Here’s what’s obtainable in saner clime (see the attached below)

Some minor changes can be done onsite without modifying a plan at all. But to a novice, everything is a big deal!
Changing the room space or door location, changing interior walls, eliminating or changing windows, changing the facade and reconfiguring the kitchen but what do I know - in a jankara market “anything goes.”

There’s never a perfect plan. Things do change on the project site.

It’s pretty simple and not something to make a big deal of.

Great write up. It really covers a lot of issues. I think this write up could fly for a doctorate degree thesis " Contract Law".

Meanwhile, you mentioned "bid". Bidding is basically for contractors and as far as I know in Nigeria can't say about other countries. Bidding fee is non refundable irrespective of effort you put in. But when you contact an architect for a design that is consultancy services. The standard procedure is to give the architect a letter of Engagement (this is a written evidence), this is enough for the architect to prosecute the client in case he is trying to play smart. In return the architect will also give the client a letter of acceptance and stating his fees. For private individual project all these are long and tiring process what matter most is trust and integrity.

Is it pocket friendly?
Definitely not, but since it's just for your TV area, 30k--50k should be enough.

Make your plans as if you were married. You would soon get married and have kids, so u don't start making amendments to your designs smiley

2 x 1000 liters would be sufficient for that purpose.
