He wasn't with plum when he was installing it. Standard Operating procedure/Installation standard. Good and quality installations attract many customers

No client will want below average work.
Both the seat and tank is not well installed.
Also the shower pole starting point where the tee tap was connected to the pole is too high.

Try to let’s the plumber know that the work is below average, he should pay more attention to details so that he can gain more clients

Thanks for your insight,..... For labour, The carpenter, electrician and Builder are charging 98000, 49000 and 205000 respectively, the Iron man is yet to give labour cost. I also wonder the extent the lockdown will affect prices of building materials especially woods.

Good Afternoon sir
Please can you tell me the difference between JB, Coleman and purecem wire?

I don't think there is much difference. JB wire and cable is manufactured in East, They started production about 3years ago. But Nigerchin and Kabelmetal have their factory in Lagos
Coleman and Purechem have their factory in Ogun state but very close to Lagos.

I need to know the amount paid to workers on site per day around that area your site is located.

1) Skilled labour (e.g Carpenter, Bricklayer, Iron bender
2) Unskilled labour (e.g people that assist bricklayer, dig foundation on site etc)

For instance, in one of my sites in Lagos, if I'm to pay at daily rate, I pay skilled worker #3500 to #4000 per day while unskilled worker gets #1500 to #2000 per day.

Tell me what's obtainable around your area so that I can get a fair estimate for labour over there.

You should provide more information like;
1) dimensions of the building, that is, the length and breadth
2) Type of roofing sheet you want to use (e.g Zinc, long span aluminum, metcopo, stone coated, step tiles etc)
3) Height of the Kingpost or slope of the roof.

Lastly, where's the project located?

Prices looks fair.

I have looked at your threads and found more of tiles than doors.
If you have a thread on doors then you may point me in that direction.

Thanks all the same.

This is an amazing thread.....

Pls can anyone help with a rough estimate for fencing a 6 plots of land close to Abeokuta Ogun state....I'm considering 10 coaches including foundation
It's a flat and dry land. Estimation would include granite for any stone related job needed for the job if any.

Also, which is advisable between single and double gated fencing, considering the size of the land.

P.s I dont have any major plan for the land at the moment. But I want the fencing done asap after lockdown.


Thanks in advance


I did similar in Omi Adio but don’t have figured handy here. I know it was eye popping, for me.

To cut cost I only did one entry for now but the property is in a corner lot so another gate on the other street will be built in the future.

My advice is to do two gates eventually if not for anything but safety. Yuh don’t have to use the entry all the time.

Good luck.

Hello, is it advisable to start a house project this period or wait till this whole COVID-19 issue blow away. Especially considering price of things. NOW or AFTER. Location is Ibadan

Please start. Don’t buy into the price of things, negotiate.

It’ll be a while before you get into the pricy stuff. For now it’ll be granite, sands, cement, water, etc all local stuff.

Consider talking to @KolaShangOne he’s a builder that’s familiar with Ibadan theatre of operations grin

My standard is Pro N2,500 and Assistant N1,500 but I typically add to it because my sites are deep inside terrain grin
