I must say that I love this building. This is by far the project you have done which I wish is mine. I have a fear for heights so upstairs no be for me.

But this bungalow will give my neighbors a feel of upstairs while ensuring I don't climb stairs at the end of business day. If this isn't two in one combo deal, I don't know what is.


Yes before you ask, over here we build to intimidate neighbors and friends and enemies alike. That's why our roof is always very tall

This Life no balance indeed. Person wey construct high structures, come get phobia for height. ��

I do it for the money aside that,no way. But even the money no dey allow me climb to the top. One time I tried it, I wanted to die. And it was just 28ft that day

Oga Michlins, you are climbing and working on 40ft of water stanchion and still scared of height?

But Oga @Spyder880, for real this is the kind of house meant for ppl like me with almost 7ft tall. I am surely following this house well, well. Good work.

This is very true. These are the buildings I found in one small village in Anambrastate, all very close to each other. In this part of the world, the roof makes a statement of it's own, the colour, the height and the designs adds to the elegance of the environment.

Thank you my Oga, I raised the lintel level of this house so the doors and windows could be taller, it also befits the general look of the building. Welcome Sir.

It seems that some certain members of your team handle block works better than others.
The block work here is neat.

I agree with you, this is a new team I selected and started working with in the last two months, my previous main team has become sloppy and carefree because of a lot of factors. That team leader has become rich, as well as some key member of the team so they find it difficult to take instructions or corrections. They wont also take risks like working at heights and staying for long periods in a site.

The problem with Nigeria is the absence of good workers that are well trained on building skills, there are so few good workers that some neighbouring countries are filling up our vacancies while Nigerians are roaming the streets searching for work and easy money, while there is work right at their backyards.

Oga Spyder, is this kind of building a new trend? Is it owned by one from Brobdingnag (Gulliver's travel land of giants)? Of what use is the unusually high level of this home?
I guess I am struggling to understand the need for the height of this home? Can one shed some lights?

LOL. Everyone wan be oga na.

There are many opportunities in Construction especially at the artisan level but everyone is looking for white collar jobs that may pay less. Hardly do I see well-skilled masons idle. People in the business strive to retain skilled workers. Sadly, the Togolese and Ghanaians are taking over while some idle minds are still wailing about Buhari.

do you know what's funny about the whole thing, they'l will blame you for their lackluster attitude that got them sacked. According to them, it's you and not them that's at fault.


Nigeria and her people are all funny

Why is the doors opening still same 2.1m , if the house demands heights, the doors suppose to be upto 3m custom made to make a difference

Small doors height

Small window height..
