit-out calendar (typically 20/30/30/20 across signature / drawings sign-off / mid-build / handover). Programme engagements run on quarterly billing.

Let's build the space.

Send drawings or photos of the space, the sector, and your target handover date. A tailored proposal — concept direction, budget bracket, timeline — returns within 48 hours.
