So regarding internet versus market, for the benefit of those that were not on here from the early days. This is not top castigate any seller because we live in a free enterprise.

It is common knowledge that some sellers on the street think majority of the people building are Ajebotas, Londoners, Abrodians, etc and thus prices and services are adjusted. Even up to the level of outright fraud and arrests with mugshots. On this thread.

So one has to always find street prices and purchase accordingly. I have been accused that I do not buy from vendors on here (which is not true), but the TOS of the site does not require us to buy from each other.

Thanks.

Exactly why I go to the market myself. Internet prices are exorbitantly high.
I only resort to the Internet if it is my last option..

I don't understand. Why will your carpenter want to tell him all the woods are bad? Do him want colabo with him to get his own Eguje or what.

That’s the game carpenters play.

Thanks for this. Really encouraging. With this I’m now confident that even if I surpass 5M it won’t be by a lot. Thank you so much.

If flat land, if self build, then I don't see any reason why it can't get you to roofing.

You’ll do well. Setting up blocks is the cheap and easy part of house building. The real money starts at roofing and finishing.

Regardless of what your masons say please use damp proof covering on your German floor, it’s like N20K or so. Use pillars at the corners and chained beam.

If time permits, study the early pages of this thread. Lots of great posts there. The only thing that’s changed is prices have gone up but things to learn still.

Yes I have read some of the thread but there’s still a whole lot to take in. I’ll keep reading. Your advice on damp proof is noted.

Also pillars at the corners & chained beam. I read somewhere here it’s good especially when parapet is intended to help balance the load so I’ll definitely go for it.

So if I get you clearly, to use pillars at the 4 corners of the house so 4 pillars entirely or to use at every corner in the structure?

Thanks for your help.

My carpenter was also not happy I got the supply of wood from another source ( hslbroker2). But when I asked him of the quality, he confirmed the quality was ok. So I told him case close. After all, I go pay you for your job.

I am not sure if you are on ground. If you are doing this from oversea, I will recommend you get an engineer and use your knowledge here to direct him. You may have to fire and rehire. I am talking from experience
