michlins: This made me smile. Almost makes me wish I had a building project to invite you to. From your mouth to God’s ears. That is the only way to build sustainable wealth and enjoy it with peace of mind. You don’t know the power of other people’s prayers until you are laden with curses from them. Stay strong, stay committed to your craft, getting where you want to be is not that hard. There’s a special blessing that accompanies honest work. 8 Likes 1 Share |

Kentucky404: The only thing that exists on this thread is shifting interests. Alliances are formed around personal interests and can shift at anytime to accommodate new motivations. Like Nigeria’s problems, the issues are infinite so you pick a battle or you conform. My pick is to continue to create awareness of nexthome / kobocity / brabus/ n3xt / brabusng’s atrocities. 7 Likes 1 Share |

Few days ago, I was just on Nairaland to find distressed sales (Lands and Houses) until I saw all the mentions, which I think warrants my response. Please Know that I'm not here to derail this thread by bringing up old issues. But If you want to know: - Bosun Shoyeye aka Brabus /'N3xt worked on my project in 2015. - We were not pleased with all his work. - He is very savvy with online presentations (cut and paste pictures etc) and can sweet talk you but under-delivers in real life. - Brabus also have serious integrity issues and very manipulative. - He always claim to have his hands full of ongoing projects so you can think he knows his onions well. Guys don't fall for this. - His arrogance is second to none. A simple "Dear customer I'm very sorry for how this whole thing went south, how can we fix it or make it better" could have solved 90% of all these issues with his previous clients. - He under quotes to beat other contractors. He will try to change the quotes after you've commence the project. ( This is where we first bumped heads) - He also doesn't respect client's confidentiality. These are my reasons why I will never recommend anyone I know to give their hard earn money to him. Again, Everyone is free to do as they pleases with their money. 10 Likes 1 Share |

3strikes: Is that all you’ve got? Brabus underquote to build a 3 floor building for you with just N12m ![]() Anyway, did you pay him extra money on your build? ![]() ![]() Was the project delivered within schedule or not? May I remind you of your pickup line when you called me... You seem to have forgotten how much you begged me and how you told me the stories of.... You seem to have forgotten your message to me when I completed your raft with meagre 2.5m using my marine boards and my dump truck to deliver sand. You’ve forgotten how you jumped for joy and told me you’ve never believed raft won’t cost less than 4.5m and how you’ve been watching closely to see if I’m not cutting corners. I can send you screenshots of some of your msgs though to refresh your memory or maybe you ask Kazeem ![]() ____ At what point did you realize Brabus work was unsatisfactory? Remember he doesn’t take money for a new milestone until the client is satisfied with the one paid for. Was it at the beginning or the middle or at the very end after he has delivered and moved on? Or you were saving it up?? ![]() ![]() The gullible ones will buy your stories. ____ Please stop doing this in front of your kids o because All liars will become a thief ![]() ![]() ____ I gave you the f*cking house you begged me for.

Re: General Topic Thread-To Discuss Anything And Everything in Building Construction by henrymor: 9:53pm On Apr 08, 2021 |
somehow:do you mean I don't need to floor other parts? I should just interlock the driveway and then spread the artificial grass on other parts without flooring it in as much as the compound is level. |
Re: General Topic Thread-To Discuss Anything And Everything in Building Construction by EgunMogaji2: 10:05pm On Apr 08, 2021 |
BrabusNG: Okay I think I got my wires crossed. You’re talking about materials used to stick tile to the floor? If so yes we don’t use cement, we use thin set mortar. |
Re: General Topic Thread-To Discuss Anything And Everything in Building Construction by BrabusNG: 10:12pm On Apr 08, 2021 |
EgunMogaji2: Yes. Supafix tiles adhesives fall into same category. Thinset mortar already have latex and polymer additives that aid good bonding. 1 Like |

BrabusNG: Nice. So how are you getting on with the rough and uneven concrete floor? Or is that just my guys punishing me for not supplying enough “pelebe” as at when due? ![]() |
Re: General Topic Thread-To Discuss Anything And Everything in Building Construction by BrabusNG: 10:23pm On Apr 08, 2021 |
EgunMogaji2: You really don’t need it 100% perfect it in order to manage uneven surfaces, you might want to try any of the following: - have a light screed over the uneven surface to make it even (1in should be fine) - mix the tiles adhesive with the conventional OPC cement+sand to cover the bumps and rough surfaces. This is exactly what the guy who bought from me in Ijebu Ode did. The project was a renovation job so he had a lot of uneven surfaces to work on. Until we improve our build processes, a lot of the cutting-edge solutions in the developed might not really work for us. ____ Remember you can manage to have a perfect leveled floor but the baba latis will still go ahead to mix on the floor. I’m currently having that challenge on my ongoing build. 1 Like |
Re: General Topic Thread-To Discuss Anything And Everything in Building Construction by diordaves(m): 10:24pm On Apr 08, 2021 |
BrabusNG: I think we've been here before. Adhesive is most cost effective on a polished off floor. On a tapped floor (Nigeria style) you will have the added challenge of first leveling off the floor at a cost to enable you use the adhesive proper as a gum. In this situation, you then use the adhesive very sparingly with huge savings. I noticed you didn't polish off your "German floor" or did I miss it? You are preparing to pour your decking, maybe you are not going to polish this off as well. In these circumstances, I'm not sure adhesive will be cost effective set against the time tested sand + cement as leveller. If you use adhesive also as a leveller, the cost outcome will be interesting and worthy of note for future reference. And also, the final aesthetic outcome of the layed tiles will also be interesting. Will the tiles be level? If adhesive turns out to be cheaper and with the same outcome, then adhesive is the way to go instead of interlocking the living room as some have previously suggested. 2 Likes |

diordaves: I really wish I knew the Ijebu Ode guy. He has had a good time with the adhesives. He has done both - using it as a leveller and using it for screed only. Unfortunately, he’s one of the silent NL folks Egunmogaji2 asked us to respect. He told me he wasn’t able to achieve 5sqm during his first use but I think he got it right afterwards. ______ Well, I have 2 bags that can cover 10sqm to play with from tomorrow. We can do some experiments. If this turns out well, I’d be looking at hoarding 2000 bags ![]() The +/- N2k price tag is quite attractive in time like this especially for those at finishing stage. |
