Hmm, I have never thought about the functionality of the terrace in that way. Unfortunately, that's one of the features that gets sacrificed first once cost cutting becomes necessary. We have knocked it off from recent and future builds. now have to rethink that. thanks edit: we never use burglary on upper floors and its optional on ground floors, completely up to the end user. n3xt: |

Guys, Which one of 3/4" or 3/4" down granite is more suited for 175mm slab casting and why? I am considering using the 3/4" due to the high volume involved as that will consume less qty, are there other considerations i should be looking at? thanks |

Saw this today, and in my subconscious i read it as ... "Hustle ohhh, so that when you see/hear men spending XYZ mil on properties it won't look like charm/fraud/illegal money ONLY to you." There are still LOTS of legit hustlers out there doing BIG things. Then I #ReadItAgain and discovered it's NL playing mind games on me. 4 Likes

Hello, Very good and neat job done. Seeing that you loosed the boards and moved them to cover the raft in stages, how many hours/days in sufficient to wait before removing the formwork and moving to next point? Thanks |

Go for lekki scheme 2. It may look slower to develop at the moment with low occupancy rate but it won't take much longer before it explodes (yeah I know we've been waiting for a long time) considering what's going on in and around the ogombo road at the moment. Abijo GRA may appear ready for occupancy right now but the distance between those two locations isn't child's play, therefore consider proximity to Ajah and Lekki. Location is everything! edoman2016: 2 Likes |

maybe you should show the first door's front view as well to show same orientation for comparison. those that know the doors may be able to tell it apart sha. The first/top door looks to make a big statement and quite loud while the second may appear professional and more suited for a business (bakery). The location of the project could also be a factor in the choice. If i had the option, I'll go for a third choice altogether. Cheers rotecch77: |

Hello, What is your budget of 850k benchmarked against? Is that just a hunch and a nice round figure or based on quote from similar job? Like someone said in their response to you, how does this brand/grade rank when compared to others like Tower, Ghana Imported, PVC and the likes? That's a better way to make comparison. Get same contractor to give you a quote for other brands/grade, then you'll know which one falls within your budget bracket, then get other contractor(s) to quote for that same brand/grade you selected. One good thing about windows is that there's always something for every budget. Cheers. MrWalban: 1 Like |

Hello builders, Pls I need a technician that can service/repair basic construction machines like concrete mixers, poker vibrator etc. I used to have one guy come in from Agege but lost his contact. Thanks for your referrals. |

Thanks but 24w is a lot. Besides, the lighting points are already there as there is a previous fitting there. i'm just trying to change the bulbs (screw type) to a more functional one with optimum power consumption, especially when on alternative power. Appreciate the suggestion. emmaachile2: 1 Like |

Hello all, What BRAND and WATTAGE of LED bulbs is recommended for external fence light to use with inverter & solar system? The perimeter fence has 10 points spaced about 15ft max apart in some cases. So, I'm looking for low power consumption but still luminous enough for visibility. Thanks |

You did not state your location in Lagos and the qty of cement. There's not much anyone can do to help without key info. Cement is N3,200 in Lekki today from 300 bags upwards. neduboo: |

I just did a drive round town today doing market survey on this. Local = 250k - 260k (depending on distance) Tiger TMT = 305k HiTech TMT = 310k How many tonnes are you looking to buy and where is your site? I am currently speaking to other builders around me if we could consolidate our orders and load directory from the factory in Ikorodu. I am sure we can get them to bulge with a 15T order though they normally set ~20T ish as minimum. femidbuilder: |

About N3,200 in Lagos yesterday. Anyone got it any cheaper in Lagos? |

That's good news. I was offered N3,200 in Lagos yesterday but i declined. That price was without any haggling so I'm sure seller could have reduced it if i pressed further. We dey wait... platorepublic: |

Yay or Nay? rotech77, spyder880, timtol, abdulwastecx, KolaShangOne, saydfact (long time no hear) and others... what do you generally do? I know most will say its the client's call but i believe there's a point where the benefits (if any) becomes insignificant and therefore the additional cost isn't justified. that's the decision point i'm looking for. Pls feel free to chime in. any suggestions are without any liabilities so caveats are fine. megacontrol: |
