Construction costs - Are we that far off?

2016-01-07 08:22:18

So, even in the "Ländle" it is possible to build at a reasonable price with proper equipment. However, it depends a lot on the building. Flourishes, angles, corners, frills significantly increase the cost. With a 24-page checklist, everyone (!!) will calculate a hefty "fear premium" (without knowing exactly what's in it, it could be that these are obvious things that not every lacquer shoe artist can answer). The basement is certainly the problem; I would also quickly give up on the 70,000 (with the requirements including all!! work).

Hello,

Single-family house, energy saving ordinance with gas as heat generator: TEUR 264
Utility basement: TEUR 45
Expansion to living basement: TEUR 25
Wood/aluminum windows: TEUR 10
Controlled residential ventilation with heat recovery: TEUR 14
KNX: TEUR 10
Parquet; rest tiles: TEUR 25
Painting work: TEUR 15
Chimney draft + stove: TEUR 15 - "x"
Double finished garage 6.00 x 6.00 m: TEUR 13 (incl. strip foundations and sectional door)

All in estimated, approx.: TEUR 436 plus incidental building costs TEUR 40 plus reserve for extras.

Except for the surveyor costs + wood stove, this will be of no use to you; neither in the case of house construction via architect nor general contractor. None of the craftsmen will provide the required equipment. And if they do, then at the expense of the hourly wage!

Do without wood/aluminum windows and KNX; electric shutters operated via switch up/down are sufficient, if savings are desired.

Rhenish regards

Painting work 15,000.-€ ???
I would rather set the red pen here; almost everyone should be able to handle the paint roller.
Otherwise, are no EL possible?

Only that painting work encompasses more than just the actual brushing.

What do you count as all that, I mean anyone should be able to mask off and stick a strip of paper to the wall, also called wallpapering, is not rocket science either, I say as an academic...

It seems we are not entirely wrong about the basement costs (45+25 TEUR). Does anyone else have experience with this?

Offer from our general contractor from the north for a usable basement with 6 "windows" and casemates measuring 14 x 9.24m and 2.30m room height, basic electrical, water and only 6cm exterior insulation (will be increased)...

59 TEUR for a black tank;
in white WU version: + 9 TEUR on top.

Drainage as suspenders to the WU belt would be another 8 grand on top...

Painting basement in simplest spray technique around 3 TEUR.
Painting, filling, painting fleece for house walls + ceiling 200 sqm: 12,500 TEUR.
