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.

/
Contact Nigerian shipping agents in Guangzhou or other provinces in China. They ship and clear by cbm.

It is cheaper and will make your life a lot easier.

For individual package . But please note it might only apply for just a draft working drawings and might not career for approval drawings . Also it depends on the location . And development authourities within that area.
All the best.

If u see the standard price rate NIA stated for designs u go run...Just go for an architect u can afford. They all have varying prices according to qualification & years of practice. A professor in architecture i know will never design for u below 500k. But though he doesn't accept all job. While a graduate architect can take 50k. It is like that.

My Oga it's not like that you must be careful how you choose Architect for your Project for instance if your Project is around Ikoyi VI, Lekki Phase 1,and some selected Areas you better be ready to pay proper professional fees who's is just 4.75percent of the cost of the project,(though I can still negotiate but the Architect structural and services Engineers must be registered with their individual professional bodies) or else you are going to face plenty wahala from LABSCA , BCPG etc

Of course the magnitude & location of a project will definitely influence choice of architect & engineers.

Lol...na so
At an affordable rate with seal 250k for both tho location matters.
250k with no approval oo.
Architectural files might contain 20-30files
Present duplex am working on has 26files.
Location ibeju Lekki.
5bedroom duplex with pent/patio.
Construction to start middle May.
Structural files as well abt 30files.
So imagine abt 55-60files so it's pass just two design in negating one of your statement up there.

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?

Babalawo style �

You could get from..

1. There's a place at Trans / Ajoke plaza axis where the guy sells furniture and other things from Germany.

2. There's a place after Concord school, before high court on Ring Road. Just look up you'd see it.

3. Lifemate is at 2nd floor, Cocoa Mall.

Interesting... if you indeed visit that VAVA store, please i'll like to have a review from you if you don't mind.

The owner is a friend and he will be most pleased to get an independent, unsolicited review, especially from someone like you.

Starting from the first page to the external details for architectural files and all columns drawings n details for structural files.
After all plotting of the result(the pages) on AutoCAD or any software the architect or the engineer might be using is abt 55files to 60files page by page or lemme use sheet by sheet.
We normally use e.g: sheet no; A101 till u get to d last file maybe A126

It could even be more than that depending on how professional and the level of the details the client wants and also the commission given to the Architect .
All this said I know I can still get the regular 8-pages of drawings also for your project all Nash money matter
Good morning Everybody.

Exactly!
You have really spoken my mind.
Thanks.
Professionality,clients request and as said commission given to the architect.
One of my client termed it "retainment fee".
lol,there are sometimes some clients are just wonderful and understanding.
No need to talk much or even ask for some certain things before they will give one.

Well,fingers are not equal.
More of God's blessing I pray.

And on the flip side, full plans are on eBay for $25 (N8,750).

Here, even with stringent building practice one can have it localized for as low as $100

I fart in the general direction of Nairaland Architects that don’t include floor plans on their non owner commissioned plans.

PS: I’m not taking about salad fart. I’m talking that one when I’ve eaten ewa and boiled eggs grin
