Houses built for your plot, not from a catalogue.
An independent house in Kolathur and one in Sholinganallur sit on completely different ground. We design the foundation from the soil report, not from a standard detail.
Most residential builders in Chennai work from a small set of repeated floor plates because it is cheaper to build what they have built before. That is fine until your plot is an awkward shape, your water table is high, or you actually want something specific.
We have been building individual homes since 1983 — which means we have made the mistakes already and know which shortcuts cost the owner money five years later.
Scope of work
Independent houses & villas
Single-family homes on plots from 1,200 sq ft upward, designed around the plot rather than a template.
Apartment blocks
Small and mid-sized residential blocks, built for owner-occupiers or for sale.
Interiors & turnkey finish
Carried through to a finished, move-in-ready house if you want a single point of responsibility.
Additional floors
Vertical extensions on existing structures, subject to a structural assessment of what the existing columns can actually take.
What we check before quoting
Soil and water table
A soil test before design, not after. In parts of north Chennai the water table sits under two metres and that alone decides the foundation type.
Flood history of the street
We look at 2015 levels for your specific road before fixing plinth height. It is the cheapest insurance in the whole build.
Approval status of the plot
Patta, approvals and setbacks verified before design work begins, so the drawing you approve is the drawing that can be built.
Access and stacking
On tight plots, where material goes is a real constraint. It changes the programme and we price it honestly rather than discovering it later.
Frequently asked
What does it cost to build a house in Chennai in 2026?
For standard residential specification, expect roughly ₹1,850–₹2,300 per sq ft of built-up area; premium specification runs ₹2,400–₹3,200. Those are indicative ranges — soil condition, plot access and finish level move them. Our cost calculator gives you a working figure in about ninety seconds.
How long does an independent house take?
A typical 2,000–2,500 sq ft independent house runs 10–13 months from foundation to handover, assuming approvals are already in place. Monsoon months slow structure work, so a build starting in September finishes differently from one starting in February.
Do you handle approvals?
Yes. CMDA or local body approvals, plan sanction and completion formalities are handled as part of the project.
Can I build in stages?
Often yes — a ground floor completed and occupied with structural provision for a first floor later. It has to be designed for from the start, because retrofitting that capability is expensive.
