Notes & assumptions
- Default internal dimensions match SBM-G + Swachh Vidyalaya layout: 1 m² floor per WC + 0.5 m circulation. For more spacious cubicles or wheelchair-accessible toilets, override dimensions manually.
- Wash basins quantity = ceil(n_seats / 4) — one basin per 4 seats per CPWD school sanitation standard. Toggle off for very basic SBM-G individual household toilets.
- Sewer pipe quantity = 3 m × n_seats — covers WC connection + branch + main runs from the toilet block to the septic tank inspection chamber. Use [Septic Tank](/boq/septic-tank) template downstream.
- Roof slab is 125 mm RCC with 8 mm bars @ 150 mm c/c — adequate for spans up to 2.5 m. For larger spans, increase to 150 mm + 110 kg/m³ steel.
- Excludes: doors (typically FRP / steel-louvred ~₹4,000 each), windows / ventilators (₹2,000-3,000 each), tile flooring with skirting (₹600-900/m² installed), partition walls between WC cubicles (~₹3,000 per cubicle), water tank on roof (PVC 500 litre ~₹4,000), electrical wiring + light fitting (~₹1,500 per cubicle), septic tank + soak pit downstream — quote those separately.
**Toilet blocks** are the universal sanitation infrastructure in India — every village under SBM-G, every government school under Swachh Vidyalaya, every PHC + Anganwadi under ICDS, every PMGSY road sees a public toilet block. The CPWD / SBM-G standard is a brick-masonry shell with RCC roof slab, internal cement plaster + distemper, exterior weatherproof paint, vitreous-china Orissa-pattern WC pans, wash basins (1 per 4 seats), and sewer pipes connected to an external septic tank + soak pit. This BOQ Builder generates the complete shell + fittings cost per CPWD DSR 2023 for 1/2/4/6/8-seat configurations.
Why a toilet block isn't just a small building — it's a *system*
A working toilet block needs FOUR components: (1) the **shell** (this BOQ — masonry + roof + plaster + paint + floor + fittings); (2) **water supply** (overhead tank + plumbing + taps); (3) **drainage** (sewer pipes + inspection chamber + septic tank + soak pit); (4) **electrical** (lighting + ventilation fan). This Builder covers the shell + WC pans + wash basins + sewer connection-pipes — typically 60-70% of total cost. The other 30-40% (water supply, drainage downstream, electrical) is quoted separately by respective trades. Most SBM-G individual household toilet tenders are for the shell only; community toilet blocks tender all four components together as a single package.
Common gotchas in toilet-block estimates
Five items routinely under-budgeted: (1) **Doors** — FRP / steel-louvred doors are ₹3,500-5,500 each installed; with 2 doors per cubicle (entrance + WC), a 4-seat block needs 8 doors = ₹35-45k. (2) **Tile flooring** — anti-skid ceramic tiles + skirting tiles cost ₹600-900/m² installed; cheaper than IPS but mandatory for SBM-G + Swachh Vidyalaya. (3) **Partition walls** between WC cubicles — half-brick partition (DSR 6.12.2 at ₹905/m²) costs ₹3,000-4,500 per cubicle in materials. (4) **Water supply** — even a basic 500-litre PVC tank with plumbing costs ₹8,000-12,000 per block. (5) **Septic tank + soak pit downstream** — almost universally needed in non-sewered locations; add ~₹40-80k for a 10-user septic + soak pit combo.
Frequently asked questions
Using CPWD DSR 2023 for the shell + 2 WC pans + 1 wash basin + sewer pipes: approximately ₹1.2-1.5 lakh. Adding doors (4 nos × ₹4,500 ≈ ₹18k), tile flooring (~₹3k for 4 m²), partition wall (~₹3,500), water supply (~₹10k), septic tank + soak pit downstream (~₹60k): full operational toilet block ≈ ₹2.6-3.0 lakh. SBM-G community toilet incentive is ₹2.1 lakh per block (12-seat); per-seat is ~₹17,500. For schools, Swachh Vidyalaya allocation is around ₹35,000-50,000 per cubicle.
