When you are ready get 3 quotes and you will start to see who is who.

True talk. I got 4 quotes for my roofing recently. The quotations were different. I just had to settle for one of them.

Is there any disadvantage or implications in using the standard size door for toilet instead of the normal toilet size door? Thank you


There is disadvantages btw the two.

*if you are using foreign pvc imported door for the toilet you cant get it in standard room door size, it's only available in 750mm.

*there is a little diff in price of locally made wooden doors too btw the two sizes.

*the size of your toilet is another thing to put into consideration.

Not necessary
But if it is a large one like a hospital or school with long span, there is need to include pillars
Whats is required are what we call expansion gaps not neccessarily pillars.

@ oga at top is it necessary to put pillar to a bungalow building on a solid ground ?
This is dependedn upon your house design.
some design have free standing colomns here you have pillars.
other conditions are if you have Heavy elements at the top or in the roof of the building the its becomes neccessary. For instanve you have a water tank placed inside the roof or you are using Concrete fascis in some cased parapet walls.
Finally when you bungalow has large or span open spaces you neet to introduce colomns.

Rubbiish:

It is necessary but not a must?
Your statement is contradictory sir


I simply mean that, Columns are important in a bungalow construction if there are need for it. Eg :

1 parapet
2. Suspended slab
3. Stairs for sit out
4. Capacity of the building
5. Wet, swampy or water logged land
6. Building on stratum
7. Continuation of a long abandoned project.
8. Pent house
9. etc.
If not bungalow can be constructed without Columns. Thanks.

Morning greetings people

You get the number of tiles you need for your building by measuring each space(rooms,sitting room,dining,)with tape and getting the sqm of all floor and wall of the spaces .

Measure the length and width of floor and height of kitchen and bathroom walls

I deal on tiles so chat me up on 08157000908 for more clarifications .

Please nairalanders I need an urgent help from you guys, I’m constructing a 5 bedroom flat all en-suite with an ante room and I am at the roofing stage but my problem is that my carpenter just told me that the roof area I’d 1108 square meters after I told him to measure it in preparation for roofing. I am not convinced because I have had the opportunity to look at other house here in nairaland are almost the size of mine yet they say their roof area is 400 and something square meters. Please how do I know the real measurement?
..

If the site is in Lagos, I will volunteer to help you do the measurement , thank you.

The private message is not good on NL anymore.
May be you should post your questions here and others may also be able to help, unless it's very private. Thank you.

Hello House,
Please I am at a crossroad with respect to a decision on POP. The carpenter that roofed the building advised that 2*2 planks should be arranged on the roof beam and that was what we did. Now my POP man is saying that we should run jogging before we do the job. Is itcompulsory to run nogging before POP or which is better. Thanks
