Soil test/investigation also called Geotechnical Survey is carried out by Soil Scientist. Interestingly, it is not enough to have anyone carry out soil investigation, the most important thing is to have the result confirmed in the Labs.

And they carry out so many types of tests ranging from CPT (Cone penetration Test) to SPT (Standard penetration test). Triaxial testing, Bearing Capacity Test, Borehole drilling and Geophysical survey, Pile integrity test and Pile construction, Pile load test and more.

The most common type of test carried out in Ajah area is CPT. Most building engineers rely on given datas for areas they're working on than carrying out the test.

You can build on any land provided you carry out preliminary site investigation.

1. A physical site investigation is a must before you make any land purchase.

2. Architects and builders must visit the site prior to design and estimation for any project.

I carried out soil investigation test for a client in 2011 (in Ogombo area) and the report turn out the client will require pile foundation to support the load coming on it. That's the end of the story, the client ended up not buying the land and that's wisdom. The client (a Nairalander) said he's fine parting with 500k to conduct a test than spending all his life fortune building a house. Till date the land is still undeveloped.

Updates dey.
They refused me using my workers ,they insist on doing the job, they are very very lazy and slow.
Will post pics later.

Sorry about that. I can imagine the cost of keeping your men on site without doing any work. Travel cost and the risks. I've been there before and I've placed a caveat on it. For now, my job is only limited to areas within 20km radius from H52.

Wishing you all the best!

Proper lighting design is very much an art, and one which involves consideration and skill.

Very nice work. very neat

Thank you. The pay too is very neat. Donatus is one of the finest sculptor I've ever come across. His works are faultless.

But a house is a sum of its part. You can have all the good designs in this world, if your painter is from (don't let me mention name), a good design may become something else.

Showroom Item: UPVC Toilet Door by WinTech

The main lure of UPVC doors for me, is their impressive durability; ruggedness and how it can withstand frequent usage over time.

Furthermore, as a constantly evolving home builder, I like to make a good first impression of my project.

WinTech got this one right and I've decided to install one in NextHome H52 as a sample for those clients who prefer affordable luxury finishes.

Here's something my main fabricator worked on in Ibadan Oluyole. (I think he worked with some Chinese guy to get this). That's the man to beat.

It's not the most perfect installation but it's a step out of the ordinary. However, we can always work to fine tune the job.

K-024 by NextHome - Cleverly Increasing the Livable Space, Making Best Use of the Attic.

The Challenge

* Need for an extra space in the master's suite inside the unused 3m high roof attic.
* Need for a Simple, Budget-friendly and Lesser Weight solution. Anything but concrete!

Making use of attic is a perfect idea to expand living space, however we often ignore it.

Follow us as we raised out 35m² from the attic for the master's use. The plan is to raise the floor using pier and beam. At the end of these, we should be able to squeeze out additional 60m² for the 2 master suites in the house.

Concern raised by Beta Testers!

Spillage on wooden floor - We are planning do a 50mm cement screed on the roughened surface of our wooden floor.
