What is the approximate amount of time needed to erect a house?

The duration of steps to building a house depends on the complexity of designs, size, budget, approvals and weather conditions. It can take between 8 to 14 months on average between planning and completion of an ordinary house. It may take some weeks in planning and approvals with foundation and structural work commonly taking few months. The time spent on interior and finishing work is usually the longest because of the customization and the availability of the material. The contractors who are accustomed to work with commercial construction services are trained in the work with the timeline, coordination and resources planning, which can minimize unneeded delays. Adequate scheduling, on-time acquisition of materials and frequent supervision of the site are some of the major factors that assist in building a house within the anticipated time.
