Your home interior project is probably the biggest purchase you'll ever make with no MRP, no return policy, and no way to see what's inside the walls. That's exactly why it attracts shortcuts — padded quotations, material swapping, ghost items, payment traps.
Interior Contractor Cheat Codes is a complete self-defence system for Indian homeowners. Across 13 chapters you'll learn the 7 classic cheating methods and the exact defence for each: the 21 red flags to check before signing, the six questions every quotation line must answer, the 12 quotation traps with word-for-word sentences that defuse them, DIY tests for plywood, laminates, hardware, paint, wiring and plumbing, the milestone payment schedule that keeps you in control, the 10 agreement clauses that decide disputes, a 10-minute-a-day supervision system — and a full damage-control plan if you're already stuck with a bad contractor.
A single padded quotation line — one "measurement inflation" on a wardrobe — typically costs ₹15,000–40,000. This book pays for itself the first time you question one line item.
Includes the Master Cheat Sheet, printable red-flag and snag-list worksheets, and a bonus Excel Quotation Comparison Calculator.
