; twinskenny: I was stunned when I saw the windows. The thing made me to pity him as I was already eager to land the final punch Yes, we opened up additional large wall openings for windows. I so much love windows. One of the windows measured from one pillar to another of the room but na sliding window o. I like to have natural light penetrate inside rather than having the inside to be dark. Also better ventilation. 1 Like |

Focusmind:Just as predicted. I know you dont owe him or anyone here any explanation or review about the said guy. I dont know him personally, other than I've recently referred a subordinate at work to him recently. Sir, in as much as this can be true, the hslbroker guy didn't manage the situation properly. He wasnt sick when the money was being transferred into his account. Then, why didn't he return their money or directed them to where their materials were, if he had procured them? I directed somebody to contact him via his WhatsApp number that was copied on his thread and he responded well, the guy would have probably contacted him to seal a deal with him, after this Eid holiday if not for this thing that pop up. He has been persistently seeing the allegations against him here and some of his close associates here would have probably contacted him to ask him questions. He really shouldn't hinge his refusal to do the appropriate thing on those flimsy excuses. He lost his fone but he has been having access to Nairaland abi? 3m no be beans abeg. I think he has lost his reputation here, if he had any ab initio and any attempt to salvage his already dent reputation should be discouraged. His next victim may be someone dearie to you Sir. 7 Likes |

drkay: Please no body contacted me to launder any image, neither am I here to hold briefs for anybody. I gave my story and that is it. If you feel that you people have an unfinished business, get across to him. I got back to him and saw that my work had progressed against my initial thought. Please follow up with him if you have any issue. My thinking is that this kind of things are common with artisans. 3 Likes 2 Shares |

gbadexy:I might not be so accurate about the size, but would love to have those areas of the seating room that's not gonna be with wall paper screeded. As for type of paint, since am intending to try to manage cost I'd say the other part of the living room should be satin. While i would go with your advice on how to try to have all cost less. The bed rooms and living room aren't big. |

Chekitaut: Way to go! I was able to drive down parapet cost in three of my builds by investing in parapet concrete mold. It became a lot more interesting when we had to do a structural modification on a house. We were able to pull the roof and introduce a parapet without damaging the POP ceilings in the house. It’s the next best thing to the aluminum parapet which is very scarce now. 1 Like 2 Shares

To Avoid problems do the parapet, wood work n roofing in nearest interval. Not too long. I have seen a problem like DT in Ikate. Since qualitative work is not sure. I even have a house I want roof in Ikorodu now and some part of the parapet is like falling and has not taken long time. Don't even risk that with pre-cast fixing type. valencia2012: |

seglad2:You're indeed a saviour. Even though am disappointed for not getting any input by some other prominent commentators, engineers and building professionals on this thread. Block laying and setting is presently ongoing on the lintel and work would stop here until am present for parapet and roofing. Certainly a pre cast parapet is not on my list. Kindly send your email.

Good day, I told the person handling my building to introduce pillars at the 4 corners of the suck away but he said it’s not necessary. He did 6 pillars for the septic. Is this not going to pose any risk later on? Especially when car is parked on it?

Very glad HSLbroker is recovering.. I said it in my previous post. Things happen in life, someone or their close relatives gets sick, disappointed by his suppliers and end up not holding their end of the agreement. WHY not contact your clients A single post here on nairaland would have been a starter. Why wait until people are upset ,outraged , kicking up dust before you open up? In as much as this individual have stuff going on in their lives, so are the clients and suppliers ( as the case might be).. if someone took out a loan to take care of a project or robbed Peter to pay paul hoping to quickly finish up their build and raise money from rent to pay back the loan, how would that be fair to these clients and suppliers Communication communication communication... I went to draw debt one time from a guy owing me, we even live in different countries. On arrival, tracked him down at the club, dude was not even the bouncer, a bouncers P.A !! Followed him to his house , was living in a filthy neighborhood , I was asking him what happened... then there comes the story........ my annoyance was, why did you not tell me, hey brah I fell into bad times at the moment bla bla bla.. why do I have to travel all the way here for you to tell me this now the money have climbed up. Again, communication is the key!!! 8 Likes |
