Labor Cost

The cost of labor in Pakistan is usually calculated at a per sq. ft. rate. The current rate of laborers in 2020 is around PKR 375 per sq. Ft. So, for building a 10 Marla double story house covering an area of 3,300 sq. ft. the labor cost totals to PKR 1, 237, 500.

Bricks, Sand, Crush and Rori

To get the correct estimate of the grey structure of a 10 Marla house, we must know the exact quantity of construction materials required. So, we will first find out how many bricks are needed to build a house and what it will cost.

The current market rate per brick of the Awwal category is PKR 11.5.

So, for the construction of a double-story grey structure of a 10 Marla House in Bahria Town Lahore, around, 90,000 bricks would be used. The total cost of these bricks will be PKR 1,035,000.

After calculating the cost of bricks, now we will estimate the cost of Sand that is one of the most important construction materials used to build the grey structure of a house.
