We cast some concrete on top of the borehole position to protect the submersible pump from vandalism.

Spyder, just one question on this.. since I don't know how the borehole works..
What if the submersible pump is broken or defective, will they have to break the top concrete to replace it?
Mine was defective after about one year of occasional use and was replaced but the top does not have concrete yet. Thanks.

Sadly we have to break it up when we need to access the borehole, we are only providing temporary protection against any street boys who may want to steal it.

We are already starting to bring in the 9" blocks to form the walls of this house when it has cured some more.

It's a challenging environment but after everything considered, the total cost of all the materials, labor, logistics, settlements of area boys and supervision cost is N2.9m. This includes some of the construction we did to the walls in the dining section. It's a wide decking with cantilevers.

We have brought in about 1000 pcs of 9" blocks for use in raising the upper floors of this building. We are going to start taking the blocks up in a few days time.

Decking curing just fine, with rains and all.

Thanks for posting the cost of the decking..

No, the first contract is to construct the suspended slab, my client also wants us to continue the house till roofing stage. Welcome.

Do you know I used to think you only do complete-build contracts. I had the impression that you wouldn't like to do a building in bits. This is very good to know especially for those of us with shallow pockets. We may want to take it in batches as our strength is able to carry us.

This price is quite understandable being that this is a relatively large block of flats. I'm sure a four-bedroom structure with a voided main sitting room won't set a brother back by too much of a princely sum. I will soon be needing your consultation and mentor-ship especially as it relates to pricing

No problem Sir.

We have started to bring in some blocks,

The blocks are climbing up to the top of the house
