Tigerkenn Homes Ltd, Annual summary of our activities 2024.

TIGERKENN HOMES LTD, OUR ANNUAL SUMMARY 2024.


Good day my people, we thank God for guiding us all through another year. This outgoing year 2024 was characterized by severe economic turmoil. We thought 2023 was bad enough, but 2024 surprised us in its negativity. Every economic indicators were showing that the country was still getting deeper in its economic woes, which was caused by government policy changes. Energy costs rose, cost of going around rose, and every other thing went up with them.

Consequently, the cost of materials, especially building materials because too high for most people. Building construction activities slowed down across the country, making other dependent business activities to also slow down. Some building projects had to stop totally. It will be noteworthy to state that this economic downturn affected our work at Tigerkenn Homes.

We could not meet up with a lot of our quoted jobs, due to the unrealistic nature of the budgets. Price rise continued to make a mess of ongoing projects to the extent that we had to discontinue some of our projects, as we were taking too much losses.

Also, due to the lack of disposable income of the masses, investment in landed properties became a venture reserved for the very rich only. As such we couldn't sell a lot of properties from our 2 estates, plus other lands we have for sale in other parts of the cities.

We also made conscious efforts to reposition our business, by investing in other sectors of the building industry value chain. We invested in shops, and stocked some stores with building materials. We are also continuing to re engeneer our operations to include more services, like the building and selling aspect of our services.

At the end of the year, we worked on about 8 buildings, completing 2 of them and handing them over to their new owners.

I wish to use this special opportunity to once again thank our clients, customers and suppliers. You were all great and really understood our plight in the past year 2024. Your patience and continued patronage is well appreciated. God will continue to bless you all.

We hope that 2025 will be better in the building industry, if the policies from the political class starts to bear fruits. We also urge you our investors to be patient with us as we continue to fine tune our services to serve you better. There is a very big space for more development.

Have a prosperity filled 2025 ahead.

Tigerkenn Homes property development: Our Service Policy.

We at Tigerkenn Homes have been in the forefront of building services delivery for the past 12 years. Many of our new and intending clients and customers always ask us how they can engage with us and get a detailed walkthrough of our services when it comes to building a new house.

We have decided to simplify the process by explaining to our clients, the best way we can attend to their needs faster, for a flawless start to their projects. The processes are described below.

1. How to contact us.

To contact us, a client should choose any one of the many channels of communication we have opened to the general public to reach out to us. You can reach us by phone call, email services, WhatsApp messages, or leaving a message in any of our online handles on Twitter (X), Nairaland, Blogger, or any other channels where we feature. Usually, we reply our messages to acknowledge receipt of your contact messages, and this sets up the second stage.

2. Provide us with your brief.

Your brief can come in the form of a detailed explanation of the work you want us to do for you, for simple works, we can gave a verbal discussion. For those who want lands or houses, we will request you to provide us with an address where we can send you pictures and details of the lands and houses available, together with their costs.
But for those who want us to help them erect new buildings, we will request they send us detailed building plan(s). For those who dont have building plans, we will go to the next stage.

3. Contacting our in-house architect

We have an architect who have always been working with us at Tigerkenn Homes. Prospective clients will be asked to brief our architects. They will be led through a variety of building designs that match the size they have in mind, the design and the finish standards they desire. Our clients are expected to pay for their building plans and have it produced on their names, after the sizes of the land has been taken into consideration. Please note that in some circumstances, the architect will need to inspect the land, and see things for himself. Things that needs to be achieved during a physical site inspection is the size and topography of the land, the nearness to other buildings, slope, and road setbacks.

4. Costing your building.

When the architect is done with your building plans, we can then start the process of costing your building. We usually attach building costs from our experience of building same types of buildings. In extreme cases, we will request clients to speak to quantity surveyors who will work out likely building costs that will guide both the client and builders on how to finance the project. The client is also expected to pay for the external quantity survey.

5. We work in stages.

We will need to look at your building plans, then work out with you, how many stages of the project we can split the work. For example, if we are building a duplex of two floors for you, we will divide the building stages as follows;

Stage 1. Foundation and DPC
Stage 2. Ground floor block walls
Stage 3. Decking slab
Stage 4. First floor block walls
Stage 5. Parapet and roofing

We expect to collect payment in stages. When we get paid for the full estimate for the first stage, we immediately move into site and start work. We expect to be paid for the second stage as we approach 90% of the works involved in the first stage. This is to allow us plan our building materials procurement and be ready for the subsequent stages even as we are rounding off all works at the first stage.

6. Harmonious working relationships

We thrive on the number of clients we gave delivered complete building services to. As such we always try to work with our clients and their families in such a way that everyone will be satisfied with the processes involved in the construction process. We have very experienced workers, and we get better with each project we embark on. We aim to complete more projects, and add same to the number of completed projects we have.

Thank you for contacting us.

At Tigerkenn Homes, PERFECTION IS OUR GOAL, EXCELLENCE WILL BE TOLERATED.

This is the picture of the iron contraption we use to produce blocks.

Product Review: Cutix cables and wires

Among the wires and cables used in building construction of homes, commercial buildings and industrial complexes, there is a shining star among them. The name is cutix cables. Since I have been using and working with this brand of product for over 20 years, I think I quality to speak about the product and what you should expect while using it.

Cutix cables is a product of Cutix Plc, a company incorporated by law as a private limited liability company on the 4th of November 1982. The company was listed at the Nigerian stock exchange on August 12th 1987. The company has its head office at number 17 Umuanuka street, Otolo Nnewi, Anambra state.

Among the products they produce are;

1. Power cables
2. Stranded bare copper cables
3. Multi core solid wires
4. Single core solid
5. Multi core flex wires
6. Single core amoured cable
7. Single core non amoured
8. Multi core amoured cables
9. Multi core non amoured cables
10. Stripe cables
11. Single stranded stripe
12. Single stranded
13. Power cable
14. Aluminium twist

The qualities that make people keep coming back to buy more of cutix cables include these;

1. Standard length.
Cutix cables are cooled at 100 + 0.5 meters as against the recommended 100 metres specified in the Nigerian industrial standard (NIS)

2. Flame retardant.
Cutix cables does not support combustion. In the event of fire outbreak, cutix cables will not burn for more than 0.25mm, but rather extinguish in seconds.

3. Conductor diameter.
For each cable size, there is a specified conductor diameter. Cutix cables conform to these diameter as all their cables meet the required conductor gauge and resistance.

4. Concentricity.
A quality cable has its insulation evenly distributed around the conductor. The insulation of cutix cables is evenly distributed thereby eliminating any risk of current leakage and electrocution.

5. Ageing properties.
Cutix cables retain its properties for several years notwithstanding the weather conditions.

6. Annealing properties.
A quality, efficient and effective job delivery requires a quality product. Cutix cables are well annealed for ease of installation and usage.

Editor's note: Cutix cables are the most popular cables in the Nigerian building materials market. They are the first choice for the past 40 years, for people who can afford to buy quality products.

Plan your build and build your plan

If you have concluded plans on how to start your new house, congratulations! Building your new home is one of the most interesting achievements in life, but you must first plan it very well to avoid regrets. There are usually a lot of things you must consider before setting out to meet the professionals that will help you plan your new building. They include the following.

1. The intended use for the house

This is perhaps the most important consideration you will need to make, is this house going to be a holiday home, a continuous use house that you will live with your family, or a place you stay whenever you have business in the location. Do you plan to use some part of it as a commercial venture where you can collect rent by letting some rooms, or turning the front to a shop. These are some of the questions you need to ask yourself and have the answers before you go any further.

2. House type

There are many different types of buildings, the bungalow, duplex, twin duplex, duplex/flats, block of flats, shopping stores and soft contained apartments. You have to decide which will work well for your intended use. The neighborhood will play a role in what you choose, because there are different types of buildings that are suited for different neighborhoods. You have to consider the people that will stay in this building with you.

3. Contemporary or traditional building style

Of recent, Nigerian architectural designers has been favouring the contemporary building design over the hip roof, traditional building pattern that seemed to dominate the country's building scene in the 90s through the early 21st century. The new house owner has to sit down and study these two designs and make a choice on what he or she wants to build.

4. House features

The prospective house owner should first consider the features he needs in his building. Some love automated electrical fittings, solar powered designs, and some certain type of room arrangements to suit a particular need or needs. These features may also include central heating or air conditioning.

5. Family size and age

If you plan to live with your family, they should be well considered in every decision. Decisions like the number of rooms, layout of rooms and even the type of arrangement that will favour certain ages like the very young, and the very old should be put into consideration. People who plan to live with aged parents, inlaws or other relatives should plan their room layout with these in mind.

6. Family complexity

Let's face it, some men will have plans to marry two or more wives and live with them under one roof. The planning stage of their building is where they take care of the expected fallout of such family arrangement. Another aspect of it is for those who are planning to live with siblings, inlaws, friends and other visitors, either temporarily or permanently. The way they plan their building will differ from a man who only wants to marry one wife, and probably live with only his wife and children.

7. Land and weather conditions

In each location, there is this need to adhere to the land and weather conditions where you build, and make your plans accordingly. You must plan for the type of foundation you want to have, the expected weather conditions, is the place usually hot like Kano or cold like Jos? Is the place prone to flooding like Lagos or a dry, hard ground like Enugu? They all require different building approaches to ensure the weather doesn't become a problem in the future.

8. Plan your finances

Building a home is a huge financial task, for some people, their home is usually the biggest financial commitment they will ever make. It is better to plan the financial aspect of your building. This is because to start and be overwhelmed by the huge resources it will require will leave a sour taste in the mouth, for some people it will lead to the abandonment of the building due to lack of funds.
Whether you're planning on taking a loan, pulling money from savings, or planning to be taking out the funds through profits from an ongoing business(es), be sure to make good plans for each, to avoid surprises mid way into the building.

9. Plan with professionals

At this point, an architect, a structural engineer, a builder, among other building professionals should be on your call list. You should talk to as many as possible to find out what they know, or how experienced they are to take on your building. Do they have your time, can they give you good attention, do they show an understanding of the needs you have, can they act fast, do they have attitude problems? Are they honest people with a track record of integrity?

Choose your professionals with the care you will take to pick a surgeon. Mistakes could be very costly, and permanent.

10. Stick to your plans no matter the temptation

Finally, stick to your plan when you have chosen one. I have seen people who deviated from their building plans just because a friend or relative came around and told them that this type of building is no longer in vogue. People who get talked out of their intended building plans without good reasons may get confused and miss their intended targets. Don't get me wrong, taking a good advice, mostly from a knowledgeable professional and changing your mind is good, what we advice against is being tossed about by every random wind of suggestion, and thereby going off plan to please friends or relatives, not yourself.

Lead causes of building project abandonment

What are the lead causes of building project delays or abandonment?

They are everywhere in every city, wherever you look you will see uncompleted houses, or housing projects that had stayed under construction for a long period of time, usually the site will be inactive or totally abandoned. In some extreme cases, the delayed or abandoned houses will be prone to pilfering, or outright stealing of building materials and other valuable items in the compound. So what are the causes of these types of unfortunate situations? I will outline a few of the main reasons below.

1. Failure to plan with professionals.

Some people still do not understand that those trained in relevant fields of construction are well placed to understand a lot of things that needs to be done before a building is started. Some will think its costly to hire professionals, and they will attempt to do some of the works themselves. Failure to involve professional advice even before a building is started can lead to avoidable mistakes like to adherence to necessary set backs required for the building in the compound it will be. Another mistake it might lead to is not planning the layout of the rooms, or not providing the building with enough headroom to make the building functional. In cases like this, the owner of the building may spend more money correcting the errors, and might get frustrated over the difficulty in making the corrections, then abandon the project.

2. Check government regulations

Another leading cause of building delays or abandonment is lack of adherence to government building regulations. There are recommended set backs for the front of buildings, the sides, and to the fence and to other buildings. There are also specified building heights, some areas could also be zoned to be low or high density areas. The building owner/investor should find out these government regulations and ensure he adheres to them. Failure to follow government regulations can lead to work stoppages, building enforcement or outright building demolitions. To avoid surprises which could lead to projects abandonment, always check the government approval authorities for their regulations.

3. Lack of financial planning

Your building is usually a major financial item. A lot of resources are going to be deployed to make it successful. In fact, a lot of money will be spent building your house. It is important to plan well for these huge financial commitments, are you going to take out loans to build this house, do you have savings that can complete this house, or do you plan to spend from salaries as they come, or from profits and other passive income to fund this building? These are some of the most important things you have to consider to avoid situations where the building will need money to be spent and you dont have the money to continue spending, resulting in project delays or abandonment.

4. Soured relationships

There could be situation where the professional handling your building project behaves in a way that could be termed as unprofessional, and this has led to misunderstandings, quarrels and fights which can delay, or force a stop to an ongoing building project.
There could also be a situation where the building professional, is fighting for control of the site with the relatives of the owner/investor, or even the paid staff of the the owners or investors due to some unplanned events that may occur in the life of the building project. These two mentioned scenarios, when not properly managed can lead to serious problems that can lead to project delays, and possible abandonment as each side tries to assert their authority over the project. When two elephants fight, the grass suffers, the grass in this case is the house building project.

5. Sickness/Demise of the building owner/key investor

Of course when the person who is most involved in the release of funds for the continuation of a building project suddenly falls sick passes on without an agreed plan of succession, the project will be forced to stop. This is why people should make their plans to ensure the continuation of their projects and programs even when they are indisposed. These plans could come in the form of a planned funding process fixed with the bank or other escrow services, or prepare their wills and place instructions with their financial planners or managers to continue a project whether they are there or not.

The technology of manually molded blocks for building projects

Some call it blocks while others call it 'sandcrete', this is an important building material which we get by mixing powdered cement, sharp sand and water in a ratio made to suit the job it was produced for. You might wonder why I used the phrase 'in a ratio made to suit the job it was produced for'? Okay,  there are many uses for blocks apart from using it to raise the walls in homes and fences. Blocks could be used for a variety of works, including

1. Walling of a house
2. Making a fence wall
3. Building a generator house or any other structure that will have vibrating equipment inside
4. Effluent waste pits or soak away tanks.

Because of the various uses for blocks, the mixing ratio cannot be the same, we tend to reduce the ratio of sand to a bag of cement if we want a more solid mix or a block product which can do more than covering the walls of a house. I will like to mention here that most houses, especially those built with reinforced concrete columns and metal rods, blocks don't bear much loads, this is why you see houses built without blocks at first, the builder will first raise the columns and deck the first floor, then continue with another set of columns which will bear the next floor, and up and up we go.

There are many different types of blocks in modern building, these include;

1. 9" hollow blocks
2. 6" hollow blocks
3. 6" solid blocks
4. 5" solid blocks
5. The fancy blocks for decorative use

These blocks could be used according to the specifications of the building plan you are using. Most houses with more than one floors uses the 9" blocks on the ground floor and maybe the next few floors, but as a house rises in height, it is recommended that the weight of the blocks on the top floors be reduced, ie. If you use 9" blocks to do a ground floor and the next few floor, use 6" to do the topmost floor to ease the weight on the columns, beams and foundation.

There are two major ways of producing blocks, the first is the older method of using manual labour. Skilled block makers using a metal contraption called a mold, they use this mold to compress mixed cement/sand/water to form blocks and leave them on the ground to set.
The second method was a product of industialization and the need for increased output to meet builders demand. A machine was invented to help compress mixed sand and produce blocks. This is the type we call the machine made blocks. This machine uses vibration method to compess blocks as against the manual method. So we will call this second method the vibrated blocks method.

Which one is stronger? Well, it still depends on the mixing ratio, because it is what you mix that the machine will vibrate. I have seen many breakages among machine vibrated blocks as well with hand made blocks. (I will treat this in a new topic)

Apart from bad mixing ratios, which happens when some block makers add too much sand to the mix ratio to get more yield of blocks, some other things can cause blocks to come out in a bad condition which can affect the quality of the project. These other conditions include;

1. Using bad/expired cement

Due to the prevailing economic conditions, some block makers tend to go for very cheap cement which may not have the required quality to hold a solid block. These blocks break soon after they are made. Some cement sellers who hoard cement keep the cement for so long that the quality of the cement is compromised, by this I mean that the cement will lack some of the quality needed to make blocks as the binding agent present in cement may have become weaker. Another thing to note with cement is that some cement sellers rebag cement, removing and reducing the original quantity of cement from the factory. As a consequence the ratio you thought you are using to produce a given quantity is no longer complete, making for a low quality block that can easily break before it is used for the project.

2. Quality of the sand

Some sands are coarse while some are soft. The sharp sand (coarse) is recommended for block making but it should not be too sharp, or it will not be very good for the quality of block. Some people pack dirty sand from the roadside, gutters and ponds. We recommend sharp sands packed from flowing water, or better still the beach. Care should be taken so the bigger pebbles and stones that mix with the sand are filtered out.

3. Rain

Make sure the weather is clear before you start making your blocks, this is because a freshly made block is softer than eggs, and when it rains, the whole blocks can melt and become formless. We have a way to protect the effects of rain if we must make blocks in the rainy season. We buy nylon sheets and use them to cover the freshly made blocks. Also ensure that there are no small erosion tracks passing from under the freshly made blocks.

4. Other domestic animals

Now, keep those your fowls, dogs and goats indoors while making blocks. A running fowl can break more that 10 blocks if it climbs on frshly made blocks, how much more the heavier mammals like goats, sheep, dogs and even cattle. I have seen freshly made blocks trampled upon by animals, and it leads to loss of time and resources.

The look of our 9 flats building project at Onitsha, the story so far.

Building houses is an enjoyable profession, especially when you stand back and look at the product of your everyday struggles to ensure a well built structure. 
The daily toil, the movement from place to place, the arrangement of workers and materials, they all start to make sense when you see the result of your efforts grow and grow in stature. We are happy to have come this far, we are looking forward to completing this project as soon as possible.

Why you should cast your steps with concrete before the decking slab

Basically, because it makes for more savings and adds to the ease of doing things on site. You remember that many people mount an extra set of stairs made of wood and use it temporarily to climb up to the decking to cast the slab with concrete. 

But we advise that where possible, builders should plan to build their steps and have it well reinforced, then use good concrete to cast this steps and then wait for a few days for the decking to cure, you can now proceed to cast your decking slab, using the steps you had already cast as an access point to climb up. Attached is a project where we had to cast the steps with concrete, even while still completing the decking wood framing. 08033350750.
