Hire vetted contractors direct, at their own rate, with no builder sitting in the middle taking a cut. Architectural design is built in at no cost, and if you want us to source material we do it at trade price with zero commission.

5-step vetting on every crew
Milestone escrow
Written contracts
0%

Builder markup

You pay the contractor's rate. Not the contractor's rate plus somebody's cut for making three phone calls.

₹0

Design cost

Plans, structure, interiors and a photoreal 3D come with the crew. No architect fee, no design retainer.

0%

Commission on material

If we source for you it goes at trade price, with brand authenticity guaranteed on every item.

Where your money goes

A builder's price has three
things hidden inside it.

You are handed one number. Inside it sit the contractor's rate, the material bill, and a markup that is never written down anywhere. We take the number apart and show you all three.

Going through a builder

One number, no breakdown.

Every contractor on ThekeYaar builds from Architake, the AI design engine we built ourselves. Give it your plot and a short brief and it produces the civil plan, the structural grid, the interior layout and a photoreal 3D of the finished home.

There is no architect to appoint, no design retainer and no consultant fee. On a project this size that is usually five to eight percent of the build value. Here it is part of hiring the crew.

Material, if you want it

Trade price, and it is
genuinely the brand.

Duplicate material is the quiet problem on Indian sites. Cement, wire, switches, fittings, tiles and paint get sold as brands they are not, and it does not show up until years later when something fails. Sourcing through us is optional, and when you do use it, three things are fixed.

Brand authenticity, guaranteed

Bought from authorised channels only, with the invoice and batch details passed to you. If an item is ever found not to be what it was sold as, we replace it and carry the cost.

Zero commission

We do not take a cut, a rebate or a kickback from any supplier. You pay the trade price we pay, and you see the actual bill.

Itemised, never bundled

Every item is listed with its rate and quantity, against the stage it belongs to. Material never disappears inside a lump sum labour figure.

Verified crews

Every profile is a record.

Past sites with dated photographs, documented experience, crew strength, rate card and payment history. The things you would ask for if you knew to ask.

How it works

Four steps, and a paper trail.

01

Post the job

Trade, scope, drawings if you have them, location and timeline. Ten minutes, once.

02

Compare real quotes

Vetted crews price the same itemised scope. Rates, timelines, ratings and site history line up side by side.

03

Award the theka

Pick your crew and both sides sign. The contract is generated from the accepted quote.

04

Pay by milestone

Fund escrow once. Each stage is inspected, signed off and released, with a record of all of it.

Why it's safe to use

Trust, but write it down.

This market runs on personal recommendation because there has never been anything else to go on. ThekeYaar builds the something else.
