Hmmm why will he charge separately for skirting?

Same question I asked, his answer was simply "that is how it is done, that skirting is not charged per square meter but per meter" So I am asking here if it is the norm so I can take correction.

Apparently this guy with this profile @torqque7 is a friend to the Nairaland and Jiji scammer I’ve been posting. They work together hand in hand. Please be careful of him too. He is also a known carpenter SCAMMER IN ABUJA. HE WILL ALSO COLLECT YOUR MONEY AND RUN. THERE ARE MANY OF THEM ON NAIRALAND ESPECIALLY ON THIS PARTICULAR THREAD LOOKING FOR WHOM TO SCAM. HE IS A FRIEND TO THIS ADEDAMOLA MICHEAL AROJOJOYE. THEIR TARGET IS MOSTLY THOSE IN DIASPORA BECAUSE THEY BELIEVE THERES NOTHING THEY CAN DO AFTER SCAMMING THEM. PLEASE BE CAREFUL. GOD WILL KEEP EXPOSING ALL OF YOU THIEVES.

Guys please I need urgent help. I just completed my floor tiles and wall tiles for the kitchen and toilets. The total tiles I bought is about 298 square meters. I paid my engineer 1800 per square meters. I had a space I carved out in the four toilets for keeping soaps, he said that tiling those spaces are separate charge and each costs 10k, making it 40k, he said that the skirting of the tiles is also a separate work, he said each meter is 400 naira and he calculated it 156meters for the skirting.

Please I stand to be corrected and if the bill is in order, I will pay it, but I argue that I was meant to be charged expressly as per the amount of tiles placed which was meant to simply be 1800 multiplied by 298.
Your tiler don jam better client. grin

The 1800/sqm you agreed to pay showed him you're a novice, so he decided to feast.

In one of my project, the person doing the plastering is saying he isn’t going to plaster the deckings in the first and second floor of the house because they will be covered by PoP. Also he is saying he doesn’t plaster (rough) kitchens and bathrooms because the tiler will still end up making use of plastering mix while installing tiles in these areas. Are these normal?

Since you are installing pop no need to plaster under the deck.. it’s waste of materials and labour.. as per the kitchen wall u might speak to your tiler first

You might not necessarily plaster the decking if you want consider using pop in all the area. For the kitchen and toilet you don't need to do a smooth plastering in those areas if you are installing full wall tiles.

Thanks chief. Perhaps I didn't ask the question well enough. I meant workmanship for casting of 4' DPC on a 30×60ft area. All materials provided.

Now I get it.

You will need a concrete group sometimes made of women. There is no fix price. It is by negotiation and the negotiated price is dependent on the community and the community youths. There is normally a price range for each community. The more difficult and unorganised the community, the higher the price. For 30x60ft, 4 inches thick, plus or minus 150k is not bad.

You will need tappers. For your project size, two tappers should be enough at plus or minus 40k for both.

You will need carpenter for boarding. Plus or minus 40k is not bad.

Note that the concrete people is all inclusive. This means they will provide shovels and headpans. That is everything they need to do the job. Some group will want to test you and offer you a slightly lower price and ask you to provide shovels and headpans. Don't accept this option. You will spend more and your job may be delayed.

Have you heard screeding to fully dried floor laying, whereby you screed the floor and lay maybe the following day? With gum and cement with combing trowel

Different types of Tiling dey.... You can never conclude a fixed price for tiling works.....

Hello all,

We decided to proceed with the renovation of the building in Lagos and I insisted on doing everything according to the books. So we've paid safety commission, town planning, omo onile money. These already costs over 3m already. According to the engineer only Labca approval is remaining. I told him I don't want backdoor approval. So he sent me this list, that's requested from Labca official. Which totals over 4.3m. I think This expenses are outrageous. Can someone please help if this is how things are done? cc diordaves acmebuilding billions123

Lagos State is really making hell of money with this lis. I believe the 2.2m for tax can be negotiated.
