Thank you so much

Now I understand better.
Vocals:



From the second image, there's is an evidence of weathered basement so you might not need to go for a full casing except if discovered during drilling procedure that the weathered basement is loosed in this case you will require a cased down, also casing is charged based on quantity and not length, except in a situation where you are giving out the drill as a contract.

For this your report, your estimated cost should be around dept X charges per meter drill(5,500-8,000) for air compressed drill rig

While casing is sold around 16,000 to 21,000 per piece(each piece is 2.9m in length.)

But if going for rotary drill(small machine it's based on negotiation it goes between 10,000 to 15,000 per meter

Okay, because when I got the report, the man said to do full casing and gave me a price of 15k/metre for full casing.

He never really interpreted the findings/summary to me. Just told me 70m is fine and full casing is the best so as to avoid collapse.

See note below the summary (iii)
Vocals:


This result does not indicate that your are going for a case down drill.

Your overburden is less than 30m, which should give a fairly stable basement. So your 8mm/10mm casing is between 6-9 pieces.

This is it.

Vocals:


If you don't mind post your summary table page here.

For 70m
70M/2.9M = ~25 Casings

MrDraey(m): 10:54am On Jul 22, 2023
Did geophysical survey already.

I was advised to do full casing.

Location: Orozo Abuja.
Vocals:


Location?
So as to determine if you might end up not going up to that.
Also to determine if your casedown would require inner linking or not

He did a physical measurement of the room
BrickDevo:
53sqm since it turned out 50sqm was not accurate size of the room.
MrDraey(m): 10:22am On Jan 26, 2023

Good evening everyone,

Please I have a question; If a tiler gives me quotation, say total Sqm of 50 and I went ahead and bought 53sqm (in case of breakages) then in the process, tiler exhausts all 53sqm. Am I going to pay for the 53sqm I bought or the 50sqm he gave as the total sqm of the room?

Good evening house,

I have come again with my question.

Please which is the best way to buy tiles?
Eg I got a quote of 58sqm at 8000 for a 60x60 tiles which amounted to N464,000

But I was advised to divide the total sqm by sqm in 1 pack of 60by60

Please I want to know which is the best option to go with

He said there will be increment in coming days, he blamed the rise mostly on the flood. Star gips was 7,800 last

We agreed for 10k everything (2bed, kitchen, sitting room n dinning - he was the guy that did my roofing)
redgem:


How much to pay carpenter for scaffolding? This carpenter is requesting 4500 and he said that he will do 7 scaffolds for 3 rooms... Basically he wants to charge 31,500. Bolu1986 and hamtabfawaz is there no way to create scaffolds that can be moveable?
MrDraey(m): 4:06pm On Oct 10, 2022
He said casting board and range are his responsibility.

Bought ABS pop for 8k today
hamtabfawaz:



Very Good quotation: ✓
quickly give that person the job, before vendors increase the price of Pop!

PS: He didn't add casting board & Range, does he wants to cast on the floor! Ask him. (Perhaps he'd rent those & still ask you for money).

Hmmmm

Money's scarce, but the fear of cable theft.

Rany4all:
You could, but you'd probably spend more on labour.
MrDraey(m): 5:32pm On Apr 30, 2022
Oh, really... I thought I could still run cable after POP installation.

topsy23:


But you have to run the cables before POP. Cabling and POP can be done same time. It will be difficult to run the cable after clo the ceiling ..

Thank you all for your advices.

Although I have fixed both the front and back doors, also installed burglary protectors at the front and back, installed window protector and installed windows...

I won't be cabling now because I cannot trust the environment just yet.

Maybe when I'm close to moving in, I'll run the cables together with fittings.
