Good evening distinguish experts in the house. Please what's the average cost of survey for a plot of land in Lagos. Its actually a recently acquired property in mainland Lagos.

There are two kind. Blue copy and Red copy. I did the blue copy for a site am running in Ilupeju for 40k. The client had paid 400k plus for the red copy. The red copy will be lodge at the Ministry of Survey and can be used to process C.O while the blue copy is only for arch. drawings and approval running.

Congrats.. birthday wishes

Other state might be better since you plan to build an hostel and not residential building. Lagos is no go area alot scammers among the land agent. Hostel should be close to higher institution for a good return on investment(ROI). Outside Lagos will be a good location for your proposal.

Also, i thank God for another successful 365days in my life

I wish myself happy birthday

Good morning. Please while painting the interior of the house, we have 16 Litres of Silk Emulsion paint left. I want to know if I can use it to paint my 'parapet'. It's made of concrete.

The paint brand is Dulux

Morning All,

Its been a while since I left a review for anyone here.

It is my pleasure to commend two hardworking guys here.

We engaged Adedward and Gbadexy recently. Gbadexy as usual needs no introduction. A splendid guy to work with, Adedward is very hardworking, budget friendly and straightforward guy. He did a small roof job for us, supply wood, longspan roof, even found me a cheaper iron door and windows.

Keep up the good work guys.

Please is there any performance difference between installation of AC outdoor unit at lower level than the indoor unit level, and installation of both at same height level (both outdoor and indoor units).

I can see most installations are done with outdoor units installed at a lower level, I would like to consider same level installation to cut cost. Kindly educate me on the disadvantages.
Many thanks.

There is no performance different between the two so far the distance between them is not more than 15m. installing it at lower level makes the maintenance easier and there is no need of ladders.. But if you a storey buildin, you have no choice than having outdoor of the first floor installed at high level. Some people will prefer bringing down the upper floor outdoor to the ground floor.

Some design will have AC ledge on each floor while some will tell you that all outdoors to be installed on the roof. BUT remember the distance between indoors must not be more than 15m

There is a performance difference due to science (the weight of gasses).

The outside unit is the engine of the Air-conditioning system. It is usually installed at lower level for down houses or bungalow for easy access for maintenance.

The indoor unit is the vent. So the engine generate the cold air and pipe the air inside the apartment.

Now the science bit. Cold gas (cool air) is heavier than hot air. So in a room the hot air will be floating higher close to the ceiling and the cool air (gases) will be floating around the floor level.

So you install the A/C vent at lintel level to cool the hot air generated by the roof. This air when cooled become heavier and 'fall' down to floor level and the air at floor level will float to the top. And before you know it the whole room is cooled. This is air conditioning.

If you install the vent at floor level, the system will not be efficient. The system will struggle to cool the heat generated by the roof. In this scenario, you may notice your feet are cold but room as a whole is not optimally cool.
