dear house, we're researching for a new hotel brand to be introduced into the country, and we would be more than happy if you can give us your answer to this question. would you lodge in a hotel that offers cheap rates (5k downwards depending on the number of days paid for) but does not offer free Wi-Fi and a TV in the rooms. please, your honest answers would really be appreciated.
Due to the state of in-security in Nigeria today, the security of the hotel is paramount to me, WiFi is not important to me because I can subscribe to data via any mobile telecommunications company, TV is a must, so yes. I will pay more than 5000 naira if the hotel has mopol guarding the hotel, the security of the hotel environment is more important to me than anything and yes I will pay more and I have done that several times in Nigeria in the past

thanks for your contribution, the hotels would be located in safe neighbourhoods with armed security guards 24/7, CCTV cameras would be available on all common and exterior areas.Security measures would be regularly reviewed. please,would you don't mind if ceiling fans are provided instead of air conditioners? we're trying to see the possibility of providing a low cost but clean and efficient lodging with 24/7 electricity. so is air conditioning a must or would you accept ceiling fans as alternative for the right price?

Air-conditioned rooms is a must for me because the heat in Nigeria can sometimes be terrible, but to be honest with you, if you have to provide A/C in all the rooms, 5000 naira is too small because you have to factor in diesel for the standby generator, I also think most guests will prefer an air-conditioned room to ceiling fans .

Powdering is as a result of worms living inside the wood. How many no of wood has started powdering? If they are nogging woods you can replace them.
If they are principal components, you can get chemicals and apply directly into the holes.

Lol, I forgot to add SARS to the list, you are right though, SARS operatives in Nigeria are the current blood sucking demons called Armed robbers, I doubt if all the useless reforms / rebranding by the criminal politicians in Abuja can have any effect sad

Yes you have spoken the mind of the elders. Igwe is also aware of this development and has suggested we engage the village town crier immediately. Let's gather on the next Eke market day to complete the sacrifice with the foreigners head. I greet you my elders.

Picture credit goes to skimanski

I did mine in Delta State for N6,500 per frame all inclusive. That's fixing the frame, polishing/vanishing and hanging the door. Mind you, the dressing of the door- mortar work is not included.

Also note that my frames are pure mahogany locally crafted; no MDF or HDF. This has a bearing on price. I'm not sure but the picture you posted may be MDF or HDF so price comparison may conflict.

The achitrave or skirting as they call it in Nigeria will come later. So skirting price is not included.

I'm not sure though of using MDF/HDF for frames. It will need good engineering to support the doors long term. Or maybe the accompanying doors may not be heavy.

Hey everyone,

I have a question regarding the difference between lightening arrestor and earthing. What are the differences and benefits of the two?

I’m at the wiring stage now. We have a lightening arrestor installed already. I received a wiring quotation, but I’m not sure if earthing was included. I didn’t see any quote for green wires.

I read this question on another thread (link below) and I thought to ask the question here to get more response.

is it not against construction ethics to
use polymer to separate the foundation from the main building. I observed that the building has no german floor

pls the construction gurus enlighten novice like us
