I don't understand why you chose to use the bold in trying to put an explanation.

We disagree to agree in order to learn. In this field no two persons will build same be it professional or home owner. But what is important is for the professional/contractor build what will outlive the owner at the same time ensuring the home owner doesn't feel cheated.

Lol! Is just a self created provab. I think you can understand now. And this is also an insult. Forgive me. Let me delete it.

rotecch77:


Hey, you don’t need to pass insult to me or to anybody before you make your point.
Pls be civic
Off I’m back out of the issue

Oga, please is never in my system to insult anyone nor you. I didn't insult you sr. I am only a contributor. If you can show me where or how I insulted you I will delete it but before then please don't take my word as an insult is just a friendship statement. Am sorry if any

rotecch77:


Thanks my brother, if you look at it cost of materials cover about 60-70 pec of construction cost, whiles labour and professional charges take the rest 30- 40 pec.

And if you look at it vividly and based on experience you will see that cost of labour are almost the same everywhere now
Labour charge btw 1500-2000.
Bricklayer 2500-3500
Tiler 300-500
Etc
You will agree with me that most homeowners that build good standard houses in villages or remote area now do import there workers from town or city because of there level of workmanship

More so, almost all materials for construction now do comes from city, to the village.

So I don’t see BIG Diff like 60-40 building in village and city aside from cost of land.

So I don’t know how some pep will now think that if you build with let’s say 25m in city.
And have believed that same structure will cost you far lesser than that in villlage like 13m both aside from land

NO PROFESSIONAL will Have that thought, unless what happened in 1877 will repeat itself.

Uncle please stop that.friend You go for your choose and taste. Many factors contribute to cost we are talking about.

I expect Spyder008 to say something about it bcs I gave the experience of blocks from his works which has yielded like 52% less of the cost I could have spent on block only.

My point

timesup234:
There bedroom is around 80k to plaster. 50k wont do it. A two flat of three bedroom will cost you 180k for labor

See another unnecessary argument. The work is already done. Thanks

mank1234:


It's cheaper in my village. In fact, if you belong to a union, other members can join hands and do it FOC.


























I'm talking of mud house

Part of conditions that wouldn't make you argue any body's claim

rotecch77:


Wow that is fantastic, so plastering of both in and out of the 3bedrooms flats with windows dressing and burglary installation less than 50k.
Kudos

But if I may ask how much do you people pay per day for labour and bricklayer in your area plus how many numbers of bricklayer and labour finish the job in how many days

The issue here the secret of your money management. At the end of my post I said some of things are not allow to be said here. And I will totally agree with anybody claim in money spent. When I tell my story is never must you belief me just learn from it maybe it may help you.

Am a cool follower of the House. I don't stay where proudness exist but always belong to argument and debate circuit. One of my ogas in school then told me no perfection in drawing likewise no total perfection in engineering work. Here is where I gain most of the existing experience and standard in building/construction but I never disagreed with the man that want to build with less sum.

Last week, my colleague want to plaster her house but only had less than #100,000. Three bed room bungalow. I told her I can help. She couldn't belief. We stated and finished it today. She was surprised. Less than #50,000 was used for the whole labour work. Some things are not allowed to be said here in this case.

Another 214 9" blks on ground to make it 1050 blks for outside wall. I pray money come and we proceed to 6". 1400 6" is needed.

Another 840blks on ground produced with 29 bags of cement. 35 pcs per cement is not too bad.

It’s not Yoruba juju style just bury several dead dogs

Not that. That is costly.

KolaShangOne:


Termite problem is very very very hard to solve. If there's a termite colony around, destroy it. Mix industrial salt and water and spread all over.

Keep site very clean and free of wood, grass etc..

Even if you treated your wood before, they will build pathways on the wood and wait till the treatment effect wears out and still eat the wood.

Mix salt and water and spread on your land periodically. It is a continuous battle.

I'm actually thinking of a solution to roofing of houses prone to termite attack by using angle iron. Tryng to draw up the cost comparisons.

Spread used tiger battery dust all over your land can do you a favor. The other one I know is Yoruba juju style

Well so far:
20fts @700
Others fts @#1000
3000


Septic and suckaway agreed for #35000 while filling also goes for #30000.

I will share the pxc later

The foundation requires much literate hence we go for well and septic digging. Well is at 43fts with 2-3 fts of water while the measurement for septic is 8*8*10 and suckaway is also prepared. All literate from these went straight to foundation filling.

thank you very much , which other areas has cheaper lands? can gou please contact me on omolabake88@yahoo.com. thanks

Check your mail

YamahaR6:


Do not buy a built property in Ibadan, most of them dig things inside the house, with your budget you can buy a land and build something good for your folks, but please don’t put your family in charge of the building, must the land or house be at airport area? Lands are cheaper in some other places, I live in ib

Correct

Dear Engineers,

Please I need a critical review or criticize this semi detached building plans for me. In addition kindly provide a fair estimate to finishing. Can this plan sit on a half plot of land?

Awaiting your desired and useful feedback please.

Thank you

I prefer you swap dining and visitor's room. I won't like dining away from kitchen. And you relocate visitor's room door to be link directly to dining not parlor.

Chekitaut:
Easy to create hand mould.

Using broken blocks is considerably less to moulding 9" blocks.

Oh, thanks my brother, hope the work is going on fine as planned

Thanks. Some rest is needed. Soon is not late

Oshogbo, GRA

Well done bros, am little busy here. If not I for say make I come greet you

Where are you in osun state. I de ilesa

What is the requirement for roofing this house. 40fts by 50fts bungalow in ILESA osun state. Woodwork and aluminum I mean.

boyestic:
thanks for your help,i was quoted #40k

Ask him to bring it down to 35k

boyestic:
thanks for your help,i was quoted #40k

I can't say what the man mean but can categorically tell you the quoted amount is not too high from the reasonable amount. You can not dig and pour concrete same day. Atleast digging will take two days though the remianing work not be charge for full day. Then you start pouring immidiately you finished digging the second day which may eventually not finished also i mean with six people. That at the end pf the day give you amount more than the charge above.If six people can dig four bed room perfectly for a day that mean we don't need machine in our site again.

joshuachuks:

I am considering using 13 pillars
Then I will chain the building round, the side with the nine block will take 3 pillars with two times chaining one at 5th blocks, the other at 9th block to meet with the general chaining.

No problem. God with you
