"It might not go beyond Ksh 1.5M ($10.7K)" 2 Bed, 79 SQM House with Hidden Roof

Is affordable housing a pipe dream or an achievable idea? In my quest to document alternative building technologies on this channel, I discovered a 2 bedroom house in Gikambura (Kiambu County, Kenya). According to Alex, the finished house shouldn't go beyond Ksh 1.5M (USD 10.7K). The structure alone without the finishes cost below Ksh 1M (USD 7.13K). Is that affordable? I'll let you decide as you enjoy the video!

Too expensive

[@alinura7771]

[@susanmburu590]

Waiting to see when the house is completely finished. Nick, you have shown us several houses being built with precast panels during construction phase but we are yet to see the final product. Eagerly waiting for one. Usituangushe mafans!

[@Culumo1]

that is true. we gonna see when it finished

[@wasitahacoolwaters1752]

Nick can only show a finished house when the owners are ready to show it. So I am sure that if there was a finished house made with pre-cast panels, Nick would have already shown it. So we all have to be a little bit patient. It takes a while to finish a house

[@PropertyNoma]

One tour is dropping soon so kindly stay tuned. Meanwhile you can watch this. kzbin.info/www/bejne/b5m9oZRrlKeae9k

Thanks for inspiration, looking forward to see the finishing. in Convectional we do have vents just above the windows and the likes, how about on this Precast panels technology?

[@margaretndungu2132]

This is awesome...I love the good work you are doing. The house you have done so far is the Bagaros, so my question is... Is it safe to build a house with slabs using precasts?

[@PropertyNoma]

That's the next video. Stay tuned

Please organize a road trip for those of us who see and believe. We would like to touch and feel too

Great idea Bilha. A great place to start is at Kingdom Precast Solutions. They're building their 2 storey office using precast panels

Plse show us how plumbing is done coz electric wirinb is easy. How about plimbing eg inlets and outlets of piping. Thank you. Plse share

[@PropertyNoma]

We will try

[@user-je8gf1pj7x]

As architect i can say without doubt that the so called alternative technology are not necessarily cheap. Walling only make up 12 % of the build cost. Yes, you will definitely save on time but when you do your calculation the savings are negligible.

[@hkay980]

..its a fraud

[@cashauto3349]

what percentage does plastering and painting take?

[@Nya-e5m]

Good you said you save time. That's the goal.

[@copysmith1004]

I'd wish to save at any slightest opportunity.

[@Roseforres]

Can precast cement homes withstand hurricanes? Earthquakes? We need this in Jamaica

[@PropertyNoma]

Yes they can as long as your engineer reinforces them during installation for such extreme weather conditions

[@veronicahmuthoni7829]

How can i get contact for property noma vcompany

[@ItsBobBTW]

Good job Nick, could you show us an older house built with precast panels?

[@PropertyNoma]

Yes that video is hopefully coming this month

[@bettgideon3668]

So with 2.5m i can make 3bedroom?

[@RodneyBuilder]

Why won't the precast panels builders show off a Finished house? Especially the walls they say don't need plaster?

[@wasitahacoolwaters1752]

We're working with the budget of the client, so sometimes the finishing process stalls or takes time. But some finished houses are coming soon on the channel

[@domitillakaluki4964]

Good evening Iam Interested Is it possible to have 2 units on top of each other so as to save space ?

[@PropertyNoma]

Yes it's possible according to the structural design of your house

[@sultankuto8724]

Yeah for the slab ,beam and block tech will be used good sir,

CAN THIS TYPE OF BUILDING (PREFAB) BE BUILD IN A SWAMPY PLACE AREAS LIKE BUDALANGI

[@PropertyNoma]

A thorough soil investigation should be done by your engineer to see how to import hardcore and soil for your site for stabilisation and suitability of construction

[@markgeorge7426]

Why should the roof be hidden?

[@PropertyNoma]

As part of the house design. That includes the use of a parapet wall

[@markgeorge7426]

@@PropertyNoma still didn't understand why designs are adopting hidden roofs, is there a reason?

[@PropertyNoma]

@@markgeorge7426 Cost savings on roof designs. It helps you use a simple, cheap butterfly roof instead of a flat slab or a gable roof. Cost savings are on timber or LGS trusses and mabati covers
