NoVi is a finishing company in Egypt trusted with compound-scale work: we deliver concrete and architectural finishing on Mivida Gardens — 200 villas in New Cairo. The same discipline goes into a single apartment in the Fifth Settlement or a villa in Sheikh Zayed.

Every finishing project is run under our ISO 9001:2015 quality system and inspected stage by stage, from masonry to the last coat of paint. In the New Administrative Capital we are also delivering finishing, landscape and infrastructure for Capital Hills — 240 units.

01Finishing in Egypt

Super lux, ultra super lux and high-end finishing

The labels are used loosely in Egypt; in our BOQ every item is specified by material and grade, so the label never replaces the detail.

How finishing levels are commonly understood in Egypt
LevelWhat it usually includesOften chosen for
LuxStandard ceramic or porcelain, basic paint, standard sanitary ware, simple ceilingsUnits for rent or resale
Super luxBetter porcelain or marble in reception, gypsum board ceilings with hidden lighting, upgraded sanitary ware, AC points preparedFamily apartments and townhouses
Ultra super luxNatural marble, detailed gypsum work, premium paint and fittings, custom doors, full AC and lighting designLuxury apartments, duplexes and villas
High-endFully bespoke: stone and wood cladding, feature ceilings, custom joinery throughout, lighting control and smart homeVillas and penthouses

General market definitions for guidance. The specification in your NoVi BOQ is what defines your finishing level.

Full finishing for compound villas and apartments

Whether your unit is red brick, semi-finished or a finished home being upgraded, the scope is drawn and priced before work starts.

  1. Masonry and plastering

    Layout changes built and walls plastered true, the base every later finish depends on.

  2. Electromechanical works

    Electrical, plumbing, AC and light-current routes installed and tested before they are closed in. See MEP works.

  3. Flooring and stone

    Marble, porcelain and parquet laid to the approved pattern, with levels checked room by room.

  4. Ceilings and gypsum

    Gypsum board, cornices and hidden lighting coordinated with AC grilles and light points.

  5. Doors, windows and joinery

    Aluminium, doors, dressing rooms and kitchens, built with our manufacturing partners and installed by our team.

  6. Paint, sanitary and handover

    Paint systems, sanitary ware and fittings, then snagging and a clean handover.

Compound finishing rules and the finishing deposit

Every developer runs its own finishing permit, and the rules decide when you can start and whether you get your deposit back.

  • Finishing permit. Most developers ask for architectural, electrical and AC drawings before issuing a permit. We prepare the set and coordinate the submission with you.
  • Finishing deposit (تأمين التشطيب). A refundable deposit protects the compound against damage and rule breaches. Clean sites, controlled deliveries and debris removal are how it comes back to you.
  • Façade and external guidelines. AC unit positions, balcony enclosures, pergolas and exterior colours usually follow the master plan and need approval.
  • Working hours and access. Site hours, worker passes and delivery windows are set by the compound; we build them into the programme from day one.

Villa finishing stages, in order

  1. Survey, design and BOQ

    We record the unit's condition, agree the design and finishing level, and price every item in EGP.

  2. Permit and mobilisation

    Developer drawings submitted, deposit paid and long-lead items such as marble and joinery ordered early.

  3. Rough works

    Masonry, electromechanical routes, plastering and waterproofing, inspected before being covered.

  4. Finishes

    Flooring, ceilings, paint, doors, joinery and sanitary ware, installed to the shop drawings.

    Typically 4–8 months for execution, depending on scope

  5. Snagging and handover

    Systems tested, snags closed and the unit handed over clean, ready for the deposit to be released.

What drives the cost of finishing in Egypt

Two units of the same size can end up far apart in cost. These are the items that make the difference.

  • Unit condition: red brick needs the full scope; semi-finished units can save items or need rework.
  • Stone and flooring: imported marble and large-format porcelain can multiply the flooring budget.
  • AC and electrical: concealed or central AC, lighting design and smart home add engineering and material cost.
  • Joinery: kitchens, dressing rooms, doors and wood cladding are often the largest single item.
  • Access and compound rules: working hours, delivery windows and upper-floor access shape the programme and the site cost.

Questions

Frequently asked questions

Straight answers to what clients ask us before a site survey. Not covered here? Ask the team directly.

Ask the team

How is the cost of finishing calculated in Egypt?

From your unit, not from an average. We survey the unit, agree the design and finishing level, then price a BOQ item by item in EGP and issue a fixed quotation before work starts. The unit's condition, stone, AC and electrical scope and joinery move the number most.

What is the difference between super lux and ultra super lux?

Ultra super lux usually means natural marble, detailed gypsum work, premium paint and fittings and a full AC and lighting design, where super lux uses upgraded porcelain and simpler ceilings. In our BOQ the materials, not the label, define the level.

Can you get my compound finishing permit and protect my deposit?

We prepare the drawings the developer requires, coordinate the submission with you and run the site to the compound's rules on hours, deliveries and debris, which is what keeps the finishing deposit refundable.

My unit is semi-finished. Do I have to start from scratch?

Not necessarily. At survey we check what the developer installed, from plaster to electrical routes, and keep whatever meets the design. The BOQ then shows exactly what is reused and what is replaced.

Can you finish my apartment while I work in the Gulf?

Yes. Selections are approved online against 3D views and samples, the permit is coordinated from Cairo, and you receive regular progress updates from site.

Do you finish villas in Sheikh Zayed and the North Coast?

Yes. West Cairo villas are served by the same site teams as New Cairo, and North Coast homes are planned backwards from the start of the summer season, with deliveries organised before works begin.
