thank you sir, I told him I am indisposed

I sent him pictures, video of my indisposement

I told him I want to return the money he refused and while the project lag is because he didn't want pay the balance until the windows are deliver wish means I was striving to get the balance to give the person that will deliver it because without the balance the work can't not be deliver.

Sir, are you sure your claims are truly correct?
Are you sure you abided with the terms of the contract?
Are you sure you are thoroughly faultless concerning the job?
Let's always try to satisfy our clients/customers. Let's always try to be men of our words.

yes, he only don't want to pay me the balance after receiving his work, if am not trying to satisfy him, I would not be paying N420k for the job he paid me N300K and promise to balance me once the job is deliver.

bobkezel:

Good evening bro, pls I am on tight budget, what do you suggest I do?

I suggest you do this job right now if you have the funds. Waiting is wrong cause prices are definitely going to change. Even if am not the person who is going to do the job for you

ChuckKingston:

Alright sir. Here you go.

Firstly, my choice of this course - building - was greatly influenced by my zealous quest to be not just a major player but to also initiate and drive new innovations in the construction industry at large.

I am usually fascinated by how simple plans on paper are converted to jaw dropping structures on site. My curiosity to know how it's done pushed me to constantly visit the multi-billion mega construction projects (currently handled by Benton Bau after taking over from Quintec) going on in my school to not just feed my eyes but to also learn the practical nitty gritty of all the theories that I've been learning from my seasoned professors and lecturers.

I do not just seek to fulfill all righteousness by hooking up with some random construction firm just to pass time and fill my log book, I desire to be mentored by an experienced construction professional. I desire to learn and be equipped with a grounded orientation of site operations and also the realities of construction practice in the Nigerian terrain that cannot be learnt in the classroom.

For the records sake, I am a little above beginner in the use of AutoCAD and Ms Project software. I am very much open to perfect my skills in it if I get an opportunity.
I am highly adventurous but very cautious too, I am a deep thinker, a fast and willing learner, I also relish thinking out solutions to real life problems.

I look forward to getting a positive response from you sir.

And perhaps I failed to convince you, kindly advice me on what to do to improve myself as I strongly believe that failing is an opportunity for me to become better.

Warm regards.

Good morning great guy. I’ll attend to this later today.

DUNKA:
In my opinion to settle this mater let both parties split the loss I.e @focusmind send 60k to hslbroker since there seems to be miscommunication by both parties.

Have you forgotten Focusmind paid 75k to Adedward again? That means he will be spending 435k for a job initially quoted 300k. If he was a contractor, that's huge variation for him.

I think its time for Oga @Adedward to tall about these monies.

Also, Oga @Hslbroker claims he wanted to refund @focusmind but he didnt accept. Is this true?

Good morning everyone am blessedsunny2

wall screed 2m, damn


there is a very very cheap way to achieve dat with less than 50k (depending on the size of your project) and to me its best, becos it does not peel off after sometime like that of top bond nd pop combination

in south here, its called plaster screeding, WHY because, its goes along with your plastering

as soon as the walls is plastered and allowed to dry (to the point if you apply force on it won't spoil the job) you mix few quantity of pop cement with water nd add a little quantity of black cement nd stir properly

use a screeding brush to apply the solution on your plastered walls and smooth with sand paper wen dry


its very beautiful (very smooth nd cellophane like walls)
its the cheapest method you can get
nd it last longer than top bond method which paints usually peels off on most occasions


I used just one bag of pop cement for both inside, outside, and parapet screeding for my 4bedroom bungalow with labour not up to 40k. It was done by those doing the plastering


the attacted fence including the four sides inside fence walls (100 by 50) was done with half bag of pop cement. labour was less than 30k.

Boss,

I sent an email to u.

U may share the contact of the guys who helped u with this or let's talk via e mail.
