The Interlocking Slabs On The Floor Of My House Is Giving Way by anabellex: 10:57am On Oct 12, 2012
Hello to you all. Pls advise on what I should do. The interlocking blocks on the floor of my house in ajah is giving way and falling in at the fence area. How do I solve this?

This is as a result of poor back-filling b4 laying d locks, all u need to do now is take out d locks and excavate the top soil, do a proper back filling, vibrate d filling b4 fixing back d lock.

May not be your contractor's fault. There's nothing he could've done about future soil movement, that could've caused the defects you're reporting, at the time. Just do what emytech said. Same can still occur in future, though.
