Hello I have been following your work on UA-cam for a while now. First of all I want to say thank you for sharing your talent with us and being very transparent with what you. So, are you saying this project has cost approximately $16,000 dollars from foundation to roofing? My second question would be, does this include materials and workmanship for the various things like plumbing, electrical etc? I am based in the us and my project (8 bedroom apartment building) in Sierra Leone cost me so much. Thanks I hope to get your feedback.
Are you sure this is recent? with the high cost of materials? I have in-progress now a 5bedroom budgalow. parabet alone has taken more than 2million plus while the roofing cost above 6million. Am not breathing well with this your analysis because mine has cost more than this already and it s not a duplex but a 5bedroom bungalow. biko reply this comment because I am not breathing fine at this moment. This your cost is way below what I have spent so far.
Guy what are you doing please go and change your workers they are scamming you my house roofing is not even close to that. I'm building a 4 bedroom bungalow I roofed it and still roofed my boys quarters and a shop
This project started in November 2023 and we just roofed it ending of January 2024... the cost is realtime ... so sorry about your project sir. I guess something is not right somewhere...
@@oluchigladys8922 things vary from State to State but not by much. 6 million is too much to roof a 4 or 5 bedroom. Im in tilling stage now ive called my tiller but I will still go to market and bargain price, dont trust ur workers when it come to money they will rip you
Definitely sir, unless is way too big… this project was roofed in January this year… if you could give us the approximate dimensions we will confirm that …
Awesome!! Please, I need to know if the cost is recent with the current economy or ... I am ready to start my project in PH. Please I would like us to discuss.
The project started in November 2023, of course some costs have changed till date but that is what we spent to erect this building from November 2023 to today- February 2024
Cost of materials went astronomical from mid-January. This project isn't a reflection of the current cost of building now. Cement was N5000 in December 2023, and by January , it was 12000. These online builders should be entirely honest before they cause distrust between owners and their engineers.
He is honest. The cost of cement was not the same that time as it is now. Now it is 7k plus. We built our house 2 years before this one. The cost of cement was not high that time still the builder cheated us so much because we were careless to completely trust him@@afrikanheritage99
Maybe due to the rise in cost of building materials … for instance, you can attest that the cost of 12mm rods is not same as it was last week. Your labour depends on your bargaining power … I didn’t spend up to that on labour …
Yes sir, how big is your project sir? And where is the location??? These could affect the cost: 28M should have, decked the building and gotten you to roofing stage … even if roofing is not inclusive … unless the project is very big…

@@UmekRealestate oh ok, I have a plot of land in lagos and I intend to build a 5 bedroom family house and it will need a bit of sand filling so I guess the price will be most likely higher than what you mentioned in the article. Thanks for your reply.
Oga thank you for your comments but if you watched previous videos you would have gotten all those details... this video is just to give the total cost and a break down of the cost...
@@rtdmyrs8030 You have the right to either believe or not whatever you want… But don’t say someone doesn’t know what he is saying when you are the one who is not sure… always verify… the project started in November 2023, and the costs you heard here are real and the exact cost spent on the project…
Ok, then, challenge us with a project, let us give you a quote and if we don’t deliver, we can come back here and finish up the argument… in any case, you are entitled to your opinion…
Can you do a project in Asaba, Delta State?. I want to commence a 4 bedroom duplex. Let me know if you can. Thorough supervision would be required as I am not in the country.
He is not deceiving anybody ooo. People pay attention and avoid being duped by contractors. I know this because we finished our house about 3 years ago. Looking for somebody honest and knows how to design a landscape for the house
Great Job, Gentlemen. Keep up the great Job

@@UmekRealestatewhich state do you stay?

6 million is too much to roof a 4 or 5 bedroom.

Dear Umek, with the present dispensation, would you be able to roof a 5 bedroom duplex with same stone tiles for 6 million Naira in Imo state?
Definitely sir, unless is way too big… this project was roofed in January this year… if you could give us the approximate dimensions we will confirm that …

Good day engr, the cost you mentioned I assume doesn’t include the cost of labor?
It is material and labour as at the time the project was done…
Budgeting to spend over 2.5 on parapet alone. 😢 how was yours 1.something? Abeg gimme tips! Labour alone for the stage is collecting 450k
Maybe due to the rise in cost of building materials … for instance, you can attest that the cost of 12mm rods is not same as it was last week. Your labour depends on your bargaining power … I didn’t spend up to that on labour …
Please, what do you think of polystyrene parapet? Some are of the opinion that it is cheaper and as good as concrete.
I have heard about it but never used it… I will have to do some study around that before I can recommend or not…
@bertramanunobiajoku6057 did you eventually opt for the polystyrene parapet? I am considering same for my project.
@prince4adventure Not yet, but seriously considering it. I also need an experienced installer.
@@bertramanunobiajoku6057 where is your project? mine is in Owerri.
Good job, how much can someone use and roof 5bedroom bungalow.
Depends on many factors, kind of roof, shape of building, height of roof and all
If i buy materials how much will you charge to take it from foundation to this level?
Depending on the complexity of the building, between 5.5-6M
Please what is the highest of the kingpost ft
About 4.6meters
@@UmekRealestate thank you sir
Pls can i get an estimate of 5 bedroom duplex considering the increament of building materials.
Prices change everyday… it is better to ask for prices when you are ready to start… to avoid surprises …
Please total amount of everything is how much
How much could you use in plastering this house now?
Will be stated in the next video
How do I reach you and what part of Nigeria do you cover please?
Phone number on the screen, WhatsApp same number, email umekrealestates@gmail.com
I guess this building was built in northern part of the country
No, why would you assume so???
I have spent almost 28m now only got to decking stage, are you using recent cost sir ?
Yes sir, how big is your project sir? And where is the location??? These could affect the cost: 28M should have, decked the building and gotten you to roofing stage … even if roofing is not inclusive … unless the project is very big…
Please what will the cost of 4 bedroom duplex be like. Just a rough estimate Please. Thanks
Depends on so many things ... we need a measured drawing to determine that...
It will cost between 50m to 55m Naira
@obinnajoseph3789 the carcass or including fittings?
@@obinnajoseph3789Not so
Where was this house built ?
IMO state
Why such a high roof if I may ask ?
I just want to learn not because i want to critic
Stone coated roof tile has a minimal inclination angle which must be achieved for optimal experience/performance of the roof…
@@UmekRealestate
Thanks
Is that the cost of both materials and labour work? Its very similar to mine. Have done 18m without parapet yet.
The cost stated is material and labour
Please was this project done in 2024?
The project started November 2023 and we are just at finishing stages now…
For where? This may be 5, 7 years ago cost
@@rtdmyrs8030 unfortunately you are the one who doesn’t know what he/she is saying … however, you are entitled to your opinion… which doesn’t change the fact…
Where is this place located
Imo state
Wow
Was this a build on a sand filled land?
No...why do you ask???
@@UmekRealestate oh ok, I have a plot of land in lagos and I intend to build a 5 bedroom family house and it will need a bit of sand filling so I guess the price will be most likely higher than what you mentioned in the article. Thanks for your reply.
Hello
Please do you cover Lagos?
Where is your location, please?
We are in Port Harcourt but can work in lost locations in Nigeria
Total of 23,224,980 at the roofer stage. 😢
That’s correct …
you are too much,God bless you
Thank you
That is not the real-time cost you could have stated how many blocks, cement gravel, trips of sand, etc
Oga thank you for your comments but if you watched previous videos you would have gotten all those details... this video is just to give the total cost and a break down of the cost...
@@UmekRealestateno mind that guy you do well. Let him go and get his own QS
When people are duped so much it is difficult for them to believe the truth
In my project, before decking, I have spent almost 21m
How big is the project? Is it a raft foundation ??? Ordinarily, it shouldn’t by any means, get up to that…
Umek I think your stipulated cost is for only workmanship excluding materials
@@princebasoah6391 No sir, it’s for material and labour … and it is verifiable
The person giving this cost does not know what he is saying except this is a very old video.
@@rtdmyrs8030 You have the right to either believe or not whatever you want… But don’t say someone doesn’t know what he is saying when you are the one who is not sure… always verify… the project started in November 2023, and the costs you heard here are real and the exact cost spent on the project…
I wish we knew you before building our house
I think you're deceiving people with this wrong info..
