Since you both knew what you wanted, always remind him ahead of the roof installation.

Plastering parapet walls, installing copings must be done prior to installation of your roofing sheets if you want to avoid issues.

Builder /contractor. You hear?

Tonymegabush1:
His money his car his begging wetin concern me




He better no drive am for nigerian road, driving in nigeria, no matter how careful you are not to scratch your ride, once you find yourself inside traffic jam, keke or another james bond kinda driver go jam am 4 back. Ok if you mange escape that street kids will use bottle covers use design the body...

How can someone who can't afford this park on a street for kids to tamper with?

No Keke or Okada dares bash stuff like this, he go suffer for long.

n3xt:
If you knew exactly what you intend to do on your roof, whether now or in the foreseeable future, it’s best you integrate that into your plan during design or construction stage before the roofing.

Solar panels are installed on roofs at any time the owner wants. A good installer knew exactly what to do.

I know what I want exactly for the roof and the builder knows this too because I have made this known since, so it's not a new development.


I even posted here questions on solar electricity.

Asking to avoid the plaster guys issue on 3strikes roof.

Do you think a flat roof won't have issues by the time solar panel guys come to install the panels on the roof?

n3xt:
May I ask what exactly do anyone think will make this type of roof (butterfly roof) fail?

- All the side laps are sheltered from the main wind direction
- There are no trees around so I’m less worried about foliage clogging the drain.

diordaves:
# Use industrial grade sheets.

Thanks

E.g to the boled?

diordaves:
Forget aesthetics for now as it is a personal thing. Let's dwell on technical practicability:

Flat roof will fail periodically over time far more than hip roof.

As a result of the above, flat roof is high maintenance.

If you must do flat roof, be prepared to spend more for industrial grade sheets well above 0.55mm. A flat roof with 0.55m sheets is a mickey mouse set up technically speaking.

As a result of the above again, flat roof is NOT cheaper than hip roof over time. It is a false economy.

Flat roof is bad for your mental health and for the environment. A flat roof home is hotter, noiser when it rains and you need air conditioner more than hip roof to feel whole in your home. A warm/hot home affects your mental health. You are more likely to be stressed and angrier than normal. It is your home playing tricks on you.

Your wife or you (whoever does the most cooking at home) will continually be stressed using the kitchen because of the added heat from the roof. The kitchen is a furnace and a nightmare in flat roof homes. It is difficult to feel whole in such a kitchen.

It is good advice to go for PROPER roof design. All these flat roof in a tropical climate like ours in the name of modernity and minimalism na wash. Don't skimp on your foundation, decking and roof. Find the savings elsewhere in the build through cost effeciency during painting and decoration stage.

Thank you.

My quest for flat roof has nothing to do with saving cost because from the quote I got, it's not cheap.

Now, are you saying those disadvantages listed don't have remedies in our clime?

diordaves:
Please don't. I'm never a fan of flat roof for residential buildings. The same way I'm not a fan of PVC ceilings.

Please, I am now worried with the way some of you are against flat roof.

Can you tell me why I should think twice?

twinskenny:
mostly ebay or aliexpress, you will be able to get some bargain on aliexpress.

Thanks

And the angel of peace visited the thread........

somehow:
Where best to buy from and what's their average delivery time?

Do I start now or when is best?

May likely start finishing between 2 and 6 months time.

@Twinskenny

Truth is finally coming to bare.

poseidon12:
Taiwan and South Korea.

It was the old that intervened in that of Taiwan/China and South Korea/North Korea.

Not America.

America was not that strong then.

planetx:
None, they are in the business of destabilizing nations for their own selfish interests.

The earlier people come to realize this, the better for them.

Nijagogetsense:
They care but it all about self-interest

They don't care

Show me one country America successfully made better.

twinskenny:
Very handy... switches and sockets, spot lights.

Where best to buy from and what's their average delivery time?

Do I start now or when is best?

May likely start finishing between 2 and 6 months time.

Like America cares about any country in the first place.

Please house, what are the products and items to order abroad for the finishing part of a build that is economical compared to buying them here, putting quality into consideration?

edoman2016:
Please, what is the usefulness of ante room in duplex design? I think it is waste of space. Or am I wrong?

For people you don't want to entertain outside nor in the main lounge.

dongc:
Unfortunately you are one those sir....the questions you are posing to ask are already answered....whatever you want from brabus about this....he obviously said same in 2016 and years after ....what is the essence posing rhetorics and slight inconsequential questions �.....it makes me believe either you want to bring this discussion again hence prolonging this issue which people have been on almost 5/6 years now....whatever you are looking for it...it is here sir....just start page 1 sir....any confusion would be clearer as you go forward..happy Saturday sir

Brabus knows why I am asking.
So sir, let's move on.

BrabusNG:
Nairaland properties big men wail on threads.

Inspector Alex of Panti said this same thing many years ago. He said and I quote him “Someone went to your hometown to build a house. He spent over 5 months and you come here to say he defrauded you. Is that how big men behave?”

That was the last of it.

____

The last time I heard of my Oga was when he put a fight with one of my carpenters he later employed as his contractor while they were building his 3rd house. They still went to police station.

The stories no one will come here to share.

I just weak. Some folks in exalted positions sabi fall hand sha.

I keep wondering why those who work in Fortune 500 companies will be behaving like touts.

______

I’m not talking about 3strikes o. Baba told me he was a tout before he left naija for Chicago

After today, no more questions for you no matter what comes up.
If you have case with anyone, take him or her to the official law court and have it trashed.

Back to my learning and question asking mode.
Me be learner for property section but not a learner on NL and likely older (membership) than 90% of posters on this thread. Only if you know.

erico2k2:
Dem sabi wetin dem dey do bross, as if dem nor know where all this picture allegation etc dey on here!

This is unnecessary
Brabus himself won't say I am an opposing side.

I am not one of those you are thinking.

erico2k2:
for 5 years now? wetin make dem talk wey dem never talk? make the guy just jail Brabus make we all rest

Straight to the point.

If you have a case and say you're a big man, why not do what big men do?

BrabusNG:
We’ve been doing this for over 7 years sir.

I can guarantee you we will always do this anytime I launch a new project here.

There were no issues until I launch XL6 Trillion Atrium House.

That’s just it sir!


_______

I’m sure another person will come to ask this again.

_______

They’ll derail any thread where I’m currently posting except safe and matured platforms where mods aren’t sleepy.

Quite understandable.

BrabusNG:
@somehow I gave an answer to your question already.

The project is 100% owner-managed with the owner acting as the General Contractor picking subtrades, suppliers and workmen he like to do the job.

Good. Since the owner was the main contractor, I wouldn't blame the subcontractors for anything.

dongc:
Oga do you really want to do this all over again
Go back to page 1 and start to read

Please stop that.

Those derailing everyday are not doing it on page 1.

Greenarrow01:
Brabus
I consider you to be one of the best on here. If not the best.
The truth is that despite all these allegations, I will still use you for my build when my money reach.
But for now
It's better you trash this talk once and for all.
If client brought you on to supervise the project pls talk.
If he made you to cut corners pls say.
Clients can be difficult sometimes.
I made my babalati to cut corners on one of my fence and it cost me.
I dare not blame him.
So pls bring on these people and trash this thing once and for all
Or
When they post pls stop quoting them.

Then I. Will trash talk some people on here
With all due respect.
Some of y'all are behaving like Hippocrates
I feel like mentioning names
But haba
Someone is derailing this thread.
Y'all can bring an end to this.
Bring both parties together and find an end to this issue.
Someone like egun mogaji is well respected by people on here. He can try to get both of them together.
These people still feel pain from their job with brabus.
And I am sure they can stop all these derailing if the bigger men try to settle it.

Imagine robosky bringing on a new mantra when this issue started
" All action and no talk"
This is obviously intended for brabus.
I think elders should always behave like elders.

Everybody just dey fuckup

Well said.

BrabusNG:
Not quite true. Read up. The old thread is still up there and ask your questions on that same thread.

That project is 100% owner-managed with the owner acting as the General Contractor while a small part was outsourced to Brabus.

Let’s not derail this thread by asking Brabus to provide same answer to the same issue to everyone who want to know more about the project.

The plan of the person who brought the issue here is to derail the thread and shift attention away from himself

We know the drills. He has failed to tell us what brabus did wrong on his project because there’s nothing he can lay claim on.

Well let’s demystify this other lie once and for all.


Don’t be in a rush. Just read the few posts on the project with an open mind and ask your questions. I don’t delete threads because of times like this.

Brabus

My question is straight. I don't want to derail this thread.
Before now, I have asked those dragging you up and down what exactly did you do to be called a fraud.

One has posted something that looks precise, so my question is simple.

What he posted, were you the one that executed it?

I'm not on any side here but the side of Truth.

Answering the questions here will put those coming to derail out of business once and for all. They are not derailing/posting on the old thread you are directing me to, it's here they are derailing/posting on.

BrabusNG:
Yes. Very serious on nairaland

Just substantiate it with evidence. That’s all!

Were you the one that worked on that part in the image?

That's the foundation. Were you responsible for the foundation?

3strikes:
House sinking cos Brabus/n3xt/nexthome/Bosun cut corners.

Serious allegation.

Was he the one that handled this?

3strikes:
I don't want to derail the thread but what if this was your investment, what would you do?

I'm hoping by this weekend I can get couple other clients attention to this post........ we fell into Brabusng's trap and our responsibility now is to prevent other people from making such mistakes.

So if Brabus is threatening to expose my real name and that of my family...He is yet to start. I have had gun held to my head and I still said what I needed to say. He himself knows how this is gonna end. Savages!

What happened to the floor?

3strikes:
Just so you new folks here are all caught up with this story,..... Pls understand that Brabus/n3xt/nexthome/Bosun have more than 5 different monikers / Usernames that he uses to attack, to like his own comments and to quote himself and respond. ( Pure madness and desperation). This is Just a heads up for those who don't know this guy that well....

I like the fact that the truth hurts and will steer my fellow diasporians away from this fraudster.

He Built QC1's home see pic below ....so just ask yourselves who is QC1 referring to?

Wow
swimming pool
How come?

JidennaJason:
Just drink Dano Milk and stay strong bro.
