Greetings to everyone, pls does anyone know the cost to install doors. I just bought 8 doors (1 front door and 7 inner doors) i have bought the keys and hinges as well. But the installation price seems to be on the high side. 20k to install 1 front door and 15k each to install the 7 inner doors.

Pls is this normal price to install doors?


Very abnormal price!

Let us break it down, what is the Carpenter supposed to do:
- Nail all hinges to the doors
- Install the Door frames on the walls of the door entrance (Small Cement work to smoothen edges here)
- Nail Hinged doors to the frames
- Install the Keys

Maximum price you should pay anyone, even a cheat of a carpenter, is 50K to 60K, to install all eight doors!
I understand this is just LABOUR COST, right?

Certain informations will be required to attempt this question for functionality and optimization reasons, ranging from location, proximity, ROI (return on investment), prospects and government polices (town planning), etc...

In a densely populated neighborhood, 137.8sqm is a lot of space, its about been minimal in approach and maximizing its immediate potential.

Numbers of parking space required is dependent on the type of structure proposed. Eg. A store or mall required parking space is 3 per 100sqm of building area. (Architect's data)..

For maintainability it could be cumbersome which is limited to the degree and nature of the work to be done.
As regards "fast self deterioration" of the building, I disagree. In order to do such, those responsible should do the design of the structure in order to carry all loads.



When I say self-deterioration, I do not mean structural failure (there's nothing like structural deterioration). I simply mean physical deterioration of building (a technical jargon in building maintenance) which is common to such types of designs.
This can be well prevented by constant reconstruction of the felt (which is quite expensive and unnecessary) but best prevented by avoiding such overhead tank designs.

Hello Senior Engineers on the house.

Whixh is cheaper to do decking or roofing for a 2 flat 3 bedroom all ensuite building.

The plan is to do 4 flat though but funds is doing ojoro right now?

We are still in the planning and discussions phase.

Your input would be highly appreciated

In terms of cost, A stone coated tile roof is approximately same cost as a deck.

An aluminium roof is cheaper than a deck.

In terms of maintenance, its better to do a roof because a deck exposed to the elements may leak over time. Most countries where a deck slab is used as roof are areas with very low precipitation.

Hello my great Engineers in the house, please I will like to be enlightened on the construction of a water tank stand over a septic tank. My engineer advised I build my tank stand on the septic / soak away tank we are about to construct. He said we will only need 4pcs of 16mm to reinforce the water tank stand pillar from inside the ground to the top(where d water tank will be placed). And 12mm rods will be used for other things like underground pillars, first chaining, second chaining and the slab.
Please is this best way to go about it?
God bless you as you drop your comments / advices.

you need to provide some certain information which is not given here..

is your supposed engr a structural engineer or he just said that on assumptions

what is the geotechnical condition of the soil

what size of tank are you looking at

the depth of septic tank and width
the tank structures it self will it be constructed using steel or reinforced concrete ..

I asked all this because he needs to be extra careful when he's designing the required footings/base for this column which the sewer must not seep backwards to it and cause deterioration of reinforcement ..

He needs to use a separate concrete grade below the ground level also. just tell him to design it to b sure it might not be Y16 as proposed.. my take

Though it's very difficult to understand the picture you are painting, yet I foresee a dangerous unprofessional practice there. Notwithstanding, to help us have an objective assessment of the situation, can you paste the designs showing the septic tank and the water tank?
