@Qc1. .... it takes courage to give someone a second chance when everything around you point to the opposite. It hurts more when the person you have given a second chance doesn't appreciate it and it comes to bite you eventually. Money is not easy to make so when one looses it, it hurts deeply. A builder should always be grateful that you called him to do a job among many, afterall you put food on his table. No one is more aggreived than the greiving. May the Lord replenish all you have lost. Life is a continuous learning process. Babalose 7 Likes |

@qc1. ..you are of the school of thought that believes "ninu ikoko dudu ni eko funfun ti jade" but sometimes a tiger never loses it stripes. I believe time proves all things and no one is a lost cause, if they are willing to learn from history. ninu ikoko dudu ni eko funfun ti jade means the white porridge comes from a black pot Babalose |

@brabus....it's good to live in a house and be eternally grateful to the builder. The deed is done with qc1's build, do all that's humanly possible to bring back that glimmer of hope and smile he ought to derive from his build. Sometimes in life, we make sacrifices to protect ones name. Babalose 1 Like |

ANBAKO:Good morning Oga The question is what do you want to buy? Imported aluminum or Nigerian oven baked aluminium? There are a few trusted imported aluminum companies which includes Mac tech, Bozac (Hajj Muftau's fav), there's also Qualitec and more.. The challenge is if they have what you want (quality and clolour). The only aluminum company that offers full Guage in Nigeria is Tower. I'm in their factory right now with my caliper. I've been to First, Standard and Tower (the three locally color coating companies in Nigeria). There's also no imported aluminum company that offers full Guage. They sell 0.35mm as 0.45mm and 0.45 as 0.55mm but that's a topic for another day.. 2 Likes 1 Share |

n3xt: Well, seem reasonable. After all, it takes 2 to tangle. From this analysis the client and the contractor were fully involved in the process. But unfortunately, d client may not charge for 'professional negligence' ------- Above all, It is present that count! It's good the will to be involved is their. All the best. |

A couple of days ago, I actually concluded that any other build, that I do will come with all aluminium roof gutters as standand and I am in the process of adjusting the ones that currently do not have gutters. My reason is related to both the foundation protection and the manage of torrential rains to avoid flooding spyder880: 1 Like |

KolaShangOne: @Kolashangone, I can attest to that. Went to about six of the imported aluminum coy 2 weeks ago with a caliper and discovered they sell their 0.35mm as 0.45mm and 0.45 as 0.55mm. I was not even allowed to measure in one of the factory. One thing observed is that a flat sheet of 0.35mm gives you around 0.43-0.44mm after corrugation.@Kolashangone, Please any reason for this? 1 Like |

Good morning house. Reply needed urgently. I want to do a cost comparison with what I am receiving on ground. What is the approximate cost to fence a land measuring 30 X 30 X 31 X 36 meters? Just a rough estimate is good thank you!!! |
Re: General Topic Thread-To Discuss Anything And Everything in Building Construction by FreeWorld23: 10:39am On Jun 23, 2016 |
skimanski:you are right Sir. Tho I have been making some calculation right now mere hearing the price to see if i can import those bricks if the demand in naija is high but I doubt that . |

vicol: Answering your last sentence, I guess it is because of the paint. Normally painting activity adds 150-200 microns to thickness when wet but "shrinks" to 100 micron when dry. 100micron is 0.1mm Do good for good to come your way!!! |
