This Thread has been created for the Sole Purpose of Educating our Followers and The Nairaland Public in General how Achieve the Most Difficult and Demanding tax of all Architectural Programs "(Renovation)". If you go Through our other threads you'll notice we have been on renovation works for some time, but feel we have to document our renovation programs from now on.

This will be Starting from "LEKKI COUNTY HOMES". Built by Mega Monds Construction Limited. This 4 Bedroom Duplex plus Service Quarters have been Poorly finished and the Client, (a Guy with High Taste and an Eye for Good things, who will stop at nothing to get what he wants) has taxed us with the Job of Turning this into a Dream Home. So off we go.

Mr Skimanski Sir, the staircase if possible should be reconstructed. No structural supports for the half landing and flights just block walls.

Something is wrong with the height of this building.

It Doesn't Require a Structural Support for the Non-Landing as its reinforced connection between the German Floor DPC and First Floor Slab can carry the Flight of stairs.

What I agree with you on is the Height of the Building. It is terrible. I wander why they didn't just add one Coach of Brick Works. It means we will have to work hard to ensure that our finishing is top notch so as to cover-up the issue of height in this Building. For all the Flaws of Lekki Gardens Estate, I still commend them for not building Short Houses.

Being a residential building with relatively low imposed loads, I concur.

As regard finishing, you are one of the best.
