Good day gurus in the house and friends in diaspora. Please I'm monitoring a project for a friend who lives abroad. They just concluded the DPC and are working on the block work of the ground floor of the duplex.
While the plan shows the wardrobe position to be demarcated with blocks, the supervisor thinks block work for wardrobe is unnecessary and out of fashion. I am confused as my friend is a rigid person who might want to see his plan executed the way it was drawn unless if I could be convinced otherwise.
Now the question is, is it really out of fashion to build the wardrobe wall with blocks?

To me yes... I won't have a demarcated concrete/block wardrobe... I can change or re-arrange me room anytime I need.
Your friend may have his reasons, or may be, he is just an old-fashioned guy.

He who pays the piper dictates the tune Sir.

2 out of 6 bedrooms on my build have built in wardrobe by design.

It's used to add rigidity to a wall length and provides a strategic space for safety.

4nobody4every1:
Seconded, did same in my personal house

alstacs:
You see na where problem dey start be that o...why u no just do wetin your friend want jeje?


The honesty you have displayed here in asking this question. I will advise you adopt that honesty in asking the owner of the house which one he'll prefer, because at the end it all boils down to what the owner likes. What i know is that the block idea eats more room space than without the block idea.



Thank you very much, elders of the section, for the responses. When I put it to the owner, he asked me to find out what is better, of course with evidence. I think I will convince him to just stay off the blocks. The supervisor wins then, through more informed opinions of great guys here.

Spot on. All rooms for desmond flats gat the bricks partition. In my own case na make tenant no fit steal my wardrobe o. ... but of cos it helps to support the structure somehow too..

Lol @ tenant stealing your wardrobe, l dont think they will actually steal a wardrobe, a tenant that will stoop so low to dismantle and steal a wardrobe is poor than a shrine rat ,the rental unit l completed few months ago also has block partitioning

Oga egun

I'm sure you understand yoruba
I saw a set of creative lights here sometime. Good concept however I found the ceiling shadows distracting.

what's the point of a light that creates very dark shadows on the ceiling. Just me 2 cents oo.

Do as the owner wants. The challenge with Nigerian at home is that they never do want you ask them to do. They want to do I KNOW PASS the spender. you can suggest to the owner , but never go against his/her decision. Thanks

EgunMogaji:


You're 110% correct on this Sir.

I run into this at every stage of my build.

It's as if they think that I'm naturally dense because I leave overseas or they have to prove something to me that they too know stuff.

cindybaby22:

Dieumerci:

Congrats and welcome to the house.

Do you have the authentic survey plan for the plot?

If the area is fully developed, you can go ahead and remove the beacons. But if the area is not yet developed that is no structures around your plot, roads and drainages have not been mapped out then leave the beacons and just do your fence so that tomorrow you won't be accused of fencing outside the beacons especially if there is no survey yet.

Good Morning ladies & gentlemen.

Please I need advise regarding incorporating a Lift in a proposed block of flats. 3 Levels for now (i.e ground, 1st & 2nd floors)

In terms of number of floors, what does the building code (Lagos state) stipulate?

Kindly advise if you have any idea of cost estimate to acquire and install as well as yearly maintenance

Thank you.

msogunro:


Yes, she has. Thank you.
