Na wa o. Approximately 1.7m up to roofing. This is the same amount some people would have used for only foundation. Then, the 42k, is it for the digging and setting up of the foundation?

iamblest:



We used it all up.no leftovers

joycluv:
Ok. The 12 bags of cement u used for the foundation is it both for blinding and mortar for setting the blocks?
