You have said it all!
I once took my friend to acompany me to meet a client, the man talk to me like I came to beg him for money, I was only smiling and responding to him like everything is OK. On our way back home my friend said I surprised him for the first time, despite all what the man said I didn't react, lol , i replied him "wetin concern me, I am after his money not his reaction"

Good evening sir/ma,

Please I need your feedbacks on a Kobo Kobo project I intend on start towards the end of this year, it's a story unit of one bedroom flat on a 30/25ft land, I've also attached a copy of the intended building plan.

I'll really appreciate all your inputs, observations and will really be grateful if anyone can help me with a QS if possible, the project is in the northern part of the country, soil is hard and stable.

I must say it's really been worth the while reading through the first page to the present of this magnificent thread, the the time and selfless efforts made by the various experts here in dishing out valuable information to followers of the thread is exceedingly beyond comprehension.
I say a BIG Thank You to;

Thanks as I await your concerned reviews concerning my project

Please experts in the house, help me look at this quotation for a parapet. The house is a bungalow of 66.5 meters:

Donoppy:
So finally we let go the site engineer after several attempt to restore peace between my dad and him, he(my dad) accused the engineer of trying to frustrate him because he didn’t give the avenue for the engineer to rip him off and when I got to hear from the engineer’s side of the story he said my dad started behaving this way to him ever since he brought his QS to site who happens to be his childhood friend and he(the engineer) said the QS is going behind his back to condemn his work to my dad which I feel is just an overreaction from him ...
And the reason we had to bring in the QS in the first place is because the engineer barely even have time to come to the site because he’s working for a company , all he just does is come to site once a while to supervise the work and see if the workers did what he asked of them to do.
Well it’s a long story, but to cut it short . The QS who happens to have about 30+ yrs of experience(which could be true because I see he’s actually good at his QS thing) is now working together with my dad to continue but still I feel I need the presence of an engineer to do supervision and I want to ask , is it advisable if I should get another site engineer and at this point? And if I can should I just pay the engineer per day since I don’t think I would be needing him to be present everyday just some selected days where it’s important ,like to do the slab, column ,roofing and main works like that.
Please I need your suggestion as we are already at the stage where we will soon need to cast the slab.

rotecch77:


The quotation is a bit higher but not too much.

But at rotech building concept
We have another way of making this cast -in-situ
Concrete facial VERY CHEAP now by using Already made STEEL MOULD this will eliminate the PLANK by 90pec bcs we will still use few plank for the round top BEAM.

This will reduce your quotation by HALVE, YES and at the time taking to do it is also lesser

To cap it all you don’t need to plaster the parapet again bcs the final process will comes out neat.

Pics attached are the one we did for some
Member here in diff location.

We did it for the mini flat at the back of the duplex here in the pics

MrOkenwa:


I promised to give my review after placing order for Aluminium windows from Adedward, for my Low budget bungalow in Abeokuta. So, today has been very eventful at my site as he's presently installing the windows and at the same time installing the Aluminium long span roof.
All I can say is that Adedward is a perfect gentleman. His charges are highly competitive and very flexible. I changed my windows’ design midway into the job and he tagged along.
I later contracted the Aluminium roofing job to him, as elders will say, one good turn deserves another.
More importantly, he didn’t fall sick nor go into COVID-19 self isolation after collecting my hard earned money. He delivered my job as promised, without setting his eyes on me ‘cos I’m not in Nigeria.
My review is 5 star.
Caveat: I’m just a satisfied customer sharing my experience about him. Due diligence is still very important, as it’s always being advised here.

Ibibioson:
I'm happy for you my brother. I still believe there are people with integrity on this forum, despite my unfortunate experience with that fraudster called hsl-broker. He's now claiming he was kidnapped. First his dad died, then COVID19, after that he was in the hospital, now he was kidnapped.
I'm not in a hurry to go after him now. My money with him is now yielding interest daily. Dead or alive, I will get my money back with interest. He can bet on that

Stories with different versions means something serious is going on with that money, the kidnap version of the story means he paid a ransom (3M) before he was released ..... It's so unfortunate you are going through this. Someone here would know him or have a picture of him and phone numbers.... Make his picture and phone number go viral on social media, we will help you share. Go to computer village where people from every part of Lagos converge and post his pictures everywhere.

Contact information pls.

How much do you think this will cost? Is the person in Lagos?

boay:


That's serious ooo

Very nice innovation. I used the same for my ongoing project.

It’s very cheap, fast and easy. It eliminates unnecessary wastage.

Biztech05:

Good innovation boss !
This nice and unique.

I like the structure and ambience of the first two pics. Very well executed.

Hello building experts and enthusiasts.
I have a challenge and would like to get your professional views on it.

In the pics below, some of my windows (all facing one side of the duplex), have water patches all below the windows.

This happened both upstairs and ground floor.
The water dampness is not seen above the window and this came up during this raining season .

Any thoughts...?

Someone said it could be poor window installation.

I am lost at what to do about it as it has stalled screeding works.

How many likes for a tutorial on "HOW TO CALCULATE MATERIALS + LABOUR FOR UPPER SLAB (DECKING)"



The Irony is I've started for almost a year now but laziness won't gree me finish it

I honestly can’t say now but I know the guy’s doors are very expensive and you have to be very patient to use his service. It takes months to get a door.

As at 2013, we paid over 200k for Bedroom Doors

Note: I don’t sell doors neither am I recommending anyone.
