Rental Property Interior Upgrade in Lagos, Nigeria
Landlords use our Rental Property Interior Upgrade in Lagos to refresh flats, short let units and shared houses with durable finishes, better kitchens and bathrooms and layouts that attract good tenants.
Rental Property Interior Upgrade by My Space Design
A rental flat with chipped tiles, faded paint and a tired kitchen sits empty longer and draws lower offers. Our Rental Property Interior Upgrade in Lagos gives landlords a planned way to lift the appeal of a unit between tenancies. We focus spending on the rooms tenants judge first, the kitchen, bathroom and living room, and we choose finishes that survive heavy use and frequent turnover.
Durability guides every decision in a rental upgrade. We specify dense porcelain floor tiles, washable satin paint on walls, solid cabinet carcasses with sturdy hinges and sanitary ware with spare parts that are easy to find in Lagos markets. This approach lowers repair calls and keeps the unit presentable for the next tenant, which protects the rental value of the property over time.
From Ipaja we upgrade rental flats, mini flats, self contained rooms and short let apartments across Alimosho and the rest of Lagos. Landlords with several units can schedule upgrades one after another so each flat returns to the market quickly. For furnished lets, our Short-Let Apartment Interior Design service adds furniture, soft furnishings and styling suited to guests booking online through popular platforms.
Scope of work
What a rental property upgrade includes
Hard wearing floors
We replace cracked or stained floors with porcelain tiles or rigid vinyl planks rated for heavy foot traffic, laid on a level screed with tile skirting that resists mop splashes and furniture knocks.
Kitchen refresh
Rental kitchens receive new cabinet doors or complete units, a stainless steel sink, granite or compact laminate worktops, tiled splashbacks and dedicated sockets for a fridge, microwave and gas cooker.
Bathroom upgrade
We fit robust WCs, basins and shower mixers, retile wet areas, regrout and reseal joints and add extractor fans that keep mould away from ceilings and paintwork in busy tenant bathrooms and shower rooms.
Paint and wall repairs
Walls are patched, skimmed and finished in neutral washable paint colours that appeal to most tenants. We record each colour code so the landlord can touch up marks quickly at the end of each tenancy.
Lighting and electrics
We replace old fittings with LED panels and downlights, add sockets beside beds, desks and kitchen worktops, label every circuit in the consumer unit and install separate prepaid meters for each flat where the building layout allows.
Storage and doors
Fitted wardrobes, kitchen pantry units, shoe racks by the entrance and new flush doors with quality mortice locks give rental units practical storage and security that prospective tenants notice during viewings.
Our process
How a rental unit upgrade runs from vacancy to relet
- Step 1
Unit inspection
We inspect the vacant unit, list defects left by the last tenancy and note upgrades that would lift its rent. The inspection forms the basis of the upgrade plan.
- Step 2
Upgrade plan and estimate
We recommend finishes matched to the target tenant and the rent level of the area, then prepare a cost estimate so the landlord can approve the rental upgrade with clear figures.
- Step 3
Works on site
Our artisans complete repairs, plumbing, electrical work, tiling, carpentry and painting in a tight sequence, supervised daily so the unit returns to the rental market promptly.
- Step 4
Clean and handover
We clean the unit, test every tap, socket and light and hand over a list of fittings used, which helps the landlord replace parts during future tenancies.
Materials and components
Durable materials for rental property upgrades in Lagos
Rental units need finishes that look good at viewing and stay good through years of tenant use. We favour materials that clean easily, resist chips and stains and use standard sizes, so a broken tile, tap or hinge can be matched from Lagos suppliers in a single trip.

Questions
Rental Property Interior Upgrade FAQs
What does a Rental Property Interior Upgrade in Lagos cost?
The cost depends on scope, size and finishes. A paint and lighting refresh is a modest job, and a full kitchen and bathroom upgrade is a larger one. My Space Design inspects the unit and prepares a cost estimate before work starts, so landlords can weigh the spend against the expected rent.
Which upgrades make the biggest difference to tenants?
Tenants respond most to clean kitchens, sound bathrooms, good lighting and fresh flooring. We usually focus the rental property upgrade on these rooms first, then add storage, security doors and paint where the budget allows.
Can you upgrade several units in one building?
Yes. We often upgrade a series of flats in the same block, using a consistent specification so repairs and replacement parts are simple to manage. Units can be completed one at a time as tenants move out.
Do you work for landlords who live outside Lagos?
We carry out Rental Property Interior Upgrade in Lagos for landlords based in the city and further away. We share photographs and progress updates during the works and arrange access with caretakers or agents on site.
