Owners Rebuilding Older Homes
Old Egmore house to new G+2 / G+3
A lot of Egmore land still carries a modest older house. We knock it down, test the ground, draw a taller home and build it, all on a single BOQ.

Egmore.
Buildiyo is among the best residential home builders in Egmore, building new family homes on the quieter residential pockets behind Pantheon Road, Ethiraj Salai and Ritherdon Road. Lanes nearer the Cooum take on water in a heavy downpour, and a lorry cannot always reach a plot wedged between offices and hospitals — so levels, soil and delivery routes are fixed before the first sketch, and your price comes as an itemised BOQ, not a square-foot figure.

Line-item BOQ
How An Egmore Home
Is Priced
A taller home on a central Egmore plot needs more steel and a heavier foundation, deliveries have to be timed around busy roads, and a street near the Cooum may need a higher plinth. A square-foot rate blurs all of that; your BOQ prices each item from your own drawings, soil test and survey.
Structure (RCC & steel)24%
Everything that carries load — footings, columns, beams, slabs, stair — sized off the Egmore soil report and backed by a ten-year warranty.
Masonry & plaster12%
Walls, lintels, chajjas and two-coat plaster, billed by area.
Flooring & wall finishes14%
Floor and wall surfaces chosen room by room on a finish sheet you sign.
Doors, windows & joinery10%
Every door and window counted from the plan, with glass and hardware named.
Electrical9%
Hidden wiring, the DB, and conduits ready for air-conditioning, a lift and rooftop solar.
Plumbing & sanitary9%
Sump, tanks, supply and drains, with named sanitaryware.
Painting & waterproofing8%
Waterproofing at plinth, terrace and wet areas before each monsoon.
Kitchen, wardrobes & interiors8%
Kitchen, wardrobes and ceilings, priced only when chosen.
Site & external works6%
Compound wall, gate, paving and rain outlet, listed separately.
There is no advance and no per-square-foot price; a stage is measured, signed off by you, then invoiced.

questions
Egmore House Construction:
Questions Answered
The questions Egmore owners put to us before they sign — answered.
01How do I pick the best residential home builders in Egmore to replace an old house?+
Ask whether they will check the soil, the old structure and the road level before giving a number. Lanes near the Cooum flood in a heavy downpour, and a quote that skips those checks is guessing at your floor height and footings.
02Which checks should top residential construction contractors in Egmore finish before giving a price?+
The ground, the setbacks, the road level, how much you are allowed to build, and how materials will get to your gate. All of it is sorted out before your BOQ.
03Who clears a building plan for an Egmore plot?+
Greater Chennai Corporation approves the plan, with CMDA rules for taller and larger buildings. Some plots near heritage buildings may need extra clearance, which we check first.
04Will my Egmore plot take a car deck with three floors above?+
That comes down to the plot width, the road in front and the setbacks. We work out what height and floor area the rules allow, then design the parking level and frame around that.
05Does letting a floor make sense in Egmore?+
For many owners, yes. Egmore station, the government hospitals and offices nearby, and the Green Line metro keep tenant demand steady. Tenants get their own entrance and separate meters.
06How do you handle deliveries near Egmore station?+
Big loads arrive outside rush hour, concrete is pumped in when the lane is tight, and materials are stacked inside your boundary, not on the road.
07How long does a new Egmore home take to build?+
A G+1 is usually 9–14 months from the first footing to the keys; three- and four-level homes run longer. Each stage has a date written into the contract.
08Where can Egmore owners talk to a top residential home construction company in person?+
Come to No. 254/3, Sree Narayana Complex, C Block, Spic Nagar, Sarathy Nagar, Velachery, Chennai 600042, or book a free visit and our engineer will meet you on your Egmore plot.
Before you choose anyone, take a free soil report, first-draft plan and line-item BOQ for your Egmore plot — you owe us nothing for them.
