Yes. It is cheaper to buy iron in tonnage, as long as you have safe place to save it from rust due to rain.

Oh Thank you so much sir

I say this with all due respect, the idea of a safe list is most ridiculous and unwise.

Some good guys have gone rogue on here. And those are the ones we read about. Many sordid issues were sorted offline that we never heard about. I have heard from a few diasporans who were duped but took their lumps and simply moved on. Some of the alleged duper’s are sons of the soil of this section,

Words of wisdom! There's no such thing as a "trusted list". It's different strokes for different folks.

Boring hole is a must because the heat should be extracted out. You need to pipe it out using 75mm PVC pipe.

I agree that the best option is to bore out of the room but where this is not possible, there are recirculating type hood extractors where the air is moved through a filter in the same room. These things are primarily for odor elimination than heat extraction.

Greetings and salutations.

Plumbers, professionals and amateurs like me, please peruse my attached drawing and see if my ploy will work.

The intent is a single supply source for both tanks to reduce daily work.

Thanks.

Oga Egun I greet u sir,

Below is my own water tank layout.

* one line supply both tank from borehole. Get filled same time.
* both linked to supply water to block of flats same time. So both get empty same time.
* both connected to same over flow vent.

Perhaps if we could have some kind of escrow service powered by seun on nairaland or partner with jumia that could help.

You smart, apart from being trusworthy as a Paint provider, this is the second time yo are raising this issue!

Unless @Seun will have a percentage of the escrow amount, it is never gonna happen. grin grin

If you read my post, someone here said to move it to private discussion so it does not get a ban angry

@Sako, your idea looks good but dont you think that unless the buildings are equal distance from the tanks, one building will experience shortage when water level gets low, due to relative lower pressure?

It's doable sir. I bet it would grow beyond nairaland and cater to the numerous mini importation sales groups.
I will be following keenly on the proposition.

I agree with you 101% that it can work and the more l think about it, the more l am convinced that if l collaborate with two or three good people here, it can be made to work.
I have a written proposition on the issue, very detailed, what it requires, the processes to make it work, costing, software, funding, hardware, personel, etc.
I posted it earlier in that post above and someone PM'ed me to remove it and discuss it privately.
If you give me an Email, even a random one, l will send it to you for your comments and inputs.

Good afternoon people,
Does the shape of interlock (T, Z, double T etc) confer any special advantage in terms of strength/durability aside costmetic choice?

thank you

No really but they come in various thickness which depends on the usage.

What makes it 3.5M (or #7M for a Plot), apart from the Ajah/Badore name?
- What are its rental value, of houses around the place as of now?
- How close is it to future infrastructures like the "proposed" Airpot, Refinery, etc
- How to close to the Main road is it?
- What is the road network in its environment like?
- What is the "quality" of the people (your neighbours grin ) around the place
- What is the value of other lands in the area, at this moment?
- How close is it to the Ocean? Can you see or hear the waves from its location?
- You said it needs sandfilling, it that because it is a 'brackish' swamp or it is good, sandy land but just because it has a low elevation wrt the main road?

I am asking all these so you can evaluate the value you are getting for that amount. It is difficult to just say it is "good/bad' value for that amount, since only you have seen the land itself.
You need to make an objective evaluation, taking all the above into consideration.

There are lands in that axis that cost #800,000 only while l also have a plot in the same Place around Cheveron, that some are willing to pay me #35M cash right now but l am not selling because l think the value will skyrocket soon, once certain thinks take shape along that axis.

Does anyone have an idea what costs for top quality plastering costs.

I have a quote for external 800m2 @ between 700 -1200 N per Sq M
And internal 1200 sqM @between 900 -1400 N per Sq M.

All these are just for labor and does not include materials.

Good Evening House,

We diverted water from our Kitchen and Bathroom of the Six Flats to the Soakaway. Suddenly we just used it for 7 Months and It got Filled Up and all water started entering the septic tank and got it filled up too.

What is the best solutions for us to resolve this problem?

The area the house is situated don't have a drainage System or Gutter.

Thanks

Sure, 3M can build a bungalow.

But not the kind of project any contractor or engineer will get involved in.

I can help you by proxy. The design will be simple but nice if you are ready am ready sir.

I just recently started commenting & posting here again after a few years break and my first posts since then where about houses for sale (as I was advised) which is actually my side gig & not the door business (which is the main thing I do). So don't be quick to judge. Someone here advised me to open a thread for the doors so the pictures will be seen, & I will do just that. Hope you check it out.

Thank you

It depends on what you want and what attracts you. and the purpose you are getting it. Land in that axis is expensive and you will still need sandfilling as you rightly said.
