Hi All, so its 2023 and prices of building materials/labour have changed a lot...

Should we have an online class here with a new design - or same design and recalculate what it could cost to build a bungalow now

Good afternoon Chief Engineers and Architects

Please can someone assist with a good plan sample for a 3 bedroom flat that's not too complex in cost to erect.
Good linkages, lighting and ventilation.
I've seen a couple here on NL but would love to see more recent ideas.
Plot size is 50ft (breadth) by 70ft(depth inside the plot).

Thanks in anticipation

Chief, I was referring to the prices that I bought my tiles, not the standard practice in the industry.
Why I made that clear was because I somebody gave me his prices in pr sqm too.


Morning boss.... OK thanks

To the Gurus in the house, kindly help me to review the quotation given by a tiler for a 3 bedroom apartment. The workmanship is 250k which is not included in the quotation. Thanks

1. Thanks for this information, please a quick one, based on the following prices you gave, how many pieces are in a carton, for the various sizes you bought.

2. Can you please show pictures of what these tiles look like, and if the tiler has installed any, let's see the job delivery.

3. Can this tiler work in Lagos, that's if they're done with your job of cos.


Thanks a lot, awaiting your valuable response.


GBAM....
U SEE THAT NO1 QUESTION IS THE REASON WHY IT'S MORE PROFESSIONAL TO GIVE PRICES IN M2.

because 10 CARTOON OF GOODWILL 40X40 TILES IS NOT SAME AS 10 CARTOONS OF ROYAL 40X40 TILES (for eg).

Quantity differs....

So, to save yourself the headache, USE SQM as basic of calculating and add 10% waste.

Then tell the seller I need XYZ SQM of tile and let him do the maths... (except you can do it yourself)

Eg if I'm buying tiles, after asking for the price, I ask for the number per cartoon and convert to M2 to know how many I'll need.



TanQ.....

MrOkenwa:


The prices are given per carton, not sqm.


This statement is NOT true sir.... Actually professionals give prices in SQM for tiles... But because it might be complex to the common man, price / cartoon is more popular.

Just a note sir.... To mean he's not wrong to have used a more professional method of quoting.

Food / Re: Can You Eat This? A Nairalander Hunted And Fried Flying Termites (photo) by saydfact(m): 12:34pm On Jul 07, 2022
Harlarbiz01:
I miss eating this flying termites, gone are those days in the late 90s, we are all hunters in the area (Trenches) when it come to this flying termites called Esunsun or Iba as called by we Yorubas, Igbos call it Aku, this termites is said to be very nutritious, so rich in protein.
My childhood experience is incomplete without talking about hunting of Esunsun, snails and fruits, so funny unforgettable experience.
This insect comes out at night following light, sometimes in the early morning when it's still dark.
Esunsun are actually termites that fly, very proteinous and nutritious. Known as Macrotermes bellicosus scientifically.
I won't say much about the peptides and all other biochemical and microbiological information about this insect.

Please what is this type of roofing sheet called. Is it as good as longspan roofing sheet.

This are Zinc and Aluminium roofing sheets - but they're not as good as Longspan.

It's better to use Longspan or Asbestos roofing sheet (IN MY OPINION)

Hi,

I got a 2bedroom flat because the place is close to me and my wife place of work.we couldn't get a 3bedroom around the area cos that was the one we saw at the time and it was not costly.

But here is the problem I have a 19yrs old boy waiting for admission and a 16yrs old girl in ss3 but I don't know how to allocate the 2 bedroom maybe my wife and I should take one and leave the other room for my son and daughter but my girl is already a lady and she doesn't want to share a room with her brother,,am also thinking my wife should share one room with our daughter while I share the remaining room with my son but what if me and my wife need each other.

Where we relocated from we had 3 bedrooms and everyone had his room but because that was the only apartment near and less costly we had to take it.


The girl gets the bedroom and the guy can sleep in the living room - but he still needs to use the room occasionally when she's free....

There's nothing better than doing your German floor - now, we're out of the ground and ready to build..

Hi.. Sorry, I'm a bit late.
Hope you've sorted it out.. If not, sizes of septic tank depends on the space left on your land and the projected usage.

Romance / Re: What My Girl Friend Mum Asked Me. by saydfact(m): 11:10pm On Mar 15, 2022
ndukwechinasa:
I met my girl friend around 2015 but I was not so serious about loving her. Just wanted to make love to her normally or even become a casual friend. But my intentions did not work out as planned we both stop communicating.

Not until December 2020 when I had accident and she eventually came visiting me and bought somethings for me. I was so impressed for the kind gestures. Her care and kindness made me started loving her.

However, this love extended to her family. I always call the sisters and the mum at will. I also visit their village during festivities and their base too. She is kind to me that I can not imagine. I have grown to love her immensely that I don't have affection for another woman.

But yesterday, my babe called that the mum wants to speak with me. I aborted the call and hurriedly call back. I greeted the mum and she responded very well. She asked me not to get upset that she wants to know my intention towards her daughter that time waits for no one and again there are suitors coming but the daughter said she loves me. Finally she will not be happy with me if I dump the daughter in due course.

I just told her that I love her daughter so much and I also have the intention to marry her but she should also pray for me that things work out right for me.

Honestly, I really love the girl so much but I am not financially stable now cos I lost my job two years ago and I have been trying to put things in order as to meet up financially.

What do I really do now?

MATURE MINDS���


If you get a job today, marry her and then lose your job, would you divorce her?

Marriage isn't tied to having a paid job.... Start a business and she wld support you.

Abegi.. Stop giving yourself excuses (using job) - go to the register and have a quiet wedding...

Goodluck
