Please esteemed people on this section

I really need your help on this. How much can run a foundation for a 3 bedroom storey building. Will 200k be enough?

People who have built their houses should please answer me cry and help a hustling sister trying to make it in this buhari régime without a man
@bold A 30tons truck load of granite is around 145k to 160k depending on location...so how much is left of 200k?
No blocks, sand, cement, rods, woods, etc & labour.
This should give u an idea of d amount involved. u are talking abt storey building & not a bungalow.

I am talking of only foundation. I intend building little by little. Got any idea how much it will cost. My land topography is not water logged but your average normal land. Design is 3 bedroom with only the master bedrooms ensuit.

Yes, foundation alone. It could be less than that. I quote figures based on certain factors.

Given the topography you stated, the next thing would be what's the level of your land to existing road, etc, etc.

Hello Nairalanders,
Please I’m in search of unique screen designs for a new structure I’m working on.
The samples I’ve seen are not so appealing and other ones keep coming up.
I know there’s no better stop shop for stuff like that with experts in the house.
I’ll really appreciate your comments and contributions.
Thanks in advance.

You can use 3-4" for your columns,lintels & Beams & also remember to vibrate during casting to take care of voids that can lead to segregation or honeycombs.

You can us Size 5 or 6 for your Slab, it is a plate member & can b laid with adequate supervision so that honeycombing can be reduced to the bearest minimum

I just stumbled upon this Luxury estate, on the Lekki peninsula:
https://lakowelakes.mixtafrica.com

What do you guys know about prices, etc. spyder880 when are we going to have something like this in the East? Are you every going to consider doing something like this? I know there's been some estate work before, but rather than each person buying land and developing individually, would you consider creating an estate as a joint business venture and being the contractor/builder?

skimanski... the modern design reminds me of your work... don't know what your thoughts are on the above...

Size of windows matters sometimes. But if it's regular sized windows you can bargain for #2500 &#1500 . The more the windows, better less bargain.

200k won't go any where....
Blocks and cements would cost more than that...
Sand, gravel and labour.... Miscellaneous expenses, etc.... (except you wanna use mud blocks..
To be on a safe side 500k can b manageable..

I love you referring to Darenyx and in fact we are friends and he is a good man and an helper but does that mean others dont offer a good job because u havent tried them before?
Look odd to me.
I have enough contact already but nothing can be enough anyway.
Money is not the issue but the commitment of given the best.
I remember when i fully started architectural business when my first payment was just 15k,I took it not putting money first but today I look back and give God glory but imagine if @all i put money first I might be a 419 in the profession by now offering a bad work but never can that be.
People see the star.
If you know me then you see it too.
Love you bro.
Thanks and good morning

Why I honestly can't decipher what you are trying to say, you really don't need to be too desperate.. it's an open forum and people with mutual interest can recommend whosoever the feel like, trust me there's more happening with people on here than what you see on forums, posts and topics...

500K?
But she stated she is proposing a storey building, meaning d building will carry upper floor. If u are referring to a complete foundation with german floor, then anything less than 1.5/2m may likely not work.
