Muyesky: I seconded "Oga remcoface". Thanks for the explanation and details on the tiles. This will help some of us. Three more questions and requests below, please: 1. We need to see the pictures of those tiles, I need to see the color combinations for each area, please. 2. I will assume the sizes for those tiles in bracket are in cm e.g. (30cm x 60cm), right? 3. What is the prices for W/C's and washing hand basins? I will shoot you an email later, I need info about a place to get a good bargain tiles.. I know you like bargain too. Hajji Mufutau 1 Like |

We are starting with the wall tiles for all bathrooms, kitchen and store. The tiles had to be soaked in water first. This enables it absorb water or moisture so that it can hold on to the raw mixture of pure cement and water to produce a very strong and rigid finishing. 1 Like

Muyesky: Thank you Muyesky for the updates on this work. The work is really looking nice already. God will help you finish it. And Yes, more update pictures is surely helping me especially.. I am at the same stage for my MQ. By the time I am ready I will absolve more knowledge and color combination from your work. Are this Spain or Italy tiles? Ceramic or Porcelain, etc? My email will still come after I see more update pictures, because some of my questions are being cleared already. Hajji Mufutau 2 Likes |

mufutau55: Thanks Hajji Mufutau, the wall tiles are ceramic cos u really dont need porcelain for them and thats the essence of using only raw cement and water to paste them. However, it is highly recommended that the floor tiles be more of porcelain cos it is more stronger and does not fade as compared to ceramics. The wall tiles are from China and in like two months from now, theey are starting production in Nigeria in a mega factory they are putting up in Chinese village (free trade zone) Agbara. then, we expect it to be more cheaper. The sitting room tiles are however from United Arab Emirate. |

Muyesky: Thanks for the detailed info. I surely like the color and size of the one they are putting up in the pictures above, I believe those are 25x40cm sizes. Very good and color is nice too.. Thank you and keep the pictures and details coming. Hajji Mufutau |
