Benaa Finishing · Villas

Villa finishing,stage by stage, under one contractor.

At Benaa Contracting W.L.L., a licensed contractor in Manama, villa and flat finishing is run by one contractor across Bahrain. We carry out the gypsum, painting and tile fixing stages, priced from a Bill of Quantities after a free site visit. Finishing is typically 60 to 75% of a villa's total cost, so the quote matters more than the structure's.

The short answer

Finishing by Benaa,from gypsum to the final coat.

Benaa Contracting finishes villas and flats across Bahrain. Finishing is everything that comes after black construction, the work that turns a structure that stands into a home. We carry out the gypsum, painting and tile fixing stages ourselves and send one itemised quote for them.

Finishing, not the structure, is the largest part of a villa's cost, typically 60 to 75% of the total. Starting rates are BHD 5.5 per m² for gypsum ceilings, BHD 1.8 per m² for painting and BHD 3.5 per m² for tile fixing labour. Other items on a villa, such as joinery and kitchens, are quoted case by case from your drawings.

We visit at no charge, take the quantities, and send the Bill of Quantities in about 3 to 5 working days. The villa finishing cost guide gives the whole picture.

How to choose

Choosing a finishing contractor:six questions worth asking.

Finishing quotes differ more than structure quotes, so compare them carefully. Six questions to ask:

  1. Is the contractor registered? Ask for its commercial registration number. Ours is 166393-1.
  2. Is it an itemised quote? A lump sum hides what is and is not included. Ask for a Bill of Quantities.
  3. Who supplies what? Tiles and marble are normally bought by the owner. The quote should say so.
  4. Are the units right? Square metres for ceilings and walls, linear metres for cornices.
  5. Is preparation shown? On older surfaces, painting preparation can exceed the paint.
  6. Which trades does the contractor do itself? Ask which items are carried out by the company and which are quoted separately.

Benaa quotes every finishing stage from measured quantities and sets out what is included and what is not.

Who are the best finishing companies in Bahrain?

Everything after black construction: gypsum and ceilings, painting, tiling and flooring, joinery and doors, kitchens, final electrical and lighting, plumbing and sanitary ware. Benaa carries out gypsum, painting and tile fixing, and quotes other items case by case from your drawings.

No, the client buys the tile, porcelain or marble. We do the fixing.
