So finally we let go the site engineer after several attempt to restore peace between my dad and him, he(my dad) accused the engineer of trying to frustrate him because he didn’t give the avenue for the engineer to rip him off and when I got to hear from the engineer’s side of the story he said my dad started behaving this way to him ever since he brought his QS to site who happens to be his childhood friend and he(the engineer) said the QS is going behind his back to condemn his work to my dad which I feel is just an overreaction from him ...
And the reason we had to bring in the QS in the first place is because the engineer barely even have time to come to the site because he’s working for a company , all he just does is come to site once a while to supervise the work and see if the workers did what he asked of them to do.
Well it’s a long story, but to cut it short . The QS who happens to have about 30+ yrs of experience(which could be true because I see he’s actually good at his QS thing) is now working together with my dad to continue but still I feel I need the presence of an engineer to do supervision and I want to ask , is it advisable if I should get another site engineer and at this point? And if I can should I just pay the engineer per day since I don’t think I would be needing him to be present everyday just some selected days where it’s important ,like to do the slab, column ,roofing and main works like that.
Please I need your suggestion as we are already at the stage where we will soon need to cast the slab.

Please don't neglect professional input. I am a Quantity Surveyor and every professional has inputs in a project. If your Dad is not ok with the current engineer and every effort to make peace prove abortive, you can go for another engineer, but in all, pls dont neglect professional input

Good evening sir/ma,

Please I need your feedbacks on a Kobo Kobo project I intend on start towards the end of this year, it's a story unit of one bedroom flat on a 30/25ft land, I've also attached a copy of the intended building plan.

I'll really appreciate all your inputs, observations and will really be grateful if anyone can help me with a QS if possible, the project is in the northern part of the country, soil is hard and stable.

I must say it's really been worth the while reading through the first page to the present of this magnificent thread, the the time and selfless efforts made by the various experts here in dishing out valuable information to followers of the thread is exceedingly beyond comprehension.
I say a BIG Thank You to;

QSFemi:
You're well informed and wise. Many dishonest roofers, out of desire to fleece unsuspecting clients of selfish gain, inflate the covering area of the roof without anyone raising an eyebrow.

Clients are advised to get a QUANTITY SURVEYOR to help carry out physical measurements of the roof carcass in order to get area commensurate with what's on site.

Be smart.



You are correct! Penny wise pound foolish

How do you mean sir?
Firstly what do you think is wrong?
Maybe water is settling on the concrete. It should have been construction to slope outward so that water flows out and not settle on it

This can be corrected. You will need to put bituminous felt on the slab and do other things

Properties / Re: How Much Will It Cost To Build A 2 Bedroom Flat by boay(m): 8:43pm On Jun 17, 2020
Akin4sure:

Could range from 3m to 5m depending on what you want, if you want a real quote, get a drawing and give it to a quantity surveyor for an accurate cost and you could also ask for a materials and labor cost at each stage . I can give you a drawings and an estimate at an affordable price. That is why some client end up fighting there engineer after the engineer gives an amount and the amount spend exceeded the amount given to the engineer.

What Is The Estimated Cost Of Building A 2 Bedroom Flat In Atan Ota?
Please Help

It depends on factors like 1. size and 2. quality of finishes.

You can see one of 6m and another of 3.5m or 3m. However, if you have a design, I can do estimate for you base on your taste. Check my signature

Hello, Please I will like to know what method quantity surveyors use to charge for thier work. I have a hotel project and wanted to have an idea. Is it a fixed fee or commission.

It can be both or otherwise, depending on the nature of the work.
