visaclick: I think there's a misunderstanding here, the guest toilet is isolated and for quick runs but if a guest is sleeping over, there should always be a toilet inside the visitors room. 5 Likes |

toyeoye:the toilet should be positioned in a place where both purpose will be easily served and that is why adjacent to the dining remains the best for me. Especially when it's a 3bedrooms which all rooms supposed to be ensuite but no space for vt. You get it right ? |

toyeoye: Yes there's a misunderstanding. We are not condemning VT but we frown at it being in the sitting room. There are a million places to site a VT inside a house without sun nor rain touching the visitor.... We all have toilets inside the guest's room, but it won't serve as a VT for me. The architects here know what we are talking about but they won't say a thing. |

visaclick:Having a VT in a somewhat isolated part of the house will give the visitor more freedom to shit and mess freely, especially if it is those kind of shit that makes sound like bomb and the shit probably smells like rotten egg..... Ladies would free to change their pads and wash the inner caucus properly in an isolated VT than in the SR VT 1 Like |

Here in Nigeria, we like copying rubbish, I was given a plan and on this plan, all the three rooms are ensuite with another visitor's toilet and you can only access the rooms through the lobby alone. Then I told the architect to redraw for me with the following instructions. 1. Remove visitors toilet completely from the plan. 2. Make two rooms ensuite only and the two rooms 3. The third room should not be ensuite (room and toilet must be separated) 4. The entrance to the third room should be accessible from another angle. So if I have a visitor who wants to use the toilet, he/she can to the third room toilet without entering the first and second room. 2 Likes |

Patriot9: The third room toilet is what is known as the communal toilet - a toilet accessible to all. This was the ideal situation before we went haywire with toilets. In certain situations, you have all ensuite, communal (sometimes no communal) and then VT in addition. Just too much in my not too humble opinion. This VT discussion was set off by a mini flat plan with VT. For me, a mini flat/One bedroom flat, one communal toilet is enough. |

Since this is a build thread, let me share some information I shared on building efficiency and the use of inverter acs on another thread, as it will be relevant to homeowners who may not appreciate how it can create cost savings in the long run.

inze: This is not as complex as the initial one u posted earlier. This is made possible with the use of male to female elbow of 2 nd half inches to 1 inch reducer But the initial one is more complex before it is very rare to see a reducer of 4, 6, 12 inches to one inch, that is why they make use of that pvc mufro clamp as a reducer |

WOW! I have been reading from previous pages and thanks for the contributions on my plan that started the VT conversation. Well, before I married and moved to my current apartment, I lived in a mini flat like the one I am presently building with similar SR and VT layout. I used to have visitors that sometime sleep over in the sitting room, while for others I leave the BR for them. I never experienced foul smell from the VT. Personally, I am very neat and cleaned the house everyday. Although I don't expect the occupants to do same, but I think considering the size of the build, the current layout is fair. We're currently at the DPC level and can still change the VT door location, but I personally won't like my vistors to go outside to ease themselves. My engineer has also stated his dislike for the current VT door location. But like already said, it's all about preference. Thanks for all the input. 2 Likes |

Is this playing or something? Well! I don’t have much says on workmanship cos I don’t know your location. But concerning materials, Granite- 10tonnes(more than enough) Sand-10tonnes or 1load of tipper Iron- 8mm 6lengths for (stirrup of the 6 columns and chain beams), 12mm 20lengths( both columns and the slabs (decking) Blocks-9” 150 pieces Cement-40bags Binding wire-10kg 3” nails- half bag(more than enough) Nylon-optional Waterproof-optional 1 Like |

gbengress1:Just did two of same size. Total labor and supervision was #500k (excluding materials) I don’t like doing separate charges in labor for one specific job like soak away. I let the contractor deal with all of those (digging,carpenter, iron bender, brick layer and binders). That means I paid #250k for one, but from what I see, your total labor charges is far more than that. |
