In Pakistan, mainly, people don't like to buy a
house. They prefer to buy a plot first and later build a home the way they
like. So, if you already have land and are planning to build a house of your dreams,
then this blog will surely help you in a lot of aspects.
While building a home, everyone focuses on
multiple factors, as they want the house to be comfortable and lavish. Also,
people usually have an idea that it might be the first and last time they are
building a house of their own, so they don’t even hesitate to spend.
But before building an A+ category
house, an individual must know that there are few steps that should be followed
in order to get an extraordinary result. Construction Cost means and includes
the cost of the entire construction of the Project, including all supervision, materials, supplies, labor, tools, equipment, transportation and/or other facilitiesfurnished, used or consumed.
Today, you will learn everything in detail
related to 10 Marla houses. So, without wasting any time, let’s dive into the
specifics.
Before getting into the details of the 10
Marla house grey structure cost, it is better to learn about the
specifications of the house.
If we talk about the 10 Marla house
covered area, it mainly covers 3,300 sq. ft. The ground floor of the house
approximately covers 1,650 per sq. ft and the 1st
floor of the property 1,550 sq. ft.
Now it is up to the owner of the house. Whether
they prefer to have 5 bedrooms in the house with attached bathrooms, kitchen, 2
living rooms, so on. Or they prefer 4 bedrooms with an attached bath, 2
kitchens and so on.
Now, once the plan is in motion, how many rooms,
kitchen, what type of terrace or number of living rooms are going to be in the
house. Then the next step is how much material is needed and what is the
overall cost. Don’t forget that here you don’t have to worry about the
finishing but the grey structure only.
To build the A+ category 10 Marla house, the following top class building material is needed:
Here don't forget that along with this, it is essential
to calculate the plumbing and electrical wiring cost too, as the process of
that also went side by side.
Moreover, there is no way that you buy
everything and the house will construct itself. A team of reliable and skilled
laborers is required to build an A+ category home. Make sure to find out how
much you are going to pay them.
Why not get a rough estimation of 10 Marla
double-story house construction costs? This will help you at the time when
you enter the market, you will know whether someone is guiding you right or
not.
As you know the area, the house is going to be
covered, according to that the number of bricks that are required is going to
be approx 90,000 for the foundation. Now here, it is essential to go with the
top-quality bricks, as there are many brands out there, and you might end up
buying bad quality.
Mainly in the market, you can find brick at the
rate of 14 to 15 PKR, so if you multiply it with 90,000, roughly you will have
to pay 1,260,000 to 1,300,000 PKR at least.
If we talk about the sand, to build a
house, usually two types of sand are used, Chenab and Ravi. 7,000 cubic of Ravi
sand is required that is available at 20 PKR per cubic ft. Contrary to that,
the Chenab sand is available at high rates because it is of better quality. But
the good thing is that it is required in less quantity to build a house, like
1,200 cubic ft, and the rate of it is 36 PKR cubic ft. So, the grand total of
both becomes 182,000 PKR.
The other stuff needed like gravel or crush used
in the making of the floor and roof of the house. Now to build a roof, 1,600
cubic ft of Margalla lintel is needed, and the rate of it is approx. 75 PKR per
cubic ft. Contrary to that, the Sargodha gravel is needed to build the floor,
and approx. 1000 cubic ft is required for the grey structure. The cost of this
material is approx 65 PKR per cubic ft. The grand total of both materials
combined is 185,000 PKR.
Rori will cost you nearly 35,000 PKR.

material that is used to fill the empty plots. The material is a mixture of
mitti and sand. To build an A+ 10 Marla house, approx 85 thousand rupees are
needed for Kassu.
Cement is the main element of building a grey
structure of the home. If we talk about the 5 Marla houses, at least
800 cement bags are needed, so for 10 Marla houses, you can double the bags.
Remember, each bag of cement is available in the market at 495 PKR. So, the
grand total becomes 792,000 PKR.
Rebar,
it’s another name is Sarya. At least 5 tons of Sarya is needed to build a 10
Marla house, and the rate of Sarya in the market per kg is 105 PKR minimum.
Now, if we calculate the amount of every material discussed above, the
grand total becomes 1,402,000 PKR
The integral part of any house is the plumbing
system. It is essential to ensure it is of great quality, as otherwise, it will
require a lot of maintenance and repair that doesn’t go well with anyone,
mainly financially.
Side by side with plumbing, proper electrical
wiring is also the key element of any house. For the installation of the
plumbing system including, drainage, gas pipes, and other things, at least
135,000 PKR is needed in 10 Marla houses.
Moreover, keep in mind that it isn't possible to
handle everything discussed above on your own as many think so. So, you have to
