After painting the balustrades, let's move to the parapet........

I am just visualising how labourious and exhausting it would be for that guy to get up and off the ladder and the risk of falling when easier alternatives abundantly exist. That what you get when we as a country don't invest in safety and new ways of doing work.

That's a very innovative solution, but with the building this tight and so close to the fence, how can the motorised ladder move around the house? The setback at the back of that house is less than a meter. On the back line, there is an existing building very close to the new house.

Second point, cost. We used a total of N29,000 to hire these ladders for all the 7 days they painted at heights, how much do you think hiring the motorised ladder will cost to rent?

Who go pay?

Space wouldn't be a problem, there are different and innovative height equipment that can navigate difficult angles and length. They are very common standard and renting these equipment are not really costly compare to time save and productivity.

the issue isn't investing in such tools.

Issue is are you willing to pay for such services. If I give you a bill which includes the hiring of tools like that lifter, can you pay without telling me someone else is giving you a cheaper bill.


Until you can answer these questions honestly, don't come and be lecturing us on how to do better when you can't pay better

First off, my professional background, perchance for safety and its productivity output will make me encourage and pay for such equipment and I have hired them several times in the past.
In case you missed my drift I was not accusing Spyder for not providing such equipment and if he intends to get one, I don't think they are easily available or accessable. That's where technology investment comes in! How many of such equipment are available in our technical schools or higher professional institutions? How many of such equipment are available in our ministries of works nationwide? What effort or incentives has the government made to encourage private investors to invest in varieties of works equipment? What effort have the government made to buy technology? Etc.
We are in the age where technology goes to the highest bidder and I have been around the world, serious country do their part and encourage and support the private sector to bring the latest technology home. E.g Germany discovered the first Covid-19 vaccine but America spent the money for thorough research and to get the first supply to better their people (Yeah, I know what you are thinking, please save me that inferiority complex and religious buhaha!). If Nigeria is a serious country the government will pump huge fund into Innoson and other tech start-ups to drive their technology research and advancement, that's what I have seen worldwide.

Hello Sir,
Please where do i get the insulated/sandwich aluminium roofing sheet you talked about?
Thanks

Electrical board done in readiness for EEDC power connection........

We have completed and handed over this brand new building to the owners. Building every house is always challenging, but when we look back and see what God has blessed our clients with, through the work of our hands, we can only thank God and pray for more opportunities to work for more clients.

I especially thank my clients in this project, for their patience and for their understanding even in trying periods of the project. May God continue to bless and protect them with long life and more prosperity, for my suppliers and associates, may you remain resourceful and profitable, for my workers, the reward of a good work is more work, so let's go and repeat this somewhere else.

And especially for you my people, and especially again for my special Ogas in the house, my Oga Hajj Mufutau55, Oga Egunmogaji2, Oga Invertedhammer and all my friends here too numerous to mention, all of you, I cannot deny that your support has given us strength, even when it seems we will get tired. May God bless all of us and continue to protect us all, may prosperity and good health be your possession forever.

I thank you all.

God bless you Oga Spyder880. I am sure your Clients will be happy. You have always been an insipration to all of us here. Another good building delivered.

Another observation
The grade of unicem and falcons cement are rated @32.5r
Which is grade for non loading bearing structural
While Supaset,Bua are rated @42.5r which is suitable for loading bearing structural,what u take on this,am I correct?
And is there any effects of using local stone in construction, mostly in anambra,they use it for columns and footing,with mix 1:8:12, this mix is it correct concrete mix ratio

Grade of cement rated 32.5r are for low construction works such as wall finishes, tiling, laying of blocks etc because it doesn't require high structural strength especially mixtures of concrete ratio used for construction that require high strength like that of 42.5r.
I will recommend the likes of dangote that has been thoroughly test upon which has passed various strength test using various concrete mix ratio.
Supacem is good but I wouldn't recommend supacem.
There are laspse that need to be cleaned and make known to people, we have to follow best practices.
