The best! Best option for me is this one . Simple and lovely. Tiles round the house is odd & on the shelf. We have expensive paints that keeps water away from the walls of the building .
Yeah. I love it's simplicity as well. Pls suggest quality paints specifically made to combat this problem.

Greetings house.

I noticed this belting and tiling is a common practice. People say it's to slow down capillary and also protect that part of the building from water splash. But I personally do not fancy it.

Is it really necessary or just for aesthetics? Someone help pls..

European Football (EPL, UEFA, La Liga) › Re: Manchester United Vs Arsenal (3 - 1) On 4th September 2022 by Coiner: 6:40pm On Sep 04, 2022
My take from this game.

Arteta's use of inverted full backs: Zinchenko tucking into the midfield when Arsenal is in possession to create an overload, drag Utd's midfield narrow and provide an extra man through the channels... Granted, this helps with the build up and it works most of the time.

Pep Guardiola first implemented this style at Bayern Munich with Alaba and Lahm tucking in. And now at City you see Walker and Cancelo doing same when city are in possession.

But here's the catch: You are taking a huge risk using this system against a team with pacey attackers & visionary midfielders like Eriksen and Bruno who can play precise passes into the half spaces & behind. United's goals all came from balls played into spaces. Specifically, Anthony's goal came from the space vacated by Zinchenko because he tucked inside.

City suffered against Newcastle as well partly to this until Pep switched it up.

Arteta should show more tactical flexibility and switch things up depending on each opponents strengths and weaknesses.

Overall, Arsenal played really well. They look well drilled. Just a little naive tactically. But a good game nonetheless. Hopefully they learn from this.

wasted space and not even a visitors toilet?
With adequate space and resources, what's your ideal floor plan for a 3/4 bed bungalow?

Bearing in mind all the factors like zoning, security, privacy, etc..

Martinez39s:
Guardiola shouldn't have sold his former players. All he needed to do was give the squad a stern warning to be clinical in front of goal and drill them in training. The 2021 ucl final loss was his fault and the 2022 ucl elimination was due to his players not burying the game in the first leg.

If Haaland doesn't click and the defense of City doesn't get better, I see nothing for Man City.
A lot of you are so reactionary. Sometimes football just happens. Has nothing to do with who's sold or bought.

Two set plays, two goals. You cannot control that.

His fees are high. I spent lesser (400k) plastering my 4 bedroom bungalow in Benin. This includes both supervisor fees and labour for the job.
The guys who did the job were from Cotonou and I was very pleased with the outcome. If I have met them directly, I would have spent lesser than that.
I can also help you with their contact if you won't mind.
Even for my pop, my engineer told me it would cost me about about 1.4m. I met some Togolese guys, working in an hotel, after taking their leader to my site, he gave me an estimate of 800k with beautiful designs.
Please let me have their contact. Both the plaster and POP guys. Thanks

MrOkenwa:
The difference is too significant bro. There are good artisans that can do great jobs for you. Besides, you're building a simple structure. Bungalows are not usually complicated to build.
You can get some contacts from redgem. she's willing to assist you. Negotiate with artisans and ask him to supervise them. Pay him for each supervisory job done. Although, he may insist on using his own team.


Don't overlook extra costs in construction. They make up huge sum when put together.
Thanks a lot boss. I will do as advised.

Thanks to everyone. ��

You can see the figure I gave you plus labour wasn't even up to engr labour charge alone!!! But it's a small unit get a good electrician to handle it for you . Work with the price I gave you as benchmark. Good luck
Okay bro. Thank you.

MrOkenwa:
Workmanship alone?
This is too much for workmanship alone. Maybe his supervisory charges made up the rest sha.
What I will pay in Abeokuta;
1st stage plumbing shouldn't be more than 50k (I'm being generous here and I'm assuming that there are 4 toilet/bath with 1 kitchen)
First stage Piping for this size should be 40k. I don't know what he's insinuating by using the word "complete"
Plastering...I won't pay more than 300k and that's if they're doing an extraordinary job.
About 3 weeks ago, I paid 500k to plaster 3 units of 2bedroom.
I paid about same amount to plaster a slightly bigger structure in June.
Note: these are for direct labour. Engaging an engineer will cost more. I would still suggest that you engage one though.
Yes bro. It's the supervisory charges. But it's still too much, which is why I brought it here for you people to help me.

I wanted the engineer to handle the plumbing, electrical and plastering. Reason I still engaged him after the carcass was done. But now I'm beginning to think that this will come with a whole lot of extra costs.

8 bundle of 20mm pipe @ 10500= 84000
1 bundle of 25mm pipe @ 12500
3 pack of 20mm coupler @ 1500=3000

2 no of 6x9 adaptable box @ 1400= 2800

6pack of 3x3 box @1000= 6000
7 pack of 3x6 box @ 1000=7000
3phase D6 DB havells @ 56k


this is a rough estimate.. you might add or remove depending on number of your sockets point, and also ac & water heater point.
Thanks a lot boss. Any idea on estimated workmanship please?

Anyone who has gone through these stages recently should give me an idea of workmanship costs please.

It is very much okay to have a Masters bedroom with the arrangements you mentioned. The only problem is that it requires you to spend extra for 1 additional exit door Instead of the usual 2 doors exit for a bungalow. Thank you.
True. Extra cost.
But I guess it's worth it.

Thank you.

(1) You must not pass through your living room or dinning before you enter your lobby to your bedrooms. I wouldn't want every guest to determine who I accommodate by mere visit neither will I enjoy to-and-fro transit of individuals when I eat in the dinning. That's just me please.

(2) When I am in your living room, I should only have access to the lobby leading to the bedrooms through a door in the ante-room (waiting room)........The only access I should have from your dinning to your lobby should be through your kitchen.

I see houses that have anteroom directly leading to living room and dinning and straight to lobby and bedrooms as archaic or 'old fashioned'. That's my opinion please, sorry if it offends you.

Thank you.
You are right bro.

I also have a question regarding the idea of a masters bedroom having a private entrance and porch. Based on your personal experience or mere hypothesis, do you think it is a necessity?

Example below.

Yeah. First one is bigger and better. But I doubt both would cost the same to erect.

Both are very elegant designs, only for those who have seen modern house designs. You can go for it if you really like it. The costs can only be clear if the building plans are out, actual sizes of a building helps in clearing some issues for costing.
Okay. Thank you.
