I'm not a fan of POP on underdecking
There is never enough support
angry
I maybe wrong undecided

Hello Sir, your area of concern is genuine. However, I ensure to create extra support for decking areas & minimise the designs (One can do great designs, with enough support) , casted boards for decking areas are not to be heavy or too thick, all are done without compromising quality.

Below are some images that showcase our past Pop jobs on decking areas.

There are some POP guys i have seen using something like tornado nails on the decken in order to use it as hanger do something like binding wires that will be like extra holds to it and the design they say must not be too heavy

Plus any decken POP would be on standard cast and adequately mix too

All in all POP om decken are not to carry heavy designs, something like extra layers


You're very Correct on the bolded ,Sir. ✓

That's sounds good
But personally I prefer a pop casting ( like scettings) around the corners of the roof wall, a sharp screeded plaster and a nice paint.

Kappish!

You're talKing about Cornice design. (Nice interior finish)

@topic, I had a similar situation, but this was with OPIC ESTATE, after making payments for a land in one of their Estates, they started asking for all manner of funny fees angry, I told them that l don't have additional money to pay from what l was told to pay initially, I now requested for my refund, and OPIC personel were playing games with me.

I sat down with one of my friend who is a consultant and we drafted a serious letter to the CEO of OPIC, that letter rattled OPIC management angry, long story short, The CEO instructed the Account Department to refund all my money to me, the money was refunded back to me , they didn't take nor deduct any charges from my money, l got everything back. wink


Let me quickly add, This happened around 2017/ 2018. I was not physically on ground in Nigeria, but I was corresponding with my family back in Nigeria and also reminding the CEO that despite his instructions for me to get my refund, OPIC personel have refused, l think the CEO personally took interest in my case and I got all my money back grin

The CEO definitely doesn't want any problem for his company , might be scared you could put out his company name on air. cheesy

You were just lucky that your case happen when the OPIC MD was a GOOD MAN. I bought land from Opic simply because of the man. Since he left, the madness in Opic has returned again. Estate Play Ground has been sold to PADI and right in front of a Residential Estate, we now have an Industry built there. WHO DOES THAT

One lesson i have learnt in Nigeria is that we are our own enemy. Greedy Nigerians are killing their children without knowing or caring to know the consequences of their immediate act. I guess it because they believe that once they get the money, they can run abroad with their immediate family. Its sad because we are so deep in this mess and we don't even know how to stop and reset our mindset for good

Hello my people,

Nigeria is showing me pepper of recent. I got one land in an estate still within Ibeju-Lekki and I got allocated last year December or so. A few months later, we got news that another RE company came to claim the whole estate. (This estate is covered with genuine global C of O).

Since then (March 2022), the company has been begging and asking for more time to either get the estate back or relocate us.

From March till now, nothing has changed, been intouch with all the major players in the company (MD, CTO, secretary and even their lawyer), yet begging and stories are what I keep getting.

Can anyone recommend a better approach to getting my refund or at least getting another land without going the legal route?

I have 2 cases in court already (LAG and PH), one from last year June and another from July this year and I don't like the progress at all (Too much adjournments and excuses from the sitting judges and registrars) apart from the money it keeps taking from me.

Is the court the only way here? (Actually told their lawyer I was going to serve them papers but he said it will only prolong the matter).

Make una advise me abeg, this country is giving me some serious double mind.

Anyone with similar experience and how was it resolved?

Not sure if I made a mistake believing in this country.
My Boss, I understand the court part.

I left a 75M property after several adjournment! I hope to pick up the case once I have a better and mad lawyer.

How can a family recollect a land with CofO, lol, people get away with things like this because the Nigeria system is shitty

It's a jungle out there.

I think my sms to the MD and his CTO + my realtor taking the case to his association shook them a bit because I got a call from the CTO yesterday that they'll reallocate me come next week.

How much paint do I need? Let’s VALUE PAINTS show you a few steps on how to calculate your paint coverage.
Estimate the paint needed for woodwork, feature walls and any size room.

•How much paint do I need for my project?

•How many coats of paint is needed?

If you’re asking these questions, you’re not alone here are a few steps.

Buy too little paint and you end up back and forth to purchase more.

Buy too much and you end up with cans stacked up in the shed.
(although this could be useful for touch-ups!)
If only such thing as a paint calculator existed, eh?
Well, you’re in luck, because we’re here to show you just how simple it can be to calculate the paint you need with just three easy steps, no guesstimates necessary.

•Step 1 - Measure up

First off, you need to grab a tape measure to work out the height and width of the surface you want to paint.
Then, multiply the height and width together to get your square meter measurement.
Subtract any windows and doors by using the same calculation method and deducting it from the total.

•Step 2 - Calculate your coats

This is where we answer your how many coats of paint query.
If you use Value paint high-quality satin emulsion. Simply Refresh, you’ll only need to apply one coat of paint on a well-screened wall. But if you opt for a more durable finish, multiply your number by two (the number of coats needed).

•Step 3 - Divide and conquer

Finally, divide the number by the square metre per litre listed on your paint. And there you have it, you’ve worked out the amount of paint you need.
So that’s your how much paint do I need concern covered, but what about where to start?
