Rzian Homez · Design and build · Trivandrum
House construction in Trivandrum, drawn and built by one team.
Rzian Homez is a design and build firm. We draw your home and we build it, in-house, on the land you already own. One architect-led team, an itemised bill of quantities before you sign, and a 270-day programme written into the work agreement.
We build for plot owners, not apartment buyers.

Three things, written into the work agreement.
Any builder can say these. We write them into the agreement you sign, so you can hold us to them.
A 270-day programme
Construction runs to a 270-day programme from start of construction to handover. The programme is written into the work agreement, with a milestone schedule you can check against what is happening on site.
100% transparent BOQ
Every item is listed with quantity, rate and specification in a bill of quantities you receive before the work agreement is signed. Extra works outside it are quoted in writing before they are done, and the final cost is held within plus or minus five percent of the contracted value.
One accountable team
Architect, engineer and builder work under one roof and one contract. One project manager answers for the whole build, from the first drawing to the final coat of paint.
How a Rzian Homez home gets built.
Consultation
Your plot, budget and brief, on a call or on WhatsApp. No fee and no commitment on either side.
Design and BOQ
Architectural drawings, then a complete itemised bill of quantities. Every line is visible before you sign. If you want a first number before the drawings exist, the home cost calculator gives you one in a few minutes.
Construction
Site management by our own team, with weekly WhatsApp video updates from site, so you see progress without having to be there.
Handover
A final quality walkthrough with you, the full document set and the warranty terms in your hand, at the end of the 270-day programme.
What the work agreement contains.
A builder’s promises either exist in the contract or they do not. Ours has three parts you can read before you sign. The Contract and Warranty page sets each of them out in full.
The bill of quantities
Ten sections, from site preparation and foundation through superstructure, roofing and waterproofing, doors and windows, flooring, plumbing and sanitaryware, electrical and painting, to a final section that lists exclusions and client-supplied items one line each. Each section names its specification: cement and reinforcement grades and approved manufacturers as specified in the structural design and project BOQ, M-Sand or P-Sand, doors and flooring as specified in the BOQ, and Jaquar, Grohe or Kohler sanitaryware. Rates and quantities are specific to your project and are shared with you privately.
Nine payment stages
Payments follow the construction, not the calendar. There are nine stages from site visit to handover, and each is released after a milestone you can see on site: plinth beam, ground-floor slab, first-floor slab, plastering, tiling. The amount at each stage is in the payment schedule you receive with the BOQ.
Two warranties
Structural warranty 5 years from handover. Service warranty 1 year from handover. Manufacturer warranties on named products pass to you at handover with their documentation where applicable. Building permits and statutory approvals are the owner’s responsibility under the work agreement; we advise, and we can recommend liaison agents.
Everything about building in Trivandrum, in one set.
This page is the master sheet. The three sheets below go deeper: choosing a builder, how our architects work, and what the rules and the soil decide before you draw.
Selected work, by locality.
Rzian Homez has delivered 300+ homes across Kerala over 25+ years of practice. Five elevations from Trivandrum are below, by locality; the full set is on the projects page.
Questions, answered plainly.
How do I know the BOQ is not inflated?
Every item is listed with quantity, rate and specification, and we walk you through it line by line before you sign. Second opinions are welcome. If you already hold a quote from someone else, the free BOQ audit checks whether it leaves anything out.
What if the project gets delayed?
The 270-day programme is written into the work agreement. The agreement also sets out the circumstances that can affect the programme, including approved changes and other project-specific conditions. The signed agreement governs the final terms. The Contract and Warranty page shows how the agreement is structured.
Can I speak to people you have built for?
Yes. Ask us for references and, with their consent, we will put you in touch with owners of homes we have delivered. We would rather you heard it from them.
I am in the Gulf. How do I supervise the build?
You get weekly WhatsApp video updates from site and a single point of contact who answers for the whole project. The Building from abroad page explains how design sign-off, payments and site visits work when you are not in Kerala.
What does the fixed price include?
Full civil construction to the agreed BOQ: structure, roofing, plastering, flooring, electrical, plumbing and civil finishing, with sanitaryware from Jaquar, Grohe or Kohler. Interiors, landscaping, the compound wall and external works are quoted separately if you want them.
How is this different from hiring a contractor and an architect separately?
When you hire them separately, you manage the gap between them, and that gap is where most cost and quality problems begin. Rzian Homez is a design and build firm: design and construction sit with one team under one contract, so one entity is accountable for everything.
