I understand the challenge but is it not better you reach out to the client for an amicable settlement rather than you sticking your head in the sand? Please don't let this matter degenerate beyond this, let it be resolved. n3xt: 2 Likes |

Beframia: One thing I can assure you is I don’t bury my head in any sand I’ve gotten my client’s QS to review his valuation on this issue thrice when I started to pick holes in the report and I didn’t make up those things I saw. That’s for you to understand how far we’ve gone. As at yesternight, I still left a message for my client that I’ll revert Tbh, I’m just trying to find a middle ground so everyone wins 1 Like |

Please builders in the house, I have some questions. I gave a welder to construct a sliding gate for me 2 weeks ago, he brought the gate today, and he said I will be the one to pay for the casting of the base where the gate will slide on. I thought the welder was supposed to do that as part of the gate installation. ? |

somehow:Its both, I mean 2 family home, one apartment for owner rent free as far he services his mortgage. The second apartment, income rental of average let even say $1,900 monthly, no be like Lagos when tenets pay one year rent and live rent free for 2 years battling case with you in court. This is how many people in the west thinks, that why many many of them with a lot of wealth are not investing in Nigeria. Owning home in Nigeria is to have placed for self. If look at it as business, then you most invest a lot of more money that can even make one more better money in the west. 1 Like |

n3xt: Does your client know that you are "trying to wrap your head around" the contrary figures you posted or you are wrapping your head in isolation? Do you have mutually agreed and signed documents to back up the contrary figures you quoted? If yes, have you presented these documents in a cordial way and manner to your clients to iron out the discrepancies (if there are any)? Or you just assume your client will tire out and the "problem" will go away? Have you accepted before now that you are going to restitute your client as your client from their post seems to be expecting your restitution? If I can remember, way back in one of your posts, you promised to restitute in no time. That the wait will not be long. If you had promised to restitute (as I remember you did in one of your posts), why are you "now wrapping your head"? Did the figures change after you have promised to restitute? Go back to your client with the documents you have (if you've not already done so) and trash out any gray areas (if there are indeed gray areas) and OFFER meaningful restitution (unless you are not accepting any liability). This will leave the ball in your client's court to accept the offer or not or even open up further options. In this situation, there will now be a direction of travel. "Wrapping your head" is just giving your client the classical run-around which is not on in this situation. 8 Likes |

I visited in an estate in the UK that beats the flats in Ikoyi. It had lovely lush fields. Play grounds for kids, extensive green spaces and pastures and kerbs for pedestrians. I compared the beauty of this large estate with the famous banana Island, and banana Island seemed a joke. The rent was £550 a month for a 2 bedroom flat. The landlord put up the flat for sale at £100,000. Only to see poorly planed flats selling for as much as £250million because it's banana Island. As elegant as these estates are abroad, the middle class can assess it. This is far from the case in Naija The other criminal offence is the advent of service charge. Naija estates are now asking residents who have bought houses at already outrageous prices to pay service charge of up to 2 million for year. What's then the use of owning your own property. 5 Likes |

hslbroker2: Hmmmmm The roads between both places are in pretty good shape but as far as I know you cannot get to PH without making stops at all the checkpoints as you get into Rivers State. Unless they treat bikes differently. I drive fast too but thread is not the time or place to speak on that (I don't ride bikes though), but if you said 6 hours, I would wager it is possible, but 4 hours? sounds like magic to me. If you truly, did it in 4 hours, maximum respect 1 Like |

kapelvej: You have answered yourself from your post. You told him to construct. If installation is not part of your discussions at the beginning, you are responsible for mounting your gate and its parts. Yes, your welder can be there during the installation to be sure they put the parts together appropriately. 5 Likes |
Re: General Topic Thread-To Discuss Anything And Everything in Building Construction by n3xt(m): 3:58am On Dec 04, 2021 |
kapelvej: Just as answered above. You paid for gate fabrication/construction and not gate installation unless you both agreed his cost includes installation of the gate. Installation of gates involves many other tradesmen which includes but not limited to carpenters, concreters, diggers, electrician etc. 2 Likes |

FEGEITOK: Gbam-solutely! Especially with Naija real estate companies. I smiled when one was listing what I’d get if I buy from their estate (good road, electricity, perimeter fencing, drainage and security). I told him I know better and I actually live a street that has all he listed and we didn’t spend fortune to achieve it. We just included it in our construction budget and did a one time installation of infrastructures. Last year we dredged over 5km waterway to prevent flooding. We spent just 430k. No dramas, no harassment. Just simple donation by few. I’d still follow same route (gated community) if I’m doing any development in any state in Nigeria. I can’t be living as a tenant in my own property. You need to see the dramas and embarrassment when the estate managers are out to chase defaulters in my former place of residence. We’d be in traffic for several hours while the gate is locked to prevent defaulters from leaving the Estate. For me, it’s completely absurd and total rip-off. A lot of these property owners can actually afford to put up all these infrastructure (one-off) by themselves without having to revisit it every damn year. I’m talking about the big gate/big signage flashing estates and not the legitimate ones with solid management structure like Royal Gardens Estate, Osborne etc #sharedcost #gatedcommunity 3 Likes |

n3xt: 24th of November was when you reached out to me for a "resolution", a day before the first deadline. Then I told you everything must be sorted before month end (November). I didn't hear anything from you, I tried calling you, your number kept saying "on another call for days" I left you short messages asking for updates. You only left "Good morning sir" on the 29th and nothing again till 2nd of December stating you have been "incommunicado" since, then said you will "revert ". In 9 days, you said nothing about the refund, so what are you saying here? All I know is that my refund must come within 7 days (day 2 counting). This is a termination that happened since September 25th. Enough said. 4 Likes |
