Iykechas:
Thanks Jamesbiodun, but in some new housing designs, the sitting room is always separate from the dinning, also the lack of adjoining door from the kitchen to dinning is also intention, just for privacy purpose. But your costing did not include cost of German floor, please I will appreciate if you will include. More blessings.

actually d op just said foundation, but if you are planning for German floor d cost will change coz u have to add steel rod incase u r building a high rise building, with pvc pipe, binding wire, and witth d rate of dollar, steel rod is now cost, I bought 1 ton of 12mm 280 last month, wen I see a high rise plan, I will calculate it, thank you

Jamesbiodun:
the floor plan is not good, op kindly redesign, ur sitting room kitchen and dinning, it's very bad....
I have calculated the cost for foundation,
Digging foundation: 40000
1120 block for foundation : 134400
cement: 48000
bricklayers and labour : 40000
Total : 262,400...

but d price can go down in ur area, here in idiroko cement is 2400 and u r going to use 20 bags of cement, block is 120 and u r going to use 1120 blocks, that's d estimate, it can't pass d price I give u, am a site engineer and supervisor

Jamesbiodun:

Eyah weldone sir, u sound like bricklayer

Guess u are the one sounding like an architect...smh...

Architects will understand my points...
No fully trained architect criticize a design without hinting on the points....living room & dining is bad...why? was that how your jury was during your school days? Only lay men condemn designs without being specific...everyone can condemn a design...including laymen...but not everyone can profer solution...

Re: Cost Of Building Foundation for a 4 Bedroom Bungalow In The East by Nobody: 3:54am On Apr 11, 2017

For the german floor you will need a single tipper of stone 30,000, 18 bags of cement and 40,000 for workmanship

johnson232:

What about labour, cement, sand & stones for the german floor?
is german floor not part of the foundation sir?

Re: Cost Of Building Foundation for a 4 Bedroom Bungalow In The East by Nobody: 4:02am On Apr 11, 2017

For the German floor the stone you bought for the foundation and lintel will still be enough to pour it. You will need 18 bags of cement, 1 trip of sand and 40,000 for labor. Thanks

So you're an architect, site supervisor and Engineer but you don't know that "German Floor" is part of foundation? Wow.

And your quote is even worse than a mere bricklayers quote.
You just go to site and start digging. Bravo. No setting out as Oga Supervisor that you are. No site store. No site clearing. No top soil removal. No granite. No water. No labour fee for blinding etc.. . Then you use 20 bags of cement to set 1120 blocks, and also for blinding. Do you even know what that is?

@ Jamesbiodun, it is foundation with german floor for 4 bedroom bungalow, not a high rise building, please see plan pictures for clarity.

german floor is part of every foundation, irrespective of the building. Some people do postspone it & do it later due to funds...but it is not advisable.
Pls get a good engr or architect around your area of residence to guide u...

u can start by contacting d architect that did the drawings...

Hello bros them,

I am worried, after reading all your comments here , I feel the person handling my projects is not being truthful at all. I am building a 4 bedroom bungalow, the floor plan is almost the same as the one posted here. the guy told me he will need 2200 blocks for foundation because we re making 5 blocks. so he molded them for 300K.

for digging, blinding,rods and bending for 15 pillars and all it will take to lay the 5 blocks he collected 450K.

he said he will need upto 30 trips for the filling at 12K each which is 360K

So total is 1.110 million for foundation

wetin you guys think?

Hello everyone, any idea on how much it will cost for me to start a foundation of this 2 story bungalow home?

Re: Cost Of Building Foundation for a 4 Bedroom Bungalow In The East by smatnemo25: 5:32pm On Nov 11, 2017

hi guys, it's really exciting putting up a building and most importantly i like to know all the details about it. At least i should be able to tell when someone is trying to swindle me. i really want to know how much it would take to build a foundation in an area with considerable amount of calcium. The house is 265ft in perimeter.it has 4 bedrooms en suite, an anteroom, a dining, two lounges(sitting rooms), a kitchen and store. The interior area without wall thickness has an area of 2074.65 square feet(192.74 square meter). Thanks in advance to anyone who would help. It is a bungalow. Please it should be realistic.

Thank you o. All these engineers quoting 5million just for foundation and German Floor of a 4 bedroom bungalow is just ridiculous. Making people who are yet to build scared of building as if it’s some big deal.

So, b4 accessing dining from living room, I gast enter ante room first grin

the plan isn't too bad if only they can provide an arc on the living room/dining wall and then look for an easier access from kitchen to Dining.

Good evening everyone, I know this is an old thread, since 2017. But am hoping I can get answers to my questions from experienced builders or from people who are currently on the same project. Am starting a four bedroom bungalow project next month by Gods Grace, and would like to know how much it would cost me for a four bedroom bungalow foundation. How many blocks and cement I will need. I would like to have an idea just to avoid being ripped off. Although I don’t plan to give the job or give money to an engineer who will want to bill me recklessly. I plan to buy materials myself because I want my hard earned money to go a long way. Thanks in advance for your reply’s. Please help a sister oooo grin
