Good evening elders in the house, please help your son scrutinize and review this plan for my upcoming building, land size is 60ft by 40ft

This is for the ground floor
Well, the spaces ain't dimensioned, nonetheless, I have some obs.
The living room needs more ventilation, why don't you delete the visitor's toilet, make a bedroom ensuite and let the bath of the other bed be accessible from the lobby. You will get more window space for the living room.

Same is applicable here too.
The one bed apartment doesn't need a v. toilet.
Note
Ventilation is important in buildings, it is one of the elements that doesn't make the indoor get boring.
Talk to Ur architect, he should guide you more in providing such for the building.
Great design you av there. It's fantastic.

I can only tell you that marine board is now N13,200/board.
I got it 8,200 in March, 9,500 in April, 10,300 in May. Now, it’s over N13k

I can’t give a definite price for other boards due to unstable market price.

Bought it 11,500 less than 2 weeks ago

Dubemcapital just took measurements of the sitting room... Got 10 sqms less than what the tiler gave. God help me

I keep wondering why you guys really need someone to give measurement for tiles. Do you have a measuring tape? Just measure it yourself, even if you are off, it cannot be for more than one or two pieces of tiles
Once you have your measurement, get just one of the tile you intend to use and do the maths to scale.
This thing is very easy and straight forward.

Length times breath is equal to area. No be for primary school we all learnt that one?

For example, last two years when I wanted to tile my father’s Obi, because I wasn’t there I just asked someone to go to the place and use his ordinary feet to count how many feet. The way we do it for monkey post football back then. He came back with 25 x 30. Which is approximately 750 square feet. They went to the market and bought 750 square feet plus 10 pieces more and it was perfect.

The reason length has standard unit of measurement is for it not to be subjective. Nothing like calling an expert to measure, even in a case of irregular shape space you do it bit by bit and add the sum.

Chair.
The borderline bounding the ground floorplan, is that the property line (Site)?
Please tell your Architect to relate the ground floor plan to the actual survey plan, I mean coming up with a site plan.
Then he should clearly show the staircase with the arrow showing the direction of movement.

When that is done, repost the site plan and the floor plans, then you will get a better review of that design than what you actually have now.
Thanks.

Wait!
Are you planning to start a construction project soon and are you considering skipping this step?

Maybe because of time constraints, reducing cost, avoiding stress, etc.

Hmmm…

Think again

You might be skipping something quite fundamental to the durability of your building, you know?

So before you move on to the next post, let’s help you see things from a different angle by highlighting 5 cogent reasons you should get your building permit before you start construction.

Reason 1- Safety Standards are Checked

Getting your building permits before construction helps you align your projects to relevant safety and construction requirements and standards

Reason 2- Alignment to designated land use

We’ve mentioned before that one of the reasons the Government demolishes buildings is due to wrong land use. That is because most of those developers did not get their building permits before they started building.

Reason 3-To avoid unnecessary interruption

The government agency in charge of building control would be out from time to time to interrupt site work of constructions of buildings without permits. So, it’s advisable to get it done before you begin at all.

Reason 4- Spend Less and Save more

The penal fee to be paid for not getting your building permit before you begin site work is more than twice what it would cost you to get it done before you commence.

Reason 5- Give yourself peace

You will become so agitated each time there is an interruption on site which may occur more often than you expect.

We hope you find this helpful and you have a rethink in your next building project.
