@drdreluv I will need to see a floor plan atleast, to be able to give you an estimate. Without a floor plan, am either over-quoting for you or under-quoting and that's risky in this construction business.

Hello Sir,
Do you need concrete mixer recently?
We are China Factory.

Best regards

Work on site was a bit hectic yesterday and that's the reason I didn't have time to post an update. The demolished building foundation on site had to be dug out and the site grub and cleared to make it easy for the pile boring machine. Also sharp sand was delivered to site and the iron benders are working more efficiently so more reinforcement rings have been produced.

Today's work was a bit relieving, the concrete mixer was delivered to site this morning in preparation for the casting of the bored pile points. Also, the entrance slab collapsed when granite was delivered to site on Monday and it's being worked on. The drainage has been excavated and the side reinforcement have been put in place. Tomorrow the wood form-work will be done and casting of the slab will take place.

@HajjM, my oga you did not even ask about your humble servant.

Finishing the project has been top priority and we thank God we are about to wrap it up for the year. Much has been achieved and I will update them seperately now.

External painting of the building has been done, but just one coat for now to give us a feel of what we want. Once all other external works are done, we will apply the finishing coats. The walls were screeded before painting though.

Internal painting is ongoing.

The one we are using was moulded on request and its N1300/sq.m and I believe that's the prevailing price, but moulding it on request guarantees the quality and strength.

We are currently testing the eletrical wiring and fittings (switches, sockets, light fittings) to ensure all lights fittings and switches are in sync an ensuring there's no bridging on wires.

The change-over switches have been fixed and the electrical armoured cable has been buried and connected to the PHCN pole.

@BITSWORKS I've been a silent reader ever since i discovered your threads. its very rare to see someone this magnanimous cos am sure it isn't a child's play keeping people updated on this thread after a very long tiring day on site. I must say you've motivated and encouraged a young civil engineer like me. I would love to be a part of your team if given the opportunity. Thanks and God bless you abundantly!

PS; Did i mention i read your threads simultaneously when am chanced? I've learnt one or two things. God Bless you once again.
