mountmoriah: I would love to have something like the one on pix 3. Very simple and beautifully crafted. What's the cost implication in Nigeria? |

egoldi01: Which pumping machine is #58000? I bought a semi submersible pump for my borehole project which I did early November 2020 for #30,000. Which one is cable wire again? The semi submersible pump comes with the wire. The wire is even very long and you can't use all of it. Which one is rope 8000? I bought rope for #3000 and less than quarter of it was even used. How many casing pipe did he tell you that u need? Although for my own project 3 and half casing pipe was used and I have to return the remaining. I initially bought 7. The casing pipe I bought then cost #7000 per one for 5 inches. This casing pipe are the strong ones. Very original. Although there are lesser quality one for even #4000. I advice you go to the market and buy your stuff yourself. 9 Likes |

omanzo02: Yea but well galvanised burglary could add aesthetics to it, don't you think? I just love the simplicity and beauty. But can it be adapted going by our topography and climate? |

I have a feeling cement price will come down in the coming days. 2 trucks delivered to me on credit today. Demand is decreasing and the supply is increasing. _______ As we know it, a decrease in demand and an increase in supply will cause a fall in equilibrium price. Now that the consumers are placing a lower value on the product, I foresee the producers/distributors accepting a lower price in the coming days, therefore, a fall in price. 2 Likes 1 Share

n3xt: Boss can you please drop the plaster board's contact? or if you re the contractor, do a comparative analysis between pop ceiling and plaster board ceiling using a typical 12 m² room. As you can see, alot of builders need an alternative to Pop ceiling due to the price of Pop cements...for others like us..we just want to learn. Thank you in advance. C. |

Cindino20: Thanks bro for your question. My plasterboard guy is out of reach for some time now. I’m also not a POP contractor so I might not be able to do exactly what you’re looking for. I’m just an enduser like you and every other enquiry minds here. However, here’s something I do whenever I’m working on POP and many other finishing works that are billed per m² : 1. Get a Breakdown Cost Unfortunately I do not always accept a per m² on most of my bids. I always ask my tradespeople to furnish me with a quote which includes an outline plan for how the money estimated will be spent, and a breakdown of the items it will be spent on. I always encourage the bidder to include his best rates as I don’t like doing too much negotiations. The reason I don’t accept per m² billing is simply because I don't feel comfortable having someone bill a fixed rate for a specific element of the works that is not yet defined in enough detail for him to accurately price. E.g. I don’t like too many decorations on my ceiling (just plain and cornices) but my wife would like us to have quoin, ceiling rose, dome, archs, cornices etc in some part of the project . Despite the difference, we were billed the same amount N8,000 per m² 2. My Build Route: Owner-Builder Approach When building projects get to finishing stage, I always switch mode from a general contractor (a GC) to owner-builder/owner-contractor mode to physically handle some of the finishing work on my own. This means I planned to exclude GCs (and their fees) altogether, and intend to directly oversee all the skilled trade subcontractors who do the actual field work. The whole effort is to save money - nothing more. Given this background, let’s compare costs of installing a traditional POP ceiling (using gypsum plaster) vs using plasterboard in a 12m² room. ________ POP Ceiling POP Ceiling per m² - #8,000 (material and labour cost as at today) POP Ceiling per m² - #800 - #1,500 (cost varies per design) Bag of POP Cement - #10,200 Kg of POP sponge - #3,500 Number of Cornices* / Bag of POP Cemen - 7 (big cornice) Note: smaller cornices can produce as much as 12 pcs per bag or even more. A 12m² room will use maximum of 1.5 bags of POP cement for cornice production. Cost of 12m² room (#8,000 x 12m²) = #96,000 (material and labour) Cost of 12m² room (#800 x 12m²) = #9,600 (labour only for cornice and screeding of a plain design) ________ Plasterboard Plasterboard installation per m² = #12,000 (materials and labour cost as at today) 1.2 x 3m sheet of plasterboard = #7,000 - #9,000 * A sheet of 1.2 x 3m plasterboard will cover 3.6m². A 12m² room will require 3.5 plasterboards (estimated at #31,500) ** Professional installation of plasterboard (including the grills) is charged at 1,500 per m² (newly adjusted rate). *** We are not installing the plasterboards the professional way as it’ll be used as a replacement for the POP boards. The 3 boards will be screwed to the ceiling noggin and held in place with the help of the cornices. The experience of the installer matters a lot here. **** Adding the cost of producing 15m - 20m cornice and the cost of screeding a 12m² ceiling, plus the cost of hanging the plasterboards (N6k max), the total cost of installing a 12m² ceiling using Plasterboard as a replacement for the conventional POP boards will still be #10 - #15k cheaper. 2 Shares

Phylife:I find large glass windows and doors more beautiful without burglary, the plain see through gives it a unique style. Adaptation in Nigeria wouldn't be a problem, they always a have different features than other regular design, with some green around will make it better. |
