Brick&Bolt conducts a series of background checks on a contractor before they are allowed to work with us. These checks include document checks like the GST registrations, income tax filings etc. Then physical verification of the projects that are under construction as well as completed by the contractor are verified by the team from Brick&Bolt. Such contractors are then monitored and rated through a continuous assessment system so that the best contractors are alloted more projects.

Question 11

Question 14

What if the prices of the materials increase when the project is ongoing. Would there be a price escalation?

Accepted Answer

The pricing of our contracts is frozen on a stamp paper. Hence, the prices remain stable in most of the scenarios. Only in exceptional situations where there is a sudden spike in prices due to external circumstances, the price variation is to be paid by the client. On the other hand, if there is a price drop, clients get a price reduction for the same.

Question 15

What are the major factors on which house construction cost depends?

Accepted Answer

The construction cost of a house majorly depends upon the Super built-up area, Open area( ie Balcony, Utility), Quality of Construction materials, and Interiors. Brick&Bolt provides various packages at different prices to suit your needs.

Question 16

What is a super built-up area, built-up area, and carpet area?

Accepted Answer

Carpet Area is the total usable area inside the house that can be covered by Carpet. The carpet area excludes the balcony and other utility areas but does include the area covered by internal walls. Built-up Area is the sum of carpet area plus the area covered by the balcony, terrace, and other utility as well. The Super built-up area is the total sum of the built-up area and space occupied by common areas like lobby, staircase, elevator, shafts, and clubhouse. This is often referred to as a saleable area.

Question 17

Does Brick&Bolt businesses charge an advance payment?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Brick&Bolt collects a booking amount of about 2% of the total home construction cost. Alongside this, we conduct digital surveys, perform soil tests, and create a floor plan.

Question 18

What is the estimated time it will take to build a full house?

Accepted Answer

It takes 6 to 14 months to complete a house construction project. Generally, a 5-month period to build the first floor and 1.5 months for each one after that is the standard. However, this depends on the space, built-up area, locations, design, construction type (foundation or core), etc. You can track your project, including updates, inspection reports, payment schedules, etc., on the customer app.

Question 19

Do I have to pay the full amount before the project starts?

Accepted Answer

No. You will have to pay different amounts based on the personalised payment schedule curated based on the construction stages of your project. We charge a 2% booking amount. 8% of the total amount is collected once the floor plan is finalised. Our construction company then moves forward with structural drawings, MEP drawings, 3D elevation drawings, and the initiation of contractor allocation. After the completion of the design phase, the finalised product is handed over to the project management team. This is where you have to pay 15% of the project value until the plinth is constructed. From here on, the remaining payment will be based on stages specific to the project.
