If an independent contractor presents themselves as an expert, they should not need supervision. If the client could do it himself/herself, they would not have hired him in the first place. How can you pay a professional and still be expected to supervise him?

If a trades person needs supervision, they shouldn’t be out there taking work that they are not competent to do. Instead, they should be working under a supervisor aka Oga.

MrOkenwa:

Thank you sir. He took 1.6m based on some mutual agreements, including this 30% chance that you mentioned.


Yes, different discouraging stories everywhere.


Update
I did this one yesterday evening.
None of the drillers that I contacted gave me any assurance beyond "we will do our best".
The one that took the job insisted that I provide a representative that knows about borehole drilling. Should things go the way I don't like, this person will bear him witness.
There was about 40 meters overburden. They struck water at around 110 meters and they terminated the drilling at around 120meters.
26 pcs of thick Lombardy casing pipes used. I'm awaiting the installation of the pumping machine today.

diordaves, folmus. Thank you for your response and advice.

Finally, Congrats Sir.

Now my question is;

The building before this project sharing a fence has thier generator house attached to the fence and somewhat disfigures the entrance, also I would like to do an electric fence all round.

How does one go about this? Is the owner of the building supposed to adjust the cover and limit it to inside his compound or there’s nothing we can do since we met them there ?

Also, please note that this generator house is at the backyard of the building. That is; mine is facing the opposite direction.

Your inputs will be appreciated.


Good afternoon Sir.

I hope this doesn't sound weird, I'd suggest you build your own fence, to align with the marked pillar of your gate, to avoid unnecessary fuss.



My humble opinion.

Good Morning all,
Please I have an issue with iron (used as balcony railings and burglary) that has started to rust after just about 3 months of installation. The painter actually applied red oxide anti rust before painting, but with the rust we are seeing now it's obvious he used an inferior quality.

I really need a solution to prevent further rusting. Any suggestions on what we can apply on the surface of the iron rods to stop this issue, and then we can repaint afterwards?
find Sharon paint and ensure that it's fully coated when painting now

thank you sir.

I’ve just completed the roofing ,
Everything cost me around 3.3m plus or minus .

I spent 840k for woods ( ayin ), nails, chemical for spraying , knapsack , transportation and workmanship ..
I spent 1.9m naira for 390 sqm of stone coated black Milano plus accessories, transportation and workmanship
I spent 460k for the parapet and workmanship ( these guys did a great job ) .

While the roofing was going on , I felt like I wasted money ( spent around 3.3m to roof 3bedroom ( two sitting room) flat). I Thought I shoulda added small change and buy correct lexus grin..
But when it completed omo I’m really really satisfied .. as in I love it so so much . So beautiful .


Another downside is that the area is not yet developed to what I’m used to and it looks odd, bush bush everywhere ., but I don do am I don do am. Tbh na force dem force me o grin grin



Once again , thank you and God bless everyone of us . Amen..
pls what type of parapet did you do with 460k and can u pls give me the breakdown of cost

I resolved to suspendable ceiling, the cost wasn't as much as POP, the difference no be small. It came out good and I get to like it, tried it on a room first, I will be doing the rest of the building later this month, God's willing.

Please how much is the cost of the suspended ceiling per SQM?

Modified:
I've seen your response of #2700+accessories. per SQM and #650 installation.
Please would you be so kind to share the address/contact details of where it was purchased?
Thanks.

Not bad if the cost meant so much to you.
But honestly, this cannot be compared to POP ceilings.

Yes, no doubt, can't ever be compared, it's just the cost that made me opt for this, might as well in the future have it changed.
