This complete 1-99 osrs construction guide contains every method you can use to get 99 as fast as possible.
Construction is a buyable skill. This means that in order to advance in construction, you need to put in money. You should not consider getting 99 construction if you don’t at least have 150m to throw away.
Why you should train construction

Useful rooms to have in your P-O-H
| Construction level | Room | Functionality |
|---|---|---|
| 45 | Chapel | Gilded altar (75 construction required) can give you 350% prayer experience when both burners are lit. |
| 50 | Portal Chamber | If you have the required magic level for the teleport you can add portals to different locations. |
| 65 | Superior Garden | Fairy ring/spirit tree teleportation, of course you need to have completed the required quests Pools can restore stats depending on their level (Special attack, Run energy, prayer, stat restore, hitpoints, anti-poison) |
| 72 | Portal Nexus | Up to 30 teleports available at 92 construction Xeric talisman/digsite pendant teleport |
| 80 | Achievement gallery | Spellbook-switching altars (90 construction for all three) Jewellery box (ring of dueling, games necklace, combat bracelet, skills necklace, glory, ring of wealth) |
Banking & butlers
From levels 1 – 40 you’ll want to stick to the base location of Rimmington. This is because next to the portal, in the general store an NPC named Phials can un-note your items for you. You should bring cash as he charges 5 coins per un-noted item.
After level 40 you’ll gain access to the regular butler which will go to the bank for you.
Butlers
Butlers are essential for the fast experience rates I will be summing up below. These can run to the bank to get your planks for you. Butlers can be hired in Ardougne. They need a place to sleep so you will need to have two bedrooms in your house.
Regular Butler
- 12 seconds to bank
- 20 items per trip
- 5K every 8 trips
Demon Butler
- 7.2 seconds to bank
- 26 items per trip
- 10k every 8 trips
One of the most annoying things about every other osrs construction guide you’ll find is that the pricing is never accurate. Youtubers simply plug the data into a calculator and that’s the price they use. This is not accurate as they are not calculating the extra cost of the butler that comes in. A butler speeds up your exp rates tremendously, especially a demon butler but for some methods it will cost you over 30M gp more to use one.
OSRS Construction Guide – The Cheap way
The cheapest way to 99 construction will cost you around 130-160M to get from level 1 – 99. The price depending on the butler (regular or demon) and the method used.
I will include a beginner EXP rate and a click-perfect EXP rate for every method.

1 – 99 construction guide – The fastest way
The absolute fastest way to 99 construction requires you to have a demon butler and near-perfect clicks. This method will also cost you almost double what you would pay for the cheapest way.
52 – 99 mahogany tables
Room: Kitchen
| Levels | Furniture | Amount | Materials | EXP Rate | Time |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 77 – 99 | Gnome bench | 13,761 | 82,566 | 600K – 900k/h |
cost: 206M + 10M demon butler
99 in under 20 hours
Alternative: 77 – 99 gnome benches
For this method to work out, you need a demon butler and you need to have perfect clicks. This method only works if you don’t leave room for mistakes. You’ll need a superior garden in your house and you need to make two tables at the same time. If your clicks are perfect you’ll be done building every time your butler comes back.
Room: Superior Garden
| Levels | Furniture | Amount | Materials | EXP Rate | Time |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 77 – 99 | Gnome bench | 20,641 | 123,846 | 900K – 1.1M/h | 10,5h |
cost: 277M + 6.5M demon butler
99 in under 15 hours
Hopefully, this 1-99 osrs construction guide was useful. Since plank prices will keep changing, you can use the construction calculator to calculate these. Though the total price will always be within 10-20m of the prices listed here. Good luck!
