My Ikorodu Mansion; The DIY Report. by Qc1(m): 7:32am On Jul 29, 2015
Hello there everyone in the forum. I know a lot of you have been wondering what ever happened to QC-1 project? I'm happy to report that by God'd grace I've been doing the little I can by myself without any professional builders here. I have to confess it's not easy but because of the disappointments ranging from one to another (from a Nairaland home builder contractor), I decided to take it straight to the sub-contractors and take the risk of being the boss. Afer all, it's my money. angry


I will like to thanks some guys here for their inspirations. Spyder880 - for inspiring me and others with your wonderful and beautiful works that goes with superb transparency. I wish you will work in Lagos, May you never lack!

Lawyer- for being the mods that stand for fairness on this forum, May God bless you bro!

mufutau55 - For your divine maturity and peace keeping. May God continue to show you favors.

others- you know thyself, thank you all. I love you.

I cried for very long time, unfortunately that didn't help. I prayed and ask the Lord to give me 1/100th of Spyder880 talent to do the fence.

After counting my losses, I got myself together and rebuild the fence with 16 pillars(on the bad side) and a beam in-between the fence.

^^^ Thanks guys.

If you are a very good painter and you think you have a unique idea for this project please let me know.

I was watching a Yoruba film the other day and I saw a unique painting pattern that dropped my jaw.

I really don't want to compromise on the painting because its bring out all the hard works in other areas.

I lost count after N16M (land NOT included)

(if you look at the pic above you will see that I also had to do the fence twice, I spent N1.1M for the first one because of the raft, even though the fence broke down, the raft were left standing.)
