That's serious you need strict monitoring, they don't want to know maybe you suffer to get the cash or u wait till u come down but this inflation of a thing na wahala.

Since you are not on ground get the quotation with details of the type of wood and iron needed for the casting for both welder and carpenter then let your mum get it all for you, but pls make sure you give the engineer sometn so that all of you will smile together. Never give them money to buy site material because you will be the one to stay in the house to avoid building collapse or shortage of materials. Mine end up selling my cement but he was caught.

ok thanks to you guys. please any of you have the idea of what it will take to do the liltel

let me advice you the way I did my 3 bedroom flat, I took my plan to where I bought the iron rod, a guy there (welder), cut and bind it for at a cheaper price for the whole 3bedroom I think 5k, and I pack it to the site for 1500 naira, have already agreed with the carpenter 12k to do the lintel post+ pillar and the rest, all you will do is to buy the wood, let him give you the estimate of wood needed, go to sawmill and buy maybe 2by12 and they cut it where necessary at the rate of 20naira per one, my brick layer agreed 140k from foundation to roofing. But since you are not on ground just bring the quotation here experienced landlord will guide you, then you pay them to buy it all. It's better you buy the material since you are not using a building contractor at a particular amount,Note: before you view any quotation get a chilled water by your side. God will finish it for you ;Du

the thing the first person i gave money did not bring the first 10trips complete my engineer said so then i have to ask my mother to go and order for 10trips again her self to see if it true to my surprise to guy only brought 7tips and said is 10trips i have to tell the guy to stop coming to the site because i trusted everything to him before

see if you want to build your family must be there or you should make sure you supply materials yourself and allow someone monitor them, that's the fact.

nursevee99:
i ask my engineer to take the block work stage by stage now he said from this foundation to liltel he will collect 140k from me please is the price ok or not please my brother your advice will easy my mind thanks

very ok, but try negotiate to roofing stage to like 160k, I think u will be at the gain side.

nursevee99:
thank you big brother for your quick response they said is 20trips of 2in1 tiper and they need more this is the plane is 4bedroom bungalow

I think that price partially fair ,but what most people always do is to dig soak away and buy few laterite to complete the filling, it depend on the state and site location.

KolaShangOne:

@OP, pls I beg you in the name of God, don't let one marriage terminate your life, most of all this woman believe marriage is an avenue to frustrate a man, I understand all your insinuations, because my baby mama also insulted my mum in my presence, if you die today your kids will be alive, my advice to you is to first secure your life, think of the children and your family then if she is ready to cooperate or change all well and good, some woman do bring alot of hidden trouble to marriage why some are harvest of blessings, marriage issue is beyond love, brain and sense must be applied, talk to her and let her understand your plight let her know this is the time your mum can enjoy the fruit of her labour, but she should always understand you will forever lover her,dont let the children notice the differences because that's another issue, may God help every married men.

[OP said he is building "a block of 4 3-bed flat"! Why are you guys comparing with cost from a single 3-bed flat? Una no do comprehension for school ni?

quote author=ijeshaboy post=48293733]I think OP is been ripped off although I didn't do DPC but the total amount I spent from foundation to this roofing level is around 680 thousand naira, and I only went to d site once because am in far north and the building is in ibadan, the person handling it is not my family member. Note: I never allow him to handle any site material procurement I have those people selling cement and sand number and I mould the block, the only money I gave him is for the iron rod for the lintel casting I used nairaland experience with him althrough. Just concluded it yest.

maybe they just modify the post, I never noticed that, Oga linguist.

I intend to use Alo-zinc, which is much cheaper than both Aluminum and Slate.

One bundle is #15500 and there are 15 sheets inside a bundle.

But, if I can get durable and cheaper Aluminum or slate quotation I will consider.
