Pre-Construction Steps (Phase - I)
01
Choose the Right Plot
Begin by selecting a suitable plot for your building. Whether residential or commercial, make sure the location fits your needs. Always consult a legal expert before purchase, and an architect if municipal rules apply.
02
Consult an Architect
Once the plot is chosen, work with a qualified architect. They’ll design your space based on your needs and budget. The architect also coordinates with structural experts for safety and stability requirements.
03
Plan Costs and Estimate
After finalizing the design, get a cost estimate. An estimator calculates the materials and labor needed. This helps prepare a full budget. If needed, arrange for loan approval before moving forward.
04
Get Approvals
Before starting construction, submit your building plans to the local municipal authority. Approval ensures legal compliance and avoids problems. Always confirm all required documents are submitted correctly.
05
Finalize Your Contractor
Select a reliable builder or contractor for the project. Check their credentials before signing. Ensure the contract clearly outlines scope, layout, timelines, payment terms, and construction costs in detail.
Building Construction Step (Phase - II)
Site Preparation and Ground Leveling
The first step involves cleaning the site by removing trees, debris, and leveling the land. For small plots, manual labor is enough, but for larger areas, machines like JCBs are used. A level site ensures stable construction.

2
Excavation and PCC Laying
The foundation area is excavated as per the design using machines. A PCC (Plain Cement Concrete) layer is then laid at the bottom of the trench. Though often ignored, this layer forms the base for the entire foundation and must be done carefully.
Foundation Construction
The foundation supports the entire building by transferring loads to the soil. After PCC, reinforcement is placed and concrete is poured. The base must be double-checked before concreting. Remaining space is backfilled with soil.

Plinth Beam Construction
A plinth beam connects the foundation to the superstructure. It acts as a transition base above which columns rise. It also prevents moisture from rising up the walls and provides structural strength.
Superstructure Column Work
Above the plinth beam, vertical columns are constructed to carry the load of upper floors. This forms the basic frame of the building and continues up to the slab level for further work.

6
Brick or Block Masonry
After the frame is ready, walls are built using bricks, concrete blocks, or fly ash bricks. Cement mortar is used to bond them. Openings for windows and doors are left as per the drawing during this phase.
Lintel Construction Over Openings
Lintels are horizontal structures built above doors and windows to support the wall above. Once lintels are placed, masonry work continues above these gaps for the next level.
7
8
Slab or Roof Work
Formwork is prepared on top of the columns and beams to create the slab. Steel reinforcement is placed according to the design. Then, the slab is poured and cured to set properly.
Door and Window Frame Installation
Frames for doors and windows are installed in the designated openings. These must align perfectly with the plan and allow space for shutters and fittings later on.
9
10
Electrical and Plumbing Installation
Concealed electrical wiring and plumbing pipes are installed inside walls and floors before plastering. Only endpoints are left exposed for future switches, lights, and water fittings.
External Plastering and Finishing
The outer walls are plastered to protect from weather. Waterproofing is applied to prevent dampness. Exterior cladding or decorative finishes can be added to improve visual appeal.
11
12
Roof and Terrace Finishing
To avoid water leakage, the roof is waterproofed and usually tiled. This layer protects the slab from sun, rain, and temperature changes, and extends its lifespan.
Internal Wall and Floor Finishing
Internal plastering is done for a smooth finish. Flooring tiles are laid as per design. Then, walls are painted or textured to give them a finished, clean appearance.
13
14
Woodwork and Fixture Installation
With civil work done, woodwork such as wardrobes and kitchen cabinets is added. Simultaneously, switchboards, electrical fittings, and plumbing fixtures in bathrooms and kitchen are installed.
Final Waterproofing Treatments
Waterproofing is applied in critical areas like bathrooms, terraces, and balconies. This protects against leaks and humidity, safeguarding furniture and interiors from long-term damage.

16
Painting and Final Decoration
Painting protects walls from dust and stains while improving aesthetics. Exterior and interior paints are chosen for durability and design. This final step includes touch-ups, furnishing, and interior decor.
