This will determine what soil you have and what kind of slab you have to pour.

Ask these people to do job as whole package no just per job show them the drawing.

Surveyor cost - Draw up level of the land

Independant review and inspection cost

Ok so once the land is level the plumber put in the Drain and Pipes
Gas pipe is in, phone and electrician line is in, it is ready for the slab to poured.

Engineer slab design and draw up cost

Concretor Cost
They will do formwork or Boxing of the slab, vapour barrier is a plastic sheet laid over the entire slab area between the slab and ground. They put in the reinforcement still wire in the slab. And finally pour the slab.
All this is done by 1 company so the cost is fix

You can hire an independant inspector to review and inspect before the lab is poured.

Engineer design and draw up frame cost

FRAMING Cost all this is done by one company. They do all the framing from wall frame to roof trusses. Fully deliver and install. Since they do it all you can have a fix cost here. Lot of builder use Prefabricated roof that is the company premade the whole frame of your house to your specification and all they do is delivered it. This save time. and Their is no wastage when cutting it yourself.

Or you can put it together yourself.

 Other cost I'll post later once I find out.
