davodyguy: I am not trying to criticize site supervisors, engineers or artisans, but sometimes, developers (property owners) need to always check price quotation given. I just saved N161,000 over billing by Engineer, thanks to verification I did on Nairaland about the actual cost of timber for roofing. Once you get any quote, please check from 3-4 others and if same in terms of pricing and quality, go for anyone you like 8 Likes |

megacontrol: Not an overkill per say but saves space makes it functional at the same time. Would share a plan I did that solved that purpose soon. Reason for that is this. One bedroom flat is not meant to have so much people in it by virtue of design and space management. So it is assumed that under normal circumstances, the Occupant can as well us one convinence area by way of design and positioning. I quite understand why you feel there is need for it because of our culture of housing so much people in building basically. Just the way we Design and make car parking provisions for a specified number of cars for example. I don't know if you still understand what I mean. However if you don't, I will still find time to share one I did. See the building below. It has owbee occupied 4 Bedroom Duplex, one executive mini flat and a rentable 2 bedroom Duplex. All full options. The mini flat there has the description I have suggested herein. The yellow wall you see in the middle below is the mini flat.

mufutau55: Much appreciated sir. Actually the plan is to have 12nos of this in total in a two (2) storey building. This is purely commercial. Most builders here add that to increase the rental value as it is rented 450 - 500k here in Surulere. |

Good evening to you nairalanders. Assuming I'm to give this building plan as a contract to a mason, how much should be my budget, EXCLUDING MATERIALS? The mason will be in charge of everything from the foundation to the parapet. He's the one to bring iron bender, carpenter and he's the one to pay for every labour involved. How much should I budget? Note; The project is in the Masaka/Uke axis of Abuja. Thanks mufutau55 topsy23 takoro13

Think9ja: Why can’t you give your project to a professional instead of bricklayer , you mean this bricklayer will also supervise iron bender, plumber, electrician, etc, My advise to you is to engage a professional to supervise the project for you in your area there. 4 Likes |

Whatever you will get here is an estimate. Since you are considering giving the job to a mason, it means u are the project manager. So do some work for yourself by going through this thread from the beginning and you will be glad you did! I have done same and I am so happy with the effort while being grateful to all the building gurus in the property section who have taken their time and data to teach us. Think9ja: 2 Likes |

As a tenant, I will like my kitchen to be where the visitors toilet is and my vt where the toilet is. (placing the two toilets side by side is also good for evacuation piping). I will also want a wall to screen the kitchen entrance. Consider placing the main entrance where the window is. Salliet: 1 Like
