Stages of Dream House Construction
Understanding the various stages of house construction globally as well as in Pakistan can be critical for you. Also, only experts can guide you thoroughly from excavation to completion. We’ll discuss the essential steps of dream home construction globally, particularly in Pakistan. Read from the beginning until you understand how to make your dream house.
Think About Your Dream House Preferences
The first step is that you have to decide the type of structure you want to construct. It is recommended that you get assistance from the best real estate companies. These companies can give you the best architectural options and guidance.
You have to decide if you want a single detached house for your small family. However, if your family is big, you might need a big house. Additionally, your family status will help you decide if you want a bedroom house or three bedrooms in your dream house.
Site Preparation
Clearing and preparing the site are the first steps in the house construction process. You may also need to perform some ground levelling at this stage if needed. After the land is clear, levelled, and ready, you will go along with the builder to stake out the floor plan on site.
At this stage, you will see the floor plan in person for the first time, and it will be a great and cherishable experience.
Slab for the House
In house construction, the primary concrete floor is a must to install. The constructor will dig the foundation of your dream home, and any kind of ‘in slab’ plumbing will be put out. The structural engineer will give you the specifications that you will follow to dig, cage, and pour the foundation.
Next, the main concrete floor slab will be ready once the pipeline work and foundation work have been done.
Walls & Roof Structure Framing
Now you will work on the main structure of your dream home. This stage is very exciting for the house construction because you are one step closer to your dream house. There are many construction methods accessible globally, even in Pakistan. Additionally, this step depends on the type of house you are building: concrete, timber, brick, steel, and so on.
External Finishes
The constructor will finish the external walls depending on the type of dream house construction method you are using in Pakistan or anywhere else. If your dream home is built with solid walls such as brick, block, or concrete, this will usually entail painting and rendering the exterior walls.
Moving forward, if you have a light-framed structure made of steel or wood, you will need to insulate it or cover it with your preferred materials. Now, you can focus on interior fittings and choose the paints that you want on your walls and flooring.
Doors and Windows
It is safe to install the window at this stage and also the external doors after the site work has been done. Also, this helps to seal the building and protect it from any weather calamities. You will be able to start the work on the inside components of the construction, like plumbing, finishing, or electric work.
Rough Insertions
The electricians and the plumbers will install the pipes and electric cables. This stage of the house is called ‘roughing it,’ because the pipes and cables won’t be connected to live sources. The electricians will attach the power outlets, lights, and switches. Also, they will leave the pipes and wires to be finished in the upcoming stages.
Internal Finishes
Work on the non-structural interior walls, floor finishes, and internal wall finishes will start now that the pipes and wires are placed. Moreover, this process includes the painting, plastering, tiling, and installation of finished floors.
Woodwork
Your dream house can have nice woodwork as well. Carpenters will work on the installation of any furniture to build, like cupboards and bedroom closets. Also, window trimming, skirting boards, and door trimmings are done at this stage.
Future, Equipment and Fitting
The last important step of house construction is fixtures, equipment, and fittings. Your electrician will complete your lights, power outlets, and switches and also turn on the system. The plumber will install sinks, faucets, jacuzzis, toilets, and other wet systems.
Also, your builder will install the other large appliances, such as refrigerators, washing machines, or overs.
Completion
At this stage, your dream home is almost complete. You will tour the property builder and complete a final inspection of your dream house. Moreover, you can check the whole house and ensure that everything is built according to your plan and instructions.
