Grey structure in Ahsanabad: Maymarian Builders & Developers works from First R1 Lane, A42, Gulshan-e-Maymar, and quotes either a labor rate or a contract with material after seeing the plot. This page is about 10 marla — about 2,250–2,723 sq ft, depending on the marla used. Roughly the 240–300 yard range in Karachi terms. Confirm the exact yardage from the allotment. Call 0321-2000130 or 0321-2000690.
Building in Ahsanabad
Ahsanabad sits beside Gulshan-e-Maymar off the Super Highway. Plots are often tighter than the 240-yard houses people compare them with.
Building-plan approval for a society or KDA plot goes through the Sindh Building Control Authority after the land-owning agency confirms title, land use and dimensions. Ahsanabad Cooperative Housing Society appears on SBCA's published list of approved societies — check your own plot's papers against it.
What we check first here
- Excavation and shuttering close to the neighbour's wall
- Rooms that turn into corridors on a small footprint
- Damp from the lane closed up by a previous mason
Practically next door to the office.
What a 10 marla house means in Ahsanabad
Ten marla in Ahsanabad 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. A labor rate on grey structure is the mason, the carpenter, the steel fixer, and the helpers. You supply cement, steel, brick, sand, and crush. The stair opening and the toilet drops still have to be in the drawing, or the labor builds a frame the finish cannot use.
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, those same items are in our contract. Steel weight and slab thickness are why two grey-structure quotes on the same Ahsanabad plot do not match. We name them before anyone orders.
What moves the figure
The grey-structure figure in Ahsanabad moves with the hole we dig, the span of the lanter, whether another floor sits on it, and how much brickwork is inside the stop line.
Have this ready when you call
- 01
Plot papers and the yardage on the ground, not only in the chat.
- 02
Whether a floor will be added later. That decision is made in this slab.
- 03
Where the bathrooms are. The drops cannot be invented after the concrete.
- 04
Labor rate, or with material.
Labor rate or with material
Call for the Ahsanabad rate.
We build Karachi residential houses on common plot sizes — 80, 120, 200, 240, 400 and 600 square yards, plus 5 and 10 marla where that language is used. You can take a labor rate, or a contract with material. The figure is spoken for this plot. It is not printed here because steel and cement move, and so does covered area.
Labor rate
We build. You arrange the material. The rate follows the covered area on the Ahsanabad plot.
With material
Labor and material in one contract. Cement, steel, brick and the rest sit in the scope we read with you before work starts.
What you are walking into
- 01
The roof cannot take the room everyone already talks about putting there.
- 02
Cover is a number in a book and a guess on site.
- 03
The stair opening is a hole. The stair itself was left for someone else to invent.
What changes after the visit
- 01
Each stage is photographed, including the cover.
- 02
Drops, levels, and the stair are drawn before steel is ordered.
- 03
Curing is a stage, not a slogan.
The office
The Maymarian name was registered as a trade mark for building construction and repair (class 37, No. 467531) in 2017, and the private limited company was incorporated with SECP in January 2021.

10 marla lanter in Ahsanabad
A 10 marla house in Ahsanabad 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. Grey structure on a 10 marla plot includes that slab decision in the written scope, after we have walked the ground.
On a small Ahsanabad plot the grey structure is close to the neighbour's wall. Excavation, shuttering, and curing need a sequence that does not occupy their lane for a month. That sequence is part of the price.
On this ground
Tariq Mansoor Bangash’s company takes Ahsanabad work when the supervision is real.
The Ahsanabad house should still be legible in ten years: regular bays, a stair that was drawn, a roof someone can walk.
Near enough to the Maymar office that supervision stays with the same people. Lanes can be narrow. The programme has to respect that, including where a mixer can actually stand.
The constraint is width, not drama. Excavation, shuttering, and curing are sequenced so the next house can still open its gate. That sequence is written down. It is not left to the day.
Building plans and SBCA
In Karachi, residential building plans are regulated by the Sindh Building Control Authority (SBCA) under the Karachi Building & Town Planning Regulations. For a Category-I house, the usual path starts with title and land-use confirmation from the land-owning agency, then drawings prepared and stamped by an SBCA-licensed professional, then a hard-copy submission at the SBCA smart counter (or the automated path where it applies).
Bring allotment, possession, lease or sub-lease, CNIC, site photographs, and six sets of elevation, section and site plans when the office asks for them. SBCA publishes Category-I timelines in days when there is no objection; objections and incomplete papers are what stretch a programme, not a slogan about "fast approval."
Maymarian is a builders and developers company with its office in Gulshan-e-Maymar. We are not the society developer (Maymar Housing Services). We help owners get a buildable house on a plot they already hold — we do not allot society plots, and we do not invent an approval that the authority has not given.
Why rates are not printed on this page
Online posts quote grey-structure and finishing bands for 120-yard houses that swing by tens of lakhs. Those numbers are someone else's quote on someone else's covered area. Steel and cement move. Fill on a Scheme 33 plot is not the same as a settled Maymar lane. A double-storey section is not a ground floor with a wish.
We give a labor rate, or a contract with material, after we know the plot, the covered area, and what is already in the ground. Call 0321-2000130 or 0321-2000690. Ask for the figure for this plot — not for a screenshot from another builder's page.
How a house usually moves
- 01
Papers and a walk
We look at the plot, the lane, and the papers you already have. If the title or the building line is unclear, that is the first conversation — not the elevation.
- 02
Scope in writing
Labor rate or with material. Covered area. What grey structure includes, and where finishing starts. Staged payments against completed work.
- 03
Plan and authority
Drawings for the plot you own. Licensed professionals for submission. SBCA and the land-owning agency on their own clocks — we do not sell a fake shortcut.
- 04
Build and handover
Site supervision, photographed stages, a snag list, and keys that match the set you signed. That is the whole point of "the name of trust."
Questions people ask
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.
Yes, up to the line in the scope. Finish — plaster, tile, joinery — is a separate decision, written as such.
Only if the hole agrees. Filled ground gets the footing it needs.
Up to the written line. Finish is another decision.
The Sindh Building Control Authority (SBCA) approves building plans under the Karachi Building & Town Planning Regulations. You also need the land-owning agency to confirm title, land use and plot dimensions before a complete Category-I submission.
No. A printed rate without covered area, fill condition and material scope is how arguments start. Call 0321-2000130 or 0321-2000690 for a labor rate or a with-material figure for your plot.
No. Maymarian is a separate builders company based in the scheme. Maymar Housing Services is associated with the township. Different names, different work.
A modest ground-plus-one house often sits in a months-long programme once drawings and authority steps are clear. Weather, material lead times and finishing choices stretch it. We give a stage plan for the house in front of us — not a universal calendar.
