olukaygold: Sorry.. But it isn't. Perhaps that what a supplier gives you doesn't make it the standard... Note: knowing the numbers has a formula and calculation, except you're a civil engineer no need to dispute the number. Goodluck

Winniealfred1: What I deduce from his quote is that he's not good at estimating. 1. The quantity of sand for foundation is too small (10 tonnes for concrete and block setting to foundations) - way too little 2. Gravel is Equaly small 3. Cement is high, especially in his block setting to level but 40 bags for foundation is not high... (the other 2 are) 4. His workmanship for foundations is way too little to do the job. (120k to dig the foundations, cast the concrete, set the block and do some filling around foundation) - labour must be cheap there. 5. Labour for block setting to level is high IF carpentry and iron bending work are not included but if it's included, it's not high. 6. He didnt even quote for sand for German Floor, I wonder if he's using stone alone. 7. Workmanship for German Floor is OK. My advice: You can buy your materials, and negotiate workmanship with him. BUT.. make sure there's someone over seeing him... Like an experienced supervisor.. (more important than anything else) Goodluck 2 Likes |

Winniealfred1: No1 - He's not trying to DUPE you (if I use your language) No2 - Why gravel? Close eye buy granite, on the long run, its the better option No3 - Why is he using SOFT SAND? - and that rate is very cheap for it to be SHARP SAND. - Buy sharp sand but I expect it to be more than the 20k he wrote down. No4 - The only workmanship I think is HIGH, is the setting to Level @N300k (but that depends on the details of what he's doing) - ie if it includes him doing the lintels and rebar works inclusive, then its not HIGH again. OVERALL - He's not trying to dupe you BUT I'll advice you have a supervisor that would ensure he uses the right materials where and when he shd. Goodluck 2 Likes |

doncafu: I think the 2x2, the Zinc are not enough. 2x2 shd be reaching about 200. And the 2x4 might be much. BUT ALL THESE ARE GUESSES.... to get something more accurate, you'll need to share the roof plan (dimensioned). Goodluck |

Rany4all: I believe what he means is. There's a concrete space for tank already built on the roof... But they want to extend the height for more pressure... So they'll build the steel work and place it on the concrete slab. |

KIDfurniture: This statement above from the same person that typed the below.
All I can say is Waoh. The primary reason for a building is COMFORT, FUNCTIONALITY before anything else. And you're a project manager with 6 years experience... But only concerned about profit? Yet you condemn Artisans that are also only about profit? Goodluck and no disrespect.... I'm just bothered about the type of house you design.... Don't be angry if my words are a bit hard...

abuuthmaan: 9 by 11 won't fly in Abuja. Also, u can only use 6 inches on the upper floor but use 9 inches on ground floor if it's hollow blocks. If u must use 6 inches on ground floor... Then use Solid blocks and no problem. Goodluck Edit: you can use 6 inches hollow block if it's a framed structure... No problem. 1 Like |
