100 Mistakes of Construction: A Stage-Wise Guide to Avoid the Errors That Cost Homeowners Lakhs - Softcover
Synopsis
Every year, thousands of families spend their life's savings building a home — and years later, they're still paying for it. Not the EMI. The cracks. The seepage. The tile that popped up in the hall. The damp patch that keeps coming back no matter how many times it's repainted.
Almost none of these problems come from bad luck. They come from small mistakes made on site — mistakes that took two extra minutes to avoid, but now take two lakh rupees to repair.
100 Mistakes of Construction is a stage-wise, plain-language field guide covering every phase of building a home in India — from soil testing to the day you get the keys. For each mistake, you get:
The Mistake — what commonly goes wrong on site
Why It Happens — the shortcut or misunderstanding behind it
The Future Problem — what it turns into 2, 5, or 10 years later
The Fix — exactly what should be done instead
What's inside:
- 100 real construction mistakes, organised across all 12 stages of construction
- Written in plain language — no engineering degree required
- A 96-point printable Site Inspection Checklist, one for every stage
- Covers foundation, DPC & anti-termite treatment, RCC framework, concreting & curing, slab casting, brickwork, plumbing & electrical, waterproofing, tiling, painting & finishing, and handover
- Practical, field-tested points — proper vibration, mesh at every joint, injection grouting after deshuttering, potable water for mixing/curing, rainwater harvesting, termite treatment, and more
- A 30-Day Post-Handover Challenge to catch anything that slipped through
- A one-page Quick-Reference framework table you can pin to your site cabin wall
Who this is for:
Homeowners building or renovating their own house, and site supervisors/junior engineers who want a practical, no-jargon reference to carry to site.
Written by:
Er. N.Mohan, B.Tech Civil, with 12+ years of field experience in execution, quality control, and technical services across residential and government sector projects, including cement, concrete, construction chemicals, and water supply projects.
