you can get the doors between 90k to 120k, depends on the designs and level of finishing.

quality wood polish are used on such job, and an experienced spraying man for quality delivery.

this is not the 'kiakia' type of work because the wood may need some time to dry up to get a perfect finishing when polished.


As at 2012 that I first met Olumide, his bedroom doors are around 350k. His entrance doors are over 1.2m/door

You won’t contest the price if you see the finishing of the doors.

________

If we intend to use his doors on any project, we tell him immediately we start the foundation work. He does not use just any type of wood.
Recently he did a house in banana island where he use a 100 years old cedar. That door was one of the unique selling points of the luxury apartment.

________

I know there are lots of lookalikes but you can tell the big difference when you see Geometro Doors.

is this the normal H rod for an overhead tank? this looks very thin. I want to do one and I assume there must be something thicker than this right?
the H beans are 6 by 3 channel. There are like 8 by 4 and 8 by 8 and there are even smaller channels but they all depends on the load and needs. If you don't mind me asking, what kind of tank do you plan on doing

Please guys can anyone advise on the genuineness of the 50 years warranty been offered on stone coated roofing sheets? Money if you can chipped in it will be highly appreciated

Just add 50 years to your age.. I don't believe those word's. Warranty is usually on aluminium not colour change.

Nice doors.

But ehn, one entrance door for N1.2m price tag must led one to the promise land grin

Note: There are doors in those price ranges and some that cost more than that... not sure if the trees they used in the construction were bottle fed from nursery grin but people that could afford it do go for them.

The new price tag of some of the doors is even over N2m.

Nigerians are doing very fine in craft works now. It looks strong like those Israeli' own. Consider changing the handle. I like those small square-shaped handles that looks cute and heavy. But if the client is Ok with the current handle, no problem.

it's not enough information. What's the height, the size of tank(s) you intend to have. That will help me with determining the materials

Is there a website to see more of these doors or can you share more pix of them alongside various prices.

Also just out of curiosity what's the life span of the doors?

You can send pix of them to +2349.02777.9642 if it's more convenient.
Thanks.

How many of you have gotten approval to build in the southeast? Onitsha to be precise. I want to know how to go about it. Someone told me it's better to let the engineer that will do the build go for the approval. I am not on ground so I don't know how to go about it.

It may be a case of rising damp. It normally occures where there's no DPM and German floor.

It could be very difficult to arrest, but one sure way to minimize this situation is to keep water away from your foundation by flooring the compound with a rich mix ratio and bevel the flooring that water rushes away from the compound when it rains.

if you want to build with ease, Nnewi is your sure bet. Their lands are expensive but once you pay, you don't worry about anyone stopping your works. The usual issues of area boys stopping work and forcing you pay stipend anytime you bring material to site no dey. ..


Just buy your land, do the tradition of killing a "he goat" and settle the agents involved. Secure the land with fence and anytime you're ready, you can start building. That's one of the few things I love about this town
