@spyder880 good morning boss. Great work you have been doing here. I intend to tile my parents house. I just took the following dimensions
Sitting room 14ft X 20ft
Dinning 9.4 X 8ft
Waiting room 15.4 X 14.6 ft
Dad's room 14 X 10.11 ft
Mum's room 9.9 X 14 ft
Kitchen 7.11 X 9.3ft
First room 9.9 X 14 ft
Second room 14 X 12 ft
Third room 14 X 12ft

Kindly assist with a reasonable budget using the low cost Nigeria tiles you referred to in your "low cost" housing project. I appreciate your time in advance.
I intend to buy in Lagos and ship to village in my car.

PS: @mufutau55 your contribution is welcome.

Make sure it is properly packed if not there will be much waste.

Thanks for this insight... Any tips on the packaging?

Make sure they are put together, no space in between. The boys loading it will help you out, just make sure there is no space in between and let it stand.

Is your village far from lagos?
If it is i will suggest u buy close to your village, as your car won't be able to accommodate the number of tiles needed for d job. except u have a truck.

It is in Osun State, just a 3-hour drive from Lagos. I drive rx300, I can collapse the back seat for extra luggage space. Since I stay in Lagos and I plan to visit again in January, I thought I can save some money if I get them in Lagos. Can anyone recommend where I can get good prices for the tiles in Lagos?

Orile is the best place and u need to be there yourself to choose your choice

Do you know how many cartons of tiles the measurement will result to.
Your suv cant carry more that 30cartons of wall tiles
And this your measureement will give about 100 cartons of tiles. So ready to hire lorry for the tiles which will cost you about 40k to osun state.

Speaking from experience bcs i deal on tiles

Please i want ask if there is any disadvantage using hand moulded blocks instead of the one done by machine. And what is the durability and beautiful touch it brings if handled by a qualified bricklayer.

mufutau55:


Thanks for tbe detailed lecture sir.
The problem I have is that the Chat backup is never successful when I tried even before I swapped the phone, I dont know why. So this step can never be accomplished.
That is why I thought that I can just directly copy the database from the WhatsApp folders from the old phone to the new phone and everything will be good. But that did not solve the problem.
So now I am thinking the chat database on the old phone is corrupted but was still working.
So all the steps you mentioned have been tried... I guess I will just continue with the new chats to restore my sanity. Oh well.

Vibrated blocks are said to be more durable, but often times block sellers using machines are after profit, so the mix ratio is compromised. For me i care about mix ratio, which is most times compomise by sellers. Reason i go for hand mould blocks, at least i am sure of d mix.
Except for cases i can hire the machine for personal use.

Vibrated blocks are the best for a reason and is often called for in architectural designs.

The only reason that we consider handmade blocks in Nigeria is due to the economic condition we find ourselves in.

Either handmade or vibrated, the composition of material (ratio of cement/sand/water) is important as well as is the mix.

Good luck on your project.

Dont spoil that your nice Lexus, just because of saving a few thousand Naira!
Consider your Shock absorbers since Tiles are very dense and heavy articles, especially on this our bad roads.
It is not about space, it is about what it wil do to that nice vehicle.

Go to Orile, you will get good prices and assorted types but please dont transport them in your personal vehicle.

Thank you for asking. The garage apartment is indeed complete and we’ll be staying in it on the next visit. Alhamdulillahi.
