alstacs:@Bold Thank u sir It was the expenses i recorded for a similar size of plot i fenced in the north i posted. I even had to dig up my archive to bring it out because no one attented to person i quoted. I was suprised close to 5 persons were trying so hard to defame my post within a space of 2hrs when not even one attended to the person i quoted for close to three days before i quoted that person. Anything i post here is what i know is realistic in some part of the nation, if someone want to build a skyscrapper i won't post anything because i haven't executed such. But for those projects i have executed, i see no bad in sharing the little i know. & i remember clearly stating the figures are subject to change depending on location As labour, prices of materials & nature of land varies with location. 6 Likes |

I was watching the whole drama from the top of a mango tree An innocent person posted a question about how much and material it will take him to do a big fence. Some suspicious characters threw in figures and and dropped phone numbers for further engagement and possible slam dunking. Some concerned house members saw a rat and started screaming "everybody hold tight to your wallets o" They were screaming because some basic questions are not asked and they hurried to drop names and numbers, so it seems fishy. And the people that dropped numbers started throwing tantrums and calling names. Jumps down from the mango tree and picks my bicycle, if you wan beat me, come to our house, our mai guard na ex army captain 4 Likes |

Some info on lightening arrestor installation will be appreciated. Thanks |

rotecch77: Nor be so Oga mi. Your guys nor de try. Person ask simple question for 3 days no human reply am, person wey come reply became a victim or bashing and percussions... All professionals . The person that asked the question too became an object to be poached on with... contact me on whatsapp,... Send me a private email etc. I was tempted to look at the topic of thread again and I knew this thread has been very educative and supportive. However these days, e be like say things don de change. I hope I could post pix of my building projects someday.... I was focused, got better deals, knew what I was doing... All because of the information and support I got from this thread and the good people (not necessarily professionals) who were willing to share their experiences and knowledge. We need to keep that going here. You can save a life! 11 Likes 1 Share |

alstacs: Sorry to quote you. But who are the professionals here? Bro.....these so called NL have formed a habit of acting out character. So someone asked a specific question w.r.t to specific names and none responded after 3 days and just because another responded and all the drama started. If they even have the mind let them post here any of the quotes they gave to their clients on any recent work done and let others scrutinise it. Amongst themselves they know what they are doing. I have at least gone through most of their online posted works and funny enough, those who know what they are doing are doing good and those who think they are doing JB work and using engineering terms to back it up for just no good reason just to impress their clients are only out to waste the client's money. Wishing you all a wonderful day. Happy Eid El Maulud in advance. 9 Likes |

rotecch77:Which truth is bitter? For saying u guys are after personal intetest? Why didn't u attend to the question if u were so concerned? Why didn't u ask the necessary questions & post yours lets compare? Isn't that what the thread is for? But u wouldn't, because quoting takes time & resources, your question will be what will be my gain if i don't get the project? So why villify someone who was kind enough to post sth that he got? You guys don't know how selfish u guys look with this attitude... Someone posted a free quote which none of u could do & u talk about bitter truth? If u can't contribute directly on an issue, do not even criticize anyone who does, it has been a collective effort moving this thread on & sharing ideas. Many of u so called professionals hardly even contribute on issues that should have normally cost a service fee & we know why. Quantity surveyors are trained to quote projects & i do not see them coming for your heads each time u guys quote project from your experience....So those who got experience in any area of construction should also be allowed to share with some sense of appreciation...Nobody is paying anyone here...It doesn't make sense to bash someone who was kind enough to share info with his own resources, that is my point... No wonder the thread is becoming dry & deserted...Too much selfishness here.... 8 Likes 2 Shares |
