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.
It's the reason cement screeding tend to consume more paint as it draws more water from the paint to complete it's hydration.
Rain, dew and moist air tend to prevent the excessive paint consumption.
The paint may not go far and not be sufficiently opaque unless it is primed before painting.
Anything portland or regular grey cement still needs more water after drying to complete water requirement for full setting.

We’d be playing with a 16ft diameter sky/open heavens mural on this project to give the church a feel of expanded atmosphere.

I’m still looking for the before pictures of this project to show how things have changed on the 5 decade old building.

I just can’t imagine we could achieve all we did in less than 4 weeks despite my extremely busy schedule.

New builds can’t be as challenging as renovations. Especially when you have to contend with elements (weather) and unavoidable church events/programmes.

The project is currently at substantial completion stage for those who get confused with my big grammars.
The church is now fit for use while we advance into other state of work.

What do you guys think?

Cornice or No cornice?

The new trend is to do the POP wall to wall. But as a personal preference, I kinda love to see cornice used in POP ceiling.

The bold cornice always stand out… not the tiny ugly ones… for now a lot of client prefer no Cornice.. cornice still make sense

I’m not always bothered about dramas and criticism.

The first to criticize are those doing less than you.

Just for laughs.
How many carcass got completed in 2 months on this platform?

If we have them, what percentage does it represent ?
How many of such were build without asking for additional cost despite the increase in the cost of materials?
How many of such provide additional support service (generators, pumping machines, mixers, pokers, welding machine etc) at zero cost to their project owners?

I rest my lord! grin

Thanks for your input.

I reread one of my sources and saw:

To fully allow the screed to dry out will take 10 weeks! (assuming the concrete is dry under add a month per 25mm!)

to set hard enough to latex a few days

This means painting can be done after waiting for say at least a week if I read that right.

"Our friend" is never bothered about completing projects as contracted and PAID for.
I made a challenge to him years ago on this platform to show a job he has started and completed from start to finish to the satisfaction of his client. He has none to show.
Then he will come here exchanging words with his clients and insulting them calling them broke!
It is all good and flowery words until money has changed hands...then it is unto the NEXT PROJECT. THAT IS HIS SCAM.

Like I said he will continue with his scam on this platform

Can I have samples of the following brick tiles tomorrow?
I’d appreciate if you can send to the same location you deliver the other stone tiles or I can send someone to pickup.

We need to finalize discussion on the tiles and I need to show the samples to my client for final approval

Thanks. Pls treat as urgent.

It is truly baffling.
This thread was full of his fraudulent activity from 2016-2017.
I was also a diaspora person remotely (and visiting) supervising a family project and trying to gain some insight for our project.
from Qc1 to maverick to babalose, 3strikes so many nairaland people especially diaspora that he defrauded.

HIS TRACK RECORD OF BAD AND FRAUDULENT ACTIVITY IS ALL OVER THIS THREAD

-Fake building approval
-Theft of material/fund
-Non completion of contracted work.
-Shoddy/defective work.
-No damp proof course(Building was leaking water from underneath floor)
-False structural work(cement bags in structural concrete)
-Insulting and calling clients names/broke

just to name a few.

He has never completed a job as contracted. I though we were successful in showing people his who he is, so they can be informed, unfortunately, another person is in a hole because of him. The first google search of his name is literally fraud.
has been arrested and docked for fraud.

People need to be cautious especially diaspora people.

This is not juju.

He simply relies on the fact that there will always be people desperate to build everyday.
Plain and simple.
Many of his former disgruntled clients and good spirited people were able to make his track record on this forum clear, so that new people do not get scammed
