What a 10 marla house means in Surjani Town
Ten marla in Surjani Town is large enough to sprawl. The part people cannot see in a finish photograph is the lanter, the concrete roof slab.
What usually goes wrong
Asking for a per-foot lanter rate with no span, no steel, and no answer about the floor above it. Those three are the slab.
Labor rate
Labor for the lanter is the carpenters and the steel fixers on that span. It is not the same job as an 80 yard roof. A labor rate covers the people who open, rebuild, and plaster. You arrange cement, steel, and brick if the structure needs them. We do not price a paint job as a new house, and we do not price a new slab as paint.
With material
With material, the lanter is cement, steel, and thickness. Another floor on top of it changes the steel. We say so before the pour. With material, replacement of a bath, a lintel, or a slab is in one scope. You can see which lines are labor and which lines are material before work starts.
What moves the figure
Renovation in Surjani Town moves with what we find in the wall, whether an extra floor is even possible, and whether you are asking for labor only or material with it.

Maymarian builds Karachi residential houses on 80, 120, 240, 400, 600, 800, and 1,000 square yard plots. You can take a labor rate, or a contract with material. The figure is given on the phone, for this plot.
Labor rate
We build. You arrange the material. The labor rate follows the covered area on the Surjani Town plot.
With material
Labor and material in one contract. Cement, steel, and the rest sit in the scope we read with you.
What you are walking into
- 01
Every coat made the bath harder to understand.
- 02
Dust and a family in the same stair.
- 03
A wet slab is about to receive a floor finish.
What changes after the visit
- 01
The scope says repair, or it says new. Not both in one fog.

You get a written scope that distinguishes repair from a new house.
- 03
An extra floor waits on the slab we can see.
After keys
A small office, but the same people who sat in the first meeting walked the slab with us.
Ahmed Raza, Bungalow Eleven, Gulshan-e-Maymar
Weekly reports, staged payments, no disappearing act. That is why we used them again.
Tariq Farhan, Palm Court, Seaview
They stayed on site until the snag list was closed. Handover matched the drawings we signed.
Imran Habib, Azure House, Clifton
The office
We are a construction company. Gulshan-e-Maymar the housing scheme is a different organisation. We do not allot society plots.

10 marla lanter in Surjani Town
A 10 marla house in Surjani Town is large enough to sprawl. The searches that arrive with it are often about the lanter, the concrete roof slab, because that is the part of the cost people cannot see in a finish photograph.
The lanter moves with steel, cover, bay size, and whether a floor above it is real. We do not publish a per-foot lanter rate. Renovation on a 10 marla plot includes that slab decision in the written scope, after we have walked the ground.
Renovation this far north is often an incomplete house rather than an old one. We write a list of what is already built and what is only hoped for, and we price the gap.
On this ground
If the Surjani Town plot is filled, the footing follows the soil in the hole. A detail borrowed from another block is only a guess.
We do not publish which sector of Surjani Town is best. Two plots on one road can differ by a metre of fill.
The road into a given sector matters as much as the map. If the lane is dug up, concrete day moves. We would rather write that into the programme than explain it later.
Plots can be more open than an old Karachi lane. Open is not a reason to stretch the roof across the whole land. A simple frame and a grouped set of wet rooms keep the house buildable.
What does a 10 marla lanter cost in Surjani Town?
Call 0321-2000130 or 0321-2000690. The lanter moves with steel, thickness, and whether another floor sits on it. We give the labor rate or the rate with material for this plot. It is not printed here.
Is a kitchen remodel a renovation?
Only if the brief is the kitchen. A wet roof hiding under that remodel is a different stage.
Do you add a floor in Surjani Town?
Only after the existing slab has been seen. An extra floor is a structural decision, not a finish.
Will you keep the old structure?
When it deserves to stay. You see the opened slab and any cracked beam before we cover them again.
Call for the rate
Book the walk while the plot is still the way you found it. Fill and neighbours change. Labor rate or with material. The figure is on the phone.
