House construction in Gulzar-e-Hijri: 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 5 marla — about 1,125–1,361 sq ft, depending on whether a marla is taken as 225 or 272.25 sq ft. Karachi papers usually state square yards. We convert from the figure on your documents, not from a rule of thumb. Call 0321-2000130 or 0321-2000690.
Building in Gulzar-e-Hijri
Gulzar-e-Hijri lies within the Scheme 33 belt off the Super Highway, with mixed plot sizes and houses of different ages on the same street.
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.
What we check first here
- Drainage relative to older neighbouring houses
- Corner plots where two frontages tempt too much glass
- Roofs that may later take a mumty or an extra floor
Close to the Maymar office; frequent site visits are realistic.
What a 5 marla house means in Gulzar-e-Hijri
Five marla in Gulzar-e-Hijri is a compact family house. We measure the plot before we accept the word. A marla count in a message is not a dimension.
What usually goes wrong
People expect a villa and then discover the veranda, the car, and the kitchen light cannot all be large. One of them has to be chosen.
Labor rate
The labor rate waits until the plot is measured. We will not build to a marla that was guessed. A labor rate means Maymarian builds and you arrange the material: cement, steel, brick, sand, and crush. You still need a drawing, because labor on the wrong plan is wasted money.
With material
Material is ordered to the measured footprint. A guess here becomes the wrong steel. With material means labor and material are one contract. We buy what the scope names, and you are not running to the market between the footing and the slab.
What moves the figure
In Gulzar-e-Hijri the figure moves with covered area, one floor or two, whether the contract stops at grey structure, how much fill is in the hole, and whether you chose labor only or material with it.
Have this ready when you call
- 01
The plot papers, and the yardage written on them.
- 02
The lane, so we know how concrete and steel arrive in Gulzar-e-Hijri.
- 03
How many people sleep there, and whether the house is one floor or two.
- 04
Whether you want a labor rate or a contract with material.
Labor rate or with material
Call for the Gulzar-e-Hijri 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 Gulzar-e-Hijri 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 estimate treats fill as a line item you can delete if you feel brave.
- 02
The approval is assumed. The excavation date is already in the message.
- 03
The family is ready to move and the papers still do not match the ground.
What changes after the visit
- 01
The covered area is agreed before the elevation, so the house you priced is the house we draw.
- 02
You get a written scope after the visit. That is the page the contract comes from.
- 03
You can stop at a written grey-structure line and finish later.
The office
The weekly note shows the problem before it shows the progress. That is the practice, not a slogan under the logo.

5 marla house in Gulzar-e-Hijri
A 5 marla house is the family bungalow people describe when they are not thinking in square yards. In Gulzar-e-Hijri we still measure the plot. A marla count on a message is not a dimension we will build to.
Five marla is tight enough that the veranda, the car, and the kitchen light have to be chosen on purpose. House construction for this house is a modest plan, not a villa with the second floor deleted.
Gulzar-e-Hijri mixes plot sizes and house ages on the same street. A new house has to live next to an older one without stealing its light or dumping water into its yard. We draw the drainage before the front wall.
On this ground
If the Gulzar-e-Hijri plot is filled, the footing follows the soil in the hole. A detail borrowed from another block is only a guess.
If Gulzar-e-Hijri is a society, we are still the builder. Allotment is their door.
It is close enough to Gulshan-e-Maymar for weekly site walks without a separate camp. Streets are mixed: some tight, some open. The method follows the street.
Houses of different ages share a block. Groundwater and roof leaks show up more often than exotic soil problems. We look at the neighbour's courtyard before we set our plinth, because water does not respect a boundary wall.
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
Yes. Call 0321-2000130 or 0321-2000690 after the plot is measured. We give the labor rate or the rate with material for that house.
Yes, if that is the scope. The stair and the drops are decided before we stop.
Yes, when the plot is actually 240 on the ground. We check the papers against the lane before we draw the covered area.
No. We build houses. Allotment of scheme plots is a different door, including in Gulzar-e-Hijri.
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.
Call for the rate
If the plot is already yours, message us. If you need a society plot allotted, this is the wrong door. Labor rate or with material. The figure is on the phone.
