Lagos Material Testing Laboratory Notice by omoola007(m): 3:48pm On Feb 27, 2016 |
I am working on a renovation and received this notice from Lagos State Material Testing Lab. What do I do next. I am afraid this is another egunje fiesta. No matter what they will want to extort me. The building was built in 1988 and needs major cosmetic renovation. Structurally it's very fine. We will need to do some cement patching and repair some cracks. Has anyone dealt with them before ? What's their approach? Are they fair or just another hungry department of government.

I really don't know. They seem to be agile these days. Even though I wonder what will happen if one does not go for the test,however, I am in support of the test. We need to ensure our structures are in the right standing. That way, we will rarely have news of collapsed buildings that killed innocent people. |

danowena:The NDT is done majorly to storey buildings and LSMTL do their billing wrt to number of floors and size of building. |
Re: Lagos Material Testing Laboratory Notice by danowena: 10:23pm On Feb 28, 2016 |
Dieumerci:okay tanx. But how much per floor? If I have four apartments of standard 3 bedroom flats on 2 floors (ground floor and 1st floor). How much do u suppose I will pay? A rough estimate will suffice. |

danowena:Take the notice they gave to you to their office or check the back of the notice for any phone number. |
Re: Lagos Material Testing Laboratory Notice by Dieumerci(m): 11:29pm On Feb 28, 2016 |
rydeorsail:For the 2 mini duplex, was it NDT you did or you invited them from foundation stage? |
Re: Lagos Material Testing Laboratory Notice by rydeorsail(m): 12:04am On Feb 29, 2016 |
