Hi Swamy

As u said u have given labour contract for 26 k ,, is it full site or wall to wall measurements?. And electrical contract 2.0k is it includes POP wiring also ?

Thank you

Hi,

It's Roof to Roof measurement for labour contract. Whatever comes under that will be covered as a part of contract. Regarding the Electrical contract also it's roof to roof contracts - any no of points connections, wiring, will be covered.

POP wiring means is it false ceiling are you mentioning.In haven't yet decided on POP design yet.

Swamy. I'm really sad that your floor plan is very poorly designed.

@ Prasad - Could you please revert with your points about the design flaw, I want to understand and need to check for any gaps and improvement can be done.

Hi
Good day
As per my survey u have given very good price for labour contract. Electrical contract same as u mentioned.
Coming to borewell motor is it necessary to go 5 HP ? Otherwise everything is absolutely fine. Good going.

We cant see your attachment anymore and cant comment. Further from what I remember it was a good plan and nobody can be a better judge on what u need so better to go ahead if satisfied.
