China make good materials too! They are just ready to give you whatever you request for base on your specification and budget.

BrabusNG:


9 years on, my Chinese Doors are working great. The only ones that fade are the ones directly exposed to sunlight and harsh weathers.

They still look new.

Thank God for you, you are coming through

michlins:
this is why I usually tell people to use iron doors but they will tell you it's not good for internal doors. Eight years down the line, the only thing you will do on iron doors is to repaint it and you have yourself a brand new door.

Buildings are meant to last and not act as liability. Here's a sample of door that I delivered to oga Spyder yesterday. It was paid for by another Nairalander

Good morning all!!

Please, how much should I estimate for a soak away of 4 bedroom bungalow. Quotation with the different needed items and prices will be appreciated.

Please, is there any new innovation as regards the construction or any special thing I should look out for.

Location is Igwuruta, Port Harcourt.

Thanks.

Hello man, I spend around 350k or less for mine (everything plus decking). I'll have to look at my books to confirm the exact price. Location was also Igrwuruta Ali.

There are two building along chevron, they don't have any setback! they have to use water collector(both house) to prevent exchanging rain water from both compound

lastpage:



Yes Boss, they do.
Infact, if the Building Control Authority were to stick to the 'book values' of Setbacks, most of the Houses (especially those in Lagos Metropolitan Areas) would have to be demolished for violation.

Land is 'so premium value' in some areas, especially old, [b]developed areas that have passed from generation to generation, that such setback values are unworkable.
For example, how many Buildings in Lagos Island, Ikeja, Yaba, Mailand, Ikoyi, etc can boast of this setback-value to the letter?[/b]
Some houses dont even have Parking Space at all, not a single car can cross the Public drainage into their compound!

But these buildings have been granted C/O, using waivers, based on thei rlocation, age, value of land, etc.
Who will 'waste' one third of a land that cost say #200M/Plot as setback or a "quater-plot' of land located in Akin adesola as setback?

The Law is made for Man and not Man for the Law.
Reasonableness will prevail, depending on the cricumstances, as long as the Waiver is not being abused willy-nilly.
The difference between here and yonder is that over there, the Waiver is "official and based on well defined parameters, which will apply broadly.
Over here, the waiver is discretionary in the hands of the Oga-at-the-Top and 'Grease' might be required to keep the machinery of Govt moving, if you get my drift.

Copper pipe for 9500 is much 6500 is a good deal for better product.

Then the 4” pipe of 2500 should be thick pipe of 3-4mm thickness

Also the 2” pipe thick one is 1400 against 1700

Others are very good price

Thanks a lot man.

The bolded part, all artisan and professional should also practice it

diordaves:


Looking good and well made. God bless the Nairalander who paid for this. God bless Spyder880 for giving you the platform to showcase your work.

If this arrangement is further endorsed by Spyder, this may put to rest your business credentials and open up opportunities for more work home and abroad.

So going forward don't forget: Honesty, Transparency, Communication and fair pricing. These are your navigational tools to win diaspora trade including home base. Good luck.

so the 50 naira per block, is it a flat payment to the bricklayer, or to each...since its assumed that each bricklayer will have a helper, so you will end up paying 150k for a fence of 3000 blocks, if flat rate..than 300k if you count both bricklayer and helper....kinda outrageous if 300k, so i guess its a flat rate to the cwhole fence erecting crew.
thanks for chipping in, building ops in nigeria is like a battlefield, almost everyone is out to ''chop'' you!!! . this thread is a lifesaver.

for casement windows, whats the going rate for a 1.2m x 1.1m and 0.9m x 1.1m window with inbuilt mosquito net, no burglary proof iron[/quote]

flush doors like this abi? This is iron door too and there's a way I can eliminate the noise you're worried about

If you can eliminate the noise that will be a big plus to this grade of door , actually I know of high quality door of Nigeria Made used by some big banks in Nigeria without noise and well sealed against water penetration (see attached pic) but it’s pricey.

Also you can fine-tone the finishings to look more elegant( demands/ cost will determines this) but never the less it will add more value to your product.

Very very nice door there.

Does it mean you can't get it if you want it? You said asbestos is better than PVC in your last quote and I said my opinion about it.

I live in Nigeria and being a business man make me understand you can get anything you want. Cocaine is illegal as well but you can still get it even in the so called USA you came from .

EgunMogaji2:


Asbestos is the coloqiual name that stuck. Asbestos has been illegal in Nigeria for at least a decade.

Don't you live in Nigeria? I came back 18 months ago and I already knew this, what didn't you know this as a business owner?

Yes it’s a very solid door.

Are we talking about Asbestos or Cocaine?

My assumption is that adults on here will know that "asbestos" is no longer in use all over the world. I purposefully put the word in quotes. I'm only responsible for what I post and not what you understand.

I know of his great works, unfortunately muyesky is in Lagos, and i would prefer working with someone in the east.

Abolarin91:
If you are to put all standard setback in consideration, you can't have 4 bedroom Duples.

How many rooms do you think it can take? Thanks

Is this door you posted really made in Nigeria or assembled in Nigeria

My brother it’s locally made ooo, when next I visited the guy workshop I will post the real pics from his workshop

I’m planing to get some from him soon.

Probably 3 bedroom duplex. You can consult your architect to work on it for you.

If only you are not going to follow the standard setback, you can have that 4 debroom you want.
Wait for other professionals here to help you out
