MrOkenwa: Is he going to reassure mama that the rain water already in her house has not spoilt her belongings? Or what kind of reassurance will he give her? What would have prompt him not to have honour the contract within the shortest possible duration? Is there actually any crime for someone to turn down an offer? Some stories just no good to hear at all. We look up to people and before you know funny syoriesy start coming up which actually as supposed not to occur. ![]() ![]() 4 Likes |

zuraking: Whatever that prompt the moderator to come out now to speak is very very insignificant giving that there are even still other issues that have lingered that I felt should have been sorted out. Whatever that which is happening behind the scenes especially those who have helped in addressing certain issues, your efforts are well applauded but I think you all have to up your game. It's very very unprofessional for anyone to de-roof a living house with household items and leave it undone for more than 48 hours!¡!!!!! No matter the circumstances the contractor might be passing through it's just plain wickedness on his part. 8 Likes |

Dijita: The transaction ongoing here worth a lot more. Between 2014 and 2015, NextHome transacted over N500m in business over here. We can’t just keep talking about problems whenever issues arise, we need to work on systems to protect the contractors and the homeowners alike. At moment, I’m building my business to a level where I don’t even need your cash to provide you anything you need. We discussed doors. I can show you picture of the doors that’s currently ongoing in my yard. I don’t have to wait for your fund if I really mean business. The same thing with the openable burglar proofs. I bought quite some quantity of 16mm square rods and pipes to produce different designs and samples and also meet any order whenever it comes. Instead of reacting all the time issues arise, we should respond to these issues with a shift in our approach and strategies (the way we engage our artisans, contractors, building professionals and the way we conduct our businesses). 99% of the problem here is communication issues. 2 Likes |

I'm trying to understand something here, if a client give a job to a contractor for X amount, and the contractor fails to deliver, and the client asks for refund, is it the exact amount paid that should be refunded bearing in mind inflation, eg if I pay 10m when cement was 2350 to complete a bungalow and the contractor fails, won't it be absurd for the contractor to refund me same 10m, when I can no longer complete the project with the said 10m due to inflation 3 Likes |

skimanski: Hi Bro, Whatever has happened has not come to destroy you but to teach you. Please be strong and do everything you can to get the issues resolved ASAP and make your clients happy like you’ve always do. @Appdevt I feel your plight and can only say sorry for all the inconveniences this might have caused you and your family (especially the old woman). The allegation came to me as a rude shock because skimanski has never been found wanting and his works are iconic. I pray you can work this together and get the issues behind you. 1 Like |

lawyer: You started so well and ended up sounding like the people you are actually working hard to keep away from this forum. Threatening people with ban solves nothing, infact it encourages them to keep opening multiple accounts. I would love to address a point you brought up. You recommended alhaji muftau to seun. In the last year or two alhaji muftau's contribution has dwindled or becomenon existent. There was a time he mentioned he was no longer a moderator. He is someone I have been following since 2012, the wealth of experience and stability he brings to property section is immesurable. Sir if you can fix that relationship with seun and alhaji muftau, there might be no need for you to use a lot of your time to meddle in all this crisis. Shebi I have sounded well shey? Mr lawyer, if you want to ban me you can ban me now. I have made my point. 6 Likes |

GoodFaith: Sir, recession and covid wreck a lot of havoc on so many projects last year (especially big contractors). I was on the site of someone here on project inspection visit in the last quarter of 2020. I can remember his contractor came to request for variation on the roof project he was handling for him. It wasn’t a small amount as the project is very big. The lockdown wrecked a lot of people who were sitting on monies but couldn’t get their orders fulfilled because most companies aren’t working in full capacity. No one want to tie down their monies in midst of uncertainties. Between last December and this moment, the price of aluminum sheet has gone up by nothing less than N300 per m and most manufacturers who do 10 coils have scaled down to 7 coils and even lesser. We (manufacturers, service providers, homeowners, tradespeople) are going through a lot at moment and it’s wise for any contractor to allow the owners to provide them all the materials needed for a project or otherwise get their hands burnt. In December last year, I paid for a roof and when we were about to go and pick up in Lagos, we got information that price has increased and that they’ll refund our money to us. My closeness to system allowed us to get at old rate. My roofer wanted to collect the money and I told him “Don’t ever try it. We will never get it cheaper elsewhere and if we do the money won’t be complete again. Let me speak with Leon.” What I’m trying to pass across is at times some issues happen not because a contractor have evil intentions but because we operate in a chaotic business climate and no one seems to care. _______ Aluminium profiles is another crazy materials to watch. As at today, any smart window contractor must first confirm the market price before he gives quotation to his client. If not... it might end in tears like my friend michlins always say. 2 Likes |

MrOkenwa: Well in this forum there are so many things that happen behind the scene. What happens offline here exceeds that done online. If I'm not mistaken I think the client complained here sometime around December 2020 or thereabout......... My sympathy goes to the elderly woman of the house who is going through undue stress. 3 Likes |

Re: General Topic Thread-To Discuss Anything And Everything in Building Construction by bixton(m): 6:48pm On Feb 03, 2021 |
n3xt: Baba we understand all this things. The client mentioned about contacting the contractor around June/July.......can't say when actual cash payment was done but if this happened between July and October for cash transfers then the excuse of material price variation/availability should be something that must have been trashed. Now I do not think any roofer removes an old sheet without proper confirmation that the replacement is on site or on the way to the site especially when you know very well that the owner of the structure sleeps in the house. In this scenario you don't de-roof completely na. It's removed in bits and replaced accordingly. 5 Likes |
