Man Builds Bungalow Under 1 Year, Installs Iron Sheet Roof over Parapet, Uses Casement Windows

  • A young Nigerian man who built and furnished his house in one year celebrated his achievement on TikTok
  • A few people faulted the type of roofing sheets he used, saying he ought to have gone for more suitable ones for his parapet design
  • The young landlord was, however, satisfied with his house as he shared more clips showing the building's interior

A young Nigerian man who built a neatly constructed bungalow under one year has made a video about it.

His clip captured different construction phases of the house, apart from when the building was at the foundation level.

Parapets for modern building

The house had pillars at different edges of the building to later withstand the weight of the roof's parapets.

One of the photos he (@oluomo1.0) shared showed the moment the house was taken past the lintel level. When the parapets were fully built, carpenters installed a roof using corrugated sheets.

Stone-coated roof vs iron sheets

A person wondered why he could not use more expensive roofing material, such as stone-coated, that could add aesthetic value to the building.

The young landlord also spent much using casement windows, which are more expensive than their sliding counterparts.

In another video, the man showed that he used a POP ceiling. He complemented it with exotic chandeliers. He also furnished the interior. He said he was able to complete the building project in under a year.
