weka email hapa will forward to someone doing timber business for a quotation.....Timber is at Njabini Flyover, 2km from soko mjinga.


Is the Timber guy still operating and has he got quality roofing timber?


If Kenmac has not responded, i can give you his email address and you discuss your timber needs from there.If you do happen to visit the yard please accompany or send the guy who will be building your timber structure (assuming you are a newbie to construction like me).


Please pass the email, also by your experience do they have quality timber?


The only email i have is a corporate email ,which i am hesitant to post here.I will however give Ken some time to respond and advise.If he does respond in 2 hours time i will post the email anyway in good faith.
Regarding the timber quality ,i was happy with 70% of the timber ,my issue was when i was selecting 2x2 for ceiling the guys at the yard didn't give me a good deal for 'running feet timber'.This is due to them putting some very short pieces and never changed them even when my guy who was doing the roof requested them to work with a specified minimum length so as to avoid numerous joints.
I would advise you visit the yard with your fundi and agree on the length of the timber pieces before even paying anything.
Anyway i learnt my lesson and wiser now.

Kindly send me an email geofreygachie (@)gmail (dot) com and i will give you the email address.

Hi, I haven't visited this market section for a few days.

@geofreygachie, thanks for covering for me and thanks for the feedback. Will let them know the customer feedback. Asante.


@african coloner, let me know if you got your timber. Can still assist you if you haven't found any.
