About the tank scaffold..

I went to a building where one was done.. the tank fell off from the top of the scaffold. It was a two storey building somewhere in sangotedo after ajah. The scaffold was quite high.
Luckily the tank fell into a bare land just adjacent the building. So no injury or life lost..

So i am trying to get all the information possible to be sure he is on the right track.

Please guys i need your input.

Happy sunday

tonididdy:

does this include all house fittings?... plumbing, electric?

On low budget means..

Soil is firm not requiring Raft ie strip foundation
You're not selecting the best tiles, fitting etc (best is different from quality - Instead of led light, go for conventional bulbs, Nigerian tiles, etc and instead of 50k toilet seat, go for 15k toilet seat etc).

Offcourse Nigerian cables...

So, 4.5 might just be enough for your foundation if your land is in Ajah..

How will u know he is on track when u are not into construction? How will u know he is using right mix ratio? Just get someone competent & relax.
Is he taking the tank stand to foundation and cast it, or is he going to bolt it to reinforcement?

Ok but at least let me have an idea.

He is doing a foundation for it casted with reinforcements. 2 feet below ground level, with another layer of slab above ground level

Good afternoon my ppl,

Please what will be the best capacity of submersible pump for a duplex, area is ibeju lekki, tank height is 27feet. .
How much and where is the best place to get it?

this your tank hieght isnt so good, you would likely hv water presuure issues on the top floor.minimum hieght should be 35ft, unless your building is short

@ question, 1.5hp is ok, 1hp will still serve ok, for a single duplex, with 2 tanks

The worst part is that his rate isn't even cheap.

180k for 30T granite isn't cheap at all, it's above fair market price and still he couldn't deliver or refund. i know he'll claim full truck load bla bla but it's all BS.

The dude doesn't even seem willing to refund. Don't blame the client for calling him out as a fraud.





I see reasons with you.

Not including borehole...
If its 6 inches block, and roofing is not the long span but roofing sheets.... Electrical and plumbing not fanciful... Just simple... Even the tiling will be simple....

I really think 5 to 6 million can get him into his house.... I think its very possible
