Egbeda LGA.
here's the prices for each of the sizes

4 * 4 ....16,000

3 * 3..... 13,000

2 * 2..... 5000

2 * 4.....7000

6 * 4....... 18,000

Here is the details of the materials to be used.

16mm square rod for the framing of the windows

14mm square rod for the interior designs.

Kindly note that you determine the choice of materials and can decide for something lower which will significantly lower the prices also.


I just went around town and most of the parks are yet to open so I couldn't get drivers going directly to Egbeda. The guy I usually use stops at Jibowu. I tried to convince him to get down to Egbeda but the numbers he's calling isn't encouraging. So I plan to check on other drivers by tomorrow morning. Thanks

Dear house, is it cheaper to build a 5 bed duplex with red bricks although? Considering there would be no need for plastering, screeding and painting.

It is not. I thought of the idea before starting my project as I so much love bricks and natural stones as exterior wall rendering. If you have the money, fire on with the bricks. It makes the house everlasting and differentiates your build from the rest within the neighbourhood.

Sigh! I guess you don’t want to disturb the architect anymore hence the bolded part above.

Well truth be told, that design is not functional at all. I’d have loved to list out the modifications I’d made to that plan if I’m asked to redesign but the list is endless.

I'm in talk with one of our architects in kobocity to see if we can come up with a better layout (for FREE).

Well done! Wishing you a great year!

As promised, we took on this job and make some changes to the old design to have something not just functional but modern.

In her words, our client said:
I have always liked that concept of someone entering the house from the back without visitors knowing who came in, same way I can also leave through the back without them knowing

So we played around with options and eventually introduced a very nice contemporary feature called lipstick.

We also did a lot of back and forth to increase the value of the building.
As an astronaut that my uncle called me grin grin I understand that good design commands a higher premium and a great designer must understand how to maximize the use of space.

So what’s new?

- Great relationship between indoor and outdoor living spaces
- 3.3m High Ceiling
- Large Rooms/Kitchen
- Well-Curated Fixtures and furnishings
- Functional Living Spaces for Minimalists

_____
Pic 1 - Privacy Screen considered
Pic 2 - Featured Wall (Lipstick) added

Thank you for the detailed opinion. 850k was just based on old quote found on Nairaland. I will get another artisan to give another quote. Thank you very much.

megacontrol:
Hello,

What is your budget of 850k benchmarked against?
Is that just a hunch and a nice round figure or based on quote from similar job?

Like someone said in their response to you, how does this brand/grade rank when compared to others like Tower, Ghana Imported, PVC and the likes? That's a better way to make comparison.

Get same contractor to give you a quote for other brands/grade, then you'll know which one falls within your budget bracket, then get other contractor(s) to quote for that same brand/grade you selected.

One good thing about windows is that there's always something for every budget.

Cheers.

Please how is aluminum roofing measured in the market?

I am seeing different prices for aluminum step tiles.

Some are saying 1,300 for 0.45mm


Another is saying 2,400 for 0.45mm


Is it that there are different measurements

Is it per sheet?

Secondly, I read somewhere that foreign ones are cheaper than local ones..

Is that the reason for the difference in the two prices?

I am interested in knowing the price of step tiles aluminum around onitsha and nnewi.


Maybe the way people in the with East measure it is different from the way it's measured in the south west.

If anyone sells 0.45mm for you for 1,300 at present...

They probably stole it.

Police will come and retrieve it from your roof

Engr dam4sam, I built a bungalow without pillars at a location close to where Lafarge blasts limestone every 2 days. It’s almost 9 years now and there are no signs of visible cracks. Am I taking unnecessary risk?

My foundation though can conveniently support 3 floors. It’s 1.2m deep but no pillars and 9in sandcrete blocks were used.

You're saying the foundation without columns will carry 3 floors. Consider the weight of three suspended floors (decking)?

Hello House, I just found this thread. Please I was given this quotation for Casement Windows ( Aero-gold ) and burglary. I feel im been cheated considering the budget I had was 850k and this is running into 1.150m already. Kindly advise bosses.

I said my foundation can conveniently carry 3 floors. I didn’t say my foundation without columns can conveniently carry 3 floors. You added “without columns” grin

Interestingly, in the same location I have another foundation with column that’s carrying 2 floors.

The foundation without column is for bungalow.

to answer your question about knowing tower aluminium profile, Yes I do. the dimension of one of his windows 900 by 1500 is similar to mine. if you divide 620 000 naira by the number of windows in his quotation which is 16, you will get 38,750 naira. I was given a quote of 35k with net.
