neduboo: I intentionally left those labor charges blank because they are subjective. Now could you point to one item on that list that won’t be needed for decking of a two 3 bedroom flat , no matter the sizes of the rooms? Is it the builder that will provide materials at his own expense for you? |

sonnie10: So for the iron alone. U used more than 4 tonnes of 12 mm which I find too much for a 2 units of 3 bedrooms no matter the sizes of the room. 2.5 tonnes of 12mm rods should do it. U can't spend up to 1M on cement. I bought 20 bags of cement last week for 74k. And this project shouldn't eat more than 80bags. Please let's stop overquoting. I have noticed that contractor always increase their prices alot. Gravel of 40 tonnes is okay for this project. While sand of 60 tonnes is okay. 4 Likes |

[quote author=diordaves post=102959457] Don't mind him That man has not built in the last 1year,I believe. He's far from the current realities of building materials prices. The minute he mentioned 80bags of cement should be enough to deck two units of 3bedroom flats,I knew right there he doesnt know what he's saying. 4 Likes |

neduboo: We've been here before in the past. I'm not speaking for Spyder880. He is more than capable of doing that. I'm just speaking from a position of experience to add to the body of knowledge. For the record; I'm not a contractor. I think you need lived experience coming from a non-contractor. First off, 80 bags of cement? Did you really mean this or is it a typo? Decking (according to code and best practice); you will first of all beam (all-round beaming, so to speak). For a 9" block beaming, that your 80 bags of cement don go. With the beaming process alone, you don dey match two million. We never talk of the decking proper. 12mm rod? You may be guessing from a position of lack of full knowledge of the process. The decking process is a combination of 12mm and 16mm according to the structural drawing. I've experienced structural drawings wey 16mm na half of the rods used. 40 tons of gravel. What's that? Just beaming alone fit chop 40 tons sef. In Delta, we do "Auchi load" plus 9-11 for decking. For gravel, you don dey match half a million with the size I'm seeing in the photos. You can't spend 1 million for cement. Really? As I look the picture Spyder post with the cost, no how, no how wey that decking no go chop reach 230 bags of cement with best practice mix ratio. That decking go chop more than 80 bags of cement my guy. You buy cement for 3,700 na. So even if we say the decking chop 200 bags: 200 X 3,700 = N740,000. Some people buy cement for 4,000. Don't forget that. In most parts of Delta, na women corporative dey do decking as in the pouring process. The women dey charge over 200k sef. Even if na men, it is worse. Before you go come pay tapers and mixers. To deck no be here o. I relate with that 4 million cost with current prices. Decking na sheyge! 6 Likes |

diordaves: My brother, sometimes our people that fail to attach prices to their works here is because of issues of doubt and wrong perception which might mislead clients into believing they were ripped off. But I will get the files for this decking and attach all items bought and used even with the labor cost and transportation. This will be for education purposes only, because many people might be on that stage of their buildings. Thank you Sir. 6 Likes |

diordaves: Oga I have done a similar decking recently. E no reach that Budget. My site is in Lagos. Stop giving builders high blood pressure. I'm not a sadist when I pointed the outrageous prices. I'm also a site owner (maybe Kobo Kobo site owner lol). I monitor my materials and their uses and I can categorically tell u that 2.5M to 3M will do that project.

You don't pass judgement on another man's building project simply because you built a building of that type. There are other considerations that could make the costs differ. Firstly, the size of the decking. Secondly, the structural design of the decking as advised by the structural engineer. Hence, more 16mm rods could have been deployed more than yours. Thirdly, the concrete mix ratio. Fourthly, labour charges in the area of your build. Please when did you do your own decking? What's the size and can we see the structural design only? When we see the information above, we can then appreciate your perspective. N4M is a very fair price for Spyder880's decking based on today's material and labour rates. neduboo: 1 Like |
