you people think you are wise and smart, you contacted him for work you aren't giving him and he still responded.

You gave your job to another person and you are here attacking him like he is the only roofer. Most of you builders think u are smart but end up being duped by little rats for site.

Everyman must chop in his line of business. The money you are using to build house came from the floor? You made it from people too be it salary or profit from your business. If you don't have money to build house, stay rented apartment.

You people should leave the guy, he owes no one any explanation here. He has integrity and that's enough to give him job. If he is expensive, try another person as we have hundreds of roofers scattered everywhere.

Everything in life has to do with preference.

I do tell my staff, that no one is indispensable. We work as consultant to top international organizations, who sing our praises for professional services we render. Yet, if we mess up, they'll move on from us to other firms that would render same service.

In getting job done, I go for the cheapest and the best.

If I want to buy bread, and I got quote from 10 people. I'll pick the best taste and best price, not because someone says a particular bread taste better or some tries to persuade to do so.

This is my project.

I've patronized those that gave me good prices and quality job.

We started with Dangote Cement and when it became expensive, we moved to Lafarge. Lafarge is cheaper and has not disappointed so far.

When I got to roofing in July, I got quote from different people. Some are ridiculously high, but I chose one that was cheap and better.

So, it's your project, patronize anyone you feel comfortable dealing with

How many times do you sleep in your house in the village considering that it is a stone throw from your city?

That's the dilemma. A friend built 14 rooms en suite in the village. The aged mother refused to live there because it will be very lonely for her. The house is vacant as we speak. Dude only comes in once every two years. He is left scratching his head. The thought of cleaning and maintenance will make his retirement a stressful one.

Want to build in the village? Use your change. Don't pull capital out of your business for it.

People must eat from us, definitely, cause we too eat from others. But they need to act with sense.

That someone can afford to build a house doesn't mean they should count their hard earned money and give to you at your every request. If you can't compete, this line of business isn't for you.

When you go to a store to buy a pair of shoe, do you just pick any shoe you find in there or do go through the isle to seen other shoes on the shelve?

Noticed that thing is rampant on this thread.... Also, this 'I too know' attitude, it sucks!

A story was posted in Nairaland Homepage of our a lady lost a job due to her lack of manners.

The HR, chatted her on WhatsApp and she rudely asked 'who gave you my number' then went on insulting the man.

It's later the man introduced himself and the lady started begging him.

Building village houses With our change, so true. Although I did mine when I can, I knew that by the time my kids start to enter the university, I might not be financially ready to build the village house anymore.

But when your sons grow up, they will remind them that it is their father's house they are still living in. No respect until they build their own. SMH.
Or that the pattern of your house is no longer en vogue. I bet your father has a house. Yet you built your own. I tire o!

Well put. Thanks man.

Those rod prices are scary, so will leave that for now. But if you do cement @3200 to site then we could buy 600 bags for keeps.

Chekitaut:
Cement within Lekki - Ajah an environs remain ₦3,300, Ironn Rod TMT is ₦285k, Tiget is ₦300k, Local is ₦255k.

Advance payment without pick up will be dangerous because if price change you will be told to pay difference, but if price reduce no refund.

Just carry on normal routine construction works.

As you pay for good pick up & stock in site get security. The only fear now is on Cement, if Dangote increase then price will still go up.

If CBN devaluation come up soon by next year another increment will also come.

Hence, for price to come down not visible.
