Realistic cost estimate: Single-family house with unfavorable development location

2023-01-23 17:20:14

Interesting. My wife was at the topping-out ceremony in her 5th month. In 3 weeks we have the house handover, the little one will then be 6 months old, the older one is 6 years old. Since my wife was on parental leave and I was generously treated by my employer because of the little one, it was a fairly low-stress time. And I can invest my 2 months of paid parental leave completely into the final construction phase this year, in addition to my 38 days of vacation.

What is supposed to be unfavorable about that?

Well-founded statements about long-distance line developments could certainly be obtained from the forum, just unfortunately not from the crystal ball.

Speaking of crystal balls: as promised, I’ve now drawn a (ultra-ugly) plan with the lines known so far. I have not yet received sewer data. I kindly ask you to refrain from criticizing the ugliness of the image; I am fully aware of it :D

we have a new building on a similar plot, 60+ m driveway with the front house in family ownership, my thoughts on that.
- driveway north or south possible, advantage north there is already a path, disadvantages, construction road will damage it,
nobody can park there.
- driveway south, to be newly created with construction road, pipes interfere,
family decision.
Water, telecom, sewage and electricity must be newly installed for the new house (under the driveway).
We don’t have gas, offer for 70m 13,000€.
Sewage, new house -80cm, -70cm slope, the channel must be at least 1.8m lower than OKFB, even lower if there is a cellar.
Creation of the construction road, laying sewage, electricity and empty conduits underneath was done by our civil engineer.
Sewage, a maintenance opening for hose or HD cleaner every 20m.
If there are any further questions, feel free ;)

Construction road establishment, laying sewage, electricity and empty pipes underneath was done by the civil engineer for us. Sewage, every 20m a inspection opening for hose or high-pressure cleaner. If there are further questions, feel free ;)

13,000 is very reasonable. We were now told everything from 10,000 to 70,000 by someone, but it’s very interesting to hear from someone who has actually gone through it themselves. Thanks for sharing! Was it "digging on a greenfield" for you or did an existing driveway have to be dug up?

or did an existing driveway also have to be dug up?

we had the choice,
1. completely new through the beautiful garden
or
2. into the driveway, with garage and two sheds removed.
The family decision was 2.
A construction road was required with us for 40 tons,
excavate 40 cm, trench in the middle for wastewater and empty pipes 0.5 to 1 m deeper, 0.5 m wide, everything laid in.
Sand by the pipes and recycling in, compact, construction road finished.
The civil engineer was also the paver and was supposed to prepare suitably for a 10-ton paved driveway

Please refrain from criticizing the ugliness of the image, I am well aware of all that

Beauty does not matter in technical drawings, but I have to complain about the information content: the plan section is too narrow, be less stingy there. I see an initial suspicion that the property could be connected to the networks much more cleverly over the pipe head on the right side of the plan than under the bushes through a GFL right over the relative's property. Many well-founded assessments can be made here if you do not only get to the relevant basics on page 9.
