Good day all. Please i need help, got this bill of quantity from an engineer for the construction of 2 septic tanks/2 soak away with decking. I think the cost is high, what are your opinions please? Is there a recent thread for septic tanks construction here? Thanks all


Labour
Digging of 2 septic tanks/soak away #50,000
Setting of the blocks #48000
Plastering #48000
capenter (without decking work) #32,000
Labour for casting #36000
Welder (without decking work) 16000
To pour the decking of the 2 septic tanks #24000

Supervision #40,000

Total #775,200 + cost of blocks + cost of welder and capenter for the decking.

LOCATION : EDO STATE/BENIN CITY

Digging cost looks good but press for less.

Plaster cost is too high. As from N20k is good business.

N60k for casting and pouring? As from N15k is good business.

Supervision N40k ? Negotiate further.

The height of your foundation(wall) may probably be low.
But if I may ask, does this usually occur when there's a heavy rainfall or there's a water body close by?

From what I can deduced,there is a water body close by.It is a sand filled land.Only one particular self con is having this challenge amongst the units of blocks in the compound.

Add water seal to your concrete mix in the process you have suggested and ensure you try to get concrete into the block holes.

Good morning sir, compliments of the season!! Sir, in case you know of anyone or company that needs a financier for their capital projects between $5miillion and $500million or naira equivalent, please let me know. I am in partnership with some consultants who have financiers available for long term capital projects in Nigeria. And you know, the beauty of it is that once the necessary modalities and documentation are sorted out and the money is realized for draw down on the projects, each party involved in bringing or facilitating the deal between the project owners and the financiers will get their own share or commission as you may want to call it. That is why I am marketing it to you in case you have any information on any project (private or public sector) available to be executed but still looking for funds or financiers.

Also, if you know any company that has applied for CBN or Bank of Industry intervention fund but still having problems to get cbn approval or still having issues in accessing the approved intervention fund, we can take it up for the company and help them handle the intervention fund processes till they get their disbursement.

1. Projects financiers/investors (local & foreign financiers) can finance viable capital projects that worth between $3million and $500million or Naira equivalent.

2. Also, if you have or know anyone who has applied for CBN or Bank of Industry (BOI) intervention fund but yet to make headway. This can be done for clients.

3. Likewise, a BG (Bank Guarantee discounting) and blocked funds (from N200 million) can be done for clients.

bro I feel your plight, in benin city, they have an issue of ripping us off, most especially when you are not around, some time they think just because you are doing a project that means you have arrived, if not for some genuine architect on nairaland I was almost ripped off too, anyway Will write out the two quotation soon, and see why nairaland is the only option for those in diaspora who are building
