What a double storey house means in Shah Faisal
A double storey in Shah Faisal 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 Shah Faisal 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 Shah Faisal 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 Shah Faisal 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
You cannot tell what is built and what was only hoped for.
- 02
The quote assumes an empty house and a free lane.
- 03
Repair and rebuild are one number, so both are wrong.
What changes after the visit
- 01
A cracked beam is shown to you before it is boxed in.
- 02
If the frame deserves to stay, we keep it. If it does not, we say why.
- 03
The lane is checked when the damp is low on the wall. Tiles are not the first answer.
After keys
A small office, but the same people who sat in the first meeting walked the slab with us.
Ahmed Raza, Bungalow Eleven, Gulshan-e-Maymar
Weekly reports, staged payments, no disappearing act. That is why we used them again.
Tariq Farhan, Palm Court, Seaview
They stayed on site until the snag list was closed. Handover matched the drawings we signed.
Imran Habib, Azure House, Clifton
The office
Staged payment is the rule. A quiet site is not financed in advance.

double storey house in Shah Faisal
A double storey house in Shah Faisal 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.
Renovation in Shah Faisal follows this ground. Shah Faisal houses sit near a loud corridor. The plan should put bedrooms off the noise and keep a veranda that is actually usable. A sealed glass front is not a comfort in June.
On this ground
If the Shah Faisal plot is filled, the footing follows the soil in the hole. A detail borrowed from another block is only a guess.
Deliveries for a Shah Faisal house follow the road you have, including the weeks it is dug up for someone else’s connection.
Shah Faisal is reachable from the Maymar office in one trip. The lane inside the colony is the part we have to see.

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.
Will you add a floor in Shah Faisal?
Only after the slab is seen.
Do you add a floor in Shah Faisal?
Only after the existing slab has been seen. An extra floor is a structural decision, not a finish.
Will you keep the old structure?
When it deserves to stay. You see the opened slab and any cracked beam before we cover them again.
Call for the rate
Do not wait for a published rate. There is not one. Labor rate or with material. The figure is on the phone.
