Arkose's residential construction work covers three scopes that get quoted and scheduled differently: ground-up new construction, renovation of an existing structure, and room or floor extensions. Each starts with a site and structural assessment, since soil condition and (for renovations) the existing structure's condition determine both cost and timeline before a construction contract is signed.

Our Process

  1. Site Assessment and Soil Testing (3–7 days): Determines foundation type and cost.

  2. Structural Design and Bill of Quantities Preparation (1–2 weeks): An itemized material and labor cost breakdown.

  3. Municipal Approvals for Construction: Scope varies; renovations and extensions typically need less paperwork than new construction.

  4. Foundation and Structural Work (6–10 weeks): For a standard home, longer for larger builds.

  5. Electrical, Plumbing and HVAC Rough-in (4–8 weeks): Alongside wall construction.

  6. Finishing (4–8 weeks): Flooring, painting, fixtures and fittings.

  7. Final Inspection, Snag List, and Handover: With a workmanship warranty.

Recent Work

Standard residential builds typically run 8 to 14 months from foundation to handover, depending on size; a single-floor home on a smaller plot finishes faster than a multi-floor build. Renovation and extension work is usually quicker, often 6 to 12 weeks. Material grade is set upfront in the Bill of Quantities so there's no ambiguity mid-project.

Pricing: Standard residential construction runs ₹1,600–2,200/sq ft; premium/villa-grade runs ₹2,500–4,000+/sq ft. Final pricing depends on site conditions and material grade — request a detailed quote.

What is included in Arkose's residential construction contract, materials or just labor?

This depends on the package agreed. Arkose commonly offers a turnkey contract covering both labor and materials against an agreed Bill of Quantities, or a labor-only arrangement if you prefer to source materials yourself. This is clarified before the contract is signed.

How long does a typical home construction project take from foundation to handover?

Usually 8 to 14 months for a standard single or double-floor home, depending on size and site conditions. Renovations and extensions are typically faster, often completing in 6 to 12 weeks.

Does Arkose provide a warranty on construction work?

Yes, warranties are offered on workmanship, covering structural and finishing work, with the exact terms set out in the construction contract.

How does Arkose handle unexpected costs, like a soil issue discovered after starting?

Site assessment and soil testing happen before the Bill of Quantities is finalized specifically to reduce this risk. If site conditions change mid-project, the additional scope is documented and priced separately from the base contract, with your sign-off required before proceeding.
