Question 8

How does AI for house construction planning work?

Accepted Answer

Our AI for house construction planning uses advanced artificial intelligence to generate custom floor plans from natural language descriptions. Simply describe your house (e.g., '3-bedroom house with 2 bathrooms'), and our AI design agent creates professional floor plans, estimates construction costs, and provides construction planning guidance. The AI considers Ghana Building Code compliance and regional construction standards.

Question 9

What is the AI floor plan generator?

Accepted Answer

The AI floor plan generator is an intelligent tool that creates custom 2D and 3D floor plans from simple text descriptions. Describe your house requirements in natural language, and the AI generates professional floor plans with proper room layouts, dimensions, and compliance with Ghana Building Code. You can then edit, customize, and export these AI-generated floor plans.

Question 10

Can I create 3D floor plans?

Accepted Answer

Yes! Ghana House Planner includes a 3D floor plan designer that creates stunning 3D visualizations of your floor plans. Generate 3D floor plans from AI descriptions or create them manually. View your house design in 3D with wall textures, furniture placement, and realistic lighting. Export 3D floor plans for presentations and construction planning.

Question 11

Is it safe to pay suppliers through Ghana House Planner's CornerStore marketplace? Does it use escrow?

Accepted Answer

Yes. CornerStore, Ghana House Planner's material and supplier marketplace, holds a buyer's payment in escrow once paid and does not release it to the supplier until the buyer confirms delivery. If something goes wrong, buyers can open a dispute before confirming delivery, which freezes the payout while CornerStore reviews it and can issue a partial or full refund. This buyer protection is built into every marketplace order, not an optional add-on.

Question 12

Can I see supplier or vendor ratings and reviews before ordering materials?

Accepted Answer

Yes. After a completed order, buyers can leave a star rating and written review for the supplier, covering communication, delivery, quality, and value. Reviews are tied to a verified completed transaction (not open to anyone), and a supplier's average rating and review history are visible on their public profile before you order from them again.

Question 13

Does Ghana House Planner track live or real-time building material prices?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Ghana House Planner maintains a live material price index covering cement, iron rod, sand, blocks, and other core building materials, with region-specific pricing across all 16 regions of Ghana. Prices feed directly into the cost calculator, bill of materials, and tender-grade BOQ export, so estimates reflect current market rates rather than a static, out-of-date price list.

Question 14

Can I export a professional Bill of Quantities (BOQ) for tender or contractor bidding?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Starter and Professional plans include a tender-grade BOQ export, grouped by standard trade sections (Substructure, Superstructure, and others) with per-section subtotals and a Preliminaries section covering contingency, design fees, and permit costs — suitable for sharing with contractors during tender or bidding.

Question 15

How is Ghana House Planner different from a construction cost calculator or a materials marketplace alone?

Accepted Answer

Most alternatives cover one piece of the process — either cost estimation or a materials marketplace — as separate, disconnected tools. Ghana House Planner keeps floor plan design, Ghana Building Code compliance, cost estimation, bill of materials, supplier procurement, and construction supervision all in the same project context, so a change to the design updates the cost estimate and material list automatically, and procurement/supervision data stays linked to the same project instead of being re-entered in a separate tool.
