When it comes to cost of labour then there are several different options. If you are going to construct your house all by yourself then you need to find hardworking and honest labours first and your first choice should be those labours that you already know off. But if you hire contractors for construction of your house then they will work in such a manner that they bring their own labour force and as they have a deadline to meet so they get maximum output out of their labours and such a deal will suit both the contractor and the hiring party as if you hire your own labour then they try to prolong the work in order to make more money.

In 2021 the cost of labour in various major cities of Pakistan is 7,70,250, this price may vary from city to city and should be considered as general cost of labour and cost of labour for tiles installation, woodworking and plumbing is not included in this cost.
