Why the ceilng without plastering.
Its putting the cart before the horse
It will muddle the ceiling when you start plastering.

Share your thought as to why.

With good expertise in plastering you don't need to worry about it muddling the ceiling,it will be done perfectly because na d work when Dem dey do.

Good job. I noticed the white sand and I was surprised plus it's quite cost effective. Can the blocks be used for walling a compound and why use white sand?

All colors of sand here are same price,but the white sand is the best for all building works because it's neat and also absorb in to cement quickly than the rest,when mixing you can easily Identify the area with much or less cement,there are lots of good reasons.
In my area I always source for white because I have a good dealer and he sells d double tipper sand for 16k

Mizwisdom:



What's the cost of purchasing this ceiling board and what's the brand called?

I don't know the brand,no name on it,I bought 4bundles for 20k,5k per one.

Good day to everyone following,we did German flooring and a bit of plastering.

Well done sir... God bless, I am following you bumper to bumper.

Last weekend I bought few electrical pipes and wire for 5k,iron protector for the window 10k for two.i will upload pictures of the items later, good morning.

In Rivers state before you talk of land have 1 million

Great job @op, I like how you record and account for spent expenditures.

How did you deal with Land grabbers (we call them Ọmọ onílé here) from the starting to the roofing of both houses?


You didn't mention the documents given to you at the point of payment for the land.


I guess you are your own bricklayer which makes the spending much lower but do you have any other casual people working with you and how do you pay them?

Actually we don't land grabber here, although I paid 10k at the initial start of the first building,that covers any building I partake in my land.
I did my own agreement documentation by a reputable lawyer and surveyor,since the seller got the land by inheritance like a share property,I make sure all the elders of the family partake in the process.

Alright, Thanks Great work! And great environment to build

At this stage was surprised for some days people are already pressuring us to lease it out,a guy came today and is even willing to come later to pay for a year and six months.

Capeverde:
It started at around July 2017 when we were able to purchase a land for 200k,it's half plot of land 100×50 at community that is not up to 5mins away from the city center.
We were so lucky at that time because we bought the land directly from the owners not those reselling.
I have everything jotted down from day 1, am good at keeping record.

.


100x50 is our one plot in Bayelsa

Capeverde:

Do you mean the size of the floors per room?

Not only the room size. But also the interior walls, windows, doors, hall ways etc. From here, one would be able to specify their arrangements.
