HazzanTazzan: *The tiler doesn't need 5 bags of white cement, One bag of white cement is ok. *Toilet floor should be 11 cartons not 16 *Buy 20 bags of cement, the tiler should start with that, buy more as work progress. *78sqm for sitting room is too much, measure your sitting room your self, it shouldn't be more than 30sqm. 600k will comfortably finish the job, it could be less if you are buying Nigerian tiles. 4 Likes |

My peoples, from what I can gather, it would appear Nigerian aluminum profile for windows is costlier but apparently better than imported ones! There appear to be various types mainly Tower economy, Tower standard, Tower quality, and one also called EBM. What are your opinions regarding these - which should I go for in terms of balancing value for money and durability? Many thanks |
Re: General Topic Thread-To Discuss Anything And Everything in Building Construction by diordaves(m): 10:27pm On Apr 03, 2017 |
rabcnesbit: I don't think I'm familiar with Malina. But for doors and cabinet in Nigeria, Mansonia and Mahogany do stand out. Melina may be good quality, if you settle for it make sure it's readily available to complete the job. No use commissioning the job with Melina and then half way through, no more supply. |

HazzanTazzan: From your quotation: The number of "Cartons of Tiles" you will buy for each area of the house (after measuring the area to be covered) will depend on the size of each tile in the carton.... and the number of such Tiles in a single carton. if you know the size of tiles you will be using ( e.g 60cm x 30cm, 45cm x 30cm, e.t.c) and the number of such Tiles in a Carton, you can multiply both to get the total area such tile will cover and then see how many of these size will be found in the floor area or Wall area, for example. He cant just quote 'Carton's for you like that! I smell robbery! 3 Likes |

@ Hazantazan, write obi: didn't advised you to buy halve of all your Tiler quoted for, he only advised you to buy the cement batch by batch and reduce the quantity of white cement. As a matter of fact what your tiles quoted is very correct, expect of that white cement which I believed he did mistake by saying 5bags of white cement, what I believed he mean is 5sachet of 5kg. when I checked the quote I see that you have 4 toilet in the building which means at least your toilet floor will be 5*5ft. so the toilet floor need there is about 11meters, also the toilet wall each of your toilet wall will be something 16meter *4=64meter, more so the size of your room will be Something 12*12 means each room will take 13meter ×3rm =39m add 10pec to each area. same things to others area about cement at least all toilet and kitchen will take like 17bags of cement , rooms about 8 bags, sitting room ,lobby, dining will take about 16bags, add waste to it total 43bags so based on experience the quote is fear enough. but that doesn't mean you can't buy all your materials in batch by batch but remember stress, logistic cost ,time etc 2 Likes |

set2build: Those prices, are they product of market survey or they are the prices you sell them (if you sell those materials)?. It is good to have an idea of the prices but it is more important you link the prices to the sellers/markets (specifics) where they can be purchased at those prices. 1 Like |
