@chekitaut thanks for your response. Please do you know of a good builder/engineer that can do the job in benin city Edo state? Also, i learnt that 2050 blocks might give more than 2100 blocks because of the halfs. Would they also be charged at 50 naira or not charged at all? Thanks |

Adedward: If you check very well 150k is not too much (140-150 is a fair price) If you go by counting N50 *2000=100,000 Nature of the ground determines digging let say 25k Blinding 6 labourx3000=18k Builder suppervion ? Total without builder charges 138k 3 Likes |

Chekitaut:I understand. Do we have that kind of wood here in Nigeria? I am not just talking about finished product but raw ones from the forest. Let's assume that the wood I am talking about is called Nairaland wood from the forest... do we have it in Nigeria as well? |

Teebawse: PLEASE DONT BUY those Doors. They look so beautiful on the outside (and most of us like Aethetics) but it is useless on the inside. I bought them for 22k each in Lagos, at Mushin, just behind Odi-olowo market, after sime bargaining since l was buying many. We needed to reduce the size of one of them because we did not want to chisel a wall and that is what led to our seeing "the inside" of these doors! The inside is nothing but ordinary cardboard papers! yes, you heard me right: Cardboard. The cardboards are about 2" in width and are folded in a wavy pattern and then the two 'beautiful' sides are gummed to it but in terms of strength and safety, it is of zero value. I replaced all the ones l bought and gave these Chinese ones out at 10K each, just to recoup some cost. But if you are in doubt, buy one first and open it up...then decide 3 Likes |

Daboomb:You are absolutely very correct sir. Someone imports them close to my factory and they come to couple them together there. A well placed kick would destroy it. |

americanson: Hardwood flooring tiles are used for flooring in the U.S. It is simply layers of plywood that are glued together in some cases.(Not sure if it is in Nigeria, but I know in Primary School we were told plywood is gotten from Sapele). Laminate flooring tile on the other hand, is simply a image or picture of wood that is glued to a fiberboard or plank. Laminates nowadays look and feel like real wood, but it is just a high quality picture of the real wood. Hardwood are very durable but cannot be installed in bathrooms or areas of high humidity because they can warp. Laminates can be installed almost anywhere. 1 Like |

Re: General Topic Thread-To Discuss Anything And Everything in Building Construction by rotecch77(m): 8:58pm On Dec 03, 2018 |
Chekitaut: NO, each stages cost is separate but all must be together as a quote since the OP is talking about fence here and no separation of the work from the OP. He only mentioned that 2 sides of the land has been done before. So Diging, blinding all is together for that 150k the builder asked for. Modified |

americanson: I assume you mean species of trees. There are different species of trees in different parts of the world. Some can grow in almost anywhere while others not so. In terms of use, especially for building, the specie is not the main ish, it is the type of wood. There are different types of wood to do different kinds of things. Hard wood cannot replace soft wood. Wood grain can also determine suitability for different purpose. Now, if a particular specie is required in the US for a job, a different specie available in Nigeria may have same qualities such that that Nigerian specie can be used as a suitable option in Nigeria. However, the real issue here is the quality of wood. Our trees are afflicted with several diseases and other factors that make their quality so low that the American standard of wood may not be available locally. For example, when sourcing an important structural member such as a 6m beam of wood, diseases, age of wood etc would be strictly considered. While in Nigeria, trees are on their own but there, trees are taken cared of. A young boy grows up in a forest plantation, taking care of his fathers trees. 5 generations of his family have been in the wood business, they know what diseases affect their output and the secrets of the business is passed down. The 1st person who started it may not have enjoyed it but every generation thereafter contributes to making the family a dynasty. Father leaves 50,000 healthy young trees, son inherits and makes a fortune while leaving a 100,000 healthy trees, grandson does same and the wood supply only improves in quality and quantity. Meanwhile, i met a young son in Nigeria whom his father left a forest of very expensive trees. This boy wants to go to school and cuts down 20 every semester. He never planted even one but keeps havesting the 30yr old trees his father left. What will the next generation get? Wood is such a good building material but we have no discipline to do it right. 3 Likes |
