EgunMogaji:
I am EgunMogaji AKA Olosha Oko and I approve this block work. It shows straightness and seriousness of detail.

Please buy your bricklayers a bottle of beer on me today, let them know someone appreciates their detail work.

Make that two bottles please. The "straightness" was what captured my attention instantly...and yes Podosci and Abdulwastecx should also have one on me!

Na wa o. Even before this guy got any job in nairaland, he sounded too desperate to be trusted...always crashing in on peoples thread and literally begging for jobs.

Project sponsors should also learn to do basic due diligence before awarding contracts. I have never seen the wisdom in giving people serious jobs out of pity so Mr OP you have your own share of the blame. Just like others that read about Brabus and still give jobs to him and his fraud of a company and then come back months later to cry on the thread. By the time you start crying on the thread about your contractor things would have already gone wrong and you would have lost money!.

Additionally when you are unsure of a contractor, you need to do your job in phases and be ready to fire him at any stage. You also need to cover your ass with a contract that will be signed by both parties and be ready to prosecute. The problem is that we are all in a hurry to get things going and always forget to do the basics.

Dont be in a hurry to give a quote. Understand the OP's need first. He said a twin two bedroom bungalow and not a two bedroom bungalow. Very different.

No 1 and 5 are the most told...mtchew

Hello Segzy, Any ideas as to what is possible for a land measuring 18m x 18 m. I am looking at a three bedroom bungalow with small gate house and ample parking for 2 cars?

No Igbo name involved.

sign of things to come for you guys?

ARKdiscloser7:
No Igbo name?
Out of 33 citizens of a country they make us believe we are one?

It is obvious and loud as that, that Buhari's govt is a clear war against the Igbos as earlier feared.

Why wont they allow the Igbos to leave then? Why!

I feel you bro

fippycbk:
This is a Primary School we did for a Church in Anambra State.

This also came through a Nairalander.

Features:
11 Classroom Blocks (each having a teachers cubicle behind).
Toilet facilities for male and female pupils.
Library.
Teachers' Pool Room.
Head Mistress Office.

Looks really nice. Must be one of these private schools...

What will be the estimate for building this?

spyder880:
I will, just researching for the best locations.

We still dey wait o...

Loading is taking too long.

They are giving a 30 year guaranty.

What real advantage does it have over aluminum and stone coated tiles?

How long has it been in existence?

Litmus:
Is this meant to signify humbleness ? Hope not. First Buhari now this guy, its like a theme from up North or something. It is disturbing, all these echoes of humbleness Humbleness sucks. It baffles and worries me that so many African people have not an iota of idea about the Politics of Humbleness. Humbleness is a weapon to castrate the black man. Buhari's Fulani people are not humble, they boast of their Warrior prowess and hold farmers in contempt.

Help me someone! Is there such a word as humbleness?

Happy Married Life Bro. Keep some of the cake for me o!

Get a quantity surveyor to make an estimate for you. Otherwise there are plenty of guys on this thread who can help out for free. But you need to have a plan as estimates can only be made using a plan.

UPDATE ON OUR EXTERNAL VIEW (PRECAST MOLDINGS CLOSE TO THE ROOF)

I like.

Rella1234567:
Hi All,
I need you advise. I subscribe to a housing scheme in Lagos; [size=14pt]Essential Homes by Gran Imperior (Metropole Interprojects)[/size]. They are the developer behind Northpointe, Southpointe and some other projects for which they are erroneously advertising 6 months delivery. In a bid to stop paying the hefty house rent in Lekki Ajah area of Lagos, I subscribed for a 3 bedroom apartment in one of their estates in April 2014, and completed my payment per schedule, in August 2014.

Almost 1 Year after, all they have to show me is a foundation of the supposedly allocated unit. I have tried all means to communicate with them, and they are currently frustrating this effort, I have engaged lawyers but will like inputs from my well learned and experienced folks here, on how best to deal with this situation.

My demands from them are quite considerate, to commit in writing to a new delivery with agreed penalty for defaulting and take care of my temporary accommodation as I exhausted my credit limits to pay them and fulfill my end of the contract. Court case might take a while, so I want to explore all diplomatic means of resolving this first, but ultimately will do whatever will get me justice.

This should not be the appropriate means to reach out to them, but well meaning Nigerians who have contacts there should help me talk to them, maybe the right set of people in the organization are not aware or involved. I will keep the post updated with new developments as they unfolds.

Thanks all. (Mod, pls help another Nairalander)

With N16 million you could have bought a plot of land around Ajah and built a very decent bungalow. I don't know why people continue to fall for all this estate developers crap. Checkout the litany of woes on the Lekki Gardens Estate thread. If and when they deliver your house, i bet it will not be up to the standard you expect.

Back to what you can do next? It's a wait and see situation you have put yourself in so "wait and see....and also pray".

From previous pictures i was beginning to imagine this roof was brown and was wondering cos i followed the installation and saw it was green. I think what happened was that it got dusty and obviously it has now rained in that area and cleaned it up.

What is the size of the plot on which this building is located?

spyder880:
The agreement with the furniture worker is for every cabinet and wardrobe in the whole flats, it will be difficult to break it down. But I will ask him the estimated unit cost of each later. The casting around the well has been done free, I have boys staying in this house and the owner is not going to pay for this.

@Bolded, You are a very considerate guy o. I hope other building and non building contractors are noting this about client-agent relationship.

It looks like the kitchen cabinets will come out well. I like the elevation from the ground to prevent foreign bodies seeking refuge there. I am concerned about the space reserved for the electric cooker. What if i have a bigger gas/electric cooker, will i have to dismantle that section? Is it modular and i can easily move or expand?

WHAT HAVE YOU JUST SAID?

spyder880:
Again, plot numbers 44 and 45 have been reserved for payment by a nairalander whom I have built a house for in this forum. I am very optimistic about this venture, I wish I have the money to buy more of these plots myself, very good investment for the near future.

That means 20% has been sold? Chei, from where i go come get money before dem sell this thing finish? Me too i wan buy near mercylicious.
