The cost of constructing a 26 Marla house is divided into two main phases: the grey structure and the finishing stage. The grey structure forms the foundation of the house and includes excavation, brickwork, cement, steel, roofing, and basic plumbing and electrical installations. It sets the structural integrity and framework of the building. The finishing stage, on the other hand, focuses on aesthetics and functionality, covering flooring, paint, woodwork, fixtures, and utilities. Both phases significantly contribute to the overall cost, with material quality and labor charges playing a key role. Proper budgeting and planning are essential for achieving a durable and visually appealing home.
Let’s now work out the approximate covered areas in square feet per floor that we would see in a 26 Marla house and based on the rates given in the table we will work out all the associated costs.
