Why Missions Choose Construct GH
Built to the Security Specification
We work to the mission’s security and technical specification at pre-construction — controlled access, perimeter works, and hardened elements per the brief — and build to it under documented quality assurance.
Tender-Ready, Cost-Certain
We deliver a tender-ready Bill of Quantities and programme up front, so the mission and its funding authority commit on a measured cost, with the documentation a diplomatic procurement requires.
Handled with Discretion
Diplomatic work is delivered under access controls, vetted subcontractors, and confidentiality discipline — information, site access, and reporting managed with the discretion a mission requires.
Built to Code, Backed in Writing
We build to the Ghana Building Code (GS 1207:2018) and the regulations (L.I. 1630), with registered professional input, and stand behind it with a written warranty and a defects-liability period.

What It Costs — Honestly
There is no honest per-square-metre rate for a diplomatic compound — a chancery, a residence, and a secure perimeter all price differently, and a mission’s security specification adds scope. The cost comes from a Bill of Quantities: a quantity surveyor measures and prices every element of the specific design and standard. We prepare a tender-ready BoQ so the mission and its funding authority see a real, line-by-line cost. (Material prices move — cement roughly GH₵85–130/bag, structural steel and rebar by the ton — which is exactly why a measured BoQ beats a guess.)
