The wire use is dependent on how many light and sockets you have . Do you have 2 or 4 sockets per room also do you have 2 or 4 light points in the bedrooms. The outside lights and fence lights are they a lot. All this come to play when assessing if wires is right or not. Water heater included, how many AC points.

Also try to include the price per roll.

Just to give you heads up he has not included all the wires cos I do not see 10mm copper or 16mm aluminium and he might use some reckling? Supply wire.

Quantity wise it appears much for an average 5 bed bungalow especially on the 4 and 6mm. If you are monitoring I would say buy half initially.

Madam, your knowledge on building matters has passed the normal level, you are a full Professor now. My respects.

Seriously longthroating this house. Everything on point from walls to cabinets to chandelier to interlocking stones. May God progress all our ministries in the coming year.

Oga spyder, care to give an estimate for the plastering and painting for this house (per sq ft if you have it)?

I'm also seriously considering your carpenter for my cabinets as I mentioned. Does he buy the wood or will I have to supply? I'm guessing it's plywood or some other preformed. Any cost estimates there you'd care to give? Like how much for the wardrobe in the masters suite, or how much to put together the kitchen cabinets?

I'm always surprised at how much finishing and furnishing a house costs. If they say, it costs 5M to reach lintel, mentally multiply by 3 or 4 to finish (20M)

Thanks so much for all your fantastic work and leadership. God continue to shine his light upon you! I pray we get a chance to work together. I'm based around Asaba

The plastering and painting will be calculated later, as work is ongoing.

For the cabinets, there are 4 large cabinets (floor to ceiling high x 10ft wide in most rooms) and 3 smaller units of (6ft high and 4 ft wide) plus kitchen units in two big kitchens (1 upper floor and 1 ground floor) . The total bill I paid for all the works, materials, workmanship, transportation, etc is N1,200,000.00 and he has almost completed his works. This excludes the kitchen marble counter top which comes at around N150,000.00 for the two kitchens, delivered but not fitted.

If you are planning on a cost efficient build you end up becoming like a hawk, observing and monitoring.

Oga spyder I really don't know how you do it several build over several states. May God continue to give you strength.

Oga Spyder
Ever wondered why you have such a huge following... Honesty pays..
I wish most people are like you sha.
May god continue to give you the strength...

What a lot of people dont understand is that, if I was the owner of this house and after delivering such an ediface, if spyder says he wants X amount, me i will put my hand in my pocket and give him oo. At the end of the day, he has earned it and not stolen it. This is what I wish our younger so called engineers on this forum could learn.

Ok


Thanks very much for your reply, have a nice xmax

My Oga, I am brushing up on my Yoruba lingo because I plan to hit Lagos for projects this coming year, my several Oga's at my former company were Yoruba men, very good men who taught me many Yoruba words, I am sure I hear the language largely because of that, even as I never lived in the west ever.

Its steel, and made by many different companies, this brand is the AMAC type and a little better than the others I found, it has a peep hole but I think its for external doors that they had in mind, I always place these doors so the peeping side will be inside the rooms, and we can block the hole with a little seal if not in use. I dont know much about American Panel doors, I know much about German, Israeli, Turkish and Chunese doors and their fittings, frames, architraves......

God bless you mavverick for the observations and advise. It's always Good to stand out from the corrupt crowd though it may not be easy o, but has a greater reward and continuity as advantage. Oga spyder keep it up

Please spyder880

Have you come across this door in the first pic below? If yes, how much it went for in China or Turkish quality. Its a wooding door with architrave frame.

The second pic is of china wooden doors with frame on display but i have not seen the frame to know if it has an architrave. Some one told me these doors go for 9k.

These are flush doors I believe. At 9k you need to watch the quality. Imported Italian ones cost b/w 40 to 45k while locally made ones with marine wood etc and of very good quality is also in same range.

The 9k ones are good to go for me depending on location of use.

My friend's house has these doors as internal doors. One has gone bad only because it is in constant contact with water as bathroom door. He uses shower so the bottom part of the door has peeled off. The lower frame wood also came out. Seem like they put the door together will only glue. Others look pretty solid.

However, his doors were bought at 9k without frame and frames were bought separate. I wont mind if these doors come with architrave frame. I will use it internally but use PVC doors in bathrooms. Externally, steel doors are better and turkey preferable/affordable.
