Part of Renovation & Rebuilding in Lahore · Construction services in Lahore · Garden Town guide
Garden Town is a central, long-established neighbourhood near Kalma Chowk, where many houses on 10 Marla to 2 Kanal plots were built a generation or more ago. For most owners, house renovation Garden Town now means one of two paths: a full rebuild on a valuable central plot, or a thorough renovation to bring an old house up to date.
Clients here are premium and usually long-term residents, so the brief tends to focus on comfort and quality rather than speed: better insulation and waterproofing, new plumbing and wiring, larger kitchens and a modern elevation. The central location also means heavy traffic around the area, which affects how materials are delivered. Some families move out during a rebuild, while others stay on during a renovation and need the contractor to work in phases, finishing one part of the house before opening up the next. Say which you prefer when you post the job.
- Full rebuilds of older family homes
- Deep renovations with new services
- Modern elevations and roof waterproofing
- Interior redesign and kitchen upgrades
