We are discussing warehouse.

The OP need an idea of what he’d spend to construct a 5,000sqm warehouse.

I’m thinking something between N300 - 400m. What do you think sir?

Jesusssssss
N3xt
Lol
I was thinking a ware house of 3000m3 shouldn't be more than 50m lol.

For example one can use cost by using sheets in stead of break and motar

I will advise you to go for Italian Ariston heater
They have been in existence for years
More so there part i.e element, thermostats, non- return valve are easier to get and replace.

My take on central heater to individual small heater in each toilets is that

Central heater
-to get replacement part for central heater is hard.
-it only require expert to take repair or replacement of part on it.
- ones it’s develop fault all rooms will experience shortage of hot water at the same time.
- cost effective

Big man question. grin

My client used asbestos in 2016 and I think it was odd in midst of hundred of houses with stone-coated tiles until I see far more expensive projects using Nigerite asbestos in 2021.

Reason: Better insulation and sound absorption.

It will be obviously odd, but if thats what you can afford, go for it. Again if your house is next to mine in the same estate " i go dey look you like spoiler".

On the sarcastic side of it, when EFCC start arresting people in the estate, you will be the last person to be arrested.

Basically I will be renting one part of the building, the 2 bedroom section... So i felt its not economically wise to use Gerald for a apartment to be rented

THE PERSON PLANNING TO INSTALL AUTOMATIC GATE CONTROLLER...

This are the factors you should consider when starting the project
1, Try by all means to know the average weight of your gate in kg or pounds. this can be done by weighing the gate materials before welding or after welding by industial weighing machine...
2, The weight of the gate will help you select the grade type of automatic controller you need.. (they ranges in D3, D5, D10) the D5 is normally used for home...
3, Uninterupted provision of point light at one side of the gate the controller will be located
4, Keep in mind the Gate will be sliding to one side when opened.. Adequate stopper should be provided in case the gate over runs it set limit
5, Make sure the controller is well embeded in solid concrete to avoid movement in the gear teeth moving the gate..

keep number 4 in th tip of your finger... Automatic gate na still computer program o... and you know computer gadget get mad at times...that is why they reboot sometimes o..... make sure you provide a rigid stopper that can hold the gate any time the controller misbehave o..

the stopper might be install on the angle rail or the wall...

call me if you need further advice....

A typical naija man by default would always think cost before benefit?

What this literarily mean is that we believe a 10l capacity water heater at N30k is cheaper than a 100l capacity water heater at N120k.

The first thing we always look at is the price tag.

Most businesses understand this simple naija man mentality and this explains why our market is flooded with satchet drinks and daily need items.

_________

On the other hand, we also consider ownership cost and cost of maintenance/replacement.

__________

Lastly, we live for likes while looking for love.

As the poster above me just shared, “I go dey look you like a spoiler” na him push many people to buy what they don’t need to impress the people they don’t like.

“All room en-suite”
“Water heater in all bathroom”
“Turkey door in all room”
“Gerald or nothing else”
“Casement window or better. I’m not doing less undecided

I come in peace o.
Of most engineers and installers do not know how to work with this,
I asked my engineer Two questions
1)Why can’t we use a single Water heater for all the rooms instead of using different ones for over 4 rooms.
2)Instead of using different ACs for parlour, dinning, Rooms, gym/library, office and co (AC already entering like over 10pieces), is it not possible to have a Single AC (I believe this should be possible) that will serve the whole house, we merely need to have control for each room to regulate the temp, i saw such in hotels and when I travelled out.

His response? Not possible for a residential apartment

Today if someone charge me N10k for a job, I’ll pay him the N10k and set aside another N3k in case he need more money.

I don’t have money like Dangote but I don’t do a refix on my personal projects. If I’m not set, I’ll leave it till I’m ready.

I do Spanish tiles. I don’t do “It’s the same thing as Spanish tiles”

I do solid iron works. I don’t do “This one should do it.”

I remember paying my block maker the amount people are paying today to do my blocks 10 years ago.
I can invite you to come and break my walls grin grin

I didn’t pay less and expect more.

It’s not always the fault of the artisans. There’s always a price to pay for quality.

_________

I’m making 2 gates for 2 separate projects. The combined cost of the gates and their operator is around N1.6m

Gate alone minus the installation.

The gate is not going to be the same thing as someone who paid 200k.

Remember I said I used 26 bags of cement to install my gate 10 years ago, I’m on the verge of doing another one again.


Oga next & other pros in d house, abeg I have one quick and curious question for you....can one use 12mm rod instead of using 16mm rods for the top floor of a 4 bedroom duplex?....I mean for setting the block work of top floor after decking?

Looking forward to your feedback.
