Residential Construction Services
Residential construction activities include a wide range of tasks involved in the building, renovation, or remodeling of homes and residential buildings. We at Asianet Groups follow a systematic & step by step approach to construction like below:
Pre-Construction Activities

- Site Preparation: This includes clearing the land, grading, and excavation. Any necessary demolition of existing structures is done here.
Foundation Work
- Excavation and Earthwork: Digging the foundation trenches and preparing the ground for the foundation.
- Foundation Construction: Pouring concrete for the slab, crawlspace, or basement. Includes reinforcing steel bars (rebar) and setting up formwork for pouring concrete.
