godello: Pex for me anyday, anytime but better soup na money kill am. If I have any client who’s not on tight strong budget and want a stress-free plumbing job, I’d recommend PEX (original one) with quality fittings. With these you can go to sleep with your eyes closed. 1 Like

hamtabfawaz: If you like call me 'winch' I no go vex, but I like the BEFORE floor pass the AFTER. No be 1980s terrazzo floor I dey see there so? That's a floor with character, history and originality. They don't make them that good anymore. A good scrub and waxing is all that floor needs. Well ancient and modern. Me, I be old time religion. I would not carpet over a 1980 terrazzo floor.

diordaves: Oga diordaves I no go call you 'winch' but make i just say you be man of 'Antiquity' ![]() Yes that's a terrazo floor. To be honest Sir, you've just said the truth about the durability & originality of this floor & I sincerely agree with you. I could remember vividly the Landlord of that house 'educated us (My self & the client) for about an 1hr telling us history & how durable & long lasting the Terrazzo Floor was. But just like you know "they don't make it standard like before" . It's better to go modern in terms of Aesthetics. The Terrazzo Floor doesn't really beautify your home. :My Opinion tho: Like have always said on this platform. (you just did) Lemme me drop a similar quote of yours again for others “Some like it in the pot three days old” Anyways, what do I know! Am just a Learner ![]() *°•HTF•°* 1 Like 1 Share |

DUNKA: As somewhat of an uncelebrated expert on this subject matter I think my solution back then was agreeable to most. 1) Set up a thread 2) Put the link in the signature Not saying it’s because of this specific issue but even the host of the thread doesn’t even post anymore here and I’ll suspect it’s partly because of this. We all have a right to express but let’s do it without becoming a nuisance. Again, I have no dog in this fight. I belong to all and I belong to none ![]() 2 Likes |

DFAMEGUY11S: Thank you so much for this sir, EgunMogaji2: Permit me to expatiate on the summary of Baba Egun's post I might not be very vocal or contribute to every topic been discussed on here, but i have been a member of this forum for a very long time. I also believe majority of peeps fall in this category too. We stay on the sidelines digesting every info at our disposal, and make an informed decision on who to patronize or engage as it were. When i am looking for a solution to my building challenges, i run to this thread for a way out, i have contacted some contractors here even when i have capable hands in my domain, but the way and manner they present their craft, selflessly and always ready to help has made me reach out to them to form a synergy, asides those that their prices are for the deep pockets. For those that are fond of always saying , talk to me/meet me on WhatsApp, please understand that you're likely telling one person to patronize you as against several hundreds or even thousands that read this thread regularly. what you fail to see is the information you want to give to just one person could benefit a wider audience if it were shared here, and believe me you, the possibilities are endless. I apologize for the long epistle, but we can all do better. thanks 5 Likes 2 Shares |

BrabusNG:Wow, who ever thought somebody could cut corners on the height of blocks. Nigerians I hail, we always pay attention to the strength of the blocks not the height and width. Another eye opening, take it or leave it, this exposure of different kinds of tricks to cheat, we'll make you have more enemies than friends. You are not prefect as we are not as well. People make mistakes in life and correct themselves to be better in there dealings. One thing that amazed me, if an induvial devoted their time to dig somebodies past and make it a duty. I wouldn't understand how that person have time for their own life. Like Dunka said, we are all mature people. People can take time to do their diligent on any contractor here before they make there decisions and who they choose to award their contract to. Even with all this spamming, the guy still excelling in getting contracts and continue to exhibit is knowledge and moving up in life. Can't we just let go. Enough is enough, this page is created to help qualify professionals to exhibit their knowledge at the same time as attracting potential customers. 5 Likes |

kopell: Baba, na Brabus! Brabus! we go dey shout till I launch my 2nd, 3rd and 4th project Respect to that bro who despite all odds say “Brabus, I’ve heard all the stories and read all the epistles.... let’s do this.” For me, this is what separate men from boys. _______ I’ve never put out ads for my company. So people like us don’t struggle for jobs because we operate in a terrain that’s largely untapped. I don’t see how any of the rants here will affect me because I don’t go beyond my set target a year. _______ My first 2 clients even though nairalanders are approached me from kobocity. In few weeks, we will be celebrating our first completed project without a shouting match on that platform. This means the system we built is working. Kudos to those who believed in us and those who threw stones at us. We’ve used all the stones to build a castle for self-builders and first time homeowners. My name remain Brabus.

EgunMogaji2: We are our own worst enemies. This is no different from a man using a saloon car menat for 5 passengers to carry 8 passengers and his only excuse is that the pump prices of fuel has increased. ________ Cement Update Reliable source have it that Lafarge Ewekoro plant is doing routine maintenance and only Lafarge Sagamu plant is operating at the moment. Even the Eastern plant is not operating. So production is happening in sagamu but there are too many bookings from other parts of the country that those who even booked for 20 trailers hardly get 10. This explains the increase in the price of cement. Cement price from the manufacturers remains ‘K’ The problems is coming from the distribution network and not from the manufacturers. As a matter of fact, Lafarge is trying to clear backlogs. 2 Likes |
