Evening Guys. Got this below quotation from a GMP guy. Is this realistic? Will be using EKANS Aluminum profile. Do they charge labour separate even when they are the ones buying materials?

3X4 @ 56800X 16 = 908 800

2X2 @ 24000 X 5 = 120 000
3X5 @ 58600 X 1 = 58600
3X7 STAIR CASE @ 58 000.
TOTAL = 1 349 800.
LABOUR AND TRANSPORT 80 000
.GRAND TOTAL = #1 429 800 .

FOR ALUMINUM PROTECTOR >
16MM ROD @ 8500 X 12 1/2 LENGHTS = 106 250 .
ALUMINUM INFILL @ 5000 X 25 LENGHTS = 125 000 .
SCREWS 2 PKTS = 3000.
WELDING WORK @ 30 000 AND LABOUR @ 30 000. TOTAL COST = # 294 250.
Offcourse any company would charge for workmanship...you paid for materials and accessories

Don’t let this shock you “ the guy is right”

If Screed wall is too glossy satin paint will peel off”
It’s from experience.
So once he used sharp sand paper it will give it smooth surface with little friction which will allow the paint to hold.

Reason why you will see your office satin paint peel off on too glossy surface at time by your furniture set

Gbadex will explain very well on this I know he might have experience it too.

.

Paint needs a surface to adhere to.

If the surface is too smooth the bond between the paint and the wall is not as strong as if the surface was a bit rough, same reason why vulcanizers roughen the insides of a tire before applying a patch.

Otherwise it would barely stick. The wall is non porous and has zero to no texture for the paint to adhere to.

That's the simplest way of putting it.

Instead of sandpaper, buy a bucket of Contract Matt mix it 30 percentage part water and apply as first coat (mist coat). Then you can apply the paint of choice. It will not peel.

Or prime the wall first before the paint of choice. No peel.

We know he is right
So he was just going to come and start putting paint on the wall
He need to sandpaper the F wall
He is trying to play the dude for more money
3 bedroom for 60k is very reasonable
the painter na thief
I want to assume the 60k is for internal and external.
No matter how smooth a wall is, they would still need to give a very light smooth sandpaper because the screeding can't be perfectly straight and to improve adhesion.

Yes sir, priming first is even much better, however there may be need for very light sandpaper if the painter feels it's not level in some places despite the glassy smoothness.

Yes you are correct. There needs to be some micro texture for traction. The paint would even fill and smoothen everything.

He should use the correct type of sandpaper (120 to150) to do the work or better still let the painter do it if he isn't a DIYer like some of us.
