10 Marla House Construction Cost in DHA Lahore: 2026 Line by Line Breakdown

A 10 marla house in DHA carries a finish expectation that a 10 marla in a less established society doesn't. The build itself costs roughly the same, but the finishing tier most DHA clients choose pushes the total budget meaningfully higher.

Grey structure, 10 marla, double storey

• Excavation, foundation, DPC: PKR 8 to 11 lac
• Ground floor structure: PKR 22 to 28 lac
• First floor structure: PKR 20 to 25 lac

Total build cost, 10 marla DHA

Standard tier: PKR 1.12 to 1.44 crore. Premium tier: PKR 1.41 to 1.84 crore. Luxury or fully imported tier can push 2.2 crore+. These exclude boundary wall, gate, landscaping, and any structural premium for split level designs.

Where DHA clients overspend (unintentionally)

• Mid construction design changes, every change order adds 2 to 4 weeks and 3 to 5%
• Imported tiles ordered after the rate fluctuation locks in
• Three rounds of kitchen revisions instead of a frozen final design
• Underestimated landscaping and exterior finishing, often 8 to 12 lac extra

“Lock the design before the foundation. Every change after that is paid for in rupees and weeks.”
