The biggest drawback of SIP houses is security especially given the kinda ngeta-workers will grow in Kenya.
I haven't seen anybody who can explain this away in detail...

The SIP panel jointing is burglar-proof. Visit the show house at Kasarani opposite Warren concrete to get a real feel.

In Utawala, there are some cute storey houses in small plots.

@ architect, B.Timer or anybody familiar with the area, what are the sizes of those plots?

It is now hard or beyond reach of many to get a larger plot in the area.

In other words , is it possible to build a small but cute house in a 40feet x60feet plot?
