He’s obviously quoting for a precast parapet. A lot of homeowners have run into problems because we are looking for a builder/engineer who can speak Queens English.

I think I understand what he’s trying to do and how to handle such worker if he’s working for me. I won’t be looking for ways to only cut cost but a way to get the best out of him.
please which is precast parapet , what's the difference

nothing beats a neat job. It's not always easy cleaning up and getting down to finishing touches in this part of the world especially with our crude tools. That's why I respect people who invest in tools like mogaji. Quickens the job and gives a more premium looks.

Looked around town and I can't find stuff like these.


The attached door is the strongest I have made. It's not bullet proof but I can tell you a thief will suffer to break into the house.

2mm for the framing

2.5mm pan

1.5mm for the frame.

To be able to lift this from the ground, you really need to eat well or it will be exercise in futility.

Precast one is the one that has been moulded and will mainly be hung on the wall.
A lot of differences, the precast is less expensive, no formwork needed, lighter reinforcement.
Below are pictures of cast in-situ concrete fascia (parapet)

If it's not much of a hassle could you state what this is?

I was engaged to do a build in an estate that has a lot of restrictions on how and what can be built.
On this particular build, the major challenge is height restriction. You cannot have 3 floors regardless the size of your land.

The project designer was informed about this and was asked to redesign the project to satisfy the estate’s building requirements.

This took almost 1 year of back-n-forth and revisions with the estate’s design team. It was at this point I was engaged to redesign the first floor to reflect and achieve the proposed changes.

I engaged about 2 architects here that couldn’t get the job done until I met the young lad who introduced the concept of a double volume rooms in the upper floor. He also proposed the use of steel for the proposed slabs.

We met the estate’s requirements and was also able to achieve our goals.

To get approval for building in this estate is harder than getting approval from Lagos state.

Ok. Well so far so good.
Please how much do they charge per sqm for screeding? Any idea?
I don't have the idea. I charge screeding together with painting on negotiation not per sqm.

Less is always beautiful. I will take minimal decoration over cluttered and complicated one anytime - see how simple that TV stand looks. Add some greenery there like live green leaves plants in a pot and the place will look extraordinary to those that loves beauty, calmness and nature.

Interior Design is a field on it own... Professional in building just dazzle Into it base on client's specifications.. At the end .. it may look good to the client, but not pleasant to general public... At this stage, who is to be blamed?..

Interesting, I had the same problem with my house in North London however we have a few tricks to go round its, instead of going up we go down, is this not achievable? you excavate the whole base and build from there instead
