Total Estimated Cost
N---(Foundation Work) + N---(Superstructure) + N--- (Materials) + N----(Borehole) or N--- (Water Tank) = N---- (with borehole) or N-----(with water tank)
The total estimated cost for constructing a 2-bedroom bungalow, including water supply, is approximately the above π(with borehole) or the above π (with water tank).
Avoid parapet to curtail cost
Handle the foundation stage differently to maximize cost too, many spend so much here,some foundation can work very well without some structural expensesπ
Avoid forms and sharps that demand a lot to achieve
Avoid some roofing sheet and if possible go for flat roof
During the finishing maximize and prioritize some space more and not all,yes give all a good touch but in some spaces donβt spend so much on expensive tiles
During the lightening donβt spend much on getting some kind of bulbs because they can cost so much,go for simple bulbs and light up your home
