My project is at Aboru around Iyana-ipaja Lagos. My decking cost almost N2m (N1,913,500:00) go back to post #1335 page 42 for break down of materials, cost, and labour.

Prince_onx, this is a life project and cutting cost is not part of the game when it comes to contruction. 9" is okay for the walls and 6" for partition. The walls will support the roof. A word is enough for the wise!

@ prince_onx

Where are you building? How much have you spent to this level? Do you have a rough idea of how much might bring it to completion? Also, I have a question I'd rather not ask you on the public forum, what email addy can I reach you at?

More grease to your elbows.

My project is in Aboru (iyana-ipaja Lagos), I know I have wired $10K 4times from January to April 2011 and I no get change left (don't have the full break down) but post #2306 page 73 and post #1335 page 42 will help with some details. I honestly do no know what it will cost to finish the project but if it exceds N20m even if na one window remain I go leave am like that  grin send email to , if e no work call 911 and ask of me  grin

That's what I plan to do. Use 9" for all 4 sides then 6" for the partitioning.

These are the pictures I could pick for pasting among all the pictures he gave me, one thing about this guy is that I have seen many of his works. There is this big house in my neighborhood which he fitted out from top to bottom, all wordworks. The interior was a beauty. He has worked in Lagos before and says he is ready to travel to any part of this country to do a job. I couldnt attach all the pictures he gave me but I have seen his works. You can call him on 08036349918 or 08075260714.

All roofing materials are good, just a little better than each other. Take a market survey of the cost of Aluzinc, Aluminium long-span and Asbestos (Nigerite Roofing Sheet). Your pocket/budget will determine what to use. If you like Aluminium longspan but, your budget could not cover it, you may go for Aluzinc. Aluzinc has a close resemblance to Longspan but a bit light in gauge and sometimes size.

Post your floor plan. But out of curiousity, how have you been doing it before? Are there no plan?
Re: The Real Cost Of Building A Six Bedroom Duplex by spyder880(m): 4:11pm On Jun 11, 2011
I went to my house today to see a man that wants to buy my decking wood. I agreed to sell about 100 planks @ N400 per plank and he will take down the planks with his workers. I will paste pictures and updates as soon as he removes the wood from under the deck. I will also minus the money I collected for the deck wood from the total money spent on building my house.

@Brabus,

I have a plan already but after building the ground floor, i noticed that a lot of space is been wasted and my architect said he designed the laundry to be under the second staircase but i don't really buy that idea because i work for a construction company as well and i can see there is a mistake somewhere.I will upload the pictures and the plan soon. thanks

Help ! I need to know how much it will cost to fence a land with the following dimension in lekki 2--front and back -25m each , one side is 40.7m. The other side is fenced. Total meters to fenced is 90.7m. Someone is giving me an estimate of 1.3million including gate. Is this fair?

Is this a water log area? If it is, then it will need a raft foundation and in that case, the price is appropriate. If not, knock off about 30%. I can direct you a someone that can manage this for you. She will give you a breakdown of all the materials you will need. I assume this is excluding the plastering on fence.

Here is the plan.

Re: The Real Cost Of Building A Six Bedroom Duplex by 3ppleT: 4:59pm On Jun 12, 2011
First Floor

Re: The Real Cost Of Building A Six Bedroom Duplex by brabus(m): 5:29pm On Jun 12, 2011
3pleT, you need only one staircase in that house I'm seeing. Convert the stair in the kitchen to a Laundry or Pantry/Store. The space on the first floor can be used as game/gym room. My one cent
Re: The Real Cost Of Building A Six Bedroom Duplex by egin(m): 5:38pm On Jun 12, 2011
You can add the space for the 2nd stairs to the kitchen. The kitchen as you have it now is not big enough, On the first floor you can convert the space for the stairs to a home office or an extra room.
