800k......?? Too costly......mine with the cost of bricks at that level is not up to 450k.....!!!

As in my post if read it, the bld is now at lintel level. If you have rough estimate of 2000 blocks @ 140, you have 280k alone on blocks. Let alone other cost 4rm foundation to labour, cement at least 50 bags, labour, sandr. I hope you captured your cost very well. If you check my signature you shall see I am scholar in construction cost. It is well.

johhnnie:


Please, list the too many unrelated items counted. and tell if security is not part of a complete building design. Like I said earlier, it's a question of perception, exposure, knowledge, taste and affordability. Every stated is related my brother. U can rank and edit based on purse. That's what either prune the cost down or up.

I'm not your errand boy so you don't get to assign tasks to me.

EgunMogaji:


I don't have to reread my post, I wrote it so I know.

A true professional architect would make suggestions such as informing a potential client of astute changed that will bring value to the house.

I'm not here for your consult because I don't need it.

A good client will consult properly. Are you a droughts man?

Just asking sha

He's a good potential client. He's not asking for detailed architectural drawing for a builder just an estimate based on the 3D.

No, I carry poun poun at job sites

Apologies to all the tenured Draughtmen in the house on his behalf.

His thinly veiled aloofness underlies his lack of customer service tact.

By the way, a hint.

No two projects are the same in cost even if they are on the same street. That mr A built a house with 1m in Gwarimpa does not mean Mr B will build the same plan in Ojo with 1m. Get informed you all.

13 to 15 million.

Kindly send me more pics and give me details, I'm down to learn from people who have already started building.
Pl_models@yahoo.com thanks...

Will give more details when I am able to fire up my laptop

seggzz:

He can spend 1.2m depending on the width and length of the rooms. Just 3500 blocks is enough for the whole building. Just give contract to one person who in turn pays his fellow workers. For omo onile boys you could settle them 200k and many other expenses involved. I built my two bedrooms flat with just 1m. For more advice you could pm me

Pls you can email me on pl_models@yahoo.com, awaiting your advise thanks.

Chukazu:
3m should finish that house man
am doing Four bedroom bungalow, we are the plastering stage, so far have spent about 2.5m.. even though I had a lot of waste and dubious contractors.

just make sure the work is properly supervised.

oga good evening.
I won't MInd if you give me analysis of your building spendings.

You mean 2 .5m took you to plastering level? Which kind of roofing did you used?

I feel you. It happens.

BTW I think I would need your advise on a building restructuring I intend embarking on. If you don't mind share with me ur email and I will send you the sketch plan to advise me on what can be put up on the land.

Eintelekt:


I wont do that. I'm an Architect myself and it pains me to see these things. It's against morality and professional standards and I just feel like it's devoid of needed justification.

They always say "if you think getting a professional is costly, try a quack". In this case, get a picture online and gather cheap labor to erect it.
These landlords are the ones spoiling architecture, engineering and our cityscape in this country.

The worst are those who are already giving contacts and cost. God help this country. Desperation everywhere.

Alright, thanks

waldigit:


I am presently working on this. we are at lintel now with 800k at the same move neighbourhood. The cost of yours is dependent on peculiar factors.

good evening.

Is that building a 3bedroom or 4?
How many blocks did u used to the lintel level?

Does your power provider presently supply you 24hours uninterrupted power supply?
Still be your local government till things improve in the whole sector our country.

sorry bros, was typing on the road then do pardon me if I sounded rude.
I also have vested interest in that your area but the info I have is not of partial light but full disconnection/ non connection of mowe/pakuro/orimerunmu/olowotedo axis. that is my concern. thanks

Rude ke, no way o. I am sorry if you interpreted my reply wrongly.
I was only stating the obvious.
Thank you.

Ganoderma:


Mowe, Ikorodu.

Do you have the land already? And how big do you want it to be?

From the looks this looks like a pretty chocked up house and a rather poorly done plan. Your garage is taking more space than your master bedroom.

Remove the garage and park your car outside. If there is space in the compound you can create a car port. Use that space to expand your living room and most importantly your master bedroom.

In a place like mowe or ikorodu assuming you already have a standard plot, this shouldn't cost you more that 13 million. I'm considering the fact that you are doing a proper raft foundation as those areas tend to be pretty prone to water attacks and flooding. Mowe is located close to a natural flood plain. I dont need to preach to you about ikorodu.

you people are calling millions as if the op wants to build white house.

13 million will build him a standard duplex sir.

We are talking about 3 bedroom flat here even with raft foundation.

waste of space and unreasonable design
look closely, don't ask me why

baba can u give us a break down how u spent 450k on your block work of 2 bedroom flat

I am here to learn

Rotentina:

Employ a competent Quantity Surveyor bro. Professional cost advice guaranteed.

johhnnie:




Lest I forget, all rooms with heating systems. So, the guy that quoted 15-20m is not out of place.

oga
No doubt.

But as the op is here for suggestions and opinion, we should know is a low budget house cos if has much, he won't seek for opinion.

Some ppl mentioning millions don't have building experience.. .

People with building experience should share us their experience so that the op can know what to expect.

Do you know your 20m building can't be once? You can park in when its in plastering level and by God's grace, u will be giving it finishing to your taste.

iamlarry99:
To get the building to roofing level

Theres the need to re-adjust this plan to a modern day design but in all between 4-5 will be just right.

VickyRotex:
I think 6 to 8 million, depending on the quality of things you chose to use.

There is nothing like things in building terminology!, its material. (depending on the quality of materials) thanks.

brokensword:

Budget 15m if it's at ikorodu and 12m at mowe

VickyRotex:

Thanks for pointing that out. I appreciate!

Thank you sir, this people dey make me fear o!i am closing to finishing my same 3BRM with even a lil less than 3mill here in the town.wetin na??this is d era of change, the block wok wont even consume up to 500k na abi no be so??Bro pls start wit ur small amount even if na 700k u get for hand, it should complete ur block work apart from foundation may be may be Not

yemmit90:


Be realistic please. maximum he can spend on blocks work plus workmanship is 500k.

@op, use your 3m very well, i'm sure you may not need up to a million if the money is not enough.

Nawa o, some people just dey call millions anyhow. Well, experience they say is a best teacher.
