Civil Contractor Services in Karachi

As a civil contractor, AEC handles the structural phase of a build — foundation work, RCC framing, and slab casting — for residential and institutional projects across Karachi. This scope runs under specialization codes BC01, BC02, CE08, CE09, and CE10, the same codes covering grey structure construction. Civil contracting is typically the first stage on a new build, followed by electrical and plumbing rough-in, then finishing and handover.

Why Choose AEC — Construction in Karachi
Why AEC

Why choose AEC for construction in Karachi

Most Karachi renovation and construction projects involve at least four trades: civil works, electrical, plumbing, and finishing. When each trade is appointed separately, the client becomes the default coordinator between them. Work sequences clash. One trade damages another's finished work. Disputes over responsibility at trade interfaces go unresolved. The client pays for the rework. AEC holds twenty-six PEC specialization codes under Licence No. 17347. Civil, electrical, mechanical, and all finishing trades are delivered under one licensed contract. One site manager coordinates every trade sequence from mobilisation to handover. One written scope document covers every item of work. No verbal estimates. No post-project additions outside the agreed document.

How AEC Manages Construction Projects in Karachi
Project management

How AEC manages construction projects in Karachi

A fixed four-stage process, from first site visit to documented handover, run under Engr. Ahsan Razak on every project.

1
Stage 1

Site survey before any pricing

AEC visits every site before issuing any price. The survey identifies existing structural conditions, soil access constraints, trade sequencing requirements, and preparation works needed before construction begins. Projects priced from a phone call rather than a site visit routinely miss preparation costs. That is where most Karachi contractor cost disputes originate — at the gap between a verbal estimate and the actual site condition.

2
Stage 2

Written scope and itemised rate breakdown

Every project receives a written scope document before work begins. The document lists every item of work, the material specification, the rate, and the timeline. The client reviews and approves the scope in writing. No trade mobilises on verbal instruction. No cost is added mid-project without a written amendment to the approved scope.

3
Stage 3

Managed site execution

AEC manages all site trades under Engr. Ahsan Razak. For multi-trade projects, the sequence is planned before mobilisation. Civil preparation works are completed first. MEP rough-in follows. Finishing trades enter only after rough-in is inspected and cleared. Each stage handover is checked before the next trade begins work. This sequence prevents the finish damage and rework that arise when trades work in the wrong order.

4
Stage 4

Joint inspection and formal handover

At project completion AEC conducts a joint inspection with the client. Every item in the approved scope is checked against the delivered condition. Any item not meeting the specified standard is resolved before handover is confirmed. Handover is a documented event, not a verbal agreement.

Construction and Renovation Pricing in Karachi — AEC
Pricing Guide

Construction and Renovation Pricing in Karachi

AEC offers three pricing structures: full contract covering labour and material, labour-only where the client supplies materials, and per square foot for defined-scope works like grey structure, flooring, false ceiling, and painting. Every structure begins with a written scope and itemised rate breakdown. No work begins without written client approval.

Labour & Material

Full Contract

AEC procures all materials and manages all labour. The client pays one consolidated figure covering the full project scope. Ideal for clients who prefer zero procurement responsibility.

Client Supplies Materials

Labour Only

The client procures materials independently. AEC supplies and manages all labour. The rate is lower than full contract. Suits clients with existing supplier relationships or who prefer direct material control.

Area-Based Pricing

Per Square Foot

Priced by covered area at a fixed rate per square foot. Used for grey structure, flooring, false ceiling, and painting where scope is defined by area measurement.

Karachi Market Rate Reference

These are Karachi market context figures for 2025 and 2026 — for planning purposes only. Every project is surveyed and priced individually after a site visit.

ServiceRate per Sq FtKey Variable
Grey StructureRs. 1,800 — Rs. 2,800Foundation type, column grid, soil condition
Home Renovation — Full FinishingRs. 800 — Rs. 1,500Scope of trades, material grade
