Yeah, you are right from one side. But let me say this. In reality this is the highest amount I have seen my client spent on a borehole. But guess what. It's better done now than never. And I will tell you why.

The daily water tank usage is averagely 8 - 13,000 Naira for a tanker. The day we did wetting of the filling sand. We used 2Hp sumo to pump water for almost 8hrs none stop. That's over 25 to 35 Tankers just for a day. Now if we bought that tanker at 10K each
That's approximately 350K for filling only. Mind you. We are using water daily for other construction. On the long run on this project before its roofing or completion. We ought to have used over 2million Naira worth of water.

Yes, I know what I am saying. From experience, construction takes alot of water. Coz that's the bedrock of construction. From setting block to concrete works, tiling, pop, landscaping etc and also for continuous usage of water when the building is ready coupled with the fact we are going to have swimming pool. We can't achieve these with well water. It has to be borehole, running at full throttle.

You can imagine we are using 2Hp because of the depth of over 650fit below the earth
So in my opinion, I always advise client to dig borehole before any construction work commence on site. No matter the amount. Water is a necessity for construction and for subsequent usage after construction. You can't spend over 20million in building a house without being able to have a 2.5m worth of borehole should need be.


My humble submission.

I salute the courage of the client.
We have used over 750 bags of Cement in just 15 Days at 3550 naira as at today.

Rain finally fell today, meanwhile we made some progress

In the course of this project.
We have made some few adjustments upon client request, you can imagine updating or adjusting a design while constructing it at a great pace.

Just like our routine, after decking. We would allow the building to set very well for a month + to enable every area get to it is curing point.

Nonetheless, worthy changes on this project are as follows...

- Fence Design and size and also shape from anticipated or initial thought.

- New Site plan and arrangement. Am still working on the 3D but hope to finish it when am less busy. Not in a hurry coz I have already implemented it all from my mind to the ground... Immediately those requests where made. That's real time architecture.

- The BQ was reduced and infact redesigned during setting out from 3 Bedroom to 2 bedroom all room en suite and visitor's Toilet, dinning and kitchen with living room.

- Security and Gen House was added as a new scope on ground too. We are all doing these at the same time...

We have got the experience to implement things in real time. That's the beauty that comes with our project and construction management...

We are preparing for decking already.
Decking work on the main building commencing tomorrow...

Stay Tuned. Carpentry form work to start first.
Iron works preparation on ground ongoing.

We are working still...

Main Building leveling is 100% complete now.

Update on the decking works here.
We have the best team and working spirit.
You can see, Welder following up simultaneously as the decking construction is ongoing.

There are levels to how we manage to achieve everything we do in the shortest time. Team building and spirit is important and understanding is key.

Everyone knows what to do.

As we speak, security house block work is ongoing simultaneously. BQ is at Lintel level. Waiting for the carpenter to conclude decking.
Meanwhile the BQ can rest for a day or two before any work is done there.

We are moving at a pace. We are collaborating. We are strategically executing. Indeed with our team. You can be assured of 100% quality work. No doubt. We have no choice but to deliver excellence. We let our work walk the talk.

From the very start, the sole intention is to create and add to Nigeria's concrete jungle!

Greenery is a crime and abomination to many Nigerians.
