wall building system moladi
How much does it cost to build with moladi?
 
Cost per square meter (floor area) is not a form of measurement and is impossible to provide a cost before certain factors are taken into consideration
Due to the global diversity with regard to house design and style, it is the responsibility of the client to provide a detailed design, resulting in aesthetics socially acceptable to the culture in question.  It is impossible for moladi to fulfil the role of architect and we do not provide house designs.  The design of the home is supplied by the client and once received, the moladi team will ensure that the formwork is designed to accommodate the specified design.  Once the cost to build the structure with moladi has been calculated, then the cost can be divided by the floor area and only then can a cost per square meter be quoted.

Local indigenous material cost:
moladi allows for the construction process to take place anywhere in the world, making use of indigenous labour and materials.  It is imperative to obtain the local raw material and labour cost.  Once we have received the information requested, our Projects Department will convert your design into a moladi mould or kit and this layout design will be forwarded for your approval.  Once approved, the cost estimate is prepared and forwarded using the specific material cost supplied for that particular country.

 

Detailed cost estimate

 

the detailed cost estimate is divided into categories:

 

Finishing

  • windows
  • doors
  • roof
  • ceiling
  • plumbing
  • electrical
  • paint

south african suppliers and prices are used in our cost estimate for finishing in the categories above

these cost should be replaced in the cost estimate with pricing relevant to indigenous cost of finishing material suppliers in order to recalculate the cost of the unit.
