Oh I’m very sorry about that!

Pleas kindly give me till afternoon. We might been increasing the order because we are currently planning to re-roof a new building in the church premise.

Maybe we can pick all the wood at once.

What’s the current price of reinforcement? I’ll be needing some quantities in coming days.
It’s best to buy now before the mad rush in January.

The bolded part though. They’ll always pass the tests until you carry out an unscheduled visit to their factory.

The top players (African Steel and African foundries) were caught and shut down mid-year 2021. So nothing surprise me anymore.

Hello house,

What kind of window designs need hoods?

Incase I didn't the question rightly, should all windows have hoods?

If not, what type of windows should not have hoods?

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

Thanks.



Painting after screening shouldn’t be above interior 2weeks exterior 3weeks if you want a perfect finishing and it also depends on the quality and paints company you intend using for your building.

All windows most have hoods! For beautification of the house or the building, now listen, either u are using casement windows or sliding windows, they both need hoods for aesthetic beauty, if we solve your problem let us know if not, my bosses we buttress this issue.

Thanks

If it's just for aesthetic beautification, then it can't be a must.

Another Naija accepted "truism" that really is a "falsism".

IMO, this particular fable hurts us and leaves us subservient to foreign exchange fluctuations - importing iron ore in this day and age!

Iron at the molecular level is the same whether produced from ore, or from reclaimed metal. Both have 'impurities' to be removed and it is the way these are handled that decides the final quality outcome.

I’m running the numbers to see if I can setup a sawmill. Not my area of expertise though I’m a woodworker.

My concern is if Nigerians will pay extra to get grade lumber.

just look at just how the woods are cut to size uniformly, over here you will be confused if the size presented is 4 inches or 3 inches.

Even though I really don’t like being in the USA but I realize within minutes of being on the ground how backasswards I’ve been living for the past three years.

I think I missed this post.

Based on my own understanding, not all houses calls for window hoods. It depends on the style of the house and what the architect came up with in the totality of the project.

I followed what my esteem architect drew.

If "Enemies Are At The Gate" then proceed to foundation immediately. As in active and continuing construction.

However this only delay things unless you continue building.

I'll advise you do the fence and gate and write boldly on different parts of the fence the usual warning "THIS PROPERTY IS NOT FOR SALE, BEWARE OF FRAUDSTERS". Then you immediately commence the process of perfecting the land docs if you have not done so already.

Best wishes.
