spyder880: wonder how this landlord will not feel like a waterlord since his land has been taken over by water

BlackPikiN:


Those are rice fields na.

Why dem go build house for water logged areas. Most places in Ebonyi na rice fields, (flat lands) full am. It iss always good to start the building in the raining season esp in parts on Ebonyi.

Hope I am right Oga sypder

prince_onx: @spyder:
No updates? Are you sure you will meet the deadline date of this project?

Geomac: @spyder880
Which is better ceiling before plastering or plastering before ceiling?
Thanks

spyder880:

Do your ceiling first, then plaster. That way, the cracks that will always exist between the wall and the ceiling could be closed with a good plastering job. I am doing a plastering work somewhere, maybe I will post some pictures of what I am saying later.

chuk007: spyder, i have noticed that you often use this type of stone in building than granite or chippings as some call it, can one use these stones and still have the same quality? More light on this.

chuk007: So you ar using gravel 100% in this Ebonyi Project?

bugmenot: Where do you guys store your materials on site? Especially in sparsely developed locations, and what do you do to ensure they are secured?

spyder880:

Thank you for this question, in my negotiation with my clients, I make sure I demand for two things, one is a store room where I can pack materials like cement and other "dry" space materials. In this store will also be the tools and fittings needed for the job. The room should always be locked and the key will be with my trusted supervisor on site with constant checks by me. (You saw the number we wrote on the cement stock a few pages back, to enhance accountability)

Another thing I ask for is a room where my workers will be sleeping, I prefer this resting room to be very close to the store room, like next door so my men can keep an eye on the materials store.

In sites far from occupied homes, I will ask my client to construct or fund the construction of a two room wooden work house where the above activities are done right inside the site. (Like in the Owerri project) we are loosening the wood in the Owerri project to use in the building now as my men can sleep inside the down portion now.

bugmenot:

Thanks for your prompt response, Spyder. Makes absolute sense. Can you give me a rough estimate of what it might cost to construct this two-room work house and possibly how long it takes? I think I might be needing one soon.

spyder880:

Send me your email add.

nelsonboi: Spyder. you are absolute doing a good job here Can you give me a rough estimate break down cost to construct a two story building of 6flats, 3bed rooms in each flat? I think I might be needing one soon. just by starting up with foundation then others steps can follow up bit by bit.
