The construction of one’s house entirely depends upon the budget that one has and their aspirations regarding to that house which is smaller yet beautiful.
Having a 5 marla plots is a top choice that is being opted by many people belonging to the middle class. In a number of housing societies in Pakistan which are well established a suitable area shouldn’t be covered so it takes a form of a lawn or front yard. Roughly, 1,000 sq feet of space can be utilized in a 5 marla plots.
Labourers who are engaged in the construction of a plot including the contractors remain in the assigned project from the start till the project ends. Mostly these people don’t charge extra because for them the security of their job comes by taking into consideration the assigned projects. This type of dealing is well suited for both the parties. Therefore this type of partnership really works for that type of construction quality that one wants to see in a required plot.
The cost of labour highly depends upon the period of construction. In order to make additional money sometimes, the labour elongates the work, but the one who has assigned them this work does has a deadline i.e. the builder. The deadline is given so that the assigned task is completed on time and they should be according to those standards that have been promised.
In case if anyone wants a good quality A category house of 5 marlas then its duration period is of 3 months. During this period of time, everything should be cleared out i.e. the wages which were promised to the labour and even the construction of the plot. This should be done as everything will expire after the time period of 3 months.
The money which has to be paid to the labour also depends upon the skills that a labour has. If someone wants a B category 5 marla plots then the daily salary which will be given to a labour will be in between 250-400 per sq foot. The time period in which 5 marla plots can be completed is approximately of 2-4 months. This all depends on how much finances one has.
The number of bricks that are required in the construction of a 5 marla plots is roughly 35,000. This is the quantity of bricks that are required to construct the whole structure which includes foundation, rooftop, and boundary walls, etc. A rate of every brick is dependent on its quality and the price ranges from 6 to 9,000 i.e. 1,000 for each brick.
For those 5 marla plots which fall in A and B category that bricks have been preferred by the owners which are good quality wise. More bricks are required in order to give strength to the walls.
The bricks which cost up to PKR 8,000 are recommended by the builders which especially falls in B category. These bricks are used because the bricks with lower price won’t give that structural strength to a house which is required.
This is a rough estimate of building a nice home on 5 marla plots. So, if someone is planning to a build a house instead of buying one then they can save a certain amount of money.
