I’m not buying any cement until mid February

I guess that’ll be until they start doing Valentine Promo (Buy One Get One Free)

I don’t need any promo. I just want stable price.

Ideally it pays to build to taste, but the terrain in Nigeria is discouraging. Start building and see different LASG agencies that you never know exist visit your site for documentations, couple with Omo Onile, area boys etc

When you build, you can be rest assured of comfort, compared with what a profit minded developer would do, just to make his return.

the funny part is, there is no receipt for most payment.

Building to your taste is still better when there is inflow of cash.

I'm building in an estate,ive not made any extra payment to anyone,either government or whoever. Though not in Lagos

Bosses in the house. Please kindly help confirm prices for 20tons of granite, 20tons of sharp sand and cost for digging/packing pair of soak-away (big & small) for Atan-ota, Ogun state.

Happy New Year!

Please, how much is the average fee for Engineer's SITE SUPERVISION ONLY?

Construction stage - ground floor blockwork to lintel only
Duration- two weeks
Location- Ikorodu
Project- 4 bedroom Duplex + 2 bedroom flat AND BQ

An engineer quoted me 500k, I believe that is too high.

You might want to try something different from the contemporary POP ceiling pattern. PVC’s ceilings can never go out of market due to the versatility of designs it adapts to.
Recently, there’s been improvements, importations of structures have been employed and PVC’s are now produced with thickness up to 15mm.
Check the picture below for some awesome designs that Pvc’s can be adapted to

Lagos does'nt have 'oil' as mush as the Niger Delta states, but they make so much in terms of taxing Citizens.

Imagine LASg telling you to pay N750,000 as tax just to get building approval, even if the cost of land is N200,000.

We pay millions to LASG to build, aside from omo onile

Ogun State is learning in a bad way.

To establish a Gas Skid or PFS in Ogun State, you'll pay Physical Planning over N7million for approval. Please how much is the land? or how much do you require to set up a modular Gas Skid? May max N4million which should include land cost. But Ogun State Govt will tell you to pay N7million for approval

Chief a beg I no wan laugh.

One stingy chief got the best tiling job discount from a one-eyed man. You should have seen the tile job. A blind man would have done better.

They look really nice. I guess one needs expert installers to get such nice designs. How is the price compared to P.O.P?

the funny part is, there is no receipt for most payment.

Building to your taste is still better when there is inflow of cash.

But no timeline to when you can complete your house, except if you are under pressure.

Take your time to achieve what you want.

For my building, I first targeted December 2020, but since some materials didn't arrive and yet to arrive as at today, we are looking at sometime later this year. May March 1st or April 1st. Before I was putting myself under pressure. Now I realized it doesn't worth it.

Building is wired up 100%, tiled up to 70%, plumbing fittings done, doors, POP internal and externally done and what's left can be finished in 20 working days with another N5 million, but I am not in a competition with anyone, so I can take my time to avoid having hypertension.

School fees is due next Monday. Madam just sent me invoice now

I checked my kobo kobo exercise book yesterday and realized we've spent N37.850m From April, 14th 2020 to 12th January, 2021. The money didn't come at once but in piece meal. the days of buying items of N500 to that of N500,000 gradually till we got to where we are now

It is about priority

it's not hard to get someone who fixes concord pvc design. If youre around Delta axis I'd have given you expert engineers, or I'll even fix it myself. The logging is the important aspect in these kind of designs.
The displayed Pvc ceiling tiles per bundle;
1)Dimension: 8 square meters
price: 14,000
2) special order...
dimension: 10 square meters
Price: 17,000

BiigTee:
One of the reasons is their service charge(infrastructure charge development charge) and all of that rubbish they don't tell u before u make payment.. In adron estate, u can't build and stop.. U must build from foundation to finishing at a stretch! I had already bought the land before i saw that nonsense rule! So i just abandoned the land and got another one. Just know if u buy land from adron at 2m..the other hidden charges will almost double ur 2m. Before u can lay a block on ur own land

On their site... They said all lands in phase one have been fully sold out... Don't know how true it is.


I was told about the hidden charges by their Instagram admin... Regardless... I want to know if it's really legit

Does building in an Estate stop government agencies from coming for such practices?

Does it also stop omo Nile?

Many things sure did happen on this thread from unscrupulous suppliers to quacks posing as professionals. What pissed me off was how many victims kept quiet until one person called him out. Like a molestation case, victims started surfacing with painful stories. I am trying to remember the moniker that was into roofing and supplying woods. Some of them are still here with different monikers.

Cave ne sedes.

So sorry, I just checked my spam and saw your email from a couple of days ago. Thanks... much appreciated.

Potential land buyers, please pay attention to this because it’s true.

But it's always seen on their form na.

They don't hide this except the buyer did not pay attention to the form he or she filled or was not available in person to fill the form before he or she paid.

I’ll never buy from them do I don’t know what their firm looks like but the internet is littered with complaints about stuff like that.

So for me where there’s smoke then there’s fire.

The receipt thing is individual choice, you choose to make payment to right or settled individual that may not help at the end of the day
