    Default Home Renovation Help and Advice is needed


    Hello guys i need your help. i recently acquire a low cost housing unit in deca and i need some advice in renovating. i don't have experience with construction. any advice on what equipment and building medium i should use.

    anyway mods i have no idea where to properly put this subject if ever you find it inappropriate kindly move it nalang thanks.

    ok so here's the details i plan to tile the 2nd and 3rd floor and put partitions in the 3rd floor for 3 rooms.
    the floor area of the second floor is roughly 20 sqm and the 3rd floor is around 22 sqm
    what are the more cost effective building materials i can use without sacrificing too much on quality.
    i also plan to put roofing on the kitchen. and possibly some shelvings on the rooms kitchen etc.
    if you observed the video there is also a part on the first floor and would like to finish it maybe add tiles.

    and lastly would a budget of 100k pesos be enough for materials and labor?

    i have some pics and video for analysis.

    80% done.


    first floor may be used as garage, also there is roughly 3 meter frontage from the cement floor up to the street wala lang a apil sa pic.


    2nd floor


    3rd floor


    my plan on the 3rd floor. note i don't own this pic "never mind the door on the pic of the left side this was a floor plan of the orginal 2 floor unit but still dimensions are the same.


    3 rooms on 3rd floor




    i greatly appreciate any help, advice you can give me.

    additional notes. the 2nd floor would become the living and dining room and dirty kitchen outside will be roofed.

    Dako gyud imong budget da. anyway so block 5 lot 29 ka. i think that's what they are building at the site now. kay human naman ang 125-105 and then they started to build again units near the gate at 22 - 27 i think

    i just want it to be livable first without looking half way done. then slowly improve on the unit in time.

    first job will be.

    1. tiles on the 2nd floor and 3rd floor including the kitchen

    2. 3 room partition on the 3rd floor

    3. roofing on the dirty kitchen located on the 2nd floor

    4. grills on all windows at the back of the house.

    5. smoothing out the first floor. polished concrete like the one we find on the flooring of yellowcab pizza.

    6. basic shelving on the kitchen. minimalist lng literally just planks on the wall. how expensive could that be?

    7. leveling the soil from the road to the unit itself. "i have a large frontage compared to the other units so basically i can still use the frontage as a carprk without me going straight inside the first floor.
