Hi Guy, Does anyone know much it would cost me to do a raft foundation in a swamp, I just purchased a plot of land in Opic and intend to build a duplex with 2 2bedroom flat on the side. The ground in a swamp you can literally see water on it, but that how most other plot were before construction was done. I was advised all houses in opic are done with raft. Any advise for cost estimation. |

david0007: Get an Engineer to help you. There has to be an on site assessment of the Land. Also there has to be a structural and architectural drawing. Those are the things that will determine the cost estimate. |

Macphenson: Am aware of this, and plan to do so at some point. I just want to get a a figure to work with, so i can prepare myself mentally. For the Engineers here with experience in raft foundation, what should someone budget in 2022 for the cost of just doing a raft foundation for a duplex and 2 bedrroom. Can it cost up to 20m? |

david0007: No it wont be up to #20M. between #6 to #8m should do it comfortablly. Though I will make a more informed decision is I sight the site. |

It depends on the size of the building. And the height you need to cover to be above road level. Projects around there in recent times have been between 6 - 10M depending on the size of the building. I did also advise you consider a twin duplex if the setting of the land favours it. It will give you more value in the long wrong. Hit me up if you want to see projects we have handled in the area. |

The challenge is 2 bedroom moves faster than a duplex. |
