₦airaland Forum

This thread is established to guide prospective land owners or people aspiring to own a house anywhere within the country (Nigeria), with my years of experience in construction I have decided to bring to the notice of ordinary person who is not a construction engineer, on how to get value for your money, and also be sure that every dine your invest in real estate worth it. Some construction engineers only cares about how to make fast money from people who have little or no idea about construction. It's so pathetic that I have seen so many client loose a whole lot of money without getting value for their money.

Am going to guide you from Foundation of a building, Block work, roofing, burglaries, and finishing. I will provide you with all necessary calculation you will need to build your house, free service. I will guide u on how to know the total No, of blocks, iron, wood, or roofing sheet that can complete that your dream building.

So many Nairalanders might ask what do I stand to gain? entirely nothing, it's a free service that intends to enlighten people about some hidden secret in construction.

I give an instance! When your engineer tells u that, the cost of roof covering that will cover your building is 600,000 naira, when they have not finished the roof carcasing, believe it or not, he's trying to swindle u off some real cash. Everything about roofing need to be completed and measured before knowing the total number of square meters that will cover your building, especially when using aluminium step tiles, metro-tile, stone-coated roofing sheet.

Do you know that, even as you are not an Engineer that it is possible for u to know the total number of bags of cement that can lay the total number of blocks your engineer asked you to provide for that ur building.
