A higher-quality block or an alternative like CIEBs (Compressed Interlocking Earth Blocks) may cost more upfront, but they resist cracks, damp, and weather damage. This means fewer repairs, less repainting, and no need for early replacement.
Why Spending a Little More Upfront Saves a Lot on Repairs Later
One of the most common regrets in homebuilding is trying to cut corners on materials. While it might seem like a smart move to save a few thousand dalasi at the start, the long-term costs of repair and maintenance usually outweigh the initial savings.
Durability Pays for Itself
Structural Confidence
A house built with strong materials increases property value and provides peace of mind. Imagine trying to sell a house where the walls are covered with mould stains and cracks – buyers will instantly lower their offers, if they buy at all.
Time Saved
Repairs not only cost money, they cost time and stress. Living in a home that constantly needs patching up is draining. Spending more upfront saves years of hassle.
