If you are in a dilemma on the cost of constructing Roof Parapet for your building, or your building is located on a loose soil, I will advise you to go for Polystyrene roof parapet due to the following reasons. It is Light in weight It is cheaper compared to concrete (that is it eliminates the cost of wood form work both material and labour, less reinforcement) It is faster and easy to install. It is Neater than most parapet as it has been formed using a machine. Please house, Is it advisable to go for this kind of concrete fascia as against building it together with the house? I kind of prefer this mainly because it is neater and of course cheaper but my architect is discouraging it saying it is weak and cannot support the weight of the roof as such can fall off on the long run. What is your take on this? |

It's a dry land |
Re: General Topic Thread-To Discuss Anything And Everything in Building Construction by bixton(m): 12:31pm On Mar 04, 2021 |
n3xt: Certainly you don't need a dedicated staircase for such. It's just positioning of the pent floor staircase extending the final landing while you have the doors for both entry to master suite and tank section on adjacent sides. I'd really love to see this floor plan. |

michlins:Interesting, why people from diaspora are always the victim. Many people believe the pick money on the street. I can assure you even when many of those people that think that way, get opportunity to visit the pity them. Imagine working 2 jobs at the same time, just to survive. People will seat home help you calculate the exchange rate not knowing the way people earned dollars is different from naira. No one I repeat No one gives anything free there you most work extra and more extra to get anything extra, people lives in auto drive day in day out, because their life style is set on bills and taxes that will never stop. 4 Likes 1 Share |

Nice learning and following the advice of great contributors here. Please, what's the current price of doing POP with material? We are currently mad at our Engineer. We entered into contracts with him in September 2019 for our four bedrooms duplex. We accepted his quotes. His costs are inclusive of materials at every stage. Now to do POP, he told us that the 4000/sqm charged for POP would not stand again and brought a ridiculous 7,500/Sam for POP. We want to know the average rate the market is charging currently for POP. Mind you, when the money for POP was given to him then, he went ahead to purchase doors and installed water overhead tank carrier, saying those ones should come first. Now, he saying he can't do POP again as the 4000 per Sqm earlier agreed cannot stand again. 2 Likes |

GoodFaith: Thank you Goodfaith. I am also interested in this cost per sqm We are paying the POP inclusive of material, which is charge per sq m and not buying the materials itself. I want to know the cost/sqm for POP for my build as well |

kopell:sir the truth is that an average Nigerian is ill or not informed about the true reality of life abroad. To majority of us here in Nigeria, Yankee is a place of glorious tales where money grows on trees. To most people, you work per hour and you're paid in dollars. You convert the dollars and money don full everywhere. So he or she will have zero remorse in milking his brother or sister based in diaspora. And you people aren't helping matters with the way you answer to every cry for money. You give the impression that money is packed and waiting to be spent. It is well sha 9 Likes |
