I recently got around 681,000 Naira to fence 120ft by 120ft land. I knew then that it shouldn't be that high. The 681,000 Naira was only for workmanship and supervision. Materials are to be procured separately by me. Materials estimate was around 1.3M Naira.

N.B

I went to check my records, it was actually 688,000 Naira for workmanship and supervision. Cost for materials stand at 1.3M+.

That is outrageous. I try to arm myself with information regarding labour for my project. I have provided some rule of thumbs that I normally use:

Mason charge for block laying - Normally should be between N35K - 45K per 1000 blocks
Mason charge for casting - Averagely N3K per m3 of concrete (You need to know the length, width and thickness (depth) of your slab)
iron bender - 15K - 20K per Ton of reinforcement depending on how many Tons and location of work (height )
For carpenter - I go with daily rate of 3-4K per day (Starting point of negotiation is "how many days will it take you to finish the work"wink

Materials: Buy your materials yourself, very very important and look around for honest suppliers.

The total cost of my fence should not be more than 1.3M give or take with the gates and grills.


NOTE: Mind you the cost i posted earlier does not include plastering of the fence o and other things like electrical work e.t.c.

That is on a high side. I didnt add the cost of blocks to mine because the blocks were already made since last year. But even with the cost of blocks, the total cost won't near the cost you posted for your fence. I am not sure though if your workers are more experienced and better than mine though but no matter what i believe the cost disparity should not be that much.

I knew mine was a lot higher than I anticipated. My budget for fence and gate was 1.3M Naira but I was willing to go up to 1.5M. It was on the way to 2.4M Naira if gate was included.

Hey guy I took the comment above back. Your land is much more bigger than mine. The total area of my land is 767sqm and your is 1338sqm. Your is more bigger than mine with about 571sqm. May be that is why you are spending much more on materials and labour (I think).
