Sir, I will advise u uproot, chemical might worn after a while and probably spring up again when it gets enough nutrients from rainfall then grows back..try and get those Mallam to do the uprooting, be able to explain to them to uproot and not cut it off

Thank you sir...

Good evening guys,
I have this piece of land that a hardly visit. On a recent visit, I noticed a palm tree that was very small when I acquired the land had grown so rapidly, and another one is springing up rapidly too. I also saw a bamboo tree that was not there initially.
House abeg, whats the best way to deal with those trees... I have an option of uprooting or using chemicals on them... Which of these is more viable.?

I hope I won't be accused of being n3xt .
I particularly enjoy reading the comments on threads, they are more interesting and sometimes more enlightening than the main news.
I enjoy different unique ways people reason and comment with humor.

I think he was being sarcastic.

This is for the slowpokes who can’t read with an open mind: https://www.nairaland.com/2089904/desmond-flats-ogombo-nexthome/10#44445232

Here’s the bill of materials for the said project. Kindly show me where there’s a single bill for M&E (plumbing and electrical as claimed by the client) in the estimate given for the project.

I’m sure you had no idea why the rush here to intimidate Brabus. It’s because you got nothing on me.

Read further to understand why I am never in a rush to delete any of my threads and accounts. It’s because truth is constant.

The truth you share in 2012 will be the same today.

Omo ur problem big pass you. You need help.

Nobody is against you. But we don't want anyone to fall into your bad and evil traps again

As e dey hot...
@n3xt oya come

Abudu2000:
100k for architectural and structural drawings? No no I'm not siding with next but I'm happy he duped you. At Least others on this forum won't patronize someone who ask for 100k for a job that will involve 2 professionals (architect and engineer) so baba the fault was yours.
Looks like alot of you here deserves someone like next.

Was it too small in 2014?

Chairman, all this dy/dx does not work in the open market oo...wood no dey full again, hence the chewing stick size.. �

My own is not to discourage the first time builder.

Not having the required skill at the first go around is not a crime - lol.

No be crime oo. But some mistakes could be costly...

Please kindly desist from generalizing.......
If you want complete 2*2,2*3,2*4......its there in the open market. [b]You will just have to spend some good number of hours in the market to sort each out. [/b]And it's easier if same is gotten from the bush directly under good arrangement.

As for the 16mm being 12mm and 12mm being 10mm.....you must be joking about this.

Many of you fellas hardly go do real time market surveys.

If I can't go to the market and buy what I want and leave without wasting my time.... Na im be say e no dey...
Going to the Bush to get it still backs up my claim.

Basic verifiable information is all you need to make such decisions not emotions. Isn’t that why we all learnt to read and do basic maths? Reason why rhetorical appeal has no place in science, engineering and technology. Standards for measurement like inches, meters etc were developed for empirical evidence. Besides, only a dinosaur would use an approx. of 1.9 inches (2' minus 1/8') x 2 wood for chewing stick.
The average saw blade is about 1/8 to 1/4 inches thick.
But the thick ones like the 1/4 inches blade are used for such job.
That is the most sawdust that would be wasted from that cut
Now divide that into two, you have 1/8 inches loss for each 2x 2 obtained from a 2x 4.

Think about it, how thick is 1/8 inches? That is as flat as a razor blade. Is that what you should be concerned about? 1/8 difference of an inch is relatively very negligible in terms of size. A regular measuring tape is not even calibrated to spot this difference. secondly 2 x2 are mostly for nogging and there are no safety implications patterning to this.

I look at it in terms of savings. At almost #300 difference, multiple that by the quantity and you have enough money for carpentry labour.

Let’s hope that is not even what the supplier would do because that would be your money in another persons pocket for lack of information. .

Calm down bro...
2x4 you used to know is no longer 2x4 it's like 2x3... 2x3 is now 2x2.... 2x2 is now useless or chewing stick as the person above stated...
16mm u used to know is now 12mm, 12mm now 10mm....

twinskenny:
hehehe what's the argument?

Too many flimsy accusations but the crux of the matter is, the supervisor is requesting for a certain amount from the baba lati...cos he was the one that recommended him.
So baba said if I no change supervisor him no go work again..

Ok I have tried..
Tomorrow makes it a month My "baba lati" and my supervisor were at logger heads.
Work is stalled for a month now.
Which kain country be dis...

Stopthecap:
Can you imagine begging someone to repay money that is owed for over half a year..

Like I said all this is just entertainment and macabre marketing for the fraudster builder.

Asslickers full here na... Moreover he got a share from the fraud.

I’m paying him soon.

It's apparent to all that you're a peddler of false claims just to discredit another member here just because of your personal grudges against him.

I'm committed to only objective considerations and truths and will stand in the gap to defend such honour. It doesn't matter whoever the person is, I stand for the truth only.

The person I was talking to has finally asked me to free him... You didn't know how our matter started but you jumped into it like danfo conductor....

You see ur life

Stop throwing tantrums and defend your claim with proof. We're not here for your unfounded emotional outburst but facts and figures as learned people.

The brown color could be due to the sand color
It has a wet look and most likely wet, that is why it is obvious
Another reason it’s obvious is because of optics. It is side by side with other walls which are white and dry. In photography that effect is called CONTRAST EFFECT. It is a technique used in making an impression.

Moreover the egdes around the window are sharp.

Please state specifically what the problem is.

@rajput pls attend to the bolded.

sonnie10:
Did you just say you came here to tarnish rotecch77 reputation just because someone told you to do so?

You are beginning to yarn trash.

bobkezel:
You are going overboard with @sonnie's.. He is not supporting @rotech neither is he supporting you. He is just as neutral, trying to get the facts right be blames could be apportioned...
He is concerned and is doing a great investigative job so far.
Just calm down with him.

I guess he is truly biased, judging from what he's been saying so far.

sonnie10:
In a typical Nigerian voice and manner, how would you respond to someone asking you about doors which was already refunded?
Would you be upset if someone ask you about that again?

Truly you are being biased here..
He denied collecting money for door and the proof was shown....
You now come up with this twist...

Greenarrow01:
He is.

And now I am beginning to reason with egun
It doesn't make sense for you to pay premium amount to professionals and end up getting the job and attitude of babalatis

Ire ooo

Sincerely speaking, all na babalati with Internet presence.

Greenarrow01:
You are been biased sir.

What do you have to say about the poor job rotech did ?
That alone is a big issue.
And it has nothing to do with the client.
He had the option of not doing the job.
But he did a poor job. No defence.

2. Why will he take payment for basin and not bring it for 3 good months?

3. Why will he take part payment for doors, reply with with "work is on going" then come back after weeks with stories.

4 why will he take payment for door frames, and still tell his artisans to make use of existing frames that belongs to client, that is dubious. It has no two names
It is fucking dubious.


It's laughable that rotech claims he doesn't want to upload chats between him and his client, but finds it easy to be abusing his client's father.
That's hypocritical

Questions 1-4, I think @sonnie will still come to that part, and he has asked some reasonable questions already, although @rotech is yet to answer nor provide any evidence to back up his claims.
@the bolded.... Really laughable.... @rotech the bolded is laughable so do the needful.

rajput4real93:
You can never mediate with just between warring parties. So with all these, you still 'hope this won't be interpreted as an admission of guilt in the future?
Someone who did a shoddy job I posted, without any convincing reason(s) to have done such?
Someone who lied that he refunded me FULLY for a basin and I provided a receipt to the contrary?
Someone who lied that I didn't pay him for wooden doors and i provided a receipt to refute him?
Someone who didn't do all the works YOU personally requested me to list and I itemised?
Someone who lied that i 'begged' four professionals here for a free architectural drawing without any proof to back up his claim?
Has he provided any evidence to back up his lies/claims?
YOU ARE TACITLY DEFENDING A CRIMINAL

You are going overboard with @sonnie's.. He is not supporting @rotech neither is he supporting you. He is just as neutral, trying to get the facts right be blames could be apportioned...
He is concerned and is doing a great investigative job so far.
Just calm down with him.

PrimeQuay:
This is the sad truth, if you decide you want to pay them in bits, they might claim majority of the funds is for materials. I’m currently chasing the guy that is supposed to do my HDF doors after paying 70% advance. Everyday it’s a different story.

[/b]From my little experience, procure your materials yourself(if you can) and just pay labor as work is delivered.[b]

Don’t be afraid to enter market and price materials.

@the bolded, that's the plain truth, but na chance matter atimes.
And the artisans can beat you on this game. Waste ur material with pride.
