In my opinion, Just dont spam the thread with adverts.
I know it could be difficult at times, to draw attention to what you have to showcase if left and dumped under a pile of threads that people probably dont even bother to open grin undecided

But just one good picture of your drawings and a LINK to your thread where you have all your adverts/work done, should do the trick.
Dont post multiple advert here on this thread, it can damage the eyes.

Welldone on those drawings. Tone down the primary colours, use mostly secondary colours, especially for Residential dwellings, take a cue from experienced Archys in the house

*And dont get sarcastic as well, l can smell that from one mile.
*Take your time to write well when you post, it gives a bad impression to potential customers when they cant really "coordinate" what you are trying to get across.

Oooh Good!
Thanks gan.
Enough of this pls.
I'm off from this.
Thanks for d little advice which didn't come straight but to strike.
Okay. Thanks.

Won't ever border even posting a drop of 3D like a drop of kerosene that drops to spread at the same spot.
Ok. Thanks a lot for the scrutinization all the time.
It's better to advice than splitting on someone.
Also on trustworthiness,note that u r wrong.
Well,my few time posting made u to b able to spat on me.
All that kw me and with my friends and professionals kws me well. If I lie then HIS seed is no more in me.

And also on patronizing; I have clients patronising sir tho maybe my postings on other thread might be making little set back.

Will be taken the scrutinization for progress.

Oga Hajji please say no more. I admire the support and encouragement you continue to give to most people regardless of whether household names or not.
You made the point on both political debate and advertisements. And this is well received and noted.

I am not going to start a prolonged argument with you on this because that is not my way...
All the guys you mentioned above, how many of them have seen dumping their advertisements here?
Why not try to follow the same OP from thread to thread and see what he has been doing there.
I am only participating 99.99% in Properties Forum and I do follow many threads...
Please follow his thread and let me know what you find out, he has been warned on other threads too.
If you were here when this thread was started... that is one of the main reason why we opened this thread with free advertisements.

Daboomb took his time to address ur case and he made serious sense but u saw it as a "strike on u"...I give up at this point

Large Quantity and at Wholesale/Importers Price (as opposed to Resellers Price)?

Go to Orile but if you want it very cheap and in bulk, ask for Elelganza Warehouse at the same Orile.
Go towards the back of that warehouse, entering through the Main gate.
One other place you will also get very cheap prices and in bulk supply is if you[b] cross to the other side facing GTBank at Orile.[/b]
There are Turkish importers on that side (ask for their warehouse but beware of people they call "Baranda" - market urchins no different from the Lagos Agbero/Touts).

Happy shopping.

Some persons like Azuh type in a certain way just to be funny.
Others are results of auto-correct and multi-tasking combined.

But for a select few, it's simply because they struggle to speak good English. And except they were trained in a non-english-speaking country, it means they have no formal education.

Yes, a few times.
If only one person reports it, its instantly hidden from only that person's view. But I have observed that it does work sometimes when enough persons report it, but I don't know if it's automatic or not.

We need to try it out and see first.

If you go back to the previous page (748) you will see evidence that the report button actually does work. Thanks to Oga Hajji for motivating us to do the needful.

Looks fair though
But some are not clear
Like the Blinding & Filling.
I doubt if 5 trips will fill the house....but how many tons is what i don't know though.

I would advise u to use stonebase in place of gravel, if u can't afford granite.
This is a duplex, not a bungalow. The quality of coarse aggregates shouldn't be compromised.


Thank you very much.

I will still appreciate further opinion from our experts.

Good day
Certain things appears to be bundled up on the Bill. I will let that fly if you get to revise the supervision fee against that.

From your description your trips of sand/gravel is from single axle tippers.
You did not indicate which type of back filling material you intend to use. I want to assume for that your trucks will be double axle(10tyres) fully loaded like that which I am conversant with in Owerri- Imo State.
If your Engineer is intending to do the standard excavation depth for your type of structure it would take you about 7-8 trips.

Goodluck to you and happy weekend.

I have always heard about people talking about karma, used to doubt it existence...Not anymore...
