Checklist for home constructions - effective placement of fixtures

While preparing the checklist for home constructions, we often underestimate the significance of fixtures. Home fixtures consist of electrical fixtures throughout the house, bathroom fixtures, and kitchen appliances and so on. For a modern home it is essential to have appliances and fixtures that reflect the aura of the house and completely go in synch with it. You can say that the fixtures installed are the functional accessories of the house.
You need to discuss with the home builders about what kind of products and materials they are using for the fixtures. It would help you understand their quality and durability. Apart from that it is important to know the right place to fix them in the house for optimal use as well as enhanced look of the house.

Let’s have a look on the most common fixtures and their effective placement across the house.
Electrical supplies
Being in the home construction industry for years, the home builders obviously have a fair idea about the right placement of home fixtures. But, they are hardly aware of the lifestyle needs of your every family member. So, enlighten them with the details as which room would be occupied by whom and what kind of fixtures and lighting you need over there. It would help them to install the items at the points instructed by you. Suppose, you have old parents staying with you, for whom finding the light to go to the loo is difficult. Here you can ask the builders to get the switch fixed near the bed, so that they can switch it on before getting down from the bed and see things properly.
Including HVAC
Usually HVAC placement is done by the builder seeing where the AC duct needs to be let out and at which place the heater should be installed. Though in India not all homes need a heating system throughout the country, but the northern and north-eastern states would need it during the winters. When you choose new home constructions involving modern building techniques like precast, the there is less expenses in terms of HVAC utility bills, as these prefab homes offer thermal insulation to the indoors from the harsh outdoor climate.
Kitchen
Kitchen is a place where the heart of a family lies as it’s the source of their daily nourishment and happiness. There are numerous fixtures in the kitchen which needs to be fitted rightly. Starting from the water purifier, microwave, juicer, gas stove, chimney, refrigerator, dish washer and so on, they are an integral part of your everyday needs. Though, there is specific height and location designated to install them, you can always get them customized in your new home, according to your accessibility and convenience to operate them.
Bathroom
Bathroom fixtures are a wide range of things from the plumbing and lighting to sinks, bathtubs and geysers etc. the list goes on. Depending upon the availability of natural light to your bathroom the builder decides where to fix the lights. If you want to groom the bathroom then you can even go for lights on the wall scones, to create a beautiful effect, without cutting off enough light to carry out the desired task efficiently. Mirrors and changing rooms should have proper lighting, as they help you see yourself better while getting ready. Make sure that the bath tub has faucets with extensions, to allow you flexibility in using it. Now, a days people even install music systems in their bathroom, so it’s important that these equipment should be kept at a place that is not prone to moisture.

Evolution of architectural designers in India

Though the history of Indian architecture spans back to the dates unknown, the styles of the architects in India have been acknowledged to construct world-class structures. Their understanding in the field, the usage of new materials, and advanced technologies, architecture and engineering began to evolve as well.

Architectural designers started to concentrate on the aesthetic and humanist aspects, specifically to the technical aspects of designing buildings as they are knowledgeable enough for designing technologically innovative architectural structures. To be among the top architects in India, they need to have a keen knowledge of art, science, technology and humanity.
Architectural designers

A proficient architect always has a clear plan for designing form, space and ambience to reflect the useful, social, environmental and technical aesthetics of any given space. He or she has to be very creative and flexible with the ideas to get accepted as one of the finest architects of India. They are knowledgeable with advanced technologies such as prefabricated constructions and 3D designing.

The architectural designs in India sprang from its rich culture, diverse history and different religions followed by the people. It becomes important for competent architectural designers to draw inspiration from all the architectural methods that have been there since ages and upgrade their skills with contemporary techniques of architecture. Modern Top architects in India are the results of examination and implementation of the established building traditions and outside cultural influences.
Top architects in India

From the great Indus Valley Civilization to the Indo-Islamic architecture and the modern architectural designs, India has always shown profound versatility. Be it the palaces or the mud huts, Indian architects have a rich legacy to deal with.

To make it simpler, we have mentioned the different forms of architecture in India and the way they have evolved across periods:

The Indus Valley Civilization

As you all know that the Indus Valley civilisation was a Bronze Age civilisation and is one of the earliest civilisations of the world having famous architectural designs. The architects in India at that time were capable of accentuating unique and rare features (during that time) such as houses with one or more toilets or multiple toilets connected to a centralised system. The great bath, the streets, the granary and the wells were the inspiring concepts of architectures in the Indus Valley civilisation.

5 things to remember – while searching the perfect place to build a new custom home

A home is the safety cocoon where you shut the chaotic world out and retire into the warmth of familiarity and comfort. So, it is an integral step to choose the best place to build a home. Before you plan to build a new custom home, there are various things to keep in mind in order to accomplish the dream.


 There are new technologies being implemented in home building and you must explore more to bargain the best deals for your new custom home. The most crucial part though, is to find the right place to build a new custom home. Precast homes can serve you the best for getting a custom built home within the shortest time span.
Here we bring the most significant factors to consider while choosing the location of the plot/land for your custom home. We, believe choosing the perfect place is not too difficult, it involves taking care of the
  1. Availability of potable water resource
No matter where you prefer to build your house – be it a sea side plot or a valley in the mountains, in the middle of a chaotic city or a secluded place away from the hustle bustle, natural resources such as potable water play a key role in finalizing the deal. Without proper drinkable water, you possibly can’t stay in that place for few days, forget about building a home. When you enquire about buying the plot, make sure to ask about the fresh water resources and at what level the underground water is availed.
  1. Convenient to access facilities
Once, you have the need of natural resources at hand; proceed to the next important thing – convenience of facilities. It means facilities such as post offices, schools, hospitals, fire brigade, police stations, and banks availability in the locality, as well as their distance from the location. Now a days gas connection is given through underground pipelines, so make sure to enquire about that as well. If you are planning to buy a prefab home, it would be easy to do so in a proper piece of land.
  1. Road connectivity
Road connectivity is an important aspect of finalizing a location to build a new custom home. It would help you in transporting the raw goods/masonry for building conventional or prefab homes, commuting to and fro for work, as well staying connected to your friends and extended families.
  1. Easy to develop land/plot
Now, the kind of land to select for building your custom precast homes. The land or plot should be free of huge rocks and probably not a wetland, in case you are building a conventional house. But, for prefab homes, wetlands can be utilized for building a beautiful home. Usually being a modern day technique of home building, in precast the foundation in such wetland or river bed can be made using the piling technique. It allows the ground to get the load properly distributed without causing any harm to the house in future.

  1. Pollution free
The location should be pollution free. Always select a healthy environment for building a custom home. As in future places get populated and more polluted, choosing less crowded and pollution free place would allow you to breathe in fresh air as much as possible.
Apart from the above points, you need to remember that any place that makes you spend more money to make the place habitable is a loss. Saving money during construction and land selection would benefit you in other ways.

How to find the right builder for new house

right builders, builders for new home, how to find a new home builder
5 ways to hire the right builder
Owning a dream house is in everyone’s ‘to-do’ list. Sometimes people get carried away and do not pay heed while choosing the right builders and end up disappointed. A home is your security net after retirement or as an investment. Choosing the right builders for your new home would require focusing on some important aspects and reap the benefits in the long run.
Here are five quick notes to make sure you hire the right builders for constructing your new home:
  1. Reputed name in the locality
Property builders, both new and old, would always insist that their plans are the most suitable ones for your home. Here you are the one to take the final call. Check if the construction company is a reputed one in your locality. To grab a cheaper deal, never opt for an unknown name in the construction industry. It might gravely impact your finances.
  1. Considerable the amount of experience
Now that you have spotted few of the builders in your locality with a good repute, get in-depth knowledge about the market. Inquire about their experience in the construction business as well as the kind of projects they have done. The more reputed their clients are, the higher are  the chances of dependability and credibility to their work. For residential houses, ask them for references and if possible pay a visit to their ex-clientele and see the quality of work done. It helps you in understanding how they would visualize your dream home’s design and give it a shape.
  1. Flexible to follow your design
While focusing on the reliability of the builder, ensure that they are flexible enough to follow your home design rather than imposing their own ideas and designs. No one understands you and your family’s requirements better than you. Explaining what kind of home you want and which room would suit which member of the family, is your responsibility that you need to convey to the builder. Ask if they implement modern technologies like prefab homes in case you want to build your house at the earliest.

  1. Efficient to get quality material for cheap
The housing contractor may purchase building materials that are expensive than your budget. In this case, you need to keep an eye that the home builder is buying the right material for a cheaper rate without exceeding your budget. This way you can invest more time in other important facets of home building.

Efficient to get quality material for cheap
  1. Authorized by the local Government building authority
Last but not the least, check out if the contractor is authorized to carry out construction work in your locality. Otherwise, the government authorities might ban them from working on your new house and it would jeopardize the construction and delay it.
