Our portfolio spans commercial plazas, modern office buildings, institutional facilities, retail outlets, and warehouse structures. We have also earned the trust of government bodies, having successfully delivered projects for the Government of Punjab, the Department of Archaeology, and the Pakistan Red Crescent Society.
What sets us apart is our commitment to doing things properly. We use quality materials sourced from trusted Pakistani suppliers, employ skilled labor with real trade experience, and follow modern engineering practices at every stage. We do not cut corners, and we do not disappear mid-project. Our clients stay informed from the first foundation pour to the final finishing touches, with clear timelines, transparent billing, and a dedicated project manager on every job.

Our successful track record with government departments and public institutions demonstrates our ability to meet the highest standards of quality, compliance, and documentation in construction.
Our Commercial Construction Process
We follow a structured, milestone-driven process that keeps your commercial project on track from initial consultation to final handover.
Initial Consultation & Site Assessment
We start by understanding your business requirements, budget range, and project goals. Our team visits the site to assess soil conditions, access points, utility availability, and any existing structures. This information forms the foundation for accurate planning and cost estimation.
Design, Planning & Approvals
Working with our architectural and structural engineering partners, we develop detailed construction drawings, structural calculations, and MEP layouts. We assist with obtaining the necessary approvals from local authorities including LDA, CDA, or RDA as applicable. You receive a comprehensive Bill of Quantities (BOQ) with itemized costs.
Grey Structure Construction
The heavy lifting begins with excavation, foundation work, column and beam construction, slab casting, and brickwork. We use tested-grade concrete and verified steel reinforcement throughout. Regular quality inspections and progress reports keep you informed at every milestone.
MEP & Finishing Work
Electrical wiring, plumbing, HVAC ductwork, fire safety systems, and data cabling are installed according to approved drawings. Finishing work includes plastering, tiling, painting, false ceilings, aluminum and glass work, and exterior facade installation. Every detail is checked against the approved specifications.
Quality Inspection & Handover
Before handover, we conduct a thorough snagging and quality check covering every aspect of the construction. Any deficiencies are rectified before you take possession. You receive complete project documentation including as-built drawings, material test certificates, and warranty information for all installed systems.
Frequently Asked Questions
How much does commercial construction cost per square foot in Lahore?
Commercial construction costs in Lahore typically range from PKR 3,500 to PKR 7,500 per square foot depending on the type of building, number of floors, structural requirements, and level of finishing. A basic grey structure commercial building will cost less than a fully finished, HVAC-equipped office complex. We provide a detailed BOQ-based quotation after understanding your specific requirements so you get an accurate figure rather than a rough guess.
How long does it take to build a commercial plaza in Pakistan?
The construction timeline for a commercial plaza depends on the size, number of floors, and scope of work. A typical 4-5 story commercial plaza takes approximately 12 to 18 months from foundation to handover. Larger or more complex projects with basements and specialized systems may take 18 to 24 months. We provide a detailed Gantt chart timeline at the start of every project and share weekly progress updates to keep you informed.
Do you handle building approvals and permits?
Yes. We assist with the entire approval process including building plan submissions to the Lahore Development Authority (LDA), Capital Development Authority (CDA) in Islamabad, or Rawalpindi Development Authority (RDA). Our team prepares the necessary documentation and coordinates with the relevant authorities to secure construction permits before work begins.
Can you work with our architect or do we need to use yours?
We are flexible on both fronts. If you already have an architect and approved drawings, we can work as a construction-only contractor and build according to those plans. If you need design services, we have trusted architectural and structural engineering partners we can bring on board. Either way, we ensure the design is buildable, cost-effective, and compliant with local building codes.
What areas do you serve for commercial construction?
We actively serve Lahore, Islamabad, and Rawalpindi for commercial construction projects. Within Lahore, we cover all areas including DHA, Bahria Town, Gulberg, Johar Town, Model Town, Wapda Town, and areas along the Ring Road and Multan Road corridors. In Islamabad, we serve Blue Area, I-sectors, and surrounding commercial zones. We also consider projects in other cities across Punjab on a case-by-case basis.
