OilSubsidy: @Prof Spyder, Like how much are you budgeting for the painting sir? Also is there a name for that your door? it's nice. I have already bought most of the paints to be used inside this house. My spending for paints stands at N85k but I think I will spend up to N220k before it will get to the taste I want, here are some of the paints I bought last week.

We have been experimenting with all kinds of designs and styles for the sake of adding a special look on this house. I personally designed this one to see how it will look on my wall edge, just being creative

spyder880: more lights, my living room chandelier is of this design and colour.I wonder why you are fixing lights before painting the walls. |

blink182: I wonder why you are fixing lights before painting the walls. The ideal thing is to paint the walls before fixing the lights, but since my painter is indisposed at the moment, we decided to fix two rooms ready for use. I will personally mask the lights with tape and old newspapers as we start painting next week, na my house na, I cannot allow any lapses |

spyder880:Makes a lot of sense. I was beginning to wonder. Since you are in a state with heavy construction, I want to ask what those cranes at building sites are used for. That large building being built close to me has no crane on site, they simply build pillars, deck and build more pillars, presently, they are on the 2nd floor and each floor height is like 2.5 normal floors. |

blink182: Makes a lot of sense. I was beginning to wonder. Construction cranes are mainly used as a supply vehicle to get materials and sometimes personnel to the points in the project they are needed with minimum delays. Many construction cranes are positioned to have access to the top of the building project, that is the area where mixed concrete, metal bars and other heavy materials will be used. |

Most people choose building materials wothout doing enough research. Aesthetics is good but there are other key factors to consider. I usually shake my head when i see pvc ceilings in residential buildings. Go find out its flaws |
Re: The Real Cost Of Building A 6 Bedroom Duplex (reloaded) by waleolu7(m): 5:23pm On Jan 23, 2013 |
Thanks Architect Jude. But what does he mean by the concrete specification? |
Re: The Real Cost Of Building A 6 Bedroom Duplex (reloaded) by GeorgeD1(m): 5:24pm On Jan 23, 2013 |
