Warehouse with prefabricated steel structure

US$80–150/m²

2025Lámina KR18

A roofing sheet supplier (Lámina KR18) estimates for 2025: prefabricated steel structure US$80–150/m², reinforced concrete US$200–350/m² and hybrid US$130–250/m². A sector blog (Living in Guatemala) puts the general construction range at Q3,000–5,500/m², with industrial projects up to ~Q9,000/m². Espacio Chapín attributes to the Guatemalan Construction Chamber (CGC) a cost structure per m² of ~45% materials, 35% labor and 20% overhead and profit. The CGC, founded in 1971, publishes periodic reports on material and labor costs, but its site exposes no downloadable public series; it has to be requested. The only official reference is INE's IPMC.
