Sharp sand = 12k per trip

Cement = N2,500 from warehouse

6" solid block = N130

Block setting labour = N45 - N55 per block

The prices can vary but not too much.

So what's the assignment? Is it just fencing job? Or building? I ask because you will have better value for money as a package.

If it is building, is there a project manager on site? If not, knowledgeable direction of the Mason is essential. There should be someone who gives orders as the Mason are good skillfully but not educated enough for me to leave on their own.

Nop not at the moment once work is about to commence she would need an Engineer or project manager to give directives as we now see a need to change the plan a bit. as we stand, she needs to add three coaches B4 decking that's the job at hand now, she is decking later in the year but Im just encouraging her to proceed, she stopped at lintel since 2012 due to family wahala

Cement Offloading Stealing (Watch)
It is a general phenomenon that Cement can be counted from the surface, but it will be dangerous to know that what you see in the surface is different from what is inside.

Step 1: during offloading the off loaders will request for pure water or something to take you off from location at the completion of 1st role, then their evil work will start a bag of will be crossed over two lines thereby 1bag is off before you arrive they will cover it up, that can be done as many as possible times.

Step 2: after the 1st role in the middle the a bag will be placed vertically, thereby automatically removing 1bag, when looking from the top you assume all are of same height.

What to watch for after offloading check every part of the truck, tapolin , they will woo you they have some bags to sell, they only trying to sell your goods to you.

well said, this is why people remain suppliers while their mates have progressed to be main distributors, people remain roadside mechanic while their mates have fixed-site workshop owned. People will be bricklayers for the whole of their lives while others had progressed to be Engineers!

you guys should follow the new world order, try and change ur ways and adopt new methods of marketing, it would not kill you to put cost and Dimensions when you show these works and also show works on site so we don't think all you do is marketing cos we frown on this here.

What is the difference between paying for block setting per block vs per SQM?

I recently heard about paying SQM and they claim its supposed to be cheaper and easier to estimate Is this true?
Are you aware of this method? If yes, what's the rate to use?

Thanks

You don't need to pay 2000naira for the labourer after paying 50naira for each block. 30naira is payment for the bricklayer while 20naira is payment for the labourer.

Might be but trusted me from the eyes of a prospective landlord, stick to block counting, its easier to account for, that being said, you will be shortchanged anyhow you monitor but at least you know the figures U paid for when you count!

It's good to also note that half block is counted as one full block. So you may supply 500 blocks to site, but may end up paying 530 for example. So it is the setting of the block they count per say instead of the actual block. If you supply 500 blocks to site, don't expect to pay for 500 blocks.

I know that, what I was saying was block laid being counted not block on the ground,
