What is the difference between grey structure and turnkey construction?

Grey structure stops at the shell. Turnkey continues through agreed finishing to handover. Compare both Rawalpindi service pages, then confirm in the BOQ.

How much does grey structure cost in Rawalpindi?

Use the cost calculator with grey structure and a Rawalpindi location band selected. As a planning guide, grey structure commonly lands around PKR 3,200–3,500 per sqft — the same band published in the 2026 construction cost guide. A written quote still needs drawings and a site review. Plot size, covered area, soil and piles still move the preliminary range.

Is MEP included in grey structure?

MEP rough-ins (electrical and plumbing conduits as listed) are typically included. Fixtures, switches, sanitary ware and finishing are not — unless the BOQ says otherwise.

How long does a grey structure take?

Timelines depend on storeys, soil and site access. The calculator shows a preliminary month range; the signed programme after drawings is the contract timeline.

What is grey structure construction in Rawalpindi?

Grey structure is the structural shell of a house: foundations, the RCC frame, masonry, slabs, basic plaster and MEP rough-ins — without interior finishes such as flooring, paint or fixtures. Tryino Homes delivers that scope in Rawalpindi against a written Bill of Quantities.

Planning bands for grey structure run roughly PKR 3,200–3,500 per sqft on the live calculator, though covered area, soil conditions and whether piling is needed move the total — a written quote still needs drawings and a site review. Drawings follow the desk that actually stamps the file: Bahria Town phases, DHA Rawalpindi and Faisal schemes do not share one CDA counter. Engineering supervision covers stage reviews on the structure itself, not just a final walkthrough, with weekly photo reports through foundations, framing and MEP rough-ins.

Grey structure is the shell — finishes stay out unless the BOQ says otherwise

Tryino Homes delivers that scope against a written BOQ with engineering supervision and weekly photo reports. Kitchens, flooring, paint and fixtures stay out unless they are written in. Drawings follow the authority that actually governs the plot — Bahria Town, DHA Rawalpindi, Faisal schemes or a local body — not a copied CDA set.

Many owners complete grey structure first, then finish later or sell the shell. Others continue with Tryino into semi-finished or turnkey. Compare scopes before you lock a package name. Use the cost table and calculator with a Rawalpindi location band — not a fixed quotation.
