What a 10 marla house means in Surjani Town
Ten marla in Surjani Town is large enough to sprawl. The part people cannot see in a finish photograph is the lanter, the concrete roof slab.
What usually goes wrong
Asking for a per-foot lanter rate with no span, no steel, and no answer about the floor above it. Those three are the slab.
Labor rate
Labor for the lanter is the carpenters and the steel fixers on that span. It is not the same job as an 80 yard roof. 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 lanter is cement, steel, and thickness. Another floor on top of it changes the steel. We say so before the pour. 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 Surjani Town moves with the covered area, whether the car actually fits the lane, and whether the contract is labor only or with material.

Labor rate or with material
Call for the Surjani Town rate.
Maymarian builds Karachi residential houses on 80, 120, 240, 400, 600, 800, and 1,000 square yard plots. You can take a labor rate, or a contract with material. The figure is given on the phone, for this plot.
Labor rate
We build. You arrange the material. The labor rate follows the covered area on the Surjani Town plot.
With material
Labor and material in one contract. Cement, steel, and the rest sit in the scope we read with you.
What you are walking into
- 01
A corner is treated as a licence to glaze both streets.
- 02
The bungalow is really a ground floor waiting for a floor the slab cannot take.
- 03
June needs a generator because the house faces the heat.
What changes after the visit
- 01
A modest bungalow is allowed to stay modest.
- 02
One court, not two performances.
- 03
Wet areas share a wall.
After keys
Weekly reports, staged payments, no disappearing act. That is why we used them again.

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

They stayed on site until the snag list was closed. Handover matched the drawings we signed.

The office
Staged payment is the rule. A quiet site is not financed in advance.

10 marla lanter in Surjani Town
A 10 marla house in Surjani Town is large enough to sprawl. The searches that arrive with it are often about the lanter, the concrete roof slab, because that is the part of the cost people cannot see in a finish photograph.
The lanter moves with steel, cover, bay size, and whether a floor above it is real. We do not publish a per-foot lanter rate. Bungalow on a 10 marla plot includes that slab decision in the written scope, after we have walked the ground.
Plots in Surjani can be larger, which tempts a spread-out house that is expensive to roof. We group the wet areas and keep the roof honest. A bigger plot is not a reason for a bigger problem.
On this ground
People asking if Surjani Town is a good place to live are asking about schools, water, and the drive. We answer the building part, and we do not pretend to be the society.
We do not publish which sector of Surjani Town is best. Two plots on one road can differ by a metre of fill.
The road into a given sector matters as much as the map. If the lane is dug up, concrete day moves. We would rather write that into the programme than explain it later.
Plots can be more open than an old Karachi lane. Open is not a reason to stretch the roof across the whole land. A simple frame and a grouped set of wet rooms keep the house buildable.
What does a 10 marla lanter cost in Surjani Town?
Call 0321-2000130 or 0321-2000690. The lanter moves with steel, thickness, and whether another floor sits on it. We give the labor rate or the rate with material for this plot. It is not printed here.
How long does a Surjani Town bungalow take?
Most take twelve to twenty-four months after the scope is signed, depending on covered area and finish.
Can the veranda face the side?
Yes, when that is where the breeze is. A front veranda that faces a hot wall is not a principle we will defend.
How do we start?
WhatsApp 0321-2000130 with the plot and the rooms. Or call 0321-2000690.
Call for the rate
WhatsApp a photograph of the lane. We will tell you if a Saturday visit is worth it. Labor rate or with material. The figure is on the phone.
