Their work typically includes tasks such as installing walls, ceilings, flooring, partitions, cabinetry, and other interior finishes according to architectural designs. Interior contractors coordinate with architects, designers, and other trades to ensure that the project meets quality, safety, and aesthetic standards while staying on schedule and within budget.
