Compliments of the season folks, Please I need some answers POP ceiling or Polystyrene Suspended Ceiling which of these two is the best and why? |
Re: General Topic Thread-To Discuss Anything And Everything in Building Construction by qwertyboss(m): 9:00am On Dec 24, 2022 |
3strikes:Evidently the POP is more suitable for aesthetics While suspended ceiling is often used too manipulate the ceiling levels to achieve a clear space especially when you have frequent drop beams but it's easier to maintain and get around with electrical wiring work 1 Like |

Compliments of the season to everyone. I have a question I would like to ask, can anyone recommend a specific exterior paint (westhershield). My painter recommended double design but I am sceptic. What's there now is Dulux and whilst it's OK, some places need to be repainted for example fence. It's unrecognisable. |

Dear fellow Nairalanders Just an update on the bad roofing work done for me by this quack ( Rotecch) which I complained of, few weeks ago on NL I spent another 2million naira plus to correct this terrible job done for me by this incompetent fellow, despite paying him over 2 million naira months ago for the same job but he used substandard materials and lack knowledge The roof job was terrible because: - no enough wood used for support - Roof was not slanting therefore retaining water on roof causing multiple leakages - 0.45mm aluminium was used instead of the 0.55mm I paid him for ( fraudulent) See steps for correction: Picture 1 : Original roof retaining water on roof thereby causing multiple roof leakages Picture 2: All original aluminium roof removed Picture 3: Non slanting roof…. Lack woods Picture 4: Non slanting roof corrected Picture 5 : New roof laid ROTECCH77, U remember u told NL I owed u 250k balance and I owned up saying it was meant to aid me in correction of your terrible job .. Can u see that the 250k is no where to the additional 2million I have spent…. U are thr one owing me 1.75million now but I let go and leave u in God s hands for justice I pray that any contractor/artisan that defrauds or collects money from hard working NLers but does terrible work will NEVER know peace or gain/profit � Rotecch, if u want to see a full video of your atrocities and d correction , u can notify me, I will send it to you …. 8 Likes

sonnie10:The guy is right I bought couple of them in September. Please don’t be deceived, many of those doors are made in Lekki free trade zone now. Proudly made in Nigeria. Shine your eyes for those shining once they are mostly good for indoor, many of them are made with compressed paper not even compressed woods. 1 Like

akinola98:So Sorry about this. Fixing a poorly installed roof is far more stressful. It also puts the roofers at more risk of falls from height, thereby they tend to charge more. More like double expenses for the homeowner. The good thing is that you got it sorted out already and you’re ready to let go of whatever you’ve spent to correct it. Rotech sir, it’s very evident that the roof was not properly installed. In as much as I blv that errors can occur, even with the best hands, the allegations of using inferior materials, when original ones were paid for is very uncalled for and shouldn’t happen, especially with jobs handled by someone of your caliber. Bigger projects have been credited to your name here. Kindly sort things out with him amicably Sir. Merry Christmas everyone. 12 Likes |

Coiner:It’s all depends on individual choice, I already share my experience with the doors. Go there talk to them the will explain everything to you, when I bought mine they offered me cheaper ones for 90k for 3ft other 3ft for 130 to 150k. Those rugged not fancy looking are better for outdoor, the fancy ones are better for indoor from my personal experience. 1 Like |

akinola98:So sad to read stories like this, imagine 1.7m wasted in this economy just because someone doesn’t do what they need to do right once. This is another example of people cutting corners, it’s always ends with wasting labor and resources. |

kopell: Actually I don’t want to talk on this matter again if not bcs of this latest version of the issue. They said we cut corner .. lolz anyway I don’t need to dwell much on it as argument. Even my own personal project I never used 0.45mm let alone client project. And more than 20 building that I have constructed here I never cut corner either you are there or not, I will do my work as it’s should be and move on to other project. I never cut corner on iron rod of about 8m ( original TMT Tiger) always Cement of about 3m Granite of 2m -Plumbing pipes and fittings Electrical pipe, DB etc It will now be aluminum of diff of N90k that I will cut corner … When I I can see diff of Almost 1.5m on iron rod only if I bought others low Brand ….. hmm. It’s well Here is the quotation from my roofer for this particular project, I can send more than 10 copies of some of my roofing quotation / payment to my roofer on diff job to show the type of gauge we used for our project not only that most of our cleint do see this when in use. * check the date, the time, and the gauge of the roof with the price then. Also the gerald roof part is on the list as well. How much do I want go gain from such act … pls am more than that sir, am not bragging. But what can I say here if God said thing will happened noting you can do than to face it and pray for such not to occur again bcs human being are destined to face difficulties in this life. It’s only God that is perfect, I pray to God to judge me according to my behaviors toward cleint and any others people in this life. YES If you haven’t encountered issue in your line of duty or in this life you will believed that’ others people with such issue presently are not perfect. Bye on this matter 5 Likes 1 Share
