Dear nairalanders,

I looking to start this project by the end of the month and need reputable contractors that can design and build small 2 bedroom, sitting room, kitchen, bathroom and toilet on a standard plot of land. Looking for quotations with stage payments built in. Would appreciate any contributions of suggested reputable contractors who will deliver to budget and on time.

I have been browsing this forum for a while and I'm aware of certain reputable contractors and welcome their input.

In random order

Darenyx

This might be below Skimanski build quantity (perception) and Spyder880 doesn’t do Ibadan (yet).

Good luck on your project.

Thank you Sir,

I guess your response also rules you out as I thought you did Ibadan

Who is Skimanski please i.e. profile name.

Thank you

Please let the quotation be made here so that we can all learn from it. Not "pm me" or "send me you email" type.

Thanks.

I'm not a professional builder, just an "enthusiastic" owner that is playing General Contractor on his own private build

Skimanksi - https://www.nairaland.com/skimanski

Skimanski builds USA quality level houses but not sure if he does small builds. It will be outstanding if you and him can work something out. We need to "add new dimension to Ibadan Architecture"

Ma bad, got the wrong end of the stick somehow but thank you for enlightening me and more importantly contributing to my getting some answers here.

Thank you for the skimanski lead and hope something can come out of it.

I would love this actually but the objective is to get this completed and if sharing this here will hinder that then it's a no-brainer

Good. I planned such a project in Ogun too.

I had to abandon it after foundation & German floor. Because I am not impressed by how the person handling it has been doing it. Not quality wise, but he likes to do it piecemeal. That way you can never know how much will complete it. More chance to inflate prices.

You know our people easily get offended and call you ungrateful when you scrutinize their work.

No problem, we are all in this together.

At the risk of offending other very worthy builders, I highly recommend Darenyx https://www.nairaland.com/darenyx. He did my architectural plan. Just an all-around pleasant person to deal with and a true professional. A young person with modern viewpoints, timely and in my opinion very cost effective. I am a twice paying customer and not a paid advertising. I just like to reward good guys.

You have a great opportunity to follow his latest build at https://www.nairaland.com/4333870/building-one-small-house-design which is a smaller house too but a double story one.

Re: I just like to reward good guys .

Thank you I've just been browsing another of his ongoing builds and I'll look this one up. Thank you for pointing me in his direction.

I understand and this process surely teaches one patience. I hope you find the right contractor to complete things for you.

The one I was browsing and the one you were suggesting are the one and same build. It's going up really fast

In reality, a house can be completed in 3 to 6 weeks if the soil is good, money is on hand, not rainy period, stars are in alignment, etc.

If you have time, watch some builds done by Spyder880 https://www.nairaland.com/spyder880, he has perfected the ability to raise 3, 4, 5 floors seemingly overnight.

I'm approaching retirement and will spend it doing small estates (4 to 6 houses) in Western states. My time is now spent on creating business plans which include timeframes. I have been doing some calculations on how fast one can build a good and safe house. If the groundworks in the estate has been done and the build pad is already set then I see no reason why a 2,500 square feet house can't be finished in 5 weeks. Of course on paper

I think the reliability of artisans and labourers can be limiting factor, I suspect the ability to complete projects on time and on budget is going to ball down to relationships between all the professionals brought to a project and the money being on hand to keep the project going till completion.

I hope to see your dreams materialise and potentially being a part of it.

Whats the Size of Your Land ?

Sorry for delayed response, it's been a long day. The land is approximately 17 by 25 metres.
