What's Your Question?

Estimating the Cost of Your Construction Project

Embarking on a construction project is exciting and often a little overwhelming. Once you’re ready to hire your team, you need to start by gathering construction project estimates. How do the professionals create them? Learn more, along with a few tips to help smooth the process, in this quick guide.

How Construction Project Estimates Are Created

Whenever you hear people talking about a construction project or hiring a contractor, you hear a lot about getting estimates for the work. However, how do the professionals create these estimates?

Construction projects used to require estimates done by hand. Today’s technology has changed that and provided a more efficient alternative. Construction project estimator software allows construction professionals to create prices quickly, establish a solid database for future use and compare the pricing to relevant data to make sure it’s on track, accurate and up to date, as noted by Fine Homebuilding.

Direct vs. Indirect Costs

There are many factors that go into a construction project’s cost estimate. They typically fall into one of two main categories: direct and indirect costs. Direct costs may include things like materials and labor, including wages for different parts of the team, equipment fuel and resources needed to get the job done.

Indirect costs are a little less specific. Indirect costs may include things like legal fees, bonds, transportation permits, utilities, security and quality control, as noted by Smartsheet.

Common Factors in Construction Project Estimates

Creating estimates is a complex process. Similar construction projects are often a go-to reference for many contractors and homeowners alike who look to the final cost of similar projects to gain a ballpark idea of the final price tag. The constructor points out that additional factors go into the cost, including:

• Cost of construction materials, including applicable taxes and shipping fees
• Labor wages, which vary from place to place and could vary widely among subcontractors
• Site conditions where the construction project takes place could affect the cost. For example, if there’s poor soil, utility conflicts or heavy traffic, it could increase the project costs
• Inflation has to be factored in, especially for large projects that might not be completed for several years
• Regulatory requirements, approvals and permits
• Insurance requirements for workers, tools and general liability may increase with some projects

Finding the Best Construction Project Estimator Software

For construction professionals, having the right construction project estimator software on their side makes all the difference. Business.com came out with a list of some of the best options, which include:

• ProContractor Estimating and PlanSwift, each of which is simple to learn and use
• B2W Estimate, which offers access to numerous supplier databases for up-to-date pricing
• Sage Estimating, which is geared toward commercial construction projects

Tips for Homeowners

Embarking on a construction project can be stressful. Most experts will tell you to get estimates from more than one professional to get the most competitive pricing. Additionally, Today suggests that you:

• Do your research, check references and read reviews
• Verify the contractor’s insurance and license
• Get everything in writing, including how you’ll handle costs that exceed the estimate
• Give yourself an emergency fund of about 20 percent more than anticipated expenses to provide a buffer for unexpected costs

Types of Construction Projects in the Philippines

What are the types of construction projects in the Philippines?

• Residential construction
• Commercial and office buildings
• Infrastructure and public works
• Industrial and manufacturing facilities
• Institutional and educational buildings

The construction industry in the Philippines plays a vital role in the country’s economic development and infrastructure growth. As a dynamic and rapidly expanding sector, it is crucial to explore and understand the different types of construction projects in the Philippines.

This article aims to shed light on the diverse landscape of construction in the Philippines, highlighting the importance of discussing and examining various project types. By delving into residential, commercial, infrastructure, industrial, institutional, and green construction, we can gain insights into the industry’s scope, impact, and future prospects.

Understanding these different construction sectors is essential for stakeholders, professionals, and individuals involved in the construction landscape of the Philippines.

Residential Construction

Residential construction projects in the Philippines encompass a wide range of housing developments, from individual houses to multi-unit dwellings. These projects cater to diverse budgets and lifestyles, offering affordable housing initiatives as well as high-end luxury residences.

Examples of residential construction projects include the construction of single-family homes, townhouses, condominiums, and apartment buildings. The demand for residential construction is driven by factors such as population growth, urbanization, and the expanding middle class.

By providing a range of housing options and budgets, residential construction projects contribute to addressing the housing needs of Filipinos across different socioeconomic backgrounds.

Commercial and Office Buildings

Commercial and office building projects in the Philippines encompass a diverse range of structures that support business activities and provide spaces for commercial operations. These projects include shopping malls, retail centers, office complexes, hotels, and mixed-use developments.

The construction of high-rise office buildings and commercial spaces has surged, particularly in urban areas like Metro Manila, to cater to the needs of both local and international businesses. The growth of the Business Process Outsourcing (BPO) industry has played a significant role in driving the construction of dedicated office spaces and call centers.

This sector’s expansion has created a demand for modern, efficient, and technologically advanced office buildings to accommodate the growing workforce and support the country’s economic growth.

Infrastructure and Public Works

These projects encompass a wide range of construction endeavors aimed at improving connectivity, transportation, and public services across the archipelago. Examples of infrastructure projects include the construction of roads, bridges, highways, railways, airports, seaports, and public utilities.

The Philippine government has placed a significant emphasis on infrastructure development, recognizing its importance in stimulating economic growth, attracting investments, and enhancing the quality of life for its citizens.

By investing in infrastructure projects, the government aims to improve transportation efficiency, promote regional development, and provide better access to essential services, such as healthcare and education, thereby fostering social and economic progress.

Industrial and Manufacturing Facilities

Industrial construction projects are characterized by their specialized requirements and considerations, such as the need for advanced infrastructure, compliance with safety and environmental regulations, and integration of specialized equipment and systems. These projects encompass the construction of manufacturing plants, factories, warehouses, power plants, and other industrial facilities.

The industrial sector contributes significantly to the country’s economy, providing employment opportunities and fostering innovation and technological advancements. Given the unique demands of industrial construction , careful planning, coordination, and expertise are essential to ensure the successful completion of these projects and to meet the specific needs of industries operating in the Philippines.

Institutional and Educational Buildings

Institutional construction projects in the Philippines encompass the development of public and community-oriented facilities such as schools, hospitals, government buildings, religious structures, and cultural centers.

These projects are essential for providing vital public services, promoting education and healthcare, and fostering a sense of community. Institutional construction adheres to specific regulations and standards to ensure the safety, accessibility, and functionality of these facilities. It requires careful consideration of factors such as zoning requirements, building codes, and the unique needs of the intended users.

The successful completion of institutional construction projects contributes to the overall well-being of society by creating spaces that facilitate learning, healing, governance, and cultural enrichment.

Why Use Steel for These Construction Projects?

Steel is a highly preferred material for construction projects in the Philippines due to its numerous advantages. It offers exceptional strength and durability, making it well-suited to withstand the country’s challenging environmental conditions, including typhoons and earthquakes.

Steel construction also allows for faster and more efficient project completion by enabling off-site fabrication and modular construction techniques. On top of that its versatility and flexibility make it suitable for a wide range of construction applications, from structural framing to architectural features. Its widespread use in construction projects in the Philippines is driven by these inherent benefits.

Key Takeaway

Understanding the different types of construction projects in the Philippines is crucial for stakeholders, professionals, and individuals involved in the industry. By understanding these, we can better navigate the construction landscape and contribute to the country’s development and progress.

Whether it be the Manila Hotel, the country’s first five-star hotel; the San Juanico Bridge, one of the country’s longest steel bridges; or the Cultural Centre of the Philippines, a popular venue for national and international exhibits and performances, the Philippines has a number of iconic buildings that have been built over the years.  

Today, a huge number of projects are underway in the infrastructure, residential, office and retail sectors. Looking to the National Capital Region of the Philippines, otherwise known as Metropolitan Manila, residential projects appear to be one of the most popular types of construction, with over 600 active projects in the area, a number of which are high-rise condominiums. Other areas of interest include Metro Manila’s infrastructure and transport projects, for example, the Metro Manila Subway Project ( PID 64698004 ) which will be operational towards 2028.

Residential Construction in Quezon City

There are currently over 2,700 residential projects underway in the Philippines , a large number of these being apartments, townhouses and condominiums. Demand for housing near CBDs and educational centres is picking up again, especially now that COVID restrictions have eased and, consequently, businesses have begun reopening.  

Quezon City, or the ‘City of Stars’, is the most populated city in Metro Manila; there are plenty of residential project leads to be found. The top three residential Quezon City construction projects, ranked by their total value include:  

The Orabella ( PID 101758004 ): The Orabella, a 45-storey residential development featuring 976 condos, promotes a sense of exclusivity and comfortable living in one tower. Developed and built by DMCI Project Developers, this project is expected to finish construction in August 2023.   

The Signature Skyway ( PID 42938004 ): Plans are in progress for The Signature Skyway, a 38-storey condominium building designed by ASYA. With a variety of indoor and outdoor amenities, this project is valued at an estimated 693.47m PHP.  

My Enso Lofts ( PID 109798004 ): Construction has commenced on My Enso Lofts, a 53-storey residential building featuring over 1,000 condominiums. Developed by PH1 World Developers and built by Megawide Construction Corporation, the project is expected to be completed in Q3 2025.  

DMCI Project Developers and Megawide are not just two of the top construction companies in Quezon City, but they rank in the top three builders in the Philippines for residential projects by total value of those projects. Also included in the top three is Archipelago Builders.   

Major Construction Projects in Cebu

Cebu is the largest island in the Visayas region; ‘The Queen of the South’ contains six major cities, one of which, Cebu City, is the second largest city in the Philippines with a lively commercial and industrial hub. Cebu and Manila are often compared to one another, with plenty of real estate opportunities to be found in both locations. The greatest value of work in Cebu can be attributed to projects in the infrastructure sector, closely followed by the residential sector. Similarly, when looking at the total value of projects in Manila, the residential sector comes in second on the list while the office sector holds the greatest total value of projects.   

As Metro Cebu’s population grows, so does the traffic congestion. Addressing the existing and future traffic demand is the Metro Cebu Expressway ( PID 92328004 ), a 73.8km highway that stretches across the entire metro area and into neighbouring cities.   

Another major Cebu construction project is a six-storey mixed-use complex developed by SM Prime Holdings ( PID 76390004 ). Featuring a convention centre, arena, food outlets, shops and more, the project is valued at an estimated 72 billion PHP. In Lapu-Lapu City, plans are underway for the construction of a new Cebu-Mactan Bridge ( PID 99408004 ). This project will include a bridge and coastal road, spanning 3.3km and 4.9km respectively and is expected to commence construction in early 2023.  

Infrastructure Advancement in the Philippines

Strong governmental support, increased funding and investment has seen the Philippine construction industry make leaps and bounds in its recovery from COVID shutdowns. Key construction sectors, by the total number of projects in each sector, include residential, infrastructure, retail, office and utilities. However, looking at the most popular construction type by project value, the utilities sector comes out on top.  

In terms of infrastructure, the top construction project, ranked by project value, is the Cebu-Mactan Bridge in Lapu-Lapu City ( PID 99408004 ). Other noteworthy projects include:  

South Commuter Railway Project ( PID 110825004 ): Offering quick, affordable and sustainable transport in the Philippines, the South Commuter Railway Project will link Metro Manila with Laguna province. The Asian Development Bank is financing civil works for the stations, bridges, tunnels and depot buildings associated with this railway.  

Cavite-Tagaytay-Batangas Expressway (CTBEX) ( PID 98910004 ): This project, currently in the Concept stage of development, will see the construction of a two-by-two lane carriageway with a total length of approximately 50km. It aims to provide a free-flowing link between Metro Manila, Cavite and Batangas.
