What Does It Cost to Build a House in The Gambia?
There is no honest single rate per square metre for building in The Gambia — the same floor area can vary substantially with the site and specification. Here is what actually drives the number.

What clients ask before work starts.
What does Shreeji Development Enterprise do?
We are a construction and development company in The Gambia with five divisions: building construction, land sales, borehole drilling, laterite stone supply and concrete block manufacturing. Because materials and water come from our own operations, our construction projects depend less on third-party supply than most.
How long have you been operating?
We have been building in The Gambia since 2010 — over 15 years — and have completed more than 40 projects across residential, commercial and hospitality work.
How do I get a quotation?
Call, email or send an enquiry through the site with the location, what you want to build or supply, and roughly when you want to start. For construction we then visit the site before quoting, because ground conditions, access and drainage all affect the price and none of them can be judged from a description.
How are payments structured?
Against completed stages, not against calendar dates. A typical schedule releases funds at foundation, ring beam, roof, and finishing milestones, with photographic evidence of the completed stage before each release. This protects you far more than a date-based schedule, which pays out whether or not the work happened.
Do you work on projects for clients living abroad?
Regularly. A significant share of our residential work is for Gambians in the diaspora. Written scope, stage-based payments and dated photographic evidence are what make it work, and we also encourage clients to appoint someone locally who can visit the site independently of us.
How does the rainy season affect my project?
The rains run roughly June to October and they affect earthworks, foundations, concrete curing and external finishing. We sequence programmes so weather-sensitive work falls in the dry months where the start date allows, and we build the wet months into the programme rather than pretending they will not happen.
Tell us what you want to build
Send us the location and what you have in mind. For construction we visit the site before quoting, because that is the only way to give you a price that holds.
Monday to Saturday, 8:00 – 18:00. We use your details only to answer your enquiry.
