Weldone boss, you truly know your onions and I want to tap from your wealth of experience. Sorry to digress, What is the best material to use in patching holes on roof(Metcopo steptiles) to prevent water leakage on POP ceiling? Silicon gum , flash band or what else and which is the best? Thanks a million and God bless you.

We use a combination of items, depending on where the leak is, use flash band for the under side.

It depends on the sand and aggregate combination you want to use. Let an engineer or a building professional see your materials and advice you better. Thanks.

My carpenters are still busy working on this roof, we might complete the wood works by this weekend.

Prof. Sorry for bringing us back, I took a closer look at this update and want to confirm that the total cost of N516,880.00 was what it took to complete all the block work from decking to casting of lintel and completion of parapet independent of the cost of blocks. Am I right?

Yes, apart from cost of blocks, sand, cement, water and some rods which we had on the ground prior to the block setting stage.
