Below is the approximate breakdown cost for cementing a floor for
one house: These are average estimates. Individual costs may vary regarding the
size of the house and the distance covered during transportation of
construction material. To some, it may even cost around a half of this total
cost and to some it may even be slightly more than this.
12 packets of cement @$11 = $132
Transport=$25
I lorry of sand @$38 = $38
Transport=$25
1 lorry of gravel @$63 = $63
Transport=$25
Labor = $40
TOTAL
COSTS= $348
Transport
Transportation varies for example: transporting cement from
Kakamega Town to Grace and Everline’s home is around $13 and transporting the
same to Abednego’s home is around $25.
Exact figures can only be obtained by surveying specific houses
and getting individual costs.
Only Evangeline’s house has thatched roof and it will be better if
they can have iron roof.
Zainabu Otari’s house is in very poor condition, almost falling;
it can easily be blown away by strong wind.
Some of the children have leaking roofs such as Gladys, Lydia not
sure of other houses with the same problem. They may just need repair.
