Badgers14: The empty paint buckets belongs to the client. There's no argument in such things. The client can give some to the painter to keep to avoid unnecessary arguments. I think we had a similar discussion here years ago but relating to electrical cables that a client paid to supply and wire the house and the electrician wanted to collected about 4 cables left of various sizes!!! So does the cables belong to the electrician? Na only government jobs wey left over materials are kept back by the contractor. 1 Like |

bixton:this is a very dicey situation oh. Let's say for myself now eh, I will give you the price of doing a job and then buy materials for it and deliver to your site, whatever that's left,am going with them unless when they aren't worth the financial costs of traveling with them |

Badgers14: On a norm, as a painter you don't go away with empty paint buckets except otherwise stated by the client! Likewise cement n bamboo To some clients, it's a way to ascertain or say checkmate the painter as per the number of paints eventually brought to site n used on a site with good security records OH. In contract, the contractor (main) decides what happens to them To some clients, they have family members that will need them n will be willing to give out as gift for house warming likewise the family members will chop geng too 1 Like |

michlins: This analogy is not quite right. You deal with steel and what you quote for is a complete production of whatever. However, if a painter quotes for materials and labor separately, and is paid for both then the buckets belong to the client. It can only belong to the painter if he got a turnkey contract I.e. this is the house, I will give you a fully painted house for e.g. 1million. In this case all the client gets is a painted house and nothing more 4 Likes |

Re: General Topic Thread-To Discuss Anything And Everything in Building Construction by michlins(m): 6:50pm On May 30, 2021 |
flexyonline:this is exactly what I mean if the painter quoted for the job without the input of the client. Not quoting differently the labor cost and materials |

michlins: It's not a dicey situation. I am telling you how I have been operating. There are things which are not the norm but because clients allowed it not having any need for such. You see those paint buckets I keep some back and give some to the painter because I use the empty buckets in place for headpans during concrete works. Let me ask you a question if there was a left over of 4 full buckets of paints will you say the painter owns them all ? 2 Likes |

micgray100: A quick one Sir, Why don't we have signage boards(advertisement board) of engineering firms all around the streets or hung at the entrances of their firms detailing all they do like you did here .what you see is just a name tag for description Sir! Your works advertise you and the best way you can go about it here is to drop your watermarked previous works without saying much and peeps who needs it will definitely come to you. I'm not in anyway against you Sir, just let us dignify this professions abit as per how they were back in the days. I cum in peace ENGINEER 1 Like |

bixton:if his quote was to paint the house completely and you pay him,he owns whatever that's left including paints. If he quoted that he needs twenty buckets of paints and you paid and he brought them to site. Later, there's half tin left,na you get am. Play it out like this, I can give you my price of doing a tank stand and then knowing that I can't buy extra materials in your location, I can buy few extra materials just in case there's need for it. I own them after the work. But if I list materials you need and you pay for them, even the off cut isn't mine to take without you asking me to. I hope you understand the two situations 5 Likes |

michlins:If I pay you for painting my house you paint finish wan carry my buckets.... Work done on site is different from work done in ur workshop. Any remains of material used on the client's site is the client's. After wiring a house you don't go with remaining wires, sockets etc. The bricklayers don't go with the blocks remaining.. If you construct a head tank on my site, whatever is remaining is mine. 8 Likes |

[@/quote] And they added 48hrs delivery bla bla bla, only the desperate does that. If your are what you claimed to be, you will be too ashamed to post stuffs like that. It shows you not getting jobs baba mi. They are advertising their affiliate aspects sir! When I say post your jobs here, you should know it's either ongoing or previous jobs like @spyder and @next @rotech n the likes does without them shouting coren number infinity. Open a thread to showcase your job in the Abujas and Londons that you have done and u need not stress to show me round Abuja to prove what is not, you gonna see influx of nairalanders coming to you. @michlin showcased previous and ongoing jobs n we all can see how far he is now n still going. Have you ever seen Spyder, next n some others solicit for jobs openly and kinda desperately like you did up there like you advertising ponmo abi toothpaste! They post projects, jobs without 48hrs desperate claim. I will use my head better next time to pass through comments from self acclaimed n uashamed coren engineer like you If you sure of yourself and have live projects, let's see them here and no one is coming to your dm for anything.
