It's a free world

Hire builder, if you like but if the building collapses, don't cry also

As for the 6 million issue, when you do it for a 2-bedroom bungalow, come back on nairaland and give us a breakdown of the costing.

Maybe your builder has better costing skills than an engineer of over 30 years experience .


Miracles do happen


N:b : The 13 million for 2-bedroom bungalow is not a township building , but for one in a village in Abia State.

My brother, there's little or no need for a civil engineer when it comes to small bungalows, even in lagos you don't need building approval for a bungalow cause it doesn't carry heavy loads.

Trevor125:
10-13M

you are very correct

Moneyboyz:
1m you are funny bro.
Wiring alone will take about 600k plus for that house alone.

Give or take just budget around 8 plus.

I'm handling a project, wiring is something else.

Treasure17:

How did you know? Should 1M be okay with the first building, I'm down for it.

1m what U dey Nigeria so

You need o.

Like this, E sure say you never even do the foundation and probably gonna use less expensive roofing materials which isn't aluminium. And no tiles and good interior stuffs.

He can do that later.House no be rush.

talk2hb1:

8-10 millions minimum

Or more

greenermodels:
you're joking, drop the floor plan.

You will spend,between 11 to 13M if you are very prudent and didn't comprise standard

greenermodels:
you're joking, drop the floor plan.

You don't need floor plan if ur into the field.

Obviously this is 1bedroom flat which can cover about 60sqm.

As an architect, I can tell you precisely what it will cost to erect such simple design.

Alamu5891:
I roofed my 3 bedrooms bungalow few weeks back
12 bundles of G$d roofing sheet at the cost of 65k per bundle and I used 12 bundle’s
Roofing sheet -780k
Plank 496k
Transport 20k
Accessories 78k
Workmanship 120k

Going through the comments, others referred to it as a two bedroom flat while you concluded it's a one bedroom besides do you also know the amenities included such as number of bathrooms? Assumptions can be dangerous.

250k for doors? Nope
200k for ceilings? Nope
800k for all workmanship? Nope

And those that told you is 2 bedroom were the designers.

Is one bedroom apartment and I can prove it.

For 2 bedroom, you need two 1.2m windows and another two .6m on one side wall so the wall will have the rooms side by side and Sitting room and Dining the other side then Kitchen at the centre back. And from the window positions, this is not 2 bedroom.

Your talking to a professional. I've design so many mega buildings including Kano State CBN Hospital.

Three bedroom and parlour is more functional. For example one for the master/mistress, second bedroom for boys and the third bedroom for girls. Male guest can stay in the boys room and female guest in the girls room.
Also, you can convert one room for guest if they visit.
Except if you intend to stay in that House briefly and plan to get a better one in future. The essence is for the kids.
At old age, you can choose to convert those rooms to what ever you want.
Spending millions for just two rooms is not cool. You can just sacrifice to make it three.

Although I'm not the one you replied, but I appreciate your response... Too much sense full your head

Please add a decking to get more rooms upstairs in future or when you are buoyant

What is your budget? With 8million upward then you'll come up with something.

If you intend to build a house, please don't waste your money building 2 bedrooms and a parlour. Try make it up to 3 bedrooms and a parlour.

Or make provision for another floor

Ntigha:
Between 20 million - 30 million depending on the finishing you want

That's if he makes it a one storey building

CircleOfWilis:

trust me this is flat roofing but the measurements is standard

And you preferred the report of a novice than the report of a qualified architect?

It will be more expensive. I believe the guy is trying to save cost.

Impossible

What about a room and parlour sef. . I'd like to erect one in my family compound as a BQ

micxwell:
We don offend you before🤣. Some are actually just greedy that's all, they want to make more than what is necessary.

The matter tire me o. 13 million ke? This is why most people handle their housing projects themselves without any middleman. If your money long, you fit use 30 million run bungalow sef. For someone that wants to start life small small, abeg make una let am breathe.

Seriously? And u used Galvanized zinc...Using long span aluminum will jerk it even higher

There's this neighbor who erected a 2 bedroom and parlour on one plot of land and still have a lot of space Infront. The building was erected at the back edge so I was wondering why didn't he just build a 3 bedroom since there's lot of space left. If he decided to erect a selfcon at each edge of the land there'd be no space for parking lot and no potential tenant would want to bargain for such house considering no space to park 2-3 cars...

But if he decided to leave the space like that, that space left can contain 5 cars conveniently lol..

Truly 2 bedroom is just a waste of money ND rendering the remaining space on a land to be useless

I am done with the block work. I am planning for roofing next month. I am definitely gonna use less expensive roofing materials. I am definitely gonna use tiles
