Basement cost 16.8 Lacs - 70% of first floor

[Rlokes]

Hi ,

We are constructing house on 1450sqft plot. Contractor is quoting 70 % of the cost of first floor. First floor is about 1200sqft and he is charging at the rate of Rs.2000. So the total cost of basement would be 16.8 Lacs

Basement requirement is as below :

Two distinct sumps for storing rain water and corporation water
Two pumps with separate pipelines till first floor (we are planning to construct till first floor only)
Tiles flooring in the basement
5 ft wall

Please advise , as it appears total rip off. Many thanks in advance.

Regards,
Lokesh

Hi...Rlokes

The rate quoted is very much fine with me since I am an Architect.Usually basement will cost you double the cost of regular floor depending on the depth you go below.You are going only 5'depth so its fine & also he is inculding 2 sumps and also flooring work you can go ahead is what I feel & its reasonable.
