Chijiokefbn: American panel door is fair. If you are on a budget, American Panel door is ok. I think I will settle with the american panel doors for the internal rooms, and use fabricated steel doors for main entrances into the building......heard the China brands are relatively stronger than the Nigerian made,how true is that??. |

SVPROJECT: Go for HDF Doors that are fabricated and can be confirmed to be wholly HDF not those they claim to be imported that will turn out to have Mdf as internal( talking from experience @ Odun Ade Market,Orile). It may be costly but it’s durable and beautiful. I'm rilly working on a very tight budget,I know HDF are strong and nice but going fo that option would set my project back by over 2million, and my projection for doors is about 1million tops. Hence my choice to go for watson or these budget friendly american panel doors for internal rooms but I'm sceptical about the quality of those door,especially the american panel doors.Thanks all thesame. |

SVPROJECT: Those Watson Time panel doors and purported Turkey doors are not durable, When exposed to water and also constant opening it tends to start wearing over time.
Mainly embedded with cartons. Thanks for the review,what brand would u suggest that is durable and suitable for internal rooms. Also not too expensive. |

Below is what the electrician sent but we ended up going with the electrician thereby saving over 50k. We paid him for workmanship 110k Was this quotation for just upstairs or both ground and top floor?? |

Alkanelly: Good morning Nairalanders, Can the expert help me review is quotation for plastering of a 4 unit of 2 bedroom flats in Port Harcourt. See attached picture.
Can you also review the quotation for a casement window with burglary proof and net What exactly is the labour and installation all about for the aluminum windows. Isn't labour supposed to be included in the charge per window design??. The plastering seems fair considering the fact I got a bill similar to urs for just 2 blocks of 3bedroom flat. And urs is 4 blocks of 2bedroom. |

walexProjects: Maintenance: Biogas digesters require regular maintenance and monitoring to ensure they operate efficiently. If not properly maintained, they can become a source of odors and other nuisances. This maintenance can be time-consuming and may require specialized knowledge. When the required expertise is not involved,it becomes a menace.
But if it's properly maintained then no issues at all. It's funny lots of people advertising the use of bio digester in homes don't fully disclose its disadvantages. |

Iriruaga100: Is it too cheap or expensive? Way too cheap...spent 1.3mill on labour for plastering (interior & exterior) a blocks of 3bedroom flat.(1 flat down stairs and another block upstairs.) Though it's being handled by an engineer,so I guess his supervision fee is included in that bill. |

Later I saw a different post on brabus here and I was amazed.
The chats are there! It's very simple....meet him one on one,tender an unreserved apology for failing to the terms of agreement u guys had. Make a commitment on how u intend to settle whatever that is left to be settled in terms of payment and whatsoever. Come on nairaland and inform the house u both have a MOU. Ignoring him and pretending as though nothing happened wouldn't work, blv it or not it's gonna dent what's left of ur image on this forum, nobody wish u bad brother |
