Construction contractor

Shell construction and finishing. These are the 2 main processes when you build or renovate. The construction cost ratio is on average 60 / 40. The more you invest in the building envelope, and in other words the more you invest in more energy-efficient homes, the more expensive the shell works will become.

The number of square meters, the load-bearing capacity of the foundation and the materials (bricks, roof tiles, large windows, etc.) you choose are determining factors for the total cost price.

What does shell construction cost per m2?

It is difficult for us to give a specific answer to this. Does your construction company also take care of the finishing? Of course, all this has an influence on the price.

Roughly estimated, the target price of an 'average home' is 1.200 to 1.600 euros per m2. Shell construction accounts for approximately 60% of the construction cost. This may of course be more or less depending on your specific situation. The more you invest in the building envelope of your home, the more expensive the cost will be.
