i want to share mine too...

2 years ago (2010), nagbakasyon ako and decided to start construction on my house. may budget was around 1.2m. (for 2 storey bldg. a total of 130sqm.)  so what i did para makatipid, i look for a contractor na mejo mura lang ang singil. i found one trusted foremen. pinakitahan nya ako ng mga plano and i selected one. nagsettle kami sa 250k labor lang yun at sabi ko i finish lahat ng plastering kasama loob at labas. separate din yung presyo ng truss and roofing labor for 25k excluding lahat lahat ng materials. I started to purchase all the required materials to be used on the construction like bakal (pinakamabigat na bilhin sa lahat dahil sa presyo), semento (220/bag) pa ang natatandahan ko nun., pako, plywoods, good lumber (sobrang mahal din) pero nagamit ko naman in the end para sa second floor ceiling ko.

mabilis yung contractor ko at sulit namn yung labor nila. on time magtrabaho at on time din ang dimissal nila. btw, hindi kasama sa contract ko yung pakakainin yung mga trabahador. nagpakain lang ako minsan nung nagbuhos sila ng second flooring. in the span of less than 4 months natayo yung bahay ko kasama na roof, plastering. sa ngayon natitirhan na pero di pa tapos. paunti unti na lang ang pinapatrabaho ko pag may budget. so ngayong uwi ko, papagawa ko yung kitchen. sa ngayon yung budget ko dating 1.2m ay lumagpas na sa gastos ko since finishing na ako. if not mistaken nasa 1.6m na nagagastos ko pero sulit naman kasi kita din yung hard earn money na naipon ko.

so far eto lang muna maishare ko sa inyo.

Pa join po. Sana pala dati ko pa nakita tong thread na to. okay ang mga advises. Baka nakatipid pa kami kahit pano sa pagpaparenovate ng unit nmin. Feeling ko kasi ang laki ng inabot nya for a 30sqm na floor area. ceilings, cabinets, furnitures at paints lang yun samin pero ang laki ng inabot. Tapos ang bagal pa ng gawa! 2 carpenter at 2 helper, inabot pa kami ng almost 2mos! Minsan rin ata, it doesn't help na may interior designer ka lalo pa kung OA sa pagkamabusisi. :(

last night, i have uploaded some pics during the construction and finishing (not all yet finish) of my house. so i'll share some pictures here kaso hindi ganun kagandahan ang house ko. wala pang paint yung exterior ng house. inuuna ko kasi yung interior. siguro mamaya ko na lang i post kasi i'm at the office at the moment.

kumuha ako ng townhouse unit sa Laguna. after a year tapos ko na rin bayaran sa wakas yung equity. kala ko makakahinga na ko ng maluwag, un pala dun magsisimula yung mas madugong part hahaha!

bare kasi yung loob nung property na kinuha ko. [textspeak!] FA niya is 47sqm, 2 story siya.  wala pa siyang tiles, interior paint at partitions. ano bang maisu-suggest nyo na unahin kong ipagawa mga sis? tight budget rin kasi ako.

thank you in advance!  :)

salamat po...

lapit na ulit bakasyon ko, so this time kitchen naman ang next project ko including yung CR ko sa ground floor, lighting, tilings and painting of 3 rooms at yung ceiling ko sa taas sa dalawa kung kwarto. hayyy naku daming gastusin na naman eto. and hopefully kung may extrang budget pa baka pagawa din ako ng garage at balcony with truss and roof sa labas at para na rin magsilbing lilim sa living area ko kasi nasisinagan ng araw from 3pm - 5pm. magkano na naman kaya magagastos ko dito. wala pa naman akong ipon... pero kahit na paunti unti na lang.

ang balak ko last na ipagagawa ay yung painting ng exterior plus installation of deco stone ng front face ng bahay ko.

kami din ngpapa construct ng bahay and almost 400 sqm, di pa fully furnished mga 4 more months pa daw hopefully! mas maganda talaga na me background kahit papano about sa construction kasi nowadays madami ng contractor ang overpricing and substandard pa ginagamit na materials, Hindi naman kasi machecheck agad agad yun flaw ng new built house usually will take months bago maglitawan mga faults!

Some Checklist:
Budget: usually 20K per sqm
Skilled worker
Canvass ng materials sa mga Lumber & Hardware:
Priority dapat ang bakal na gagamitin kasi madami ng china, madali baluktutin, since ito magdadala ng pundasyon ng bahay, notice the size varies from 16 mm-9mm, not sure with this,
Semento-eto mabilis tumaas presyo kaya kung me lugar na kayang pag stockan bumili n ng maramihan
Coco Lumber- mahal sa mga pwesto
Electrical wirings-importante na yun high class gamitin para sure, use separate breaker rather than fuse para mas madaling ma detect if ever may tripping n ma eexperience
Personally prefer pagpapagawa ng service post!
Haloblak- mas matibay daw yun gawa me halong pinatubo

^di ko papatirahin mga anak ko sa 2-storey house na walang post. Kasi pag wlang post, wlang foundation and wlang beam. I would not risk our lives, di bale na tumira sa maliit na bungalow than that kind kasi isang lindol lang baka ano mangyari.

yung nakita kong tinayu na house merong beam pero walang poste, as in puro hollow blocks lang.
napatulala nga ako eh, parang sobrang tipid na ba ng developer? pinag aralan ba nila yan bago tinayo?

^it's useless to construct a beam without a post & a foundation... it's the main skeletal system of the house.. sometimes, i'm just laughing how some "foreman" fool the house owners, what more pa kaya kung developer? pwedeng magdemanda mga house owners nyan, they're putting many lives into risk...
