    What Affects Your Grey Structure Cost

    The rates above assume a standard construction plan: a plot without excessive depth, a standard foundation (no deep piling or raft foundation needed), first-floor walls aligned with the ground floor, and a basic architectural layout without large cantilevers. Actual costs shift when any of the following apply:

    Weak soil requires a stronger foundation — raft or pile — which adds cost. Rocky or hard terrain also increases excavation expenses.

    Higher seismic or load-bearing requirements call for more steel and concrete. Misaligned floors between levels require extra beams and columns.

    Brick grade, cement and steel quality, and choice of crush/sand (e.g., Margalla crush vs. local material) all move the price up or down.

    Standard ceiling height is 10 feet; going higher increases material use. Slab thickness and additional reinforcement also add cost.

    Large open spans or cantilevered terraces and balconies need extra steel and concrete for reinforcement.

    Basements and underground water tanks require waterproofing. Heat-resistant roof treatments add to the budget.

    Additional floors mean a stronger foundation and more reinforcement lower down, increasing overall material and labor needs.

    Material Specifications We Use

    Grey structure quality comes down to what goes into it. Niazi Group uses the following as standard and specifies exact brands and grades in your written quote before work begins:

    Steel (Rebar)

    Grade 60 steel, sourced from reputable brands (e.g., Amreli, Mughal, Ittehad, or equivalent). Checked on-site for proper markings, grade, and freedom from rust before use.

    Cement

    Branded OPC cement from established mills — no unbranded or blended substitutes used in structural elements.

    Bricks

    Awwal/A-grade bricks for load-bearing walls, sourced and inspected for size, shape, and firing quality.

    Sand & Crush

    Margalla or equivalent quality crush for concrete work; screened sand for masonry and plaster.

    Damp Proofing

    DPC applied at plinth level as standard on every project, not offered as an add-on.

    Rates by Location / Society

    Construction rates vary depending on the society due to differing bylaw requirements, approval processes, and site access. DHA and Bahria Town typically run 10–20% higher than LDA/open areas due to stricter inspection and finishing standards expected by the society.

    PKR 3,000 – 3,300
    Stricter approval process; structural drawings must be stamped by a registered engineer

    What to Check Before You Sign a Contract

    Verbal estimates and vague quotes are the most common source of disputes on construction sites in Lahore. Before signing with any builder, insist on:

    • A written, itemized quote with material brands, steel grade, and cement brand specified — not just a per-sqft number.
    • A stage-wise payment schedule tied to physically completed and verified work.
    • A fixed timeline with clear responsibility for delays.
    • Written confirmation of who handles society approvals, inspections, and any related fines.
    • A price-lock clause, or clarity on how material price fluctuations are handled mid-project.
    • At least three quotes from different contractors before deciding—a rate significantly below the market band usually means thinner steel, unbranded cement, or exclusions (boundary wall, water tank, plaster) that surface later as “extras”.
