Cost Estimation Mistake: Why Guessing Can Break Your Construction Budget

Описание: When planning a home, the first question every homeowner asks is simple — “Kitna kharcha hoga?”
But the answer they usually get is a rough guess… followed by the classic line: “Sir, iss amount se ek rupiya bhi zyada nahi lagega.”

And that’s where things start going wrong.

Relying on vague estimates from contractors, relatives, or neighbours often leads to budget shocks, delays, and incomplete construction.
Because no two projects are ever the same — plot conditions, design, materials, finishes… everything changes the cost.

What NOT to do:
❌ Don’t start construction based on someone else’s budget
❌ Don’t trust ballpark figures
❌ Don’t rely on “approx cost” promises

What to DO instead:
✔ Use a proper Construction Cost Calculator
✔ Understand material + labour + finish-level breakup
✔ Plan your finances without last-minute surprises

In construction, guessing the cost doesn’t save money — it costs you more.
