Caustics:Got you, that's a tough one. I left that place longtime ago, I don't know if those companies still exist. I worked in TECHNOTOOLS ENGINERIING before running my own company TUNBORT TECH MACHINAING before I left many years ago. All those stuffs can be easily access from here if you have the right people to work with. I used to get most of my electrical /electronic components at ALABA INTERNATIONAL MARKRT those days, another company called TIGER HEAD TECH NIGERIA LIMITED AT ILUPEJU RD, AROUND NESTEL MAGI COMPANY. ANOTHER ONE CALLED TELDO FUNDRY CAMPANY USED TO HANDLE ALL OUR CASTING AND FUNDRY JOBS THEN IN THAT LOCATION TOO, EASYTECH CAMPANY LTD DO MACHINES PARTS, AND COMPONETS STUFFS THEN, AT ANIFOWSHE IN IKEJA AROUND NIGER RITE COMPANY. DATA MANGEMENT COMPANY, NEXT DOOR NEIGHBOR TO TOWER ALUMINUM HEAD QUATERS IN IKEJA HANDLED ALL HARDARE/SOTFTWARE PROGRAMS THEN. DO YOUR RESEARCH SEE IF SOME OF THOSE COMPANIES STILL EXIST. |

agarawu23:The designer tried The dining space seems too big, especially when there is no visitors wc, the dining/entrance can be modified to accommodate a foyer or ante rm & visitors wc at least. The inner stair should be modified, u really don't need to pass through the living room while taking stuff from the kitchen to the pent floor.The back terrace, one door should be locked. Exit are too many. It shouldn't even be more than two for such a small house for security reasons. I must give kudos to the architect for the ventilation. But for the pent floor, master room, there should be an opening at the front, instead of having double on one side. 2 Likes 1 Share |

Good news! These are some of the incorrigible elements and social misfits that have us sullying our properties with high fence, barbed wires, electrified fences, burglar proofs, etc I'm elated. https://www.nairaland.com/3854625/check-out-police-press-briefing#57420165 "7. EVANS KIDNAPPING EXPLOITS IN LAGOS INCLUDES; a. Mbarikatta William Uboma, 35, kidnapped June 16th, 2012 at about 11.am on his arrival from Hungary while he was close to his house. He was in his Toyota Car 2010 model in company of his brother to drop him at his house when a Passat car emerged from nowhere and blocked his car. They blindfolded him and forcefully abducted him to an unknown destination. They later demanded a ransom of N10M. However, N2M was later paid while they collected other personal accessories. He was finally dropped at Okota on the third day." 2 Likes |

agarawu23:Nice concept. My observations: You have steps leading to do dinning and hallway within. a small living room it could cause an accidents trip and fall. The kitchen is relatively small and you have a trapped space between the kitchen and the stair hall not well ventilated and poor natural light access. There is a verandah at the back of giving access to two rooms; the more openings the more security vulnerability ( good access for children to sneak out). That verandah space could be utilised to gain more space internally. Just My opinion !No bashing pls ooo. Happy New week 2 Likes 1 Share |

Aventures: Personally, I would open up that whole area (Kitchen / Dining / Main Lounge) in favor of an open plan concept. Take down all the dividing walls/doors and liberate more space. Open plan living seems not to have caught on in Nigeria, perhaps because maids/servants are employed for kitchen work and so necesssarily shut off from the rest of the family. For a single family unit though, it improves interactions - and I want to smell when that Ogbono soup is ready! As is, have you considered the practicality of the Main Lounge? Seems to me there's no backing wall for entertainment units/TV, credenzas etc. Good luck. |

InvertedHammer:It's currently the preferred method in modern septic tank construction in south south Nigeria. Although slightly cheaper than full concrete wall, it almost equals it in strength. It became popular cause ordinary sandcrete block septic tanks eventually failed due to increasing tension from the backfilled soil against the wall holding more and more water from flooding due to blocked drains. However since earthquakes are least of our worries, it is considered an overkill for anything else other than a security room / bunker |

44chux: The strength of such wall is far lower than that of a full concrete wall when use to retain earth because of the horizontal soil bearing pressure of surrounding saturated soil because of lack of adequate provision for the moment at the base of such walls. A sancrete block wall with a rebar, casted with a weak concrete is the correct ways to build load bearing partition walls. 2 Likes |

erico2k2:That's why it's important to stay anonymous on an online forum like this, especially on the Properties and Investments Forum. You don't want to be tracked thru the personal details you may innocuously leave on the thread. But did you see the kidnapper's house? A nairalander could've built such a magnificent house without knowing that he was building it for a devilish kidnapper and sociopath. |
