Simple.

For those always using the price of old to tell the tales of how Nigeria has "spoilt" should not forget that when lands sold for ₦500, average earnings might not have been above ₦10 to ₦50.

michlins:
not really sure. Nigeria has never been easy from day one.

Sometimes I think it's easier now sef. Take for instance, you can get jobs from strangers via Nairaland,an opportunity that never existed then. With more people earning better than ever, opportunities have increased tremendously. Before now, building has been reserved for the elites and they build once in a while. Right now[b], every Tom, dick and Harry is building even if it's "kobo kobo" project[/b]

Pls who can explain how we can pre-install kitchen heat extractor ventilator pipe?

No videos on YouTube for this

Your dad tried. Ogbor hill was the choicest area in Aba then. Hope you are also buying lands that your children will inherit?
I still remember our road trips from ikot ekpene through Aba we would stop over at intersoft drinks to buy some cool drinks. That spot had the best bread and roasted chicken ever. Then we would drive pass NTA towards the railway and head to Aba Owerri road.
That was when curtix just started producing electric cables. You would see their bill boards along the highway then.

Then whether you were resident in Aba or on transit, their tax collector were very mean. They would waylay any young man and bundle him to their office if he couldn’t provide his “Rate paper “

This is very interesting, the question is. Do they pay back at the value of 1976 or at value of 90s

I saw a miracle, a differently able mason who covered more grounds in square meters or inches whichever is your unit of measurement than all the fully able masons I have ever worked with.

If you need a mason in the FCT who cares more about turnover than being daily paid. He is your guy.

One more example of never judge a book by its cover.

FEGEITOK:
How many days to wait between rendering a wall and painting that wall?


- 28 days
- a few days

Is the answer the same for external and internal walls?

Obviously, the answer is not the same for dry and wet season. In the absence of a direct answer to the question, I will err on the side of caution and let the walls be.

I have seen the 28 days narrative in several places. Might have to wait till next year to paint.

chidi4eze:
Please, is rendering same thing as shredding. If yes, so it is advisable to wait 28 days after shredding before painting?

Thanks.

If you are in East cutix is okay . 2.5mm cable for AC? IEE standard says 4mm. Below are the recommended cable sizes for appliance by IEE regulation

1.5mm is lighting lighting
2.5mm is for socket
4mm is for AC and water heater
6mm is for cooker

KolaShangOne:


4mm Is widely used for cooker.. I think it can handle it, right?

FEGEITOK:


Do you mean screeding?

chidi4eze:

Yeah sorry my autocorrect

FEGEITOK:


Disclaimer: Layman speaking!

Screeding is composed of cement which may be Dangote or POP + screeding paint + glue (usually Top Bond).

I found this somewhere on the internet:

cement based screeds should not be force dried


Also saw 7 days per centimeter of thickness which can easily amount to over a month of drying time

I also saw ball park drying time 1mm per day

My conclusion is this, I will draw out the finishing time. I will wait a full one month especially for interior screeding.

Something else, I've read about watering the plastered walls, but not much has been said about that on this thread (or I haven't stumbled on it if it has been said).

Seems that these are trade secrets, hence no one is spilling the beans.
