The video below documents the transformation of a townhouse from foundation to completion. It only takes a few minutes to watch, but behind it lies a process that requires precise techniques at each step to ensure the building looks beautiful and minimizes potential problems.

Phase A — Preparation for Construction: “The clearer the plan, the fewer problems will arise.”
Suggestion: For townhouses, it's advisable to finalize the blueprints before starting construction, as mid-project changes in a confined space are often very costly
Phase B — Foundation Construction: the base of the entire house
