Rebuilds, new floors and fresh services on older plots.

Building in State Life Society

State Life Housing Society in Lahore is a long-established society, and many of its houses were built a generation ago. Owners now are often rebuilding, adding a floor or opening up the layout of an older home. We take on grey structure, rebuilds and house construction in State Life Housing Society, with a free site visit and a fixed quote within 24 hours.

State Life Housing Society: Phases and Plot Sizes

State Life Housing Society has two phases and lies near the Lahore Ring Road, reached through Kamahan Lidher and Bedian Road. Plot sizes include 5 Marla, 10 Marla, 14 Marla and 1 Kanal, plus some commercial plots. Plans for Phase 2 have changed over the years, so confirm the phase and block status of your plot first.

With a confirmed plot, we survey the site, check road and utility access and prepare a quote for grey structure or a full house. See our turnkey design and build service if you want one contract for design and construction.

Look at the Old Drawings

If you still have the original drawings or approvals for your house, bring them to the site visit. They help us understand what lies behind the walls.

What an Older House Hides

Older houses hold surprises. Brickwork may have been laid with different mortar, columns may be thinner than today's standard, and pipes may be buried where nobody remembers. Before we price a rebuild or extension, we inspect walls and floors, ask about previous repairs and look for damp. Our guide to damp proof course in house construction explains why moisture control belongs in a new build as well as a repair.

New Services for an Old Plot

A modern house needs more than an old one: more electrical points, better drainage, space for solar panels and water storage. Planning these in the structure, with conduits and ducts laid before plaster, is far cheaper than cutting walls afterwards. We include the service layout in the drawings and list each item in the quote.

If you are adding a floor, an engineer should check the existing foundation and columns first. Where they cannot carry the load, we price strengthening or a rebuild, and explain the options in plain terms. See our home renovation service for work on an existing house.

Inspect First, Then Decide

Before we price work on an older State Life house, we look at it: walls, slab, damp, wiring and pipes. The findings go into a short list of what is sound, what needs repair and what should be replaced, and the quote follows that list. It is slower than guessing, and it prevents the nasty surprises mid-project.

The renovation page describes how we handle old structures, and the damp proof course guide explains a common problem in them. See also Bankers Avenue Society and Central Park Housing Scheme.

FAQs

Frequently Asked Questions

What does an inspection of an old house look at?

Cracks, damp, the roof slab, wall condition, wiring and pipes. We list the findings and what each would cost to fix.

Is it worth replacing all the old wiring?

Usually, if it lacks earthing or capacity for modern appliances. We check it and say so plainly.

Can you add a floor to an older house in State Life Housing Society?

Sometimes. An engineer must confirm that the existing foundation and columns can carry it. If not, we price strengthening or a rebuild so you can compare the options.

Can an old roof slab take another floor?

Only after an engineer checks it. Some need strengthening, and some are better rebuilt.

How do I deal with damp in old walls?

Find the source first. It might be a missing damp proof course, a leak or a raised garden bed against the wall.

Do you keep the old house standing while we live in it?

Sometimes. We can sequence work in sections, but heavy structural work is easier with the house empty.
