Can any of you shed light on the issue of dealing with the council. Do you do that yourself or do you have the architect/foreman etc assist with that ? Also can anyone recommend an honest surveyor. Thanks

Inspection fees - 5,200 Occupation certificate - 7,000 Infrastructure fees - 6,390 Site board - 17,000 (payable annually as long as i am contructing!) Drawings Linen copy 1,500 Roads Section Fee - 20,000 The total is ridiculous......Effing thieves! Is anyone familiar with this? Are these newly introduced fees or what?

Are these newly introduced fees or what? yes all those charges are levied though apart from the site board fees the others will vary based on the size of the project and location. In some projects the road section fees is not there at all.(Dont ask me which ones I dont know how thet decide). the linen copy is a direct expenses by the developer, But yes approvals are a bit expensive these days Some you win some you lose

Try Aberdare hardware located in Kariobangi Light industries; near outering rd - Juja rd roundabout. I found their prices the most competitive and they offer free transport as long as it is within nairobi. They specializes in steel and they only sell genuine ones
