Rear view

We have 3 vents here. The middle is for the visitors toilets and the other 2 is each to one flat. Good mechanical vent system will make the house odorless and easy for services in due time.

25 by 40 -- 5005 -- 51ctns " (visitors toilet wall diff design)
30 by 30 -- Ash -----9ctns. " (toilet floor)
30 by 30 -- Indomie Berg 9ctns. " (toilet floor diff design)

All tiles are Nigerian made.
We are considering space tiling * it's economical and easy to maintain too

So first of all, the workers have to get the floor clean up, mix the mortar 14 headpan :1 bag of cement depending the size of the room or parlour

Followed by leveling the mortar / screeding the floor

And tile laying

Now watch this,


Tile has front, sides and back, and when all the tiles are not facing one direction they (the tiles) must not be uniformly in line. It will look like some are bigger with some centimeters.

However, behind the tile you will see an arrow, the arrow is meant to face one direction. Educate your tilers for excellent job if you want a very good tilling job because 99% of tilers don't know about this.

Thank you. Very educative. I never knew about the direction of the tiles laying imprinted on the tiles itself. Good one for the novice like me/us.

Yes the labour is for, cast workers, masons, carpenters Iron workers is 235,000 +50,000 for electrician and plumber (As at that stage not for the whole project)


That is just the labour no need to make up what is not (my belief anyway)

More pics of the floor tile

Re: *** Building on an existing structure a storey Of One Bedroom (4 Flats)*** by dubemcapital(m): 1:00am On Jan 10, 2018
OK, moving on to wall tilling now.

This tile is 25 by 40mm --- design code 5003

Because it has to be suspended on the wall with a light mortar till when it dry to glue to the wall parmernently, it needs to be so socked in water for 20mins or more in preparation for that.

Pvc ceiling is on, but not a good idea for a pvc ceiling to be fixed before wall tiles it should be the other way round.
