Just wanted to say I started watching your videos and I am hooked. I just like how simple you present your work and it’s so real. You are down to earth and say things the way it is. We are similar…I just finished building my little one storey project in my village and it was fun stressful….so watching your videos brings memories back and makes me smile because your joys and stress are some of what I experienced too😊 I will still do it again. Looking forward to my two storey building project
👀. Hardworking men. Thanks for sharing this wonderful project. Nothing like nice house in the village where you can relax and have fun with your people.
Good morning. Perfect timing. I’m not Nigerian but been following this journey and finally subscribed. This is so inspirational and insightful. All the best Flo, love your energy and personality x
Good morning sis Flo,I trust you are doing well with your family very soon u will a good building contractor so that I can get some advice from you I like the way you are interacting with your workers,u are wonderful women and doing a great job keep up the good work for your family.
Thank you for sharing all these videos of your housing project. I pray that it will be well with you and all that you set your hands to in Jesus name, Amen!
Hello Flo, I just want to say thanks for sharing the progress of the your project with us, I have a question about the laundry room in your house, how is the laundry hookup like? Is it similar to what we have in the U.S? Please I would really appreciate it if you or someone else can help me understand this process. Thank you so much.
Do you mean the electrical appliances? For ours there will be a washing machine. No dryer because it's harsh on fabrics. Then we will have a sink in there for hand-washing. Then some cupboards for the detergents and other laundry stuff. That's all. You will see it when it's done.
It looks better and since there's a main house in the compound, it need to match it. Better for leveling of the compound. Else water won't be able to flow out from that side.
Hello Aunt FLO. Good job and may God bless you more ma. However, I was about to ask you the same question. I thought when doing a German floor, iron rodes must be included? Please help me on this ma.
@@albarka1 you are talking about decking. The one you do before laying first floor blocks. Adding rods to a ground floor slab is unnecessary. There are rare cases where the foundation is not filled where you do the ground floor like decking. But not in this case. I suggest you watch my Sequence of Building a House video 👉👇 th-cam.com/video/eBkRsOjmClU/w-d-xo.html
Good day I send you email Its a pleasure to send you this message, I watch you so well on your TH-cam channel and am pleased with most all the videos I watched so far. I am planing to build 2 bedroom of 6 flats in ogun state. The survey of the 2 plot have been done and waiting for the surveyor outcome from the government and the same time the architect is already drawing the design which he said will be ready in 1st week of October. Main reason am writing is that can you get me a trusted person as I watched in your recent video to monitor the quality (Mason supervisor) and builder as you said to look after the building structure but I don't if the architect can do that because I didn't discuss that with him. Please you reply will be highly appreciated
Lol...I thought BQ means Bill of quantities. Also in Kenya we say courses not coaches. We also first fill with hard-core rocks before adding murram to ensure a tough floor. Here I see you are just adding murram alone.
Courses vs coaches. I am following what the builders call it in Nigeria. For them, a course is more like a parapet, continuous concrete. Hardcore is for when we are building in swampy areas like in Lagos, Nigeria. And in that case we will do the raft foundation rather than blocks.
Flo, your late grandma will be so proud of you. You’re doing a wonderful job and making all Africans proud. God is your strength 🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾❤️
I feel like grabbing that pear from screen here😆 They are so fast, I'm feeling the beauty of this house. I can't wait to see the final look.
Me too. 😋
It's ur money that Make them to be fast. When you have ur money u can build a house in one month ☺🙏

Excellent job

Nne lovely work as always, how much did you buy the rods? I mean 16,12,8mm. Just wanted to compare it with the price in Lagos. Thanks
Watch the detailed cost video 👉 th-cam.com/video/pl2emfYWCNg/w-d-xo.html
this type of building bu obele nshi nemebi ike...you'll be amazed at how much this building cost
You know this! In the current economy, even a hut costs a lot. O di egwu really.
This foundation is indeed deep, 4feet shaa. Wow, you won't buy uba again dear aunt flo. Enjoyment.
Yes o. Just that the tree is too close to the wall. We are still thinking what to do about that. It came with the land.
Nne i love what you are doing , pls can you help me the price of 16mm rod and 12 mm biko, watching from south Korea
Watch 👉 th-cam.com/video/pl2emfYWCNg/w-d-xo.html for the costing.
Weldone flo😍
Ma where are you from in anambra state
Sis. Flo please can you tell me why do they have to do salaka before cutting the udara tree down, like what does it mean?
I explained it in details here 👉 th-cam.com/video/qtB7V2rY-Vk/w-d-xo.html
@@FloFinance yes Sis, hv watched it already. Thanks
I can see rods for pillars. Is this a storey building BQ
No. But you need rods for the edges of the walls and the lintels even for bungalows. And this one has front pillars and extended beam as well.
This is rapid.
What is the essence of the Tree cutting ceremony?
Watch the details: th-cam.com/video/qtB7V2rY-Vk/w-d-xo.html
if i may ask why is it so high? is it not a bungalow....btw i am trying to follow the serie
Check up high bungalows pictures, you would love them

@@FloFinance oh, thanks for educating me, I am seeing that for the first time, hence I needed to know why
Pls what's the cotation for this project. Thanks

@@FloFinance thanks so much, it was help full.
Yea🤗
They're not doing the type we used to know as 'German floor'?
Which type was that? Please share.

Depends on the type of soil you are building on
Courses vs coaches. I am following what the builders call it in Nigeria. For them, a course is more like a parapet, continuous concrete. Hardcore is for when we are building in swampy areas like in Lagos, Nigeria. And in that case we will do the raft foundation rather than blocks.
Please ma I need the phone number of furniture that did you kitchen. Thank ma
It's in the comment section of that video.
