vickzie: Supported. As a first time supervisor, I wouldn’t expect you to be looking for areas to compromise. Foundation is a stage of work where everything need to be quality upfront. The few naira’s you’ll save today might lead to structural failure that’ll cost your client a lot more tomorrow or in the future. Do it right the first time. _______ Pic 1 - 3 shows a foundation without footing. You can’t see the crack and the deflections of the wall as a result of settlement. Pic 4 shows a foundation with footing. No issues. 1 Share

BrabusNG:It is a family member project so any amount saved is not my gain. I just want to do the right thing with the least cost. Thank you for the advice. |

Dijita:I don’t think anyone should blame them, am guilty of same attitude for personal reason. I do business with many contractors and builder on this platform that never had opportunity to see me in person. Sometimes I will be on the site, they won’t know am the one that give them the job. I like that way. |

Apologist02: Let's just assume least cost does not lead to least quality. As your very first project coming from a family member it's paramount you don't do short cuts especially for the foundation of the build. What is the nature of your land type? 1 Like |

kopell: Baba o! I can relate baba and understand your point but for ppl like us wey you give N50m - N100m job, doing hide and side no dey work o. I don’t bump into people but there are few times we just need to have unrestricted access to the Oga. I’m designing a project right now and my communication with the client must have shown to him my type of person. For every conversation we’ve had in the past two days I was engaged, there’s always a progress report. I’m not going to call you and say “Happy New Month Sir” or “Thank you for the job you gave us. God will bless you in Jesus name that we both serve” or “I hope you have not forgotten us sir” For every project I handle, there are thousand of decisions to be made and I will never take a unilateral decision without the approval of the Project Director (Home Owner). So if it’ll take me so long to achieve that then there’s a fundamental problem. I agree that some people do abuse the undue privilege given to them. 4 Likes |

BrabusNG:l understand your point, there is always going to be communication between clients and contractor to have better understand of what both want. In regards to your experience with a client that you can’t reach when in trouble with omo onile is mind boggling. My way of operation is completely different form that oooo 1 Like |

Dear Bosses in the house I need some heads up on what’s you understand between Half Casing & Full Casing in Borehole. I met a fellow landlord in the area I was building and he told me why go for FULL casing that the half casing is also good based on interactions he has had with geologists. He said the rocks drilled cannot collapse but the sedimentary and sandy part will collapse hence the half casing will take care of this part hence one does not need to case the hard rock sections. He also said some of this drillers can be tricky as they would know when the rock is struck and will use half casing and tell the client that its full casing they did for the client because the client had already paid for full casing. In this case the client loses because he paid for full casing but was given half casing. Please what’s your thoughts on full casing and half casing in terms of advantages & disadvantages? I greet you all sir/ma. CC: N3xt, Rotech,Spyder, abdulwastexx, Egunmogaji, Hajji the Don, plus all the experienced men and women in the house. Please your contributions is highly needed. 1 Like |

salisuammy:Wow congratulations madam, may almighty continue to bless your home, you’re good wife promoting her husband business. Most times is the other way, husband promoting wife business. This days many of these young ladies don’t care how their husband or boyfriend make money, they just like to spend money and more money. Some of them will even tell their men, don’t you see how A and Z is doing better go and do same. Some men without focus will fill less then man, will start losing track to do anything to bring money home. 3 Likes |

We agreed price...he delivered in less than 24hrs...my roof was completed within 48hrs...I have never met an honest business man in my life like him...this roof is best in the world...
