can anyone advice me on this issue.
Do we run any risk doing lintel on our small 3bed bungalow with a 10mm rod. we intend to chain the entire external walls.

Suspended ceiling is different to other ceilings. Because of the iron required, plastering shld come before ceiling so that there won't be any space between wall angle and wall and to reserve the quality of wall angle that could be damage by non smooth surface.

I would like the ogas like haji to say something

Please I have a builder working on this building. But the decking estimate he gave to me is frightening.

I need someone to help me do a rough estimate so I can compare and be sure his is realistic.

I won't mind changing my builder if i found out I am being swindled.

Please don't send me private emails. Post your estimates here.

Hello House,
Please kindly assist in checking my floor plan.
I intend to commence building soon but i have a hunch about the design.
Available space is slightly below 50 by 50 feet (Needs to be managed).
What can i modify?
Is the ventilation good enough?
Is the ante room even necessary?
Should i reduce the size of the rooms?
Why do i need a walk in closet?

megautche:

Hello Guys, need your opinion please.
I'm currently working on a project, which is 2-bedroom flat into 8 , and one bedroom apartment (room, kitchen, bathroom, dining, parlor) into 4. The plan is, it will be shared into four buildings on the 200*100 piece of land. Each building will contain 2-bedroom apartment into 2 and 1-bedroom apartment ,one.
Attached to this comment, is the bill I wrote down, which my engineer gave me to take the property to DPC level. He calculated it two buildings at a time. So each of those values are for two buildings, details of each building already stated above. And below, is his workmanship, terms as stated.
Thank you!

Good morning saydfact
I'm about laying 3 couches of blocks on my lintel but the builder said he needs 20 pieces of quarter rod. I asked him what the rods are for and he said it's for holding the roof.
Pls is this necessary, and if yes, is 20 pcs not too much. And what other alternatives do I have?
The house is a 3bdrm, 132sqrm
