"It’s best practice to know what it would cost you in terms of material even before you start to build. You need to know the quantity of materials required to put a building up to at least, roofing.”....

The moment you buy a land, you probably would start thinking of the cost of putting up the structure you already had in mind. Ain’t that true. Maybe not in all cases. But most people have an idea what type of structure they want to build before buying a land.

But once you have bought, the next thing is to build, that is if you haven’t bought a land with problem. (Except you are keeping the land o sell in the future, which is a risky practice for lands in Lagos)

It’s best practice to know what it would cost you in terms of material even before you start to build. You need to know the quantity of materials required to put a building up to at least, roofing.

This process is one core function of a Quantity Surveyor. They can help you calculate;
- How many bags of cement you would use for your entire construction works.
- How many concrete blocks you would use till you get to the roof level. Even blocks for fence too.
- What quantity of sand and granite is required for your building
- What size of reinforcement and how many you would need to complete your project etc.

When you know the quantity of the materials you need to get you from one point to another in your construction phase, it’s easy to plan your building project and finish on time.

It’s very easy and cheap to get such details. All that is required is your architectural and structural drawing, and you would get a detailed report of your construction materials sent to your mail.
