N D Gade Engineer & Contractor

We are out in Sonawad, in the Osmanabad district. Our office is located in Shmbha Ji Nagar, right on the main road. It’s a bit of a drive to get here if you’re coming from the city, but we like the space we have. N D Gade runs the place, and he’s usually here early every morning. The building is simple, just like the rest of the town. We have a big porch where the workers sit and wait for the day’s assignments. Inside, the office is filled with the smell of old paper and ink. We handle a lot of local contracting work, so there’s always something to do with roads or small buildings in the area. The main road outside gets a lot of tractors and local buses passing by, so it’s never truly quiet. We don’t have a website or any of that fancy stuff. Most people just know us by name and come to the office when they need something. We keep our records in big handwritten registers and some newer folders. It’s a bit dusty because of the dry weather in Osmanabad, but we don't mind. We take our lunch under the big tree out back when it gets too hot inside. It’s a slow and steady kind of life here in Shmbha Ji Nagar. We’ve been doing this for years and plan to stay right where we are. It is hard work but it is what we know.
