Please house,

My builder gave me this quote for fencing 50 by 100 one plot of land

2,500 Blocks at d rate of 120per Block. Cement 51bags at the rate of 5,550per Cement. Graph 3Load at the rate of 12,000per Load. Sand 3Load at the rate of 11,000per Load. Workmanship 120,000.
Is this correct please and I hope no magomago. Thank u in advance for your good response

@ Temi231, you should be fine with 2200 blocks for the 50 * 100 plot of land. Assuming you have a 12ft wide gate and the fence is 10 coaches high with 2 coaches foundation.

I'm assuming this is happening in Ogun state based on the figures posted.

1. N120 per block is fine
2. N1,500 per bag of cement is cool and the quantity estimated is equally not bad. Instead, I'll advice you add extra 10 bags for the blinding. So, 60 bags should be more than adequate for this.
3. Gravel - N12,000 per load is not bad at all. Likewise, Sand at N11,000. However, I have my reservations with the quantity of sand budgeted when compared with the quantity of gravel. Though I can understand there are types of gravel which sand constitute about 50%. Whatever the case maybe, I think 3 loads is too much considering the fact that you're not raising any concrete column. There was no mention of iron rods.
4. The labour charge is okay considering the following work to be done.
- Excavation - 20k
- Blinding - 15k
- Block Setting - 85k

Folks, If you are reading this and still thinking about giving this guy a try...Goodluck!
This guy will do and say anything to get your business but will then try to play a fast one on you.

Make I go find something chop now..

I was hoping for a battle of wits but Baba you appear to be unarmed. I'm not a woman who take pleasure in emotional chitchats. I don't threaten people and I don't live a fake life. I confront facts with figures. If you're unable to refute all the claims on page 10, why should we continue with this chi-chat? He said this.. he said that... he took my name... all c.ock and bull stories without evidence.

Whereas I can post nothing less than 10 death threat messages with phone numbers and details of the owners of the numbers from you to my family, my friends and even Pastor. It won't take more than typing. So who's fooling who here? You can refute this claim too. I'll post the details here online.

May God reward us both in billion fold how we treated each other on this project and afterwards. AMEN. May God allow all our wishes for one another to come to pass in our individual lives. AMEN!!! (I'll be expecting your AMEN as well)

Meanwhile, enjoy your meal. I'm done. There's nothing concrete to discuss. Keep on doing what you know best, God will surely reward us both in billion folds. AMEN.

How come no one is talking about EPE? It's really happening in Epe at the moment and the pace of work on the 10 lane Epe Expressway way is super fast. I'll take time to share more info on this platform when I gather more info. I was there some few weeks back to visit one of my friend working on the road project.

I'm seeing Epe getting ready for the Free Trade Zone and many more industries coming to Lekki/Epe Expressway.

Good job, Ambode!

EgunMogaji:


Yeah I recognize our corruptive tendencies but I was assuming that such won't be occurring on such a visible tragedy.

Oh well.

One of the reason "Jesus wept."

Oga abouzaid, na beg i dey beg o? Pls lets keep this clean and use this thread solely for mature discussions only.

EgunMogaji:


I thought the integrity test will take months?

I'm glad that some passed though.

Sounds like it's moving along.

Thanks for the info.

Baba, you're doing as if you are not familiar with Naija system of government. Boys are busy in the lab d*ctoring test results. All the initial gra gra don die down. It's not as if Lekki Garden builds completely rubbish, its just that they're biting more than they can chew. Infrastructure development no be childsplay let alone land reclamation.

I'm sure Richard must have learnt some big lessons from this.

3strike:
Here ...before he change it so as to make smart comments.... we all keep records #winks

Baba, you really don't know me. I'm bringing 2013 correspondence up to confront fact in 2016 and you're saying before he changes. Changes what? Who get time?

Does that change the irrefutable fact that you paid NextHome 10m out of the agreed total sum of XYZ? I'm sure you understand the XYZ and may decide to turn a blind eye to the straight records. Thats no biggie.

You're the one making this an issue sha.

This is my belief "Ti iro ba lo l'ogun odun, ojo kan soso lododo maa ba" "Gbogbo ise ti mo ba se, ma rere e" and "Olooto kan ko ni ku s'apo ika"

Good Nite 3strike! Your joint no bubble like our usual joint. He be like say you no get cold drink.

EgunMogaji:




Speaking of LG, it's been quiet.

Did they find the fault? Any "insider" info?

Richard is released on bail. More than enough time to settle the kingmakers and tidy up loose ends. Meanwhile, integrity test concluded. Some building will be demolished, many others passed the test.

Ojoro cancel. Police can release anything on bail at their own discretion.

But the whole saga is a mixed-blessing. Lots of lessons learnt.

I have time for line by line before I get back to siesta. My response in blue.

3strike:



Bro,

I believe we are all here to learn and build except some ID10Ts that are here just to make noise . Am not sure how important your privacy is to you but hey when it comes to Nickels and dimes talk I like to discuss that offline. I have nothing against you. you need info,you asked and got it.. no biggie

But like I said earlier I didn't even know i paid 11.2M for the carcass cos I told all Nairalanders it was 10.3M......but hey my bookkeeping skill sucks i guess.

Sorry bro, you never paid N11.2m. What was requested is the breakdown of cost and not what was paid by the client? Hope that clears that part. If you want what was paid, I can forward you the records. You know I don't do cash transactions.

Now back to you question....

There was a reason why on page one the name of owner and the contract Budget wasn't listed. .....Cos I told him I want to stay anonymous which he complied to.

Do you have a record of that discussion where you told me? I opened the thread even before we finalize the discussions. The anonymity part was never in discussion. If you'll remember, I forward you the link after opening the thread and as a usual tradition on all threads, we post cost updates.

He later went to add the Carcass budget cost after our business relationship went sour...which am cool with even though I told him Private matter stays Private....

Project budgets were posted on our Project Gallery thread and Desmond's Flat is not an exception. You can visit the link and see all the projects. No one is making any fuss about cost posted online.

So Guys ask yourselves the following.....
1. Did he just prep this contract and payments schedule in 2016?
2. How come he didn't paste it up on page one when he started the carcass?.....Could it be because 3strike told him not to?

3. How come He is posting it now after he fell out with his client?
I only posted when I was asked. Interestingly, nobody asked the question during the project lifetime. Just as I posted this breakdown cost on another project when asked by a user.

4. If you are his client will you like your financial transactions to be out on the net even After i paid him on time and as scheduled for every milestone?
Hmm! Aside quality control, the beauty of this forum is cost control. Take for instance, many people got to know they were been ripped off by some suppliers of Granites due to information released by some people. The same thing applies.

5. How come Page one of this thread is showing budget for carcass as 10M and his payment schedule show otherwise?.....I guess he doesnt pad estimates.....This guy is not straight forward....ask other clients of his
The first page won't show 10m because the project cost is not N10m and you'll remember that the first two days of posting we were just rounding up discussion. How can I post a figure yet to be concluded?

6. You think everyone just hate Brabus for no reason?
I don't think so, they all have their reasons just like the one we are discussing and making fuss about right now. "He's not straight forward because he posted the figure of the contract without my prior consent"

7. Do people like Spyder, Adventures,Segcymoore abdulwastecx and Segy14 have 2 heads? how come you dont read their issues online everyday?

EgunMogaji:


An impeccably written professional letter. It covers all bases.

Good job.

And it was duly acknowledged. When there's nowhere else to turn to, cheap blackmail sets in.

Hypocrisy is blaming Lekki Gardens when we cannot afford extra few days on a project thats meant to stand lifetime.

Baba, I think you meant to say

3strike:


The irony of it all is that....We that have the interest of Brabus at heart will call his Pastor, threaten his friend, threaten his families, blackmail him online so as to see him do our bidding.... on the flip.

You know I don't know how to write love letters. I'll back up each message with evidences. Tell me who no go run from such?

N10m, 3 floor building in 3 months and a threat to kill the whole world just because the CEO is travelling for 2 weeks.

Long gone are the days when Brabus need to be in front of people every single day. I'd rather focus on writing epic and useful posts that solve problems and help people than keep up with the joneses.

For EgunMogaji.

Good job with your building. I see some "Opo" or "Pillars" in the courtyard. I'm forced to ask "what are those for?" Trust me, this is the time to put in your concrete baseplate or start working on your padstones for something "classy" using steel.

Don't turn this house into a classroom o! Dem go laugh us.

Good morning all.


Brabus
U try with your analysis.
But since the owner has refused to show up here, case don close cos he is only the one that can give us the accurate analysis. And No matter how small it may look, I still prefer my money to show up that way.

Nice. Good morning from Nigeria.

EgunMogaji:
Second mistake, not at all on her to impress or shock any entity

Live and let live.

Stop generalizing wildly Sir. You don't actually know it all

My apologies for over generalization sir.

Meanwhile I'll patiently wait for the next 5 years to say hello to your wonderful kids and grandkids in your vineyard.

I concurr. Already bookmarked this page for future reference.

I'll be shocked if you surprise me baba.

EgunMogaji:


Yea, seems that you miscalculated, personally, no neeed to generalize though

I'm not only building a 3,500 but just added another 1,400 square feet building.

Seems people are not planning well and doing copy copy

Baba EgunMogaji, the Chateau has lived it's purpose. I wanted a place close to my work (Lagos), my hometown (Abeokuta), my wife (Ijebu) and my oldies (Ibadan). So I choose Sagamu and I built what worked for me as an heir.

I didn't leave the Chateau because it was too big or felt very uncomfortable but I need to be close to my business and I can't afford raising my kids away from me. So I sacrificed the Chateau.

When I was in the house last December, I really don't feel like coming back to Lagos. It was really a house that was well planned but I think it's a project that came ahead of its time. It's a community that I built from the scratch (built as in built the road, electrification, drainage, landscaping, acquatic life, and layout) and I left it when everything is coming out. I even went as far as chosing my neighbors cos I ensured my friends bought next to me. So that's planning and not like I bought 2 plots in a place and put a gate. No o!

It may serve its true purpose at a later time but definitely not now.

But to say I'm doing this for my kids and grandkids. Baba, make we leave that one o!
I have someone who did the same and he's asking me how we will convert the house to an hotel. The project is on Nairaland here.

That's the reason why I said I wish we update different projects years after.

EgunMogaji:


Trust me I won't

I'm not like most, I act on decisions after many months of deep thoughts and considering all angles. I pity those who act whimsically.

Baba, I know you'll try but it's just what it is. I'll visit you when your kids and grandkids comes visiting to remind you of this comment.

FastShipping:



Na wah ooooooooooooooo

Yes but the Chateau has achieved its purpose. To showcase NextHome's build just as H52.

Will I do the same again? No! I don't need to impress anyone again.

What will I do if I have limited resources? A 2 bed open plan contemporary house with all the packaging and effizzy of this world. You know me!

What will I do if I have huge sum to play with? I'll do the same thing I did at the Reserve and Browne Mews. Imagine Browne mews at 40% completion cost just about N33m (land and carcass) and I'm getting offer of 28m per unit. Isn't that more sensible?

Now, I see every kobo spent on property as an investment which must bring quick returns.

FastShipping:



So where do you live? I thought you reside in that house.

I live close to my business now in a rented apartment which my baby boy calls "a community"

The guest chalet of the chateau is inhabited by my kids home lesson teacher and his family who takes care of the massive compound.

FastShipping:


Your mouth sweet die

I won't mind a small luxury duplex of around 120-140 sq mt as my next project. My spread-out bungalow is being defamed by the same people I'm trying to impress (kids). I never knew kids love 2-storey buildings. I don't care how small it is.

Am I dreaming? Aiti ko ifa nle, ifa ti nse.

Baba Egungun, FYI Chateau de Brabus is under lock and key for 355 days of the year. We only open it on the 25th Dec and lock it back on the 3rd Jan.

I'm based in Naija o.

Think of every kobo invested in that project as a loan. It doesn't make any sense.

excellentmomma:


Hian and I was about contacting him, Naija na wah

You can still go ahead and contact me here. Contacting us doesn't have to transalte into a business all the time.

EgunMogaji:


Well I disagree but we need to define senior citizen.

I'm building a 3,500 square feet property for kids and grandkids coming to visit.

Baba, no comment. You'll remember my post 5 years from now.

The day the owner of the Chateau in Ile Oluji gave his analysis. I cannot but just smile say "I no tell you"

How I wish we can continue to share updates of houses built years after?
