its like u are commenting from a phyciatric ward. he got his job or are u insane? if he got the architectural he paid for then wheres the fraud, even he himself is a yahooboy or havent u gone to look up his profile. all architectural designs have been sent to him. i have the mechanical and structural drawings completed but since he has no manners or respect for elders then he must pay for it. period!

Wow!

You have succeeded in putting your name in nairaland’s hall of shame and blacklist just because of 20k.

Here’s the thing I know “You don’t preach your values. Values are promoted by what you do and not what you say or talk about!”

That’s why people pushing certificates, their age, status or titles actually mean nothing to me.

I see a lot of elders here that needs mentoring. I’m sorry I come this way. No pun intended.

Oga 48hours for (ANY) drawing, does this include the architectural, mechanical drawing? Haba don't you think it's to fast with back and forth with client request before arriving at a conclusion for the design. I have no idea how this 48 hours thing is possible. I think I might have to challenge your competent in my next project, be prepared my designs are crazy. What is your average cost? Can you please show us some of the samples of the designs you did in the past.

my oga there is no single issue of fraud here just that i am not too good in explanations stuffs, i am more of an action person. someone paid me for an architectural drawing, i stayed up all night editing the one i had on ground that was the reason i even agreed at hat low price but now he changed the brief that he needed to use only half of the plot. i stayed up all day designing, after completion i sent him the drawings. he didn't complain, only for me to come on nairaland and start seeing nonsense. i ve done too much jobs to allow myseld to be insulted by one poorer trying to become a landlord, if u cant afford a design then ask baba lati to peg on site for u like that. the guy was a very big fool, i was even ready to give him an electrical design in addition to the structural and mech but instead he choose to fool himself. im not supprissed those especially when i looked up his profile and saw that he was even a beggar back in 2013 when he registered on nairaland, i was already doing my coren exam then. he's a very big fool along with those that reached judgement without proper investigation

You're a professional as you claim and how then does throwing insults at customers help your brand?

Begging is not a crime stealing is. We all have our down moments at least your client is focused. He begged in 2013 but today a landowner who is able to afford your service. Do you mock such person or you celebrate him.

The 20k he gave you initially wasn't from his heart as he told you to hold on. That money was given to you to save his neck from "evil" person due to your many threats but I assure you if he was indeed a bad person as you allege he'll call your bluff and tell you to go to hell.

In igbo parlance there's a saying that " ojiri gi ogu jiri kwa gi ofo. Meaning haven't given you the money he has raised the deities of justice against you.

The ball is in your court now...

@stanley000 you're everything I strive and work hard not to become. My clients are my everything. Big client or small client.

Someone begged in 2013 and in 2021 he's a landlord. What do you think he will become in 2023.


If you can't deliver for your client, don't berate or insulat him or her. All we need in life is an opportunity and someone gave you that opportunity and instead of you to make use of it, you dragged it through the mud with your ungratefulness.

In a country where minimum wage is #30,000, someone gave you #20,000 with begging and all you could do is insult him

Please help me investigate this case... someone on what's app group is having issues with the painter he hired.

One of the issues at hand was that the painter was collecting the empty paint bucket used and he wants the empty buckets.. the painter said that's not how it is done.

This got me confused, I have done some projects in the past but didn't really get into details like that, like what happens to empty bag of cement, used bamboo , paint buckets etc. ( you need to leave room for family members to chop grin)

Who is right here? Does the client take possession of all the empty paint buckets or do painters keep them?

So I was in a meeting of civil engineers today, that was jointly attended by members from Africa foundaries, (one of Nigeria's leading reinforcement producing company) despite telling us that most of their raw materials were sourced locally, when questioned about why reinforcement bars price are skyrocketing exponentially, they couldn't give a befiting answer.

The issue of steel bars diameters not upto standard dimensions was also raised, and their response wasn't satisfactory to me aswell. (They were like buy only steels from Africa foundaries) undecided

Last last, na structural engineers | clients go bear the brunt.

Did he supply the paint as part of a total job or I supplied paint and just paid him labor?

If I supplied paint then bucket is mine.

if the clients bought the paints and materials for the job,he owns the bucket and stuff. It's no brainer


But if the painter charged for the job and was made to procure the materials used plus paints, he owns the bucket because he might have factored in the cost of reselling the buckets in his charges. So taking the buckets means taking some of his agreed amounts

If I supplied paint then bucket is mine.

Well, according to the client.. the painter submitted a list of what was needed for the job, say, 100 buckets of emulsion, 50 buckets of ...... for a total of xx buckets of paint.

So the client paid for the service, for the painter to both supply and hire painters to paint.

Just like @ michilins pointed out, the painter perhaps factored in the cost of the paint bucket when submitting his quote - who knows, but the client in my what's app group did say he factored in the cost he would resell the bucket prior to hiring the painter.

I concur.

I am on the fence on this one.

One of the points the client raised was, when he hired the guys that did the plastering, they gave him all the used bags of cement, so he is supposed to keep the empty buckets of paint.

This is one of the reasons I advise both contractors and client to iron things out, make sure they are on the same page and agree on terms before the job starts.

Interestingly, lots of people are for the clients tho. (But again most people on the group live outside Nigeria - not sure if it affected how they looked at the issue).

SURE WILL KEEP YOU AND THE HOUSE POSTED... BORE HOLE CONSTRUCTION COST JOB IS MAJORLY ON TWO ASPECTS..

1.. COST OF CASING PIPES.. WHICH HAVE STANDARD LENGHT OF 5METERS AND DIAMETER OF 5INCHES... THERE IS THE THICK ONE AND THERE IS THE ORDINARY ONE.. SOME MIX THE TWO IN JOBS BY PLACING THE THICK ONES AT THE BOTTOM WHERE THE PRESSURE IS MUCH AND THE ORDINARY ONES AT THE TOP TO SURFACE.. THE PRICES OF THE THICK ONE I HEARD IS ALMOST 20K FOR THE 5M LENGHT.... AND 10K FOR ORDINARY ONE...

2.... COST OF DRILLING ITSELF... IT RANGES BETWEEN 120K-250K DEPENDING ON THE DEPTH YOU GOING... MY RULE OF THUMP IS 3K PER METER...IT MAY BE MORE OR LESS..

THE REST ITEMS LIKE THE PUMPING MACHINE, WATER PVC 1 INCH PIPE AND OTHER ACCESSORIES... THOSE CAN BE BOUGHT AT YOUR OWN DISCRETION..

I HOPE THE ABOVE OPENS EYES A LITTLE TO PROSPECTIVE BOREHOLE DRILLING CLIENTS...

when he hired the people that did the plastering,he supplied cement and everything used for the job and the workers came with their tools and strength. Moreover the prices of cement bag isn't significant.

You see those buckets, each can go as high as #200 and multiply by the numbers. This is real streets and not Nairaland where #20,000 is a paltry sum for some

He paid material plus workmanship to the guys.
