Honest scope — what we do, what we don't

What we are: Architects + Interior Designers offering full residential design-build services. We handle architecture plans, CMDA approval, civil construction supervision, interior design, and finishing — all under one contract for our design clients.

What we are not: A heavy-civil / infrastructure contractor. We don't do roads, bridges, large commercial buildings (50,000+ sqft), or government infrastructure. Our sweet spot is residential — villas, independent houses, apartment renovation, premium full-home builds.

Why design-led construction works better

One contract, one warranty, one team. The traditional Chennai construction flow uses 3 separate vendors: an architect for plans, a civil contractor for the build, and an interior designer for finishing. Three contracts. Three quotes. Three timelines. And when something goes wrong, three sets of finger-pointing. Design-led construction folds all three into one — same firm, same warranty card, single accountability.

The plans are realistic, not theoretical. When the architect knows the construction team's actual capability (and vice versa), the drawings match reality. Most construction defects happen because the architect drew something the contractor couldn't build economically — so they did it differently on-site and didn't tell anyone. Single-team construction eliminates this.

Cost control through transparent BOQ. Most independent construction quotes are square-foot-based (₹1,800/sqft etc.). Our construction quotes are itemised — every cement bag, every TMT bar batch, every brick load, every door frame priced separately. You can verify each line against market rates, change finish grades without renegotiating the whole quote, and never get surprised by mid-project additions.

Timeline you can plan around. A typical 1,800 sqft G+1 house build takes 9-14 months end-to-end. Our contract includes a target completion date with weekly milestone reporting. Delays beyond reasonable buffer trigger a penalty. Most independent Chennai contractors give no written timeline — and the project runs 50-80% over.

Should I look at "Top 10 construction companies in Chennai" lists?
Those lists are useful for finding heavy-civil contractors for large commercial or infrastructure projects. For residential — villas, houses, renovations — a design-led firm like Homeli is typically a better fit because architecture + construction + interior + warranty all sit with one team. The "Top 10" lists rarely capture this distinction.

Yes — we offer plans + CMDA approval as a standalone service for ₹65,000-1.85 L. Includes architecture drawings, structural drawings, electrical/plumbing layouts, all stamped by a registered architect, plus full submission package and follow-up with CMDA officials. Approval typically 8-14 weeks. See our architectural plans page.

We don't lend directly, but we have tie-ups with HDFC, ICICI, SBI and Bajaj Finserv for construction loans on independent house and villa projects. Loan approval typically within 2-4 weeks; we handle the documentation. For smaller renovation work (₹3 L+), 0% interest EMI for 6 months available.
