Turnkey Black Frame Apartment Renovation in Batumi

A black frame apartment means concrete walls and floor slabs with no finish at all. To make it liveable, it needs the full cycle of works — from partitions and screed to painting the walls and fitting the bathroom. We take on the whole cycle, and you see the cost in advance — in the online configurator, before you even talk to a manager.

What black frame means

This is what Georgians call the condition in which a developer hands over an apartment: load-bearing walls and floor slabs, sometimes partitions and a floor screed. There is no plaster, no wiring, no plumbing and no finish.

A black frame apartment is cheaper to buy but needs the most work. In return, you can make it entirely your own — from scratch.

What the renovation includes

  • partitions to your layout — if the developer has not built them;
  • floor screed;
  • wall plastering;
  • electrical wiring;
  • plumbing and heating lines — radiators or underfloor heating, your choice;
  • the bathroom finish: tiles and sanitary ware;
  • the final finish of the rooms: flooring and walls;
  • balcony tiles — if there are none yet.

The exact scope is in the estimate: every item is a separate line.

How the cost is calculated

The price has three parts. The base depends on the living area and the frame type: the larger the apartment, the lower the price per square metre. Partitions and screed are counted separately if they are missing, and so are underfloor heating, the balcony and the materials you choose.

In the questionnaire you tick what has already been done — and pay only for what is really needed. Change a material in the configurator and the total updates at once.

How the work goes

  1. You enter the area and the rooms and tick what the developer has done.
  2. You choose a style and materials in the interior configurator and see the cost.
  3. You send a request — a manager gets in touch and a surveyor visits the property.
  4. We fix the price and the timeline and draw up the work plan.
  5. Our own team carries out the renovation; progress is visible online.
  6. We hand over the apartment, with a 5-year guarantee on the renovation.

Questions and answers

How long does a black frame renovation take?

Usually 2–4 months, depending on the area and the scope of work. The exact timeline is fixed at the planning stage.

Do I have to buy the materials myself?

No. You choose the materials in the configurator, and we handle purchasing and delivery together with the Gorgia hypermarket.

The developer has built the partitions — will that be taken into account?

Yes. Tick partitions and screed in the questionnaire if they are already there, and these works will stay out of the estimate.

Can I have underfloor heating?

Yes. With a black frame you can choose water underfloor heating if the building has gas, or electric if it does not. You pick the option in the questionnaire, and its cost shows up in the estimate at once.
