I'm only interested in the finish product when ready before I make further comment on uPVC or aluminum windows.

So do I. I'm not a fan of showing other people's samples but I like to showcase my own finished job.

But in the meantime, we've just chosen our fabricator which is the first step in the right direction and discussions is on the way.

More updates later on this thread.

NextHome Official Weblog is live now!

Visit www.nexthomedesigns.com

The choice before us is to choose between a welded window systems (uPVC) and mechanically fastened (Aluminium).

More importantly are the built in steel reinforcement made of galvanized steels.

uPVC coming to Browne Mews, Atlantic View, K-024 and more. Follow us.

Spotlight on uPVC Windows

My client, my people - they've always want it different and as a constantly evolving build+design organization, we give them what they want at not only affordable price but a better alternative to the norm.

This post is not to compare the strength of Aluminum over uPVC as many would like to know or the cost differences but to showcase the possibilities and the undue advantage of uPVC Windows.

Logically, one would think that an aluminum window would be stronger than a uPVC window because it is made of a tough rigid metal. But in actual sense, the material used in the framing a window or door is of little importance when counteracting the natural forces (settlement of structure, winds etc). Thus, the most important part of a window is the strength of the corners and this is achieved by the method and materials used in fastening the corners together.

Further discussions later on this thread.

Our choice for most of our ongoing projects is the uPVC and we are working with an international brand to achieve this at most reasonable cost.

You know in life, we just need to make good use of opportunities and get things we never expected or planned (if we have the power).

I repeat, God shouldn't allow us face financial problem that will make us sell our properties (Amen)

Congratulations! Do not hesitate to start something immediately on the property. Fencing won't be a bad idea.

@ Mr Maverrick, just keep the calls coming even at the odd hour of the night. She won't pick.

Browne Mews by NextHome | Walls going up

@ Maverrick,

Just keep making your calls to my wife. Sorry she won't pick up because we already got what we needed from the first call. Today it was 7 missed calls between 8am and 11:20am

It's not my duty to expose the fake. In due time they'll expose themselves.

@ Maverrick, thank you for helping me to make my point.

1. You were aware of the Oko Ado issue of no approval.

2. You were aware of the plan to go ahead to do the approval while awaiting your consent which you said it's not ready yet. Remember, I said beautiful that you have a consent in that chat. It means we asked you and you said it is still been processed.

3. I confirmed everything up to your consent number before asking you to make payment. If I didn't do all these then you have a point that you were not made to be aware of any conditions.

4. I even told you of the need for tax id of 3 years. I'm sure if you check your archives very well, you'll find those details.

5. That you paid environmental or local government had absolutely nothing to do with approval except that became a law just yesterday. The man you routed the environmental/local govt money through is someone I knew (he's still alive and not dead) so no need to bring that up. If you check your chat, you'll find the record there.

6. That there's no receipt. Yes, until you arrange to meet the necessary conditions. But let me tell you the approval you have is not a fake. Meet me up at the office. It's that simple. You can never have a receipt yet when all you require to start the processing is not in place.

As said, will do whatever it takes and I will ensure that Bosun and family are taught a lesson that he will NEVER forget.

Just had to quote the above so that I can add to the ever growing list of threats from you.


All these empty threats won't take us anywhere. Last year, you said you're going to Punch and Castles and I was just waiting for the good opportunity to be the next billionaire everyone is waiting for. Go ahead!

agarawu23:
haa!

Na una be oga for here o we na young shall grow so make I no go fetch water for basket

Yes! its a good environment and the seller won't stop pressuring me on whatsapp and I am sure the deal will be sealed this week or next.

You are one of those I am stalking their thread in this section but e b like say na only billionaires una dey help build

Yeah, you're right. I only build for billionaires and potential billionaires while I am hoping to reach that mile stone myself soon.

May God grant all your good wishes.

Oga agarawu23, buy make am we wash for hajji's joint o. If the environment is good enough, step up the offer and you'll be happier for it.

Make it a WIN-WIN.

^^^^

A big amen to the last line and I want God to even reward me a billion fold the way treated your project. Let me hear a big amen well wishers

semitunde:
From site experience? How many years pls?

No offence intended.

The 0.5 and 0.7 trench might be in km and not metres

Oga brag3, thanks for the birthday wishes.

I would normally not like to comment on this issue any more to allow the thread for its intended purpose.

But here are few facts to take away on your issue.

1. I came out point blank to tell you that your building wouldn't require approval before I took the project and not after or during the course of the project. So you weren't misled and there was no time you were called back to come and pay any other sum of money for anything even when the officials came, I just called the guy I question to attend to the issue and it was cleared without your involvement.

2. Is there any time I discuss the approvals with you one on one or even the payment required for it? I may have forgotten but whether you believe me or not the fund I requested was not up to half of what you paid. Now, it may not matter what I did with the balance anymore because you paid me and not .... But it is what it is. And if only one can obtain call records from network operators, it would have been a perfect evidence in this case.
You're not there so you would never know if I didn't tell you.

3. That approval can't be gotten without C of O or consent isn't something I'll like to discuss here. But I tell you, airin jina ni ai ri abuke okere. Toto se bi owe. Let's leave that part for LAWMA.

4. I didn't deny that fact that I told you that the approval for your new building is not my remit according to my letter on 28/10/2015. Experienced have shown me to learn to say No when you need to say no.

5. There's never a receipt for backdoor operations.

Again, thank you for your time. Also as per Maverrick obtaining his money. I don't hold on to what is not mine but I asked a simple question in my posts. What would have done if you were in my shoes? Ask him to go ahead and settle the officials? Or get him to commence his processing and get the approval in process?

I've asked him to come with me to the office where they did the stuff. How hard can it be? How hard is it to set up a conference call and get everything recorded to substantiate his claims. He had direct link to the guy even though he's trying hard to convince the guy to say I'm a fraud. That's the reason why Alausa confirmed it fraud and not the office that was right in front of his house that have jurisdiction. I'm sure if the guy had said something of such, we will have seen multiple screenshots.

Baba, thanks for you time again.

good morning

Ibadan

Calculate current value of land the area plus N250k for the foundation done.

At that height they couldn't have used the following:

50 bags of cement
1500 blocks
1/2 ton of 12mm rod
8 loads of filling
1 sharp sand
And miscellaneous which shouldn't be more than 400k. So if you divide into 3 and take 2/3, you should have 250k or thereabout.

Let them understand your analysis and tell them the other option you have. Buying a land and doing your own foundation to taste without need for remedial work.

But if it's distressed sale, use your church mind price am.

The man is feeling guilty yet he continued to r.ape her everyday. Interesting!

Meanwhile, Mr Maverrick is busy calling my wife since morning while we are here looking for resolve.

And the next thing you'll see are the usual name calling posts. Aren't we supposed to treat matters as matured men?

@ Excuzeme, you're still not getting it.

If I've given half truth to Maverrick, why was he processing his governors consent then? Why did he ask if settlement of the boys isn't included in what the agent was supposed to have done when the boys came to mark X on these site? He should have fight me dirty when he saw the X mark after paying such a huge amount instead of asking the soft question. Why did he have to send me the status of the consent? Why did he agree to scale down the building to reduce the processing fees?

I made it clear in my post that it'll be better to commence the approval runnings than to settle boys while knowing fully well that approval will eventually be done whether you liked it or not. So what trap am I setting? Except we see my proposal as not been a good alternative.

What would you have suggest that I do? Wait for the boys to come and ask for their price and settle them. Or just choose to be indifferent?

This is a case of I can hold forte for you while you get your documents together. Maverrick too never knew his consent processing will hit the brick, so how am I supposed to know that he wouldn't be able to produce the documents?

This is a messy situation and the figure we are discussing is not the big deal but we need to clear the air and stop compounding issues.

I understand the self eulogizing part but it's just what it is bro. It actually happened and not made up and I'm sure you'll definitely pick one or two good points from there to connect the dots.
