Truthinlife: Whenever you want to negotiate a construction job using skilled and unskilled labour use the standard daily pay for skilled and un skilled labour times the estimated number of days it will take them to finish. 2 lazy carpenters must finish a room in a day. Fast and experienced ones will do 1 room each with an unskilled labour. Range of pay for a skilled labour is 2.5-4k. I estimate 8 days max. 2.5k for 2 carpenters is 5k times 8days 40k or 4k for 2 carpenterd is 8k times 8days is 64k. Your range is 40-64k. Can be even less pairing skilled and unskilled. 2 Likes |

most pvc Installer charge 150 or 200 per meter to install . a length of 19ft is about 1.2 meter so a room of 12*12 will cost you about 13meter x200 equal about 2600 to install if the work is many 150 is OK per meter and a good carpenter will do 2 or 3 rooms in a day 1 Like |

mufutau55: After so much negotiation and beggingoooo he has pinned it at 80k. I have told him not to be angry if someone else take the job at 50 or the most 60k. Although he has done pretty good job for us in the past. The leaving room (parlour) is excluded as we want to do POP on it. It's 3 standard room ensuite, one ante room, the staircase and walkway. So I can call it "4" bedroom. |

johnson232:They bought 20 bundles. It's 3 standard rooms ensuite plus an ante room ( so I call it 4 rooms "approximate". The staircase area and a walkway. After much begging he has pinned it at 80k. But I will be an ingrate if I don't appreciate the quality work he has done for me recently. |

chuksjuve: As advised, please start your own thread showcasing your strengths. Pics are good and don't be bashful about your pricing. Serious users will find it if you make it informative and educational. Trust me, that is how a lot of business is generated in this Property section. Good luck. Kindly mention me on the thread so I can find it easily among the dross of advertisements as I'll definitely be looking for such a landscaping service in the nearest future. I might give you a relatively open canvas to work with too. 2 Likes |

EgunMogaji: It's not easy to maintain a thread if you don't have sufficient content, and using Internet pictures alone won't get you far. You need content to keep ur thread from being pushed to the bottom of the list. It needs to be fresh and educative to attract further comments, replies and enquiries. And you need these to get a slot at FP. And you need that slot to quickly break into the market. The advice to open up a thread for marketing might not work well for you at the moment. You can still open a general information / discussion thread about landscaping though . My 2cents. 1 Like |

Greetings to the house. I want to clarify something. If someone is doing only setting out for u due to the complexity of the design, does the setting out not also covers the supervision of the excavation? or it is only marking out the building with woods? Engrs & gurus in the house. Thanks. |
