Welcome to Bullionrise Consult where your building dreams comes through with peace of mind.
Today we want to discuss the timeline of a 5 bedroom duplex project in Nigeria.
I also want you to know that even though speed is important in everything we do in life,
quality is our top priority and not speed.
How will you feel when you start noticing some faults in your house after
completion only for you to find out that the fault happened because of too much rushing.
That can never happen with us! we reject it.
For example: Are you aware you require 28 days full strength for the
decken before removing the temporary wood formwork below?
And until the Formwork is removed you cannot proceed further with
finishing works on the internal part of the Ground floor.
Also have in mind that there are a lot of factors that affects the
speed of a project which we have addressed in one of our articles.
I want you to know that the analysis we will give you is specific to Bullionrise Consult, not general construction.
This below is a break down of how long it will take us to handle a basic 5 bedroom duplex,
assuming what you bringing to the table is money alone, we handle the materials and labor.
TABLE
| STAGES | SOLID FLAT LAND | WATERLOGGED LAND |
| Setting out | 2 days | 2 days |
| Foundation | 12 days | 15 days |
| German floor (Decken) | 2 days | 3 days |
| Block work | 20 days | 22 days |
| Lintel & Column | 12 days | 14 days |
| Decken (Slab) | 13 days | 15 days |
| Roofing | 14 days | 14 days |
| Plastering | 7 days | 7 days |
| FINISHING | ||
| POP ceiling / screeding | 14 days | 14 days |
| Tiling | 8 days | 8 days |
| Painting | 4 days | 4 days |
| Electrical & Plumbing fittings installation | 14 days | 14 days |
| TOTAL | 4 months | 4 months 12 days |
Some task will overlap, for example the plastering can go together with windows and door installation,
like wise decken can go together with electrical and plumbing piping,
so its achievable under 4months, but any timeline below 3 months might jeopardize
quality as some components require adequate timeline to cure and gain strength
before removing temporary supports or applications of finishing on its surfaces.
Failure to allow for those components to gain adequate strength before
proceeding further are the usual causes of defects such as cracks, material Failure etc
Some task will overlap obviously but it’s achivable withing this timeframe,
anything below 3 months will jeopardize the quality of the result.
