HQuadreal: Thanks, This doesnt have a contemporary look and commonly used for Transport service. This is also the reason why i haven't considered Sienna 2005-2010 models. I dont want something very big nor flashy, one of the reasons for not considering SUV. 2 Likes |
Car Talk / Kindly Recommend A Family Car(3 Rows) by nannymcphee(f): 2:57pm On Feb 13, 2022 |
hello house, Please can the expert in the house recommend a family car. I don't want an SUV. Family of 5, we have outgrown our current sedan I am considering the Sienna 2011 and the Previa 2011 model upwards. The Corolla Verso would have been ideal but the last row is too small. My issue with the Sienna 2011 upwards is, it's too big and long while the Previa doesn't seem to be common here in Nigeria, save for the lower models used for Transport service (my main concern bothers on parts availability and competent mechanics for it) 1. Is the Previa 2011 model upward a good car? 2. Please Can more recommendations be made for 3 Row family car factoring in ease of getting parts and availability of competent mechanics CC GAZZUZZ Nurey Mayor2013

Imas007: I do not see granite here? Do you already have granite or you intend to use sand + cement only? What is the size of your blocks? If it is 6", you can get already sawed 1x12, that way you don't get to pay for sawing. 2 of the sawed wood is sold for the price of 1no 1x12 wood. Ask for a breakdown of the sizes of the wood they are buying. Watchout, what you need is 1x12, some will sell 1x10 or 1x11 for you all in the name of that's "how they cut it these days" Go get the prices of the wood yourself, they might quote 2x2 or 2x3 for you to brace Arcs & co, you can use bamboo instead(it's cheaper) Try to get min of 2quotes from carpenter & iron bender Your transportation quote, ask o, does it cover loading & offloading? Abeg o, this your 70k trip of sand, is it 4in1 or 2in1 biko? 5 Likes |

hello to the house, I earlier put my plan up here for criticism. I got some reviews, saydfact as promised, helped with a redesign at no cost. Attached is the 1st brief. I will love to get the input of the house. One of the challenge he faced was that i told him to try to maintain the existing facade because the initial plan had already been approved by the estate body.

UC92: Thanks alot BrickDevo. @ UC92 Your input is valued. This following thread will give you my history. I have engaged and paid 3 architect so far. https://www.nairaland.com/6168555/please-kindly-criticize-3bedroom-plan (1st Architect) https://www.nairaland.com/2550211/general-topic-thread-to-discuss-anything/2288#103081162 (2nd & 3rd Architect) The 2bedroom/1bedroom BQ was redesigned by N3xt. (Architect 3) I didn't give N3xt this 3bedroom to review/redesign, wanted to start with the BQ. The BQ will soon be roofed and I am thinking of starting the foundation of the 3bedroom. I was intimidated with the cost of starting the 3bedroom but the experience of the BQ has allayed that. This is why i am bringing it to the house for review. it appears i will be needing a 4th Architect. so all reviews are highly welcome On the issue of two staircase, I requested for it. I wanted an entry and exit point for the 1st floor(in case of emergency and also, the need to be able to exit/access the house without visitors knowing you have come in or what you are bringing into the house) For the other 2 questions, I dont have the answer to them. Attached is a rough site plan, Rightside (BQ) is developed with those spacing. Leftside is undeveloped but those spacing are what MUST be maintained upon development.

gbadexy: Thanks, I have done extensive search to the best of my ability. Most post I found bothers on leakage for the Hidden Flat roof. My intended design isn't hidden and I haven't quite seen pros and cons for it hence my asking the house. Yes I like the design, just want to know the downside in terms of heat and Noise(rainfall) Hlsbroker2 has answered me on that, I do hope that all there is to it. Thanks once more |

UC92: Thanks, this was the initial design, I told the architect that I wanted access through the kitchen terrace into the house without those in the living room knowing. Imagine, visitors in the living room and you just came from the market, you will move all items in their full glare or you want to dodge out of the house through the back etc CC EgunMogaji2 |

Please I find the sitting room of the 1bedroom apartment too big, I intend to run a new wall as depicted by the red line to expand the sitting room of the 2bedroom. This extension is 600mm My question is, is this safe as per long term basis to run this new wall on the German Floor(3inches thick)? My foundation was done based on the drawing. Pls note, this is a bungalow with no parapet, just flat roof Thanks CC EgunMogaji2 n3xt Adegunle4 yosmen Josnac Heymus Beframia 2 Likes

mrsage: What about the money withdrawals? When you kill or injure someone to that extent due to self defence, you go to a lawyer or to the police. You dont run away especially under the circumstance. Its different if she was grabbed on the streets or in a corner was about to be raped or robbed. Self defense wont fly here. Multiple stab to the neck & thigh shows intent to kill. When he forced himself on her the 1st time, why didnt she leave the apartment? The pieces doesnt add up. Either she was contracted to kill him or there was another person who did the job or the drugs kicked in & made both of them violent 2 Likes 1 Share |

For the concrete. 1bag of cement, 8 headpan of sharp sand and 7headpan of granite( is this Ok too?) 4 coaches has been achieved and the surrounding roads are lower than the estate. Next stage is filling and German Floor I have insisted on the german floor, I am being pressed to continue building and do that later The area is not water logged, please what advantage does the German floor have and why should I do it?
