Good day contractors n engineers in the house when you take carpenter for roofing work. is it best to pay daily (asin daily pay) or negotiate a contract sum or negotiate the contract days?

which ever one that suit you, to me daily pay slows down work. Because they will like to earn more by using more days on the project. But contract they do it fast and move on.

You can contact for your roofing woods if you've not gotten your woods. 08032339807.

Which ever one that pays you

the challenge is at the moment my carpenters are affected by the weather ( heavy rain) and since I'm doing daily pay I still get to pay the days wage.

on days when it doesn't rain they closed 3pm, I complained alot but to no avail.

Now compare that to the 62% increase in dollar
for copper
200% increase in local content which is petrol and diesel.
That would be an average of 130% increase in cost for them.

You are correct sir, the cost of diesel is now N830 / litre .. Even electricity tariff has also increase .. People are going through a lot in this country. may God help us .

Good afternoon to everyone. Nigerchin cable manufacturer release their new price list this week and percentage increase is about 35% for the single core cables. Remember the notification was sent 3 weeks before the implementation of the new price.

Now other cable manufactures are ready to follow the same procedure now since all of them are importing raw materials from oversea. Things are not working normal in this country. Imagine 35% increase and there is no regulatory body controlling price in this country of ours. God will help us . .

My Advice to people now is that if you have the opportunity to buy your cable and keep pls quickly do before others increase their price.

and other are yet to communicate their new price to distributors.

Negotiate a contract sum, this will save you time and unnecessary stress.
Let him be the one to handle his people, if you happen to be on site with them during work, you will observe how his workers (daily paid workers) will be stressing him.

How do you guys cope with some of these artisans. You give them a job and most of them never deliver the specs you want. There must be an error somewhere. No matter how little. Sometimes you just have to let go and make do with what they deliver else you will have no rest. 😀

From the POP guy doing very good inside and then making a mess outside with a slant job. To the frameless windows guy doing some windows that doesn't fit and hanging a few others inappropriately.😀 Then the Tiler did good jobs everywhere else but the bathroom.

They never give you a 💯% detailed job. When you complain, it sounds like you are asking for too much. To get what you want you have to be there and monitor the whole thing. Else they just do it haphazardly. Even when you ask them to redo, you will be spending extra on materials. Lose-lose situation. Sadly.

How can I forget the welder for the entrance gate. Nice simple job. Then forgot to file some welded areas. Leaving the otherwise beautiful job looking tacky.

Now, these are all very good artisans. If you see the finished job you will believe me. They have the capacity and capability to deliver the best. My question is, why shortchange? Why not give your best from the beginning to the end? We need to do better as a people, please.

Their defense is usually that I look at the tiny details and a lot of persons are not interested in that. So they get away with this everywhere else. Really? These people stressed the hell out of me.

Anyway, thank heavens we are done now. Thanks to everyone of you here who have contributed and still contributing to making this thread so invaluable. Wouldn't have done this without you all.

Gracias.

Perfection is not in their dictionary so sad

Good day house . has anyone done a roofing job before with a room in the roof sitting on the wooden tie beam. the king post is 16ft high. owner needs a 10x12 room in the roof.

Coiner:



Thank you so much for the detailed explanation. I appreciate.

You are welcome, bro.

Pls let us be careful about our wiring of our project or house. Somebody called me on Monday to inspect an apartment in IKOYI , they have electrical issues and three of their AC's got burnt in the last four month. We went there and carry out power audit. We discovered that all the socket outlets and AC switches has no earth cable . We saw earth pit chamber within the compound and also 4mm green earth cable run from earth pit to only ground floor distribution and there is no continuation to the first floor distribution board. Anytime there is surge in that area definitely it will affect one or two things in the house and this surge normally occur when there is power supply from PHCN. We plugged electric kettle to one of the socket outlets, the body of the kettle conduct electricity. The electrician only earth the distribution and not the entire house . The body of kitchen , the washing machine and some other electrical appliances are conducting

TAKE NOTE OF THE ANALYSIS BELOW

Lighting
You can use RED and BLACK cable only, reason is because there is no earth terminal in most of the light fittings they produce nowadays

SOCKET
2.5mm RED, BLACK and use 1.5mm green as the earth cable. And remember the same number of coils of cable is require for this. I have seen messages t from people requesting for 2.5mm
Red 3coils
Black 2coils
No green ...
The quantities above is wrong and incomplete
A. The quantities of RED must be the same with quantities of BLACK because they are both running from the same DB to each socket. The only area where we normally have more RED. than BLACK is when we are doing cable for lighting. The reason is that neutral doesn't connected to switch except you want to use smart switch

B. Earth cable is missing.and earth cable must have the same quantities as RED and BLACK

AC
4mm RED, BLACK and 2.5mm GREEN. And they must all have the same quantities since the are to connect to distribution boards down the AC switch .

Also the main earth cable to building always depend on the size of load cable used

If your load cable is 16mm IEE permit 10mm to serve as your earth cable.

Most time your earth cable can serve as neutral ONLY IF your neutral fails . That's why it very important and necessary to earth your building ..

If your neutral fail and there is no earth cable to serve as neutral your voltage can go as high as 300V and witt thus high voltage alot of things will get damage

Pls always insist on earth cable especially for your
