Building in Garden Town
Garden Town is an established residential area in Lahore where most plots already carry a house, so building usually means replacing or extending one. Owners here tend to want a modern layout on a plot they know well, with close attention to how the new walls meet the old ones next door. We take on grey structure and full house construction in Garden Town, with a free site visit before every quote.
Garden Town: Blocks and Plot Sizes
Garden Town is an established central Lahore neighbourhood of roughly 7,000 Kanal, divided into around a dozen blocks such as Ali, Ahmed, Abu Bakr, Usman, Ata Turk, Sher Shah, Tipu and Babar. Plot sizes differ a lot between blocks, from small 5 Marla plots up to large Kanal-size plots, and many original large plots have since been subdivided.
Because plot sizes and street widths vary block by block, we measure each plot on site before drawing. In an older, fully built area we also check the neighbours' walls, drainage and floor levels and plan how materials will reach the plot. See our house construction service for the full process.
Match the Level to Your Neighbours
Where adjacent houses are already built, floor levels and drainage direction are set by what is around you. We take levels at the site visit so the new floor, gate and drain sit correctly against the street and the next plot.
Older Streets, Older Services
In areas built decades ago, drainage lines, water connections and electricity cables were laid for the houses of that time. A new, larger house puts a new load on them. We check where your connections run at the site visit and plan the sewer, water and electrical points so they can be connected cleanly rather than patched later. If a line needs upgrading, you hear it in the quote, not halfway through the build.
Demolish, Extend or Add a Floor?
Before choosing, compare three routes. Full demolition gives a clean plan and a new foundation. Extending to the back or side keeps part of the house and adds room. Adding a floor works only if the existing foundation and columns can carry it, and that needs an engineer's check, not a guess. Our grey structure mistakes guide lists the errors we see most when owners skip that check.
Whichever route you take, a written scope that separates old work from new work saves arguments later. We list each item in the quote so you can see exactly what the price covers.
What We Check Before Quoting an Extra Floor
An added floor is only sensible if the old structure can carry it. At the visit we look at wall thickness, cracks, the condition of the roof slab and how the foundation was built, then tell you plainly whether to add, strengthen or rebuild. The renovation page explains how we handle the join between old and new work.
If the answer is a rebuild, the pricing page gives per square foot rates by scope. You may also want to compare Bankers Avenue Society and DHA Lahore, where owners face similar choices.
Frequently Asked Questions
How do you know if my old house can take another floor?
We inspect the walls, roof slab and foundation, look for cracks and settlement, and an engineer's check decides. Sometimes strengthening is needed first.
Will the family have to move out during an extension?
Not always. Work can be sequenced so part of the house stays usable, but dust and noise are real, and some owners prefer to move for the heaviest weeks.
Can you add a floor to my existing house in Garden Town?
Possibly. It depends on whether the existing foundation and columns can carry the extra load, which an engineer must confirm. If they cannot, we price strengthening or a rebuild instead.
How are old and new walls joined in Garden Town?
The new work is tied into the old with proper detailing so cracks do not follow the join. We show the detail on the drawing.
Is it cheaper to extend than to rebuild?
Not by default. A weak structure can make an extension cost more than starting again, so we price both after inspecting.
Do Garden Town streets limit deliveries?
Older streets can be narrow, so we check access at the visit and plan smaller or timed deliveries where needed.
