Hello house. Just to ask some questions.

What is the advantages & disadvantages of building a contemporary bungalow house over the other normal high roof type??


The idea is to build something more unique and the same time manage cost.

why do people like COCACOLA OVER PEPSI?
Why do you support Barca and I support Liverpool (for eg)

Whats is the height of the concrete stand or height of the building (very important), number of tanks you want to place on it (important)... and the soil type.

Note: If its a waterlogged soil, I'll ask for a design by an Engineer before attempting to..

Goodluck

It's just to the height of the roof of the bungalow.The land is solid and its for a single 2000 litres tank.
Thank you.

Good day everyone, below is the labour cost and rough estimate of material for a four bedroom bungalow (attached is the floor plan) given to me.


LABOUR
Setting out # 20,000
Digging of foundation 70,000
Casting of foundation # 40,000
Filling of foundation # 70,000
Casting of slabs # 80,000
Setting of Block # 270,000
Casting of lintel # 30,000

MATERIALS:
4500 pieces of Block
10 load of Gravel
9 load of Sand
220 bag of cement

I am mostly concern about the labour cost because I would be on-site to monitor the use of materials.


Please is the Labour cost fair? Or High?

Location is Ibadan
Beat down the block setting to 225,000

Firstly, You need to make sure your roof is not leaking o.
The solution is for you to regash, redress and shine the crack line .. just call any Pop guy to come with a bit of POP powder and FILAX, It will do the trick

But before doing all this check your roofing for leakage and your walls for ground moisture seepage

Thanks so much for your contribution I appreciate...




Sincerely it seems like the Engineers and the Architects in this forum doesn't really know or cannot explain properly in a reasonable & understandable manner the deference between the two type of buildings...... sad sad

I knew of someone with similar experience too and noticed thesame goes to everyone in that environment, only those that did German floor and DPc were safe... recently spoke with someone on the issue and was told that if only they had done those things stated, they wont be going through such and the cracks keeps coming from different places, like close to door frames, wall demarcation areas etc...the cracks are always increasing during dry season too, someone suggested we break those crack regions and fill with small 8" rods or bottles then dress with good quantity of cement..

I believe it is fair (if the 4500 blocks are correct)..

Price it down a bit (especially the block setting can still come to 220k, 230k, 240k) or to whatever you both agree on; but note - its fair

Thanks.
Please pardon my ignorance, I am a bit confused on two of the terms above.

Casting of foundation and casting of slabs.

They seem like the same thing two me i.e German floor.

Please enlighten me

My brother if it's not the blocks that us cracking . It's nothing. If na just the plaster na the quality of the sand cause am. Best advice is to apply screeding pop paint . It will cover everything up one time.

This is one of problems facing here (ILESA). Some claim the foundation is faulty forgetting the state of the land as a whole. Google can help with the likely solution, sr.
