Why Prestige Bluestar Charges for Site Visits – And Why It’s the Best Decision for Serious Clients
In Kenya’s renovation and interior design industry, many contractors advertise “free site visits” to lure in potential clients. At Prestige Bluestar, we proudly take the opposite approach: we charge for professional site visits. Some may wonder why, but the answer is simple—because your project deserves professionalism, accountability, and luxury-level expertise right from the start.
Recognized as Kenya’s Top Interior Design Brand 2025, Prestige Bluestar has built its reputation on transparency, trust, and world-class finishes. Here’s why our paid site visits are not only justified but are also the best financial decision a serious client can make.
Free Site Visits: The Hidden Trap
“Free” often comes at a cost—usually hidden later in the project. Common pitfalls include:
- Superficial assessments – no real measurements or technical analysis.
- Inflated project costs – contractors recover “free” time by overcharging later.
- No accountability – without a formal engagement, there’s no obligation to deliver value.
- Generic advice – not tailored to your home, your lifestyle, or your vision.
👉 For luxury projects in neighborhoods like Karen, Muthaiga, Runda, or Gigiri, casual visits simply don’t cut it.

A Real Example
A diaspora client once booked a “free site visit” with a contractor for a Lavington townhouse. The project began with a lowball quote but costs shot up by 40% mid-project due to “unseen issues.”
When they later engaged Prestige Bluestar, our paid site visit identified the structural issues in advance. We redesigned the plan, provided a realistic BoQ, and executed the project within the agreed budget. The small upfront fee saved them millions in hidden costs.
