What it costs, before anybody has to ring us

Published starting figures for every service we offer. They are honest ranges rather than quotations, and the page says which is which.

Starting figures

What things cost before we have seen your plot

These are the numbers we would give you on the phone. A real price comes from a measured bill of quantities broken down by trade, and it takes about two weeks to prepare.

Advice and drawings

Everything that happens before anybody digs. Charged as a fee, and credited against the build if you go ahead with us.

First site visit and feasibility

Two hours on the plot, a written note on ground, access and services, and a build cost within about ten per cent.

GHS 1,500

Measured survey and existing drawings

For refurbishments. We measure what is there and draw it properly, which is the thing every later argument turns on.

from GHS 6,000

Architectural package and permit submission

Concept through to permit drawings, the Assembly submission and the answers to their comments.

from GHS 25,000

Building work

Per square metre of finished floor, at today's material prices. The range within each line is finishes; the range between them is scope.

Renovation and refurbishment

Strip out, replaster, rewire, replumb and finish. Occupied jobs are planned in zones and cost a little more.

from GHS 2,800 / m²

Commercial fit-out

Partitions, ceilings, power, data and finishes into a shell somebody else built.

from GHS 3,600 / m²

New build, shell and core

Substructure, frame, envelope, roof and incoming services. Ready for a fit-out contractor.

from GHS 6,500 / m²

New build, turnkey

The same, finished and furnished to the point where you can move in and use the building.

from GHS 9,200 / m²

Management only

For clients who already have a builder, or who are running several packages at once. Priced as a share of the contract sum, so our interest and yours point the same way.

Full project management

Programme, procurement, site meetings, valuations and handover. We hold the whole thing.

8 – 12% of contract

Contract administration only

Valuations, variations, certificates and the paperwork a bank or a board needs to see.

4 – 6% of contract

Prices exclude VAT and NHIL. Valid for tenders issued in 2026.

About money

How we price and what happens when it changes

How do you price a job?

From a measured bill of quantities, broken down by trade, with our preliminaries and margin shown separately. You can see what every line costs. We do not price by the square metre except as a rough guide at the first meeting.

What happens if I change my mind mid-build?

You get a written variation with a price and a programme effect before any work starts, and you sign it or you do not. Nothing gets built on a conversation. It is slower on the day and much cheaper at the end.

What cover do I get after handover?

A twelve-month defects liability period on everything we built, plus whatever the manufacturers give on the products. We come back at six months and at eleven months whether you have called us or not.

Do you take on small jobs?

Below about GHS 60,000 we usually cannot do it justice — the overhead of running a proper site does not scale down. We will happily point you at two smaller firms we trust, and we do it often.
