For you potential customers that are still in doubt, I can assure you that Imran Roofing is � legit and trusted. You don't need to go to his office(but if you're scared you can but I can assure you'll regret going there), just call him (08085310359) and give him your site address. He'll send his men down without you paying a kobo to measure and give you the quotation for free. What else do you expect from a reputable organization like Imran Roofing. Back to my project, I told him what I wanted, made the payment on Monday, he started production immediately and on Tuesday they (6 installers) are already at the site with all materials to start the job at the site as early as 6:45am and at about3pm they're done. Thanks so much Imran Roofing, I'm so so grateful for a job well done. 3 Likes

You can’t work for my type of clients regardless of how many titles and certificates you hold if you can’t make their dreams come into reality at the most affordable price.

Make you no go Ijebu for me o. ________ I was at a conference some few years ago in Intercontinental Lagos and some young fresh undergrads representing Brolls were sitting next to me. While Afolabi Imoukhuede was thrilling the audience with his presentation, the young lads were amazed. I told them “In this industry, you need vast experience to become an industry leader.” Imoukhuede is now the Special Adviser to the Presidency on Job Creation and Youth Employment. Some many professors came to read their thesis to us at that conference but... even companies came with their boring datas and histories. Afolabi showed us what’s possible and his projects in Ikorodu, Lagos state. How he moved people from here to there. ______ A new day has dawn. 2 Likes 1 Share |

My own is this,who can start importing this type of materials into the Nigeria market. Many people are tired of wrought and will want to try something minimalistic. Good morning everyone

micgray100: What about a glass rendition protected by a burglary inside? |
Re: General Topic Thread-To Discuss Anything And Everything in Building Construction by n3xt(m): 8:46am On Mar 17, 2021 |
michlins: It’s available in Lagos. The truth is this material can not replace wrought iron designs and most of the ones I’ve seen around aren’t well stenciled. We’ve also discussed and shared better designs here many years ago before this came to naija. Better designs can be achieved with polycarbonate - a better alternative to glass - which a lot of us in the construction industry aren’t exploring. Polycarbonate has an impact resistance 200 times better than glass. #babalati 4 Likes |

somehow: Is allowed... The burglary keep it secure from petty Intruders... Most shops outlet in shoprite Alausa that did internal burglary didn't get bugled during the Endsars protest... Many shops I know withing Awolowo way at ikeja that did buglary after glass got protected to a certain extent.. We leave in an insecure country... Households should be well reinforced to keep Intruders away.. All this minimalistic design are good for developed world.. But not Naija...

Good day great men, I'm currently at the roofing stage of my project situated in the north. I've got 3 people to estimate roofing sheets and their estimates are wide apart- 410, 500 and 550 sqm. From your experience, is that the artisans have problems with measurement or it is just a form of cheating? 1 Like |

hamtabfawaz: Shhh! I’m in a niche business so I raise the bar so high that I never have to worry about competition. I always think of WIN-WIN in my business relationships. To the many young guys out there following my posts and looking for internship, I want to encourage you to go to the last mile, it’s rarely crowded. Be the standard to follow where there’s none. Always think of how to add value in your project and NOT how to solve your family problems. 3 Likes |

@micgray100 while I agree with most of your points! Let's clear this ![]()
If I were to build a glass shop in Ikorodu! I definitely wouldn't use a breakable glass that can be vandalized! ![]() ![]() WE ALL NOTICED SOMETHING ON THIS THREAD... THE PROFFESSIONAL ARE NOT REALLY GETTING JOBS... YOU KNOW WHY... WE ARE NOT TRAINED MARKETTERS... AND ALSO CANT TAKE NON SENSE FROM CLIENTS.. OUR RELATIONSHIP WITH CLIENTS IS WORST... AND WE BELIEVE THE JOB WILL FIND US... WHICH IS AFFECTING MOST PROFFESSIONALS... NOT ALL @micgray100 Forget being a professional Marketer You can't be a Professional & you don't know to engage your clients, like you said “your relationship with clients is worst” isn't that awkward? Well on the other hand «Jobs can actually find you, if your previous job is exceptional & very neat» ! But Most Times hunting for job is the way! (Through Ads, connection & other necessary means) Finally love that your quote about @n3xt “More than a trained Marketer' he knows how to have positive discussions with his clients!” Perhaps the reason his clients will chose him over & over again! ![]() Well, what do I know! After all Am Just a LEARNER. ![]() SALAM 3 Likes |
