Check your records(if at all you have one),majority of the Federal contracts in the 'South' are awarded to Southern Contractors so what stops them from doing the needful.
Idiot!!!

Tell us the southern firm that refused to do the Lagos to Ibadan highway?

Tell us the name of the southern firm that is in charge of fast clearing of goods from the wharf? Because delays in clearance = Higher cost of imported goods.

We need to know the southern men and companies doing shoddy jobs for the Federal government roads in the south?

I even understand that Julius Berger slowing down the second Niger bridge is being remote controlled by one southerner grin

Help us blame the south properly for the problems of the south.

What the south has in abundance are educated illiterates like this poster I am replying.

hslbroker2:


this is the best type of roof for Africans buildings, we have low rate of snow fall, the Americans, Europeans, Asians that are using pitched roofs does that mainly because of their weather condition, because of snow, they don't want the snow blocks to remain on the roof so it will damage the roof, this mainly why u see all this high rise roofs on their lands, but we Nigerians are copy copy people, we can copy anything, even some copy madness, but i must confess to you that flat roofs are the best for us here in Nigeria, even the aesthetics look of the designs are awesome, we don't have snow here so why all this high roofs and waste of materials, money that should be channel to other part of the project will be spend on roof. go to lekki, ajah, eleko 60% of those houses there now are flat roofs and still growing, we are getting wise day by day.

Thanks but you didn't address the issue of noise, heat and wind pulling it off

After over a year consistently on this thread, i will be patronising a vendor from this thread... I have always been avoiding that due to the numerous, not too palatable issues in the past but i will buy wood and other accessories worth a million naira from hslbroker2....
He has promise to do POD... I have promise to pay him IMMEDIATELY.... My carpenter and Engr will received the truck, count the wood, ensure it's okay and they will signal me to pay... Hslbroker2 has ASSURED me that what he's bringing will be of utmost quality, not MIX, exact specification and i will be happy with it... I will come here to give feedback... If this goes through, then i will consider this thread for my window/door/plumbing etc... It's my little way of saying, Thank you to the thread and the MEN here, i always receive valuable info.


UPDATE:

I am happy to say that hslbroker2 did supplied the wood and all accessories to my site..Unlike the experiences of some of you here, my carpenter, two other carpenter did confirm to me that the wood is very okay. They collect his phone number from me...He was communicating with me, even when he had transportation challenges, he reach out AFTER DELIVERY for some extra bucks for support which i did...I did not regret this transaction....The POD model is also very good, most especially on a forum and society like ours. My mind was at peace, knowing fully well that am doing POD......I encourage other vendor to adopt the POD model, most especially if your store/office is far from the city, where majority of your customer reside....When we know ourself better, then we can pay ahead and be sure of not just delivery, but getting exactly what we order for. Thank you hslbroker2........I just told someone in my office now about you, he will be roofing his house soon......
Roofing is done!!! We move to the next stage.....Am still thinking what it should be sef?

I personally know the signature and have done biz with him on material only.

I believe he won't cheat you.

But do your due diligence wink wink wink

Exactly. I know the "signature" too.. The assurance is that you'll be getting quality job.

Negotiation is entirely up to your skills.

You mean polystyrene as attached in picture 1 and 2 ?

I have not seen where they use it as ceiling. The last we used is through the beams for our penetration pipes as shown in the picture 3.

The structural engineer go against using our normal pipes by cutting the reinforcement

I am also interested too.
Are there advantages over the usual pop?

For a fuel attendant to be building his own house then you should know most of them do build here also, they all believe in having their own personal home due to the fact that they marry a lot, the standard is 4 wives and at least 15 children so most men tend to start building once they clock 20.

So yes, the demand for block is high not to na talk of the main city like nassarawa, Hotoro, GRA, Zaria road and co where the wealthy hausas are.

How block take be 85naira even when cement is 3800.

To be sure , I will walk up to another block industry today
HahHahHah are you serious people still having 15 kids in this economy. I hope it’s not true oooo. This is the reason why we have so much out of school children, back in the days when I was there in 80s it wasn’t that bad. There a lot of undeveloped land, these days is really really scary with situation of security.
