What Is BuildMyHouse?
BuildMyHouse is a remote property project management platform for Nigerians who want to manage property work in Nigeria with more control.
It is not just a contractor directory. It is not just a construction company. It is not "Uber for artisans."
BuildMyHouse sits between the homeowner, contractor, project scope, stage progress, communication, and payment decisions — so property work can feel more structured and visible.
You can use BuildMyHouse for construction, renovation, repairs, interior design, and diaspora project management.

The Problem Is Not Just Finding a Contractor. It Is Controlling the Work.
Most people can find "someone who knows someone." The real wahala starts after that.
"Work is going on" is not the same as "this stage is complete."
•
unclear scope
•
vague updates
•
money requests
•
family pressure
•
weak documentation
•
no clear stage completion
•
no proper visibility from abroad

Depending on context, documentation may include CAC registration certificate, TIN, tax clearance certificate, government-issued ID, proof of business address, professional license or council registration where applicable, insurance certificate, and director/proprietor ID.
