What a 240 square yard plot means in Gulshan-e-Iqbal
A 240 square yard plot in Gulshan-e-Iqbal can hold a family house, a car, and some open ground. It cannot hold all three if a double-height foyer is allowed to eat a bedroom.
What usually goes wrong
Treating 240 as a double of 120 produces the wrong stair and the wrong car turning. We measure the plot before we draw either.
Labor rate
The labor rate is for this footprint. It is not a 120 yard rate multiplied. On a labor rate we build the bungalow and you arrange the material. The veranda and the stair are still drawn first. A labor gang cannot invent them on site without costing you the room they occupy.
With material
With material, the roof and the stair are the lines that move. They are different problems from a 120. With material, we supply what the bungalow scope lists and we build it. Shade, the roof, and the wet areas are in that list. A glass front is not a substitute for a veranda that works in June.
What moves the figure
A bungalow rate in Gulshan-e-Iqbal moves with the covered area, whether the car actually fits the lane, and whether the contract is labor only or with material.

After keys
A small office, but the same people who sat in the first meeting walked the slab with us.

Weekly reports, staged payments, no disappearing act. That is why we used them again.

240 square yard house in Gulshan-e-Iqbal
A 240 square yard house in Gulshan-e-Iqbal has room to make a mistake look generous. A double-height foyer can eat a bedroom and still leave yardage on the drawing. We check the plot is actually 240 on the ground before we draw that covered area.
People compare a 240 yard house with a 120 as if one were a double of the other. The roof, the stair, and the car turning are different, and so is the rate. Call 0321-2000130 or 0321-2000690 for the labor rate or the rate with material in Gulshan-e-Iqbal.
Bungalow in Gulshan-e-Iqbal follows this ground. Gulshan-e-Iqbal is already built up. A new house is an insertion between neighbours. Working hours, the gate opposite, and an old footing in the ground matter more than a new elevation.

Can you build a 240 square yard house in Gulshan-e-Iqbal?
Yes, when the papers and the lane agree that the plot is 240. Call 0321-2000130 or 0321-2000690. We price it as 240, labor rate or with material, not as a larger 120.
Do you give a bungalow rate for Gulshan-e-Iqbal?
After the visit. Not on the phone.
Is a bungalow just a smaller house?
It is a single-family house with its own ground. It is not a villa with rooms deleted to fit the plot.
Can you keep the plan modest?
Yes. A smaller bungalow with usable rooms is a success. A double-height foyer that deletes a bedroom is not.
