You will need to bore or break underneath some sections of the block work and pour your concrete so that "DPC" will go under some section of the already laid block. This will reduce the effect of rising damp by as much as 70%.

Terrible plan for an estate after snatching the land from the villagers and those who had also purchased it. And planning to sell them close to 20m.
I have a plot opposite side of Ndiagu Amechi. Thank God it's not on the express road. State government for come forcefully snatch am too

Hello House , I want to buy some building materials from China, from tiles to PVC ceiling, AC, Bath spa, bathroom fixtures and fittings, garage door and lighting, if possible Solar. I want to put into a 20ft container but of course, I am certain that I would not fill it up, there is no need bringing in a not full container. If there is anyone interested in shipping building materials from China, we can meet an discuss the modalities involved also it would reduce the total landing cost not just for me but anyone/persons who we both combine resources in pulling this off.. please PM me if interested. Thanks.

US is nice but may be too expensive, not the shipment and clearance but the items itself. most of them are Chinese and the thing is that you can get good quality from China, you just need to ask for it.

Is this something that you have experience doing successfully before?

I might go for some automotive parts and accessories.

Hi
Why buy these items from China when you can get good qualities of them here
Is that to reduce the cost or something ?

On tiles I can assure you of good and qualitative porcelain Spanish, Italian and Chinese made tiles for both wall and floor
And we can deliver them to your site if its within Lagos state for free

Here are some samples

i dont have this experience on this scale. i have made bulk orders online from China and had them imported via air but thats different from going there myself and buying items myself. its still in consideration phase as i am thinking of the modalities
e.g consolidating different good from different manufacturers, logistics to the container location and most especially shipping costs to the final point of consolidation into the container and also if the container space has to be paid for in the prriod in ehich its taking in all these goods till its filled up. my parents were importers and have experience but they mainly bought from one manufacturer. i would have to talk to my mum about this.

Buying from different manufacturers isn't much of a problem.
Just know the shipping company address you intend using. As you buy from each manufacturer you can tell them which company is handling the shipping. They will package and send it to the company with your details on it. You may likely pay some extra for that.
But since you'll be there, be sure your goods are packaged well and you can monitor some of the activities. Some might be stressful but its worth it.
Your goods are cost per line in the container and that's what you'll be charged for.
Happy shopping in the east.

Question for my ibadan people. I know that there must be a place that makes/sells European style living room furniture like those you’ll find at iKea (exhibit 1).

All I’m finding are these babalawo style (exhibit 2).

KolaShangOne, and other usual suspects any thoughts?

No delay..seriously sad Oga pass it to a quantity surveyor to avoid delays...when asking for free stuff a little level of politeness is needed.

i did a similar project and it took ca. 6000 pieces of 6 inches hollow block....2 units of 3 bedroom (all rooms ensuite and a guest restroom).

maybe less as some part of my foundation was about 7 to 8 coaches cos I had naively bought a sloply land which means alot of block was used for the sloply part.

All the best.

Oga only a QS will give you the best figures in terms of quantity and total cost.
All said just prepare yourself from within 5500-6500blocks depending on a lot of factors then it total budget should be writhing 8-12million it can be more depending on your taste and general site condition.
All the best.

Depends on how far you are willing to go from 150k to millions depending on the location and purpose for the drawings .
