Building contractors rates

Many Building contractors rates in Bangalore take constructions either on item rate constructions or on full lump sum projects based on square feet proposal. The current running Building cost of construction varies from Rs 1600 to Rs 1900 per sq ft. However, Residential building constructions should be given to a reliable Building contractor who can study house plans and other working drawings given by the Architects.

The construction rates can vary depending on the location and size of the project; below is a Sample cost of construction of a House proposal given by one of our current Building construction rates for a residence.
