Renovation 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 double storey — plot size varies. Ground-plus-one changes the footing, column sizes and stair. It is not a ground floor with a wish. 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 double storey house means in Ahsanabad
A double storey in Ahsanabad is decided in the first slab: the stair, the toilet drops, and the weight of the upper floor. If the house is already standing, the first job is to look at that slab.
What usually goes wrong
Promising the first floor later, on concrete nobody designed for it.
Labor rate
Labor for two floors includes the stair. A hole with no stair is not a complete structure. A labor rate covers the people who open, rebuild, and plaster. You arrange cement, steel, and brick if the structure needs them. We do not price a paint job as a new house, and we do not price a new slab as paint.
With material
With material, the upper floor is in the steel of the first slab, or it is refused. It is not implied. With material, replacement of a bath, a lintel, or a slab is in one scope. You can see which lines are labor and which lines are material before work starts.
What moves the figure
Renovation in Ahsanabad moves with what we find in the wall, whether an extra floor is even possible, and whether you are asking for labor only or material with it.
Have this ready when you call
- 01
Photographs of the house as it stands, and the year it was built if you know it.
- 02
What must keep working during the job, especially a bathroom.
- 03
Whether you want another floor. That is a look at the existing slab.
- 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
Every coat made the bath harder to understand.
- 02
You need a repair this month and a full redraw next year, and the quote mixes them.
- 03
Adding a floor skipped the slab.
What changes after the visit
- 01
A cracked beam is shown to you before it is boxed in.
- 02
A cracked beam is shown, not boxed.
- 03
The roof is a separate stage.
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.

double storey house in Ahsanabad
A double storey house in Ahsanabad is decided in the first slab. The stair, the toilet drops, and the weight of the upper floor have to be in the concrete. Promising the first floor later, on a slab nobody designed for it, is how the argument starts.
If the house is already standing and you want a floor added, that is a look at the existing structure, not a paint job. Renovation either includes the upper floor now or it says the slab cannot take it.
We are often called after a previous mason has already closed a damp wall. The first week is opening, not finishing. If the damp is from the lane, tiles will not fix it.
On this ground
Ahsanabad is supervised from Gulshan-e-Maymar, not from a site hut with no name.
Ahsanabad sits in the part of Karachi this office already works. We do not fly a crew in for a single slab.
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
Yes, when the structure is drawn for two floors. Call 0321-2000130 or 0321-2000690 for the labor rate or the rate with material. An extra floor on an old slab waits until we have seen that slab.
No. The scope says repair, renovation, or new construction. Mixing them is how the price becomes a surprise.
After the opening and the written scope. A start that has not looked is not fast.
Often. One bath stays usable. If the job cannot be lived through, we say so first.
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
Bring the papers to First R1 Lane, A42. Labor rate or with material. The figure is on the phone.
