MrOkenwa:

Please keep us posted once you decide on your interior doors.
Oga michlins has good designs but I don’t really know why it’s necessary to mount those heavy things at the entrances to the rooms. Look somehow to me.
heavy is the head that wears the crown sir.

Those doors are meant to secure your home while also making them beautiful. They are made to last as long as the building stands. That's what I bear in mind making them. You don't want to buy something with your hard earned money and still worry about durability. Present day finances requires that we spend money once on investments then reap the interests with peace of mind

Rotech is wonderful, truly one in a million! He and his team built a small farmhouse for me earlier this year. Efficiency, honesty, quality materials, and excellent workmanship and project are skills are words that instantly come to mind when I think about how Rotech and his team performed. In 24 days the house was built, Biodigester installed, plumbing completed, and bathroom and kitchen fixtures, and windows were in place. All in the neighborhood are in awe and I have received so many compliments on this build. At times like these, the words “thank you” do not seem impactful enough so here is thank you times 100 sir. Keep it up.

It depend on location, dept and how wide it is, my brother constructed one and its almost close to 500k. Perhaps due to the fact that we planed to use the top for car park, which make us erect column, beam and solid slab.

Hello gurus, please I was quoted almost 500k for building a septic/soakaway. Is this a fair price?

Some people do use the panel door as internal doors.

In fact, I saw one in a property in Lekki Phase 1 yesterday.

I'm about getting doors for my house. Total of 22 doors.

I've gotten quotes from different people based on different materials (wooden/Metal/steel) and pattern (flush/Panel) MDF, HDF, Turkey, Chinese, Skin door, Mahogany etc.

I'm still thinking of the option to go for

one thing I always tell prospective home owners is that good LOCALLY fabricated doors are not cheap. most people beleive it should be cheaper since it's locally made hence they prefer the foreign doors. meanwhile the foreign doors that are same quality as our locally fabricated door are More Expensive and they still prefer the foreign to local.

hdf door is a solid flush door hanged with 3 hinges if constructed properly

the skin door is lighter and less expensive

most people won't even go near akala or mahogany polished finished door cos they are more expensive and labour intensive.

Local doors are fabricated with imported boards (MDF, HDF, MFC) layers.

it's your budget that determines your choice of door. I can assure you there are quality local doors in Nigeria at reasonable prices. it's either price over quality or quality over price.

How recent was this? I don't have any intention to park a car there. I just want it to be safe enough for children to walk on or even play over.

Location is PH. I think the dimension is 8*10 and 11 feet deep or so. I'll confirm that from the engineer.

But here's the breakdown:

1. Digging: 32k
2. 300 pieces of 6'' solid blocks @250 : 75k
3. 25 bags of cement @2700 - 67.5k
4. 35 length of 12mm @ 2300/length - 80.5k
5. 7 length of 8mm @1300 - 9100
6. 1 trip of sharp sand - 27k
7. 1 trip of plastering sand - 28k
8. 1 trip of gum sand - 28k
9. 1 trip of 3/8 - 29k
10. 1/2 roll of binding wire - 5k
11. Iron Bender - 30k
12. Labor - 70k

Total - #453,100
I noticed there was nothing like carpenter here. So, this may even be higher.
Re: General Topic Thread-To Discuss Anything And Everything in Building Construction by JustCryptos: 7:45am On Jul 23, 2020
I also want to ask. Has anyone attempted to use this biodigester instead of a septic/soakaway tank?

Does it work? What's the durability and cost implication?

That is one of the reasons why I like reading your posts.

You always tend to know how to get things done well and at very reasonable cost.

I was laughing here yesterday when some people wanted to argue on the possibility of achieving a block of 4 flats below N30 million, excluding land cost.
