Recrea Construction — Commercial Cost Calculator
A Recrea Construction project
How it works: built area × the 2026 rate for the building type, plus 3% per additional floor for structure and vertical circulation, plus surface parking, adjusted to the zone.

What Moves the Price

Building Type

Retail, plaza, offices or showroom each have a different structure and finish.

Floors

Extra floors add columns, stairs, lifts and fire protection.

Parking

Municipal rules set parking per m²; it is often a large share of the lot and budget.

Zone

Islands and premium coastal zones cost more than city avenues.

Power

Commercial loads often need a CFE load increase or transformer.

Facade & Signage

Visibility drives rent; facades and signage deserve budget.
