It's obvious you are having a "nice" time with your contractor. If you don't trust the contractor, renegotiate the terms, buy your materials yourself and create time to always be present during their utilisation. Don't allow anyone to pressure you, the house is yours and the money being spent is yours, abi no be so?

You have also been advised to share your floor plan with dimensions to aid contributions from the good people here.

Wish you the best in your project journey.

The following are the quotation the welder gave for the lintel level:

Iron rod 12mm 30pcs 12000 per one

Triangle Ring 8mm 6 dozen; 4000 per one

Square ring 10 dozen; 5000 per one.

Bidding half 20,000

Labour 50,000

Please, help check the quotation if it's fair. Thanks.
If you have time u can tell him to follow you up get the material but you will have to find him something to hold body and add like 10k to his workmanship so he can use his mind to do a good job

Buy material ur self nd don't ever allow artisans to buy materials for u.

Look for similar project around you and ask questions from the owner to compare materials required

Monitor usage of ur materials urself or by trusted proxy

Go to the store and price building materials ursel nd u can even send someone to that for u if u trust the person

12mm iron rod is not up to 12k, rings are not up to that amount given you.

Go out nd price them nd buy them urself nd also monitor the consumption.

If the money is really surplus u won't be asking all these questions. Save urself from rippers nd do the needful buy involving urself in all these process.

If u fail to yield to all these free advice and continue to ask questions, u will b surprise at the level of damage done to u financially.


Like I advice u earlier, buy 700 blocks first and monitor the usage.

Ignore whatever anybody is telling u. Don't give them money to buy materials.

Goodbye👋

You have heard the truth. Buy your blocks yourself and other key materials. Create the time. Cements, sands and rods don’t need any specialty knowledge to buy them.
Let him tell you what you are using. Seek clarifications from him where you are not sure. Gather more up to date infor about the material. Enter shop/market.

He will rïp you off. Those people are not to be trusted at all.

Don’t be afraid of any contractor. Na you give am work. Monitor it’s usage, biko.

Guys check out this ridiculously extraordinary outrageous quote for swimming pool. For those who want to construct a swimming pool. The prices in this quote are times 3 of the normal material prices. Beware and don’t fall victim. This period artisans can get really desperate and greedy and will want to use you as an opportunity for breakthrough through the Quotes they’ll give you thinking you won’t have an idea. Well, that’s why jiji is there. Once you get a quote go on jiji to check and compare prices.

Re: General Topic Thread-To Discuss Anything And Everything in Building Construction by floshady02:
Some people in diaspora have been building ordinary bungalow for a year, 2-3 years and still haven’t finished building. That’s because you are getting highly outrageous quotes for materials and allowing workers buy materials for you. There’s no way you’ll be able to finish your house because you are being used as their pot of soup that must never get dry if you understand what that means. When you get a quote, do your research to find out prices before giving anyone your money to buy materials for you. Best is to get your materials yourself. These artisans eyes are fu$&kg red, dem no Dey look uche face. Dem no send you o. You see dem as artisans but they see you as opportunity. Dem go Dey follow you smile but at the back of their mind na how dem go chop you finish dem go Dey reason. Shine your eye ooo my people.

Thank you very much. The POP guy that gave me the first quotation inflated the number of square meters to 120.5 @ 12,000 naira per square meter giving is total as 1,446,000 naira for a three bedroom. I took another POP guy today and he measured it as 96.46 square meter @ 9000 naira per square meter, making a total of 868,000 naira, Even gave me a deduction of 10k and an option of buying the materials myself which I declined . Imagine a difference of over 500k. Some people are thieves.

Remember, a cheaper quote does not translate to quality work.

Have you tried to take the measurement yourself?

Artisans will underquote to grab the job contract only to request for adjustment after mobilisation fees have hit their accounts.

Show your designs to the POP guy and confirm that his quotation remains valid.
