Before, when I was a strapping lad, then yes I can spring about the yard and do stuff.
But now as a retiree/pensioner, I have other pressing things to worry about than roof blockage.
If I was back in the USA I would be looking at condos and what nots.

My cheapest drawing even in 2012 is 150k. I’m sure I never paid ihebrooke anything less than 150k for a complete drawing.
Today, a complete package start from avertage of 300k + but if we are the builder, we can go down a bit. There are drawing I do for as much as N1m + and above. We give it everything.
Will I review a 50k drawing 10 times when I’m doing charity?

1) Leaves
2) Nests
3) Accumulated dust I believe the use of fulbora will help reduce the effect leaves n the likes might have. as for the accumulated dust, it's not like we will be having heaps of them over time. this things don't just accumulate n cause havoc at a short while, it takes time and there are certain intervals u need do routine maintenance check which I think is compulsory in the western world. To me and based on my experience so far, the maintenance is a normal thing to be done at a certain time and it's not like its pocket draining. climb through to you manhole n access your drain gutter with brooms n probably water hose to flush down after cleaning n we good. let's hear others opinion n their experience too Sha. #hailingstotheegunmogajihimself 2 Likes |

My client didn’t ask for an atrium. I gave it to him because of functionality.
If my client send me a design and I’m free I build it. If he asks me for a design, Ill give him what works best in his environment and situation.
I'll share some of the questions we ask when designing a house on kobocity.com to know it’s not always the clients that decides our design.
I’m doing a steel roof on my build. It wasn’t the client decision but ours.
Well let continue learning here
we are saying the same thing here, you know what your clients can afford and you give it to them n beside it will work for your design and client can afford the maintenance. in terms of cost for the steel roof, how many client can afford it and how easy will it be to convince a client that doesn't have the exposure/knowledge and under strict/tight budget. if your client can afford all the finishes you've showcased in here, cost for steel roof can never be an issue n either steel or wood, both will serve same function if well done aside that, how much did you charge for your design? I'm sure it's not in the range of a hundred-two? so tell me how you won't go extra mile with your design Sir. 1 Like |

Very nice design.
Everything boiled down to client choice. The client is the one to give primary info before architect design such. Our naija arch can design this perfectly ok , let’s forget jor ...olohun nothing hard In designing.
What matters is client choice, availability of materials and location(so many things associated with location here)
exactly, most clients and most especially the ones @brabus has knows what they want already so he need not start taking them through the process n the rigor of convincing them to if your client gives you open check n flexibility over his build, many architects out there will give you more than all these. so it boils down to clients purse/ exposure n say some other factors. if @brabus architect thinks he's crazy for his design, then your architect needs to up his/her game 1 Like |

Nothing will happen to your aluminum if properly done except your neighborhood is still scanty or prone and filled with petty thief. they are nailed to the wall at intervals so to remove them neatly, you will be relaxed n spend much time n if it's to destroy it you will make noise n call attention to yourself. |

Properties / Re: You Won't Believe The Babe I Saw In A Face Me I Face You House : by Horlardorjah(m): 10:31am On Mar 13, 2021 |
RealGboy: I couldn't sleep well in my friends house that night , my mind was already in that compound, all I could think of is the babe (iFareedah) What a beautiful name ,
immediately it was morning, with the help of my friend I packed my few things and we head to the house , On getting there I checked inside and saw the Dog sleeping in it's cage before we entered,
when my friend saw the Dog he was shocked too and he refused to enter , he told me he's never seen a Lion this close ,
I laughed and told him it's just ordinary Dog na , I even assured him that the animal is a friendly one and in a bid to calm him I moved closer to the cage and said "kitty kitty " the dog looked up and surprisingly did not bark .I turned to my friend like a chairman and told him "you see say the Dog sabi me. fear fear boy " If only someone had told me that day that the cage was unlocked I would have given my soul to the person free of charge .
While I turned my back to face my friend I heard the cage opening,.
at first I decided not to panic but you see that my friend the guy no dey use Dog play at all and.before I could say jack he took to his heels running like usain bolt and screaming chimoooo I don die..
Omo without waiting for further instructions I followed him and this lion followed us ., I thought my end has come , the funny thing was that i did not know where that speed came from but I caught up with my friend and even left him behind , next thing I heard my friend's voice crying and screaming " Nonso abeg wait, wait for me ".. with tears in my eyes I just replied "No vex my brother" .."Abeg no vex "but I couldn't wait ..
The Dog got hold of my friend's leg and threw him off , pounced on him and gave him strange bite , my friend was able to find a stick and attack the Dog back , passerby joined to help him and before long they were able to chase the Dog away.. .
I couldn't see all these at that time because I just kept running ,to make matters worse strangers that saw me also joined me in running, nobody was asking questions ,u see us just join us. Na when I finally stop I realized about 30 people were behind me and we were all gasping for air
,one man managed to ask me " O boy Wetin really happen na ,why u dey run " when I told them it was because of a Dog,. They got angry and started insulting me .
I later realized that the Man who asked me the question was a driver and the people behind him were mostly his passengers,he dumped his bus and followed me in running because they thought cultist or fulani herdsmen were killing people. If not for some elderly women they would have beaten me up that day, they then told me not to be running carelessly like again o...
I called my friend number after settling down , at first he did not pick , and I was scared for him , when he later picked , it was curses upon curses , the guy no even let me explain before he hang up. But I was happy to even hear his voice atleast he's alive.. I called a bikeman to take me back home and the guy said that it would cost me 700 ,that's when I realized I have really travelled far.

Go to mushin n aluminum village n see how all this will be done for you. Yes, the roller is imported but frames n glass are done here in Nigeria toughened, tempered n frosted. Just like I said earlier, only sauna, Jacuzzi or complete shower cubicle hot bath are coupled in Nigeria.

It’s imported and assembled. I just did something similar but for bathroom nope, it's not imported and assembled sir/ma. Aluminum people do it, the glass is tempered and the holes where the sliding mechanism fits in are done from factory, they just buy the roller accessories and frost the glass if the client so wish otherwise they leave it plain n one can see through. I can get one of my man to do it for you. I guess the one u are referring to is either a sauna or enclosed showed cubicle. |
