Local knowledge

What building in Lagos involves.

Ground conditionsMuch of the Island and Lekki sits on reclaimed or waterlogged ground, so soil tests decide between raft and piled foundations.
Planning permitsBuilding plans need a planning permit from the Lagos State physical planning authority before work starts.
Construction stagesLagos inspects buildings at key stages of construction, so stage approvals are planned into the programme.
Drainage and floodingSite levels, drainage and setbacks are designed around heavy rainy-season flows.

Frequently asked questions

Which parts of Lagos do you build in?

Across Lagos, including Ikoyi, Victoria Island, Lekki, Ibeju-Lekki, Ikeja and the wider mainland.

Why do foundations cost more on the Island?

Reclaimed and waterlogged ground often needs raft or piled foundations. Soil tests tell us which, before the cost is fixed.

Do you obtain the Lagos planning permit?

Yes. We prepare and submit the application and follow it through to approval.

How long do Lagos approvals take?

It depends on the project and the authority’s workload. We plan design and procurement so the programme is ready the moment approval is issued.

Can you build in a gated estate with its own rules?

Yes. We work within estate guidelines and obtain estate approvals alongside state permits.
