The same set but different brand of this twyford cost around $300 from LOWES in U.S. Infact, for N80,000 you will get a lot for your money if you can buy from U.S. Let me know if you are interested. |

Re: The Real Cost Of Building A Six Bedroom Duplex by AmAlone: 9:57pm On Mar 26, 2011 |
I forgot to mention that I went to buy A/C pipes for my conduit a/c piping today and because I have 7 a/c for the house, The total was 88,620(including transport and workmanship for the a/c man which is 55,000 to do the conduit of a/c and to come and install the A/C when the house is finished. And also includes my conduit gas cooker pipe for the passage of gas, because I want to have my cylinder outside my house! Instead of pipe for the passage of the gas, I used copper. I was informed it is way better. So the copper goes for 4 for the roll. then I bough an extra 5 yard hose. Which I will use to connect the cylinder to the copper and the copper to the gass coker!) Also, plumber fee for the 4 toilets(including gate man's toilet) is 50k This money includes the piping and the finishing of all the plumbing works! Add this to the last total and you will get: N4,461,820 AS THE TOTAL MONEY SPENT SO FAR!!!!! My Next Moves, The bricklayer will be coming to work on Monday or Tuesday. He will be coming to plaster and dress that concrete design and the best price I could get for the job is 25k! Also, I will be buying 100 bags of cement on Monday(the price is around N2,100 or so per bag here in Lagos!!! But I will update you after I buy!!!). Also, this week, I plan to go and buy ALL the doors for the house. and all the 7 a/c for the house. I will be buying this original imported doors for all the house and it would cost me around 500k for all the doors alone and the A/c may cost me 400k or less!!! For the doors, I have three 4 feet doors, and the original one goes for 80 to 150k per 4 feet door. The china one goes for 38k(for the high quality china one o!!!) Then for the 3 feet door. The china one goes of 18k. But for the original one, I have no idea now!!! When I get to the market and when I finish buying them, I will let you know!!! And lastly, the carpenters took some two days break(Thursday and Friday) and the resumed work today with the noggins. They have finished the noggins of the sitting room and 2 bedroom. They were three that worked there today. And they will resume on Monday. Also, I will have to buy some more woods for the noggins. But not very much sha I promise you! AND BY THE GRACE OF GOD ALMIGHTY, I WILL GO TO THE COMPANY THAT WILL FIX THE ROOFING SHEET FOR ME TO COME AND TAKE THEIR MEASUREMENTS. AN ESTIMATE OF THE ROOFING SHEET ALONE IS AROUND A MILLION. maybe less |
Re: The Real Cost Of Building A Six Bedroom Duplex by AmAlone: 10:01pm On Mar 26, 2011 |
olubuffett: You are right Olubuffett Anyways, I bought mine here in Naija!!! for that price and I believe price varies!!!! Also, buying in bulk is always a gud idea I did be glad if I could had got it cheaper but I did be sad if was not really what I wanted! Whenever I look at it, this one I bought. It looks impossible to get for 50k -- true talk!!! Peace! |
Re: The Real Cost Of Building A Six Bedroom Duplex by olubuffett: 10:32pm On Mar 26, 2011 |
The good thing is they are durable and will last longer, make sure the plumber do a good job with the flushing system and test two button for a while. Happy buildngi |

@ Am Alone, I love the way you spend this money, Chai! If you gat it, flaunt it. You obviously love quality and have the means to obtain it. Well done, just look for the best and enjoy the purchase, price is of no essence, you peace of mind, contentment and satisfaction in your fittings should take priority. However, people like me will think twice before buying Twyford for 80k, its a matter of choice sha. There are toilet seats that sell for N4500 and people still shait with it for the whole life cycle of the house. On a funny note, if poo poo hold you baaaad, and you rush into a public toilet, do you start inspecting the labels or do your business and walk out? But its all good, happy usage. |

Thank you spyder880, Am Alone, Brabus, and the other contributors to this wonderful thread. This is just perfect timing for me and i have had to save alot of the posts on costs of buying building materials and noted other expenses. When i begin my project, i will definitely post step by step progress from site. |
Re: The Real Cost Of Building A Six Bedroom Duplex by brabus(m): 4:49pm On Mar 27, 2011 |
spyder880: olubuffett:Am Alone, Chop Your Life! Nuffin do you, I don't have a problem with it! I do think if you are rich enough to buy Twyford of N80kfor your house, you also need to do stuffs for the community you live! In my own case, I grade the road, did the drainage, donate 5 concrete pole and sink well for the community. N80k WC would not matter if the road to your house is an eye sore or your next door neighbour dey throw shot put. |
Re: The Real Cost Of Building A Six Bedroom Duplex by eros(m): 6:01pm On Mar 27, 2011 |
brabus: You are truly someone with a great and kind heart. This is something everyone and anyone who owns a house should do for the community he/she lives in. That is if these basic amenities are not already in place. |

Most of the times wey my girl dey come around, she go fit dey inside toilet make i go meet her. Or she dey bath make i just go sit down there and we go begin dey jist. I like toilet wey go be like my second sitting room to me bros. AND I LIKE MAKE YOU UNDERSTAND SAY I NO GO MARKET GO BUY EXPENSIVE THINGS I GO MARKET GO BUY ORIGINAL THINGS!!! JUST THAT ORIGINAL THINGS ARE ALWAYS EXPENSIVE!!!! NO lele!!! |

Re: The Real Cost Of Building A Six Bedroom Duplex by AmAlone: 8:50pm On Mar 27, 2011 |
@ ALL, my capenter just called some minits ago that I still need to buy 130 piece of 2 by 2 woods for the noggins. They have done the noggins for my sitting room and 2 extra rooms, and I still have some few woods left! I will be having pop on every part of the house so they are doing the noggins 2ft by 2ft(maybe that is why I am using so much woods) So tomorrow, BY THE GRACE OF GOD i will go and buy the woods. so that they can just finish their own job once and for all. That will make it a total of 1,130 pieces of woods used(though I still have some few woods extra that will not be used again. but they are less than 20) OLUWA CHAMPION[color=#550000][/color] |

Am Alone: The English man says his house is his castle, when building its very important to buy quality even if you get it cheap or not, you can buy a car now if you don't like it you can sell in six month, but with a house you put sweat and money you can't do that. |
