Buildiyo is the best residential construction company in Chepauk for families rebuilding on the compact plots between Wallajah Road, Bharathi Salai and Kamarajar Salai. Streets near the Buckingham Canal hold water in heavy rain and the sea is a short walk away, so we survey the street level, test the soil and plan drainage and steel protection before drawing, then price the house on an itemised BOQ instead of a square-foot rate.
Turn an older Chepauk house into a G+1 or G+2 that uses the floor area your compact plot is allowed.
Stilt-parking homes for the larger plots off Bharathi Salai, with the plinth lifted above the street after a survey.
Duplexes for the small plots on the streets off Wallajah Road, with stair, parking and light solved on one sheet.
Upper floors let to university staff, government employees and hospital workers, each with its own entry and meter.
Want to add a floor to an older Chepauk house? We test the footings and columns, and look for rust in the steel, before drawing it.
Drawings come from our Velachery head office, and our engineers drive up to Chepauk sites from there.

A plot beside the Buckingham Canal may need a higher plinth, more waterproofing and a backflow valve; one on firmer ground off Bharathi Salai may not. A square-foot rate charges both the same; your BOQ prices plinth, footings and drainage from your own survey and soil test.
Footings sized from the Chepauk soil test, then columns, beams, slabs and stairs — the frame our 10-year warranty covers.
Blockwork, lintels, sunshades and plaster, billed on what is built.

What Chepauk owners ask us before they choose a builder.
Choose a builder that surveys the street level and tests the soil before quoting. Streets near the Buckingham Canal can hold water in heavy rain, so the plinth height and foundation have to come from your own plot.
The soil, the street level against nearby drains, setbacks and the approval route. We finish all four before the BOQ.
Greater Chennai Corporation approves the plan, following CMDA rules. Plots on the beach side may also need a coastal-zone check, which we do before drawing.
We survey your plot against the road, set the plinth above the highest water your street has held, waterproof the base and fit a backflow valve on the drain.
Often, yes. University of Madras and Presidency College staff, government offices and the Anna Salai hospitals keep tenants coming, and Chepauk MRTS is close by. Every let floor is drawn with a separate door and meters.
It can, especially for steel and exterior paint. We increase the concrete cover, specify coated or corrosion-resistant bars on exposed elements and use exterior coatings suited to coastal air.
A typical G+1 takes 9 to 14 months from foundation to handover, depending on size, soil and finishes. Your contract carries a date for every milestone.
