Pls can anyone advise Comparing a 4 bedroom bungalow and a four bedroom duplex, which is most expensive please |

Aremu01: Duplex is more expensive, the cost of decking would go a long way to do a reasonable work on bungalow. 1 Like |

Aremu01: The answer is in the question. Bungalow and duplex. Definitely Duplex is more expensive. |
Re: General Topic Thread-To Discuss Anything And Everything in Building Construction by Aremu01(m): 2:11pm On Aug 09, 2020 |
Thank you @folmus and omanzo02 I think I asked the wrong question. I was just thinking if the saving from the roofing of the duplex will offset some the cost of the decking. |

sako28: The picture below shows how close it can get to the ceiling noggins. The 2nd picture show it’s less than 7in drop from the slab so we were able to achieve 3.1m headroom. You can see the boards didn’t drop beneath the structural beams. 1 Like

This here is correct but you kept saying before that there is no other tax compliance required other than what you called "property tax" (whatever that means) Taking it from here and to clarify from my personal processing with the Eti-Osa guys and LIRS... Yes, LIRS will take the opportunity of your pending building approval application to ensure your INCOME TAX is up to date for the last three years up till your year of application. If not, you will be accessed a lumpsum fee to be paid. That is communicated via one of the letters as you rightly mentioned. And yes, one can challenge that but you really have to have a good basis e.g. proof of your income and tax remittances... this is where folks in diaspora or with tax record from outside lagos get stuck. I have been in that situation and got someone locally to do some running around...we got a reduced assessment, created LIRS account and paid directly into the govt coffers. By the next time i had to process building permit it was much more easier due to the payment history. So, the tax clearance from LIRS is to confirm your compliance with statutory income tax requirements either as an individual or as a corporate org. Oliran: 1 Like |

n3xt: I am thinking of using plaster board for my ceiling but have the impression that it is far more expensive than POP - But your analysis here is showing that it is quite competitive compared to POP - In summary, is it cheaper than POP? Overseas, they hardly use POP - They use boards mostly. |

kingzsoul: 1. Bungalow or duplex ? 2. If duplex attach the structural and mechanical drawing. 3. What is the condition of the land? 4. Do you have stumps or trees in there? 5. Do you have well in there? 6. Must it be or do you prefer a very high foundation? 7. Are there some old blocks parked there? 8. Do you you wish to have a step-up or step-down lounge or dining? 9. Is the proposed site remote from the usual town? Dubemcapital |

Focusmind: Far, far cheaper. Let’s compare Apple with Apple now. Let’s assume we want to cover a room (3.6m x 3.6m) plain design with ceiling rose at the center. Using POP POP - N4,000/sqm (material and labour) 3.6 x 3.6 x N4000 = N51,840 __________ Using Plasterboard Each board is 3.6sqm Total coverage area is 12.96sqm That means we need 3.6 boards to cover the room. Call any supplier online and ask how much is a plasterboard of 3.6m x 3.6m x 12mm N6,000 x 3.6 boards = N21,600 Buy 1 bag of POP plaster for cornices, screeding and installation - N5,000 Let’s make it pro! Buy angle, beed and screw etc for the installation. Each is sold at N450 Buy 20 pcs = N9,000 Plasterboard installation is done 400 per sqm. Multiply by 12.96sqm = N5,200 Screeding is done shikini naira pere. N3,000 So pros in the house, what have I missed out? Please kindly add it. Let’s stop scaring people. Plasterboard is cheaper than N4,000/sqm POP I just completed over 1,000sqm installation so I know what I’m talking about. The most interesting part is this can be achieved in one day once your materials are ready. Edit _______ I noticed I omitted the cost of casting the cornice and other small POP installation materials. Let’s add N7,000 It’s still not expensive than regular POP. 7 Likes 2 Shares |

kingzsoul: Your foundation type depends on the nature of the subsoil of the area you are building. Get a structural engineer to design the structure. He / she will recommend the appropriate foundation type. This is what will be used to cost your foundation. |

EgunMogaji2: Agreed. Those sheetrocks for both ceilings and wall demarcations makes the work look so simple and clean. With the analysis of @n3xt, I think I will weigh my options in next build. But I will do plenty due deligence first o. Oga Egun, please keep us posted on your installations using plasterboards or sheetrocks. Hajji M. 3 Likes |
