Time = money

Open on time —
keep your revenue and customers

Every extra week of delay is rent without income, payroll without sales and customers walking over to your competitors. We engineer the process so you launch on the exact day stated in the contract.

01

Deadlines locked into the contract

Every milestone date and the final handover are documented. Responsibility for delays is on us, not on "circumstances".

02

Daily on-site control

Foreman in daily contact with photo reports per stage. If we spot a risk of slippage, we move to two shifts or work weekends — at our cost.

03

Launch with zero "loose ends"

Handover day = the day you open your doors to clients. No "we'll finish this in your first week" — the office is 100% ready.

Missed deadlines come from contractors who don't count other people's money. We do — and that's why we've delivered on time for 19+ years in a row.

01 — About

Why clients choose
SMG Corp

Two things matter in commercial renovation: a predictable budget and a delivery date. We lock both into the contract — and own the result personally, without passing the buck to subcontractors.

01

Experience and craft

19+ years renovating commercial real estate in Almaty. Tradesmen with at least 5 years of specialised experience. We know the subtleties of finishing works and follow building codes.

02

Formal contract

We work transparently: contract with fixed deadlines and quote. No hidden works or payments — the quote is final. We sign an acceptance act on completion of every stage.

03

Quality guarantee

We back every type of work with a 2-year warranty. If anything needs attention within the warranty period — we fix it at our expense. We use vetted materials and follow the proper technology.

04

Tight deadlines

We know how important it is to move into your renovated office on time. If needed, we run two shifts or work weekends. We'll fit inside your rent-free period.

Transparent comparison

Offices and workspaces

Beyond large projects —
the office segment

Schools and public projects show the scale we operate at; for offices the same rule applies: quote and deadlines in the contract, progress photos on request (often under NDA).

We'll share office and small-commercial interior examples on WhatsApp after a short briefing — we'll pick the most relevant references for your sector.

06 — FAQ

Frequently
asked questions

Common concerns answered before the call: deposit, warranty, accounting documents. Can't find your answer? Drop us a line on WhatsApp — we'll respond to the point.

How much does a site visit and survey cost?

The specialist visit and on-site survey are completely free. The surveyor arrives at a time that suits you, takes all required measurements and records the property's condition. You then receive a detailed quote — with no obligation.

Can I order a turnkey office renovation?

Yes — we cover the full scope, from stripping out the old finishes to a final clean. No need to chase materials or supervise subcontractors yourself: coordination, procurement and quality control at every stage are on us.

Do you provide a warranty on the work?

Yes, all work types come with a 24-month warranty. If anything fails on our side during the warranty period — we fix it at our cost and as quickly as possible. The warranty terms are written into the contract.

Is a deposit required?

Yes — to reserve the crew and procure materials we take an advance, usually 30% of the total. The balance is paid in stages as each milestone is accepted. Payment terms are spelled out in the contract.

How long does an office renovation take?

It depends on scope and complexity. A cosmetic refresh of an office up to 100 m² takes from 2 weeks. A full renovation with re-planning takes 4 to 8 weeks. Exact deadlines go into the contract — we can run two shifts if needed.

What kinds of commercial spaces do you handle?

All formats of commercial real estate: offices and business centres, retail and shops, restaurants and cafés, medical clinics, beauty salons, banks, warehouses and production facilities.

Do you support bank transfer for legal entities?

Yes — we work with both individuals and companies. For organisations we accept bank transfers and issue all the standard accounting documents: contract, invoice, acceptance act, materials waybill.

Can you handle materials procurement?

Yes, we can take procurement on entirely. We work with vetted suppliers and source materials at wholesale prices, which saves your budget. Prefer to pick materials yourself? We'll help you choose and advise.

Ready for clear numbers and a transparent plan?

An engineer will answer your project questions and recommend the next step — no upsell, just facts and a clear path after the survey.

Formal: contract with fixed price and deadlines, stage acceptance acts, bank transfer for legal entities and closing documents.
