It depends sir.
The agreement you have with the architect matters.
Note:
In contractual jobs, the architect serves as the client's representative, until the job is duly completed, and a certificate of completion is issued to the contractor by the architect, an architect is always involved.

Initially, my thought is he should do the drawings and I give the job to my bàbà Láti. But he said he needs to be on ground cause building is plus and Minus even with the drawings. So I had to retain him and continued to pay for the service but at the roof top. I don't think anything needs to be amended again na that requires his presence.

He is to supervise till the roofing is done. Of which we're at the stage now. But he is telling me he needs to be involved in the interior design as well. And I told him that is not part of his jurisdiction but he is insisting I still need to keep him for supervising interior design and decorations.

So. Do I med his service on such decisions after giving the contract to those in such field?

Since he’s insisting that you still need to keep him, I’d suggest you keep him at no cost to you as a consultant on the project while dealing directly with the tradespeople involved in the finishing stage.

I try as much as possible to eliminate a middleman arrangement during my finishing stage except where my client specifically request for my service.

At no cost ké!! Lai lai. He won't agree. That is the reason I want to know if he is needed for the interior of not. Left to me. Have told him he is not needed after the roofing. It's not like we go shift bedroom to sitting room room náà. And he won't be going there for free.

So if I can get an interior decorator that doesn't require much supervision like that.

Have you worked with @multicolour interiordezine before?

BUSINESS NEWSDangote Cement moves to end cement supply shortage, suspends export from its terminals
The surge in the demand for cement products has led to a supply gap of about 40%.

Published 10 hours agoon April 14, 2021By Omokolade Ajayi Dangote powers cement plant in Tanzania with gas turbines, Dangote Cement Plc records 34.20% increase in 2020 Q3 revenues, Dangote Cement market capitalization increased by 28% to cross N3 trillion mark in November
SHARE TWEET


Africa’s most diversified manufacturing conglomerate, Dangote Group has revealed that it has suspended exports from its commissioned export terminals.

The Group made this move in an effort to cut the country’s cement supply gap and keep cement prices low in Nigeria.

According to a news report by The Punch, the Group Executive Director, Strategy, Portfolio Development and Capital Projects, Devakumar Edwin made this revelation while speaking at a press briefing in Lagos this week.

The Director explained that the surge in the demand for cement products has led to a supply gap of about 40% in the country’s cement market, and like every other player the Dangote Group is working actively to close out this gap.

The demand and consumption of cement in the nation currently outstrips supply, and this can be pegged on the growth in the country’s population, and the strong appetite for real estate investment and construction as investors consider them a good hedge against falling local currency.


In a bid to close down this gap, players in the industry have commenced measures aimed at expanding cement production infrastructure in the country.

What has been done so far to close down the supply gap?
Despite suspending exports from its recently commissioned export terminals, thereby foregoing dollar earnings, Dangote Cement has also reactivated its 4.5million mtpa capacity Gboko Plant which was closed 4 years ago.


While BUA Cement on the other hand signed a contract with Sinoma CBMI of China to build three additional production plants with an installed capacity of 3 million metric tonnes each.

These plants when completed in 2022, in addition to a 3rd cement line of 3 million mtpa in Sokoto which has been booked for commissioning in mid-2021, are expected to increase the total installed cement production capacity of the company from 8 million mtpa to 20 million mtpa.

What you should know
In recent times, allegations have been made against the Cement company on the ground that it increased its ex-factory price. Devakumar Edwin revealed that these allegations are untrue as the company had not increased its ex-factory prices on its cement product since December 2019, despite the recent increase in production costs.
He explained further that over the past 15 months, DCP’s production costs had gone up significantly as about 50% of its costs were linked to the dollar

Unless you have a life and death contract with him, he’s done when you say you’re done.

I believe this shouldn’t be an issue. Invite few pros, give them your brief and let them send in their proposals. Award the job to the man with the best bid.

No! But I can work with ANYONE when it comes to interiors designs even my mukailas

Well, he is right and some Baba Latis may not be thoroughly trusted.
You may relief him of his services if you think its necessary or you may pay him to check on the project once in a while.

The first step is to get a detailed drawing and get a quotation based on milestone/stages..........your land type, site location and labour can upscale the cost in many instances.

Also your timeline to build to completion is a factor to availability of funds.
A lot of people want a modern and standard build with average finishing and this means different things to different professionals in the trade given their field experience and exposure.

Given that let's say #25M.
