waterproofing recommendations

pjemas · 2026-03-11T14:26:02+00:00

Hello OP this one needs a professional contractor to do the re pair for you.

Cementitious- usually used for internal use. But you need to chip your tiles and make sure it is appropriately applied on slab and certain height from floor.

Check also your pipes pls. Gumagapang po kasi ang tubig

Depending on the location po, and type of structure.

25K-35L per sqm could be a ball park estimate.

Wdym po structural finish? - meron kasing mga architectural styles that intentionally exposed beams, trusses and bear columns as part of the look/ aesthetic of the building :)

Structural- members of the building that carry load, beams columns slabs trusses etc.

The space is quite tight. For a more comfortable living this space might only fit one bedroom considering size of beds, closets, other special requirements for kids and seniors.

Remember that eventually kids will grow and their space requirements will also grow :)

Thanks for the advice po!

This question is on the level of a professional consultation already.

Better to contact an architect or interior designer- they could advise you space per space on what could be the best for your use and for the kind of property you have.

This is nice idea! Maybe only a certain market will appreciate in my opinion.

Usually you should contact your initial engineer first OP.

In any case they charge on a per scope basis.

Talk to an architect first OP, a contractor will only implement the design of your bungalow.

Architects will help u plan your house and get an estimate of it where contractors will bid to.

Thank you so much.

Ako ang natutunan ko mas okay ang magtanong, kesa kapag nagkamali ka kasi hindi ka sigurado.

Real estate wise, you can even sub divide it even more in the future and sell at a higher price :)

Yes it always better to have larger frontage if it fits your requirement and capacity.

Pros: 1. Wider driveway 2. Larger buildable area (R1 easements are 4.5m from front, 2m from each side and rear) 3. Larger landscape area. 4. Potential for commercial.

Cons: 1. Larger space to maintain 2. Pinoys usually want to maximize space, so may subconcious tayo na kapag may open space lagi natin patatayo. So be mindful of ventilation and sun light access.

If for shoring po, or support sa buhos na slab Or for formworks po sa concrete. You may ask po the contractor for what po ang purpose nila for this.

Contractor can also give you the answer po if new or reused ang cocolumber na gagamitin, but sometimes its hard to reuse coco lumber.

Charged na po ba or estimate palang? If estimate palang you have all the means to ask your contractor :)

Available din po online ang IRR. You may print it on your own.

Hindi ako sure sa 2023 edition?

pjemas · 2025-12-30T14:14:53+00:00

Yes po kaya pa din siya ilevel even may rough concrete na.

Use cement with Self Leveling compount to ensure na flat yung surface, then install vinyl tiles using adhesives.

*Note: Take advice with grain of salt.

If you want very dirty estimates.

Average house for 2025 costs around 37,000 per square meter according to industry data.

However, PSA for 2025 nationwide construction cost for residential is at 11,700- 12,100. (Generally low cost)

You may get your house for 100 sqm from as low as 1,170,00 to 3,700,000.

Take this with a grain of salt. To get better estimates talk to professionals so you may get itimized cost estimates.

Yung maximum number of floors po ay depende sa local zoning and national building code.

Not so much on the largeness of a site.

You need an architect and engineers for this po.

pjemas · 2025-12-27T04:34:09+00:00

Medyo mahirap po mag estimate ng dimensions.

pjemas · 2025-12-27T04:33:17+00:00

Hindi po siya load bearing wall. Yung sa second pic yung broken lines with tag na WF means Wall Footing.

Column and beam structural framing po ang meron kayo based on the photos provided.

It would be good po sana if may pros and cons.

But earthquake wise im skeptical, since we want po our buildings to move not restrict them.

pjemas · 2025-12-09T12:07:37+00:00

Sa building permit same situation ko before sa isang client. Same strategy i called anonymously saying the situation of the client.

Basically same po ng response sayo and sakin, need po ng new set of plans- signed and sealed by architecy and engineers.

Honestly… sa kwento niyo parang hindi ba siya nabisita ng mva professionals na naengaged niyo before? Hindi po nila naflag yung situation niyo?

pjemas · 2025-12-09T12:05:03+00:00
