What’s the cost per sqm—and what’s included/excluded?

Ever noticed how “₱___/sqm” sounds affordable… until the “hindi kasama” hits you like a truck?

Cost per sqm is only useful if you’re comparing the same scope. Most quotes differ because one includes essentials (waterproofing, ceilings, better fixtures, siteworks), while another hides them as future add-ons.

Solution (the only safe way to compare):

• Demand a Written Inclusions/Exclusions Matrix (line-by-line)

• Require a BOQ-style breakdown (structure, roofing, plumbing, electrical, finishes, siteworks)

• Standardize the finish tier (Basic / Standard / Premium) before quoting

• Identify “hidden-cost zones”: permits, excavation/hauling, drainage, waterproofing, septic, electrical upgrades, cabinets

If it’s not written, it’s not included. Period.
