Don't wonder...

Buy a land you can afford to build on... But if you must build on a swampy land, do it right..

Goodluck

Well.

That's an unpriced bill.

You're expected to quote for it using the detailed explanation of works (on the left) and the quantities (right).

Add your fees, contingencies and arrive at a total sum.

Eg.
Item E.
600mm thick paving stone laid on......... Etc

308m²

The question is how much would you do 1m² of paving block.? Let's assume it's 550 naira per paving block.

Draw 2 lines in front of the table, label the first *RATE (N)* and the second *TOTAL (N)*

under rage write 550, under total write 169,400 (ie 550 x 308).

Do that for all items.

Add your supervision fees, VAT, contingencies etc

*Final Note*

Your rate should include materials and labour cost

For Item F.

1. How much would you charge to produce 1m of Kerbs (you'll be given the design or propose one)

2. The Kerbs must pass a concrete test (cube test) after 28 days to the required strength stated in the bill.. Ie 21Nsqm

3. How much would you charge to install the kerb per meter.

4. Add profit and attendance

5. What's the total cost of production and installation??

Multiply your total cost to produce 1m of Kerbs by 17m (total length needed)

Goodluck

Sir please can you attend to me here too sir, because I don't whatsap for now please

This roofing must require a specialized Carpenter to get it right. Take note.

sorry to disappoint you - This roof cannot be constructed, a lot of ridges & 'gutters' are clashing, get your Architect to design a new roof...

Prices of survey in this area are expensive... An original survey can cost u 350k but if u can negotiate it, that's better

House, I got a quote for electrical work from 2 electrician to wire a 6 blocks of flat of 3 bedroom each. The major difference between both quotes is, one quoted 16mm load wire while the other quoted 10mm load wire.... What's your input?

not detailed enough

What do you have in each flat? Number of AC? Number Of water heater etc

I made provision for 4 AC on all flat and 2 water heater in each flat, however it will be difficult to calculate the load since it's going to be a rental property. Maybe I will just go with 16mm for the load since we don't have fire service in Nigeria.

I would prefer u get a competent Electrical Engr to do a simple design for u... It will in the long run save u cost & all the loads would have been calculated... U will even save more instead of running 16mm all through... If u need somebody that can do it at an affordable price, I can refer u

A Nairalander member contacted us on this particular thread some weeks ago to do water tank stanchion with the capacity of 4000lts -5000lts with height 38ft to give good water pressure bar.

Fast forward we seal the deal and we delivered as promised.
A good turn deserves another, before we could even finished the job he gave us another job. Compound interlock stone.

Work in progress on that.

Thanks you sir, we really appreciated.
