Beautiful house and neighbourhood, well done my sister and best wishes with the rest of the project! ❤
Thank you so much!
Eye opener Thanks Sis Rhoda
You’re welcome . Thanks for the support 😊
I lived in zimbabwe for years before moving to the UK, and one thing learnt is the importance of being on the ground, and sourcing your own inputs. The price disparities for things like gravel and pit sand is ridiculous. I was charged 5 dollars per wheel barrow for gravel in harare...i took a chance and went to domboshava where i got the same gravel for half the price.
Iit cost not costed
Chirungu handi chedu watoita busyka kucorecta grammar mistakes,‘well done ✅
Thanks for sharing a constructive ideas of housing project . I would like to have the plan of that exactly house.
Thanks in advance.
That’s ok I can share 😊
This is so inspiring my beloved sister,actually lm planing to start constructing mine also lm in Dubai lm not on the ground so u noe l was worried ,but this actually opened my mind
Thanks for watching. Again a big congratulations on your project. Once you start the goal is to finish . Rooting for you. Never give up no matter the challenges you’ll overcome all that.
Woooow, Welldone my Sister
Thank you for your support 🙏
Thank you so much my dear for this. I really needed this information. ❤❤
You’re welcome ☺️
Thank you for the useful information - Compared to Bulawayo, labour and material costings seem much cheaper in Harare. My friend used about $13000 for half your floor plan and it was standard foundation type - assuming she was not financially abused as she was not present.
Building in one’s absence is always expensive, like I’ve stated in my last video “what you should know before starting building in Zimbabwe’ there are many ways to reduce costs as explained in the video. Hopefully this will help your friend ✨
@@SimplyRodah Thank you for the helpful info.:)
Thank you very much very useful information
Glad it was helpful!
These are the kind of videos that keep me going l really am looking forwad to build my momma a little house
Thanks please do, good luck 🤞
Hi Rodah your videos are so practical and I can relate with most of it. I hated my builders when eventually they made me buy 7 loads of gravel. For a sec I thought they are not professionals :)
My floor plan is 270sqm and yes, all the surprises that hit esp the compactor one hit me too and. unomboridza katsamwa mbijana kkkkkkkkkkk
Zvinestreess zvekuvaka haa unoita kunga uchafa ne bp 🤣🤣 totenda Imba yapera wena
Always get someone knowledgeable to do you a bill of quantities. It shouldn't be expensive at all. But will save you thousands. Most of builders don't even know how to do it
Thank you for this video
You’re welcome Phil

What’s wrong with keeping quiet if you don’t have anything nice to say? Sarcasm and stupidity isn’t welcome on this channel , Again I am not competing with anyone I’m sharing my journey building my house . There are millions of channels doing the same content as Me, so I don’t know how you decided that I’m coping anyone ? What’s wrong with you ??????
@SimpyRodah do you mind sharing your floor plan
Thanks Rodha,i was looking for a roughly idea of the cost of building a house in Zim
You’re welcome , this is the first part ,check out the next video for the structure then the roofing , the videos are coming out in batches 😊I’m glad you found something valuable in this video.
Yes,i watched the next one on roofing work,thanks a lot, i hope start very soon,currently in Australia .
@Muchineripi all the best, it’s hard but possible, cheering you on for the project to start 🥳
Thank you always get a qoutation from 3 or 4 contractors and compare the materials builder sometimes will skim off the top and the foundation is expensive than the wall as it requires much more material
That’s true.
Thank you for the eye opening information, good presentation. On the next videos yewall structure can you share with us if you used single or double wall and also the roofing materials you used
Great suggestion! Thanks for your advice on the next video
hie sis thank you for the information it opens alot of peoples eyes and i would like to ask where do one find legit land or stands in zimbabwe ...i ask due to sometimes after building land get taken my city council because of fake sales
Good Job well done Girl Looking for a stand in Mabvazuva how do I go around it
Thanks for watching add my instagram I can share contacts . My instagram is Boss_queendah
So much information that is good for people who are planning on building their first home...Next time please structure your script and avoid this going all over the place.
Thanks for the advice. I’ll definitely try to do better next time 🙏
How au sista i love yo content wat advise can u give to me s havin a durawal as first preference an a gate or it must come last need yo advise
Having the durawall first may interfere with material deliveries to your building site. I would suggest putting a durawall after the roof has been installed.
Hi Rodah, first of all thank you!i have a question i need help with. I recently bought a stand and my neighbours have even completed their houses just like at the beginning of your video. When i went to the Council to get my plan approved, i was told that the developer had not been issued with a compliance certificate for the area yet and they could not go ahead with approving my plan etc. I was however advised that i can go ahead with building according to the plan and then once a compliance certificate is issued i can pay penalties which wont be much and then get the plan approved. How big is this risk please advise?????
rodahzhang@gmail.com that’s my email send me an email or add me on instagram boss_queendah the we talk. It’s sensitive matter 😊
Be very careful with that, some houses get destroyed by the municipality. Hope all goes well you. One love❤
Wow! Someone has to move to Zimbabwe, seems building a house is way cheaper than US, UK and SA
Not so complicated for sure,
Well sister the prices you where getting are for someone in the diaspora because I’m currently building as well but my costs are way lower than yours
Can you specify the things that’s cheaper for you and the current prices . Someone can be helped 🙏
My only question is, where on the ground buying these or you were sending money home?
I work in construction and half the times when I asked about the quantities of materials from our builders they do guesswork. It's the materials quantities that builders can hit you hard on.
I advise whoever doing construction to get a bill of quantities from an independent QS.
It would not be very expensive but it keeps things in check.
You seem to have gone so the way but did you put the damp proof membrane (the green plastic) and dpc?
Another strategy to save you money is to only do footings for 230(double load bearing walls). The rest of inner walls should just have thickened slab.
Last tip when you reach window level please please put ring beam. Don't accept lintol.
Ndokubasa kwedu veduwe. Have done some 7 stars hotels...
Thanks for the information, materials were bought on my behalf . The information you’ve shared will definitely help others on this journey and future projects ✨
Do you mind explaining your last tip id depth?
@uncleted3569 the ring beam as the name is a structure that you place as an outer ring of your external walls. It's usually placed right after the windows. A beam is a mixture of concrete plus stream rods to make it strong. Just like what keeps the wall above your verandah in suspension. In this case it prevents cracks which are usually caused by the winds on the roof. They usually crack downwards, depending on the brick bonding. These weaken your house. So the ring beam tend to isolate these cracks and stop them from running all the way to the floor. Secondly they give a stronger support for your roof truss ties to the building. Changes of failure related to bricks is not there
Havana kurohwa mari here amai ava....12k upto slab 😅
@@austinzimba2382 we should not assume things here. A plan should be provided and quantities taken. This is not about opinions but facts
How can l get in touch with you its Kelvin Birioti

Beautiful sofa, where did you buy it 😊
Thank you Chihelele . The answer to your question is question is right in the video, watch the video again 🫣several friends asked me the same question so I’ve addressed it and more information is available in there
@@SimplyRodah the time you spent answering 😄🤣 good followers care
@@chihelele5242😅😂😂😂zvakaoma
@@PaloSant taura hako
Hi,is it true/correct then to say putting up the walls costs more than foundation & slab,I mean labour costs only???
Sorry I didn’t get your question’
@@SimplyRodah Dont worry darling you answered it in the preceeding videos. Thanx a lot😊😊
The cost is hard to believe. The stand was costly and it takes £12grand to get to that stage PLUS labour? 😮🤔🤔🤔
The foundation is the most expensive stage in building , Believe it that amount is even less than what most people spent you know 🤔
You are right, been there, done that!
Things like gravel wakarohwa pasi petsoka l think
I think the box was too high. She could have just made it just 200mm above ground. That looks like 600mm above ground. Filling such a box is very very expensive. You fill it and it gets full, you pour water then it drops to half.
Foundation and roofing marwadzo
Your sofas are beautiful which country is are you residing at the moment
Thank you, we’re in China
My house wall cost were way above the foundation, so l don't get it my sister wen u said foundation cost more than the wall or roofing, or maybe didn't get your points well🤔
😳that’s what I spend on my house ,

Those builders they did also roof for you
Nope the builder only did the bricks work, my roofing was done by a carpenter
Where is this area?
And how much was your stand.
Please advise I need a stand too.
The information is all in the video , I hope you watch the video again . Your answer is in there ❤️
My neighborhood. Well organized.
@clarencemademutsa5352 hello neighbor 😊
That was rude. She did fine.

282sqm
Mari dzikutaurwa apa hatina zera nadzo

U did well sisy
you were ripped off for compact filling you could have used rubble or coal rubble which is free you just need to pay for transportation.
Is it? Next time they’ll not have a chance 🤣
Its nit silab but slab

Please put the upload of the costs
The next video will be uploaded tomorrow
But your clearing wasn't much, that isn't much of a bush
but it was,
Even a stand in SA doesn't cost that much, $26k, be real sister . 😂
Zimbabwe real estate is a pain trust me,
She is telling the truth
It’s all starting to make sense now huh? Your laugh tells us you are almost near acceptance of the reality that is Zimbabwe.
She is telling the truth l'm a Zimbabwean and l can confirm
@@TendaiMaru it’s surreal explaining Zimbabwe to someone on the outside… like, they will not believe 75% of what you tell them.
Zim properties are so expensive though
yes it was
@@SimplyRodah I am wondering g whether to buy in Zim or SA, because in SA it would be value for money
If buying isn’t a problem I’d suggest SA, it can be your investment
@@SimplyRodah and there is a lot of property management agencies in SA.
But to have at least 1 residence in Zimbabwe kuitira kwekuzosvikira
@KalawangomaTawonga exactly. That’s the reason we’re all building in zimbabwe . Panodawo pauti pangu even kutovakira paruzevha chaipo zvitori bhoo
You say too much unnecessary stuff. Learn brevity. We have no time to listen to everything. Go straight to the essentials
Ok
Why don’t you start your on point channel?
Yeah, some people are vile
Hezvo ko rough ndeyei such a beautiful and informative video? Ini ndiri mu him but ndakutoziva a rough idea of how much I need to do a beautiful project seya Rhodha
@ashlerwurayai5204 zwakaoma kani nfotukirwa kushare my experiences.🤣
My sister word cost does not have a past tense. It cost me not costed me.
The past tense of cost is cost or costed, depending on the sense you wish to convey Both cost and costed are correct past forms of the verb cost, but they often differ in usage. Cost: the amount needed to buy, do, or pay for something.
Before you start judging people on their usage of English terms, stop and ask yourself whether you are truly knowledgeable of what you think is right / just be humble and save yourself from embarrassing yourself if you don't have anything good to say. That's just my advice. BE KIND MY BROTHER.
