Ela-G guest house Laguna: Perimeter wall and kitchen extension (part 1)

By: Fredolin P. Aguinaldo

THE CONSTRUCTION SUMMARY

ElabizProperties through Ela-G brand name, the subject project is located at West Wing Residences Eton City (WWREC) in Sta. Rosa Laguna.

Phase 1 includes the construction of the perimeter wall and a kitchen extension on a 150 sq. meters property.

Groundworks

Building materials utilize concrete slab on grade and walls, metal roof truss structures to become adaptable to a roof mount solar set-up later. Windows are specified to be dual glazed vinyl with glass. The roof is to be composite shingle or equal with high wind exposure installations.

Plans submitted to the developer indicate the property, which consist of the existing house; perimeter walls, the kitchen extension perspective and plans into an aggregate total area of 150 square meters will be developed by phase 1.

The site is relatively half-circle in shape on a corner lot; and the property is facing two roadways that give resident un-restricted views of the horizon.

Site development includes but not limited to earthworks and excavations, fine grading along the existing curb and walkway, paving and stripping, landscaping and perimeter fencing. On-grade parking will be developed as extension verandah and below will become the permanent parking slot for 2-cars and form part of phase 2 contract.

During an on-site video call with our construction contractor engineer along with my wife Evelyn, it is decided that the frontage area of the house, wall post, and divider wall and the washing area will be provided with decorative tiles for ease of maintenance and added beauty. I was then skeptical for a while because seepage of rainwater will be restricted and might be a concern but later agreed to their suggestions.

The community is part of a residential project developed by Eton Properties. Adjoins the site including the almost finish recreational facilities and the multi-purpose clubhouse and a football field is being planned on the Southwest part of the clubhouse. At the far end of the community and within reach by the resident, a well known institutional academe breaks ground lately.
