Good evening all. I'm about to start fully remodeling of a property I purchased. Im not based at home, so my parents are to oversee the project. Please which is the best and cheapest way to deal with an engineer? Giving the project to him as a contract or making it a daily pay? If the latter, how much is the daily service fee for contractors in the Eastern part of the country (Aba) to be precise?. Trying to minimize expenses to the least possible. Every contribution will be well appreciated embarassed
personally, I don't think there's a sure way to go about it so far you and your people aren't experienced. Just find a good engineer who's truthful. If you insist on daily pay and he drags your work for months. Just find a good engineer and he will deliver your work

Is this next not the brabus of a guy?

Packaging, as it relates to these POP and Board, seems familiar.

If he is, everyone should be careful of him. He's a fraud!

Sorry I realised the door I was talking about looks nothing like the first picture but I have the exact door you first posted. Picture is attached. It's a Spanish door.

The other door I mentioned is just plain hardwood (Brazilian) and like I earlier said you would need to get a carpenter to create the matching frame, carve out handle point & get you accessories. Picture is also attached


Please let me have your cost for the Spanish Door. It’s the exact door I’m looking for.

@babeline pls kindly help me remove my email from your reply I’ve received and replied your email

Tnx.

Good evening all.

What's the current price of actual 20Tons plaster sand?

I need 3*20tons but from someone that would guarantee 20tons to be exact and also not sell sharp sand in place of plaster sand.

There have been dishonesty ab-initio from him that's why we can't trust him no more. But if I am to negotiate for a contract, what's the least and maximum price I can bargain for? A remodeling of a 4 bedroom storey building and roofing inclusive.

sir please, some pictures I have are above the 4mb limit of Nairaland and I'm limited by the inability to share most pictures. I have samples of gates that range from 150,000 to 700,000 depending on the materials used. The most expensive ones are made with wrought iron while the economic ones are made with 2mm charka plates. If my methods doesn't impress you, kindly suffice me with ideas on how to grow.

Is he supposed to send in pictures of all gates and their prices here? Haggling can be involved when he lists his rates. Are he and the potential buyer meant to have that back & forth exchange here? Allow him run his business the way he sees fit

Most companies stopped using asbestos to produce ceiling boards. Nigerite stopped in 2001. What they produce now is fibercement Kalsiboards. Made from a mixture of sand, cement and wood pulp. I will also be using the 1.2m x 1.2m (3mm thick) for both rooms and sitting room. But make sure you buy good quality brand like nigerite and drywall tape for smooth finish.

Please what's wrong with asbestos? I am currently considering using it for my rooms and pop for the parlour. Although without the tie rod.
Thanks

People say abestos is poisonous to human's health but that is where they born and trained us till now, I took up a project and my client did not want to spend much so we concluded on using nigerite boards for pop ceiling and it came out well after screening just like pop ceiling designs. You can contact a good carpenter and give him the design to do, it will come out fine
