Site Preparation: Setting the Stage
Every casita journey begins with the land. In Arizona, our unique desert terrain demands expertise in site preparation and excavation. Our team is equipped to handle the challenges, whether it’s caliche-laden soil or uneven land. Costs here can vary, but we provide transparent estimates to avoid surprises.
Foundation: A Solid Start
The foundation is crucial, and at Maricopa Casitas, we ensure it’s done right. Costs will vary based on the size of your casita and the specific requirements of your site. We’ll help you understand the importance of concrete PSI ratings and how they translate into long-term savings. Concrete costs can range from $100 to $150 per cubic yard, with the strength of the concrete, measured in PSI, impacting the cost.
Materials: Quality Meets Affordability
Whether you’re looking for luxury finishes or durable, cost-effective options, we source materials that offer the best balance of quality and value. Our relationships with suppliers mean we can provide competitive pricing on everything from framing to fixtures.
Permitting in Maricopa County: Navigating the Process
Permitting can be a complex landscape, but we’re seasoned guides. We’ll walk you through Maricopa County’s requirements, ensuring your project complies with all regulations without unnecessary expense.
Utilities and Infrastructure: Connecting Comfort
Your casita needs to be connected to essential services, and we’re adept at managing these costs. From water to electricity, we aim to optimize the infrastructure setup for efficiency and cost-effectiveness.
Construction Costs: Crafting Value
On average, the construction costs for a casita in Arizona range between $100 to $300 per square foot, encompassing both construction and labor costs2. For instance, a 300 square foot unit can cost between $50,000 to $90,0003. However, these costs can vary based on design preferences, materials, and other factors.
Concrete Prices by PSI Rating
PSI ranges from 2,500 to 5,000 PSI and costs anywhere from $100 to $150 per cubic yard for a standard delivery and materials. Concrete comes in differing strengths, rated in Pounds Per Square Inch (PSI). A few things to note:
- Stronger (higher PSI) slabs are more expensive.
- Non-load bearing structures (patios, sidewalks, etc.): 2,500-3,000 PSI
- Load-bearing structures (foundations, structural piers, basements): 3,000-5,000 PSI
- The smaller the aggregate, the smoother the finish, the higher the price.
| PSI | Average Price Range |
|---|---|
| 3,000 | $100 – $120 |
| 3,500 | $110 – $125 |
| 4,000 | $115 – $130 |
| 4,500 | $125 – $135 |
| 5,000 | $130 – $150 |
