jcmaiah: In as much as I never support crime, APC should not leave out Amechi . The guy looted Rivers to a pulp! Whose fault was it that Jonathan did not set the ball rolling on Amaechie so called loot before Jonathan left office? Do you think if Jonathan had done his job well, EFCC would not be going after Amechie today? Present the paper trail of Amechi's loot, please. This present government is interested in proof and not just all these empty accusations or murmuring from kangaroo 'fact finding' commission sitting in Port Harcourt. Send a concrete proof to EFCC/ICPC/CCB for thorough scrutiny of Amechie misdemeanors. |

Anyway, I would love to see how far and give my professional assistance anyway I can. My guys really looked forward to your work ooo considering your intent to really wanting a good Job at all cost. I don't know why it never came into my inbox. If I had received your mail, I wouldn't have contacted someone else. I just had to make decision because some of my materials are wasting away with heavy rain. Anyway, I have just contracted it to another nairalander who is young and inspiring. He just did 7 view 3D presentation of the place. He intends to start working in November. Like I told you last time, I have bought most of the materials for the place that have been sitting at the site since June. I believe your guys saw some of the materials there. I also already shipped materials for the finishing to Lagos. I will keep in touch for if your expertise is needed. I still regret not having your guys do this work. |

mavverick: Hi All.
I find it very rich that Brabus/Nexthome/Bosun Davies is opening up a new thread scouting for new customers whilst old Ex-customers like myself are dealing with the following.
1) Non-accountability of materials used, he even asked me to call a scientist to verify what he has used. I have screenshots and evidence. 2) Shoddy work on my building (Still fixing till today and still costing me extra money) 3) Stealing of my materials 4) Fraudulent documentation (serious matter, plans are underway to deal with this) 5) Numerous attempts to collude with my security guard to defraud me. 6) Heavy financial losses as a result of using your services. 7) Non-performance and serious incompetence (who inserts used cement bag into concrete)
In actual fact, I am not the only person. There is another thread which I will bring up shortly. There are dozens who have fallen into this trap, and I will urge anyone to do their research. The fact that he's still being allowed to post on this forum despite all the grievances that remain unresolved, is simply beyond me.
Wise words for anyone. Can we have detail information about what brabus did at your site? You gave some points but no details about how brabus didn't meet your expectation. Brabus already countered your highlights with pictures of what he did at your site. It is now up to you to give details about the highlights of what you claimed brabus did. |

It is not in your business interest to have pictures of the roofing after making NINE post without showing a single picture. You already turned off many potential clients with this action. Did you know how many people already saw you first six posts that saw no pictures and for that reason won't even bother to open your thread ever again? |

Anyway I need a vehicle picked up from Irving Texas and shipped to Lagos. 2006 BMW 330i. How do I get a quote? I had my phone and email here before but the scam emails that I kept getting have been overwhelming. A lot of text coming from people who have nothing to do with business made me remove my contact information from my thread. I have permanent clients that have my contact and give it out here to people who ask for it. Sorry, I had to do it this way. |

euromilion: Hello Guys,
Well done everyone.
Quick question,is 10mm rod ok for casting a gutter and cover? From little experience, absolutely NO. 12mm has to be used with 10mm as rings. In fact, if it is a gutter that you are going to constantly have large vehicles climbing on it on daily basis, you are going to need rod with strength higher than 12mm. |

nextstep: What do you think about this very simple foundation? It looks like just a single pour of concrete slab directly on the ground. There's some formwork, rebar, and a DPM, but t doesn't look like they did anything to the ground other than leveling it. Unlike the usual 3-4 coaches, sharp sand, etc, this might save even more money as long as you know the ground is never waterlogged. The site we have planned has a very deep water table, and in fact, it's very difficult to reach it with a borehole. It's also on relatively high ground, and during the rains, water flows away. Why use foundation techniques designed for Lekki and PH when we can put the foundation right on the ground? Especially when the slab size is planned to be only 6m x 6m. I can't find it right now, but I thought someone on Nairaland did something similar...
Images from: http://www.sturmsoft.com/House/pictures.htm
Anyways, any thoughts? This is how foundations are done where I reside in the Carolinas. I have seen foundations done here with 3ft walls on four sides and no demarcation in the middle or any part of the foundation. Just 4 wide walls and concrete top. My question to engineers in the house: why do we always have foundations done with blocks as demarcations in-between and then slap a 6 inch concrete German floor on it? What happens if four wall foundation is done without any demarcation in-between and then concrete top on the foundation? Similar to my descriptions below:
