House construction stages and the team each stage needs

An architect prepares the plan and drawings; a structural engineer designs the foundation and frame. Approvals from the local authority are taken before construction starts.

Helpers for digging, a mason, bar benders and shuttering carpenters. Soil conditions decide the foundation type; follow the structural drawings.

Columns, beams and slabs need bar benders, shuttering carpenters, masons and a helper team for concreting. Curing after each pour is essential for strength.

Masons with helpers build walls and plaster them. Plumbing and electrical conduits are fixed before plaster closes the walls.

Plumbers and electricians lay lines, then test them before finishes. Waterproofing of bathrooms and the terrace is done at this stage.

Tile fitters, carpenters, painters, fabricators for grills and railings, and interior work if planned. A final check of every item before handover.

Link contractor payments to completed and checked stages, and keep a small retention until defects are corrected after handover.
