But why would the use of spacer affect the price of the job? Spacer is very cheap, its just laziness and lack of attention to details that would make some people not use it.

There's price to every standard Sir..... that's what i mean Sir

sethtsadopp:




Please what are the spacers and what's it used for?

Plastic toothpicks

sonnie10:


Plastic toothpicks

That's not what spacers are like....they cross like plastic and has sizes in different 2mm 4mm 6mm e.t.c

If a tiler is using anything like plastic tooth pick....maybe it's just for using sake.......

azpekuliar:


It is an object, shaped like a cross. It’s purpose is to ensure that the spaces between tiles are even or consistent. They come in sizes. Our artisans hardly use it. They prefer sharp sharp work.

Oh wow. Didn't know about it. Just checked it online. I already have a Tiler we've agreed on N400/sqm, Will labour cost increase considerably if I insist on my Tiler using it? If yes, what will be a fair addition in that case, just to ensure perfect work. And will I be the one to buy it or it's part of their materials for work.

You will buy it but first ask your tiler if he's good in using the spacer....some tiler can't use some tools......
Labour cost of #400/m with spacer....na wah naija

Good things they say....na money finish am
Many contractor/engineer just wanted perfect work while they don't for it

#250/square meter.....
#300/square meter
#400/square meter

You see all this price.....the tiler will have to work extremely hard to have enough to part with after job

How tiler wan do 20 square meter a day and also pay helper....how much e go remain?
And later do cleaning with perfect finishing........ that's why you will see artisan that will rush work just to part with enough money at the end

Normal normal if all safety procedures are being put into place in tiling

There won't be any tiler that will even take some certain amount i have heard in my entire time in tiling works

Think all those edge in your toilet/bathroom are with genesis
Architectural drawings follow up in layings

Tiler will just do normal 10 square meters a day with perfection and satisfying job

Check YouTube and see some Italian or Spanish mode of tiling
Nigeria we no wan pay but want sweet looking jobs

Please read again. I never said N400/sqm with spacer. N400/sqm is what we have agreed on the job since 2 weeks ago. I'm just learning about spacer tonight and I'm asking what will be a fair amount to increase the labour to, if I insist on him using spacers for a perfect job. Clear?

Understood Sir
Please make sure the tiler affirm to use of

spacers for the tiles.....there some tiles that doesn't fit for spacers too
Some 60by60 tiles are better with no space and some wall tiles too....

Thanks sir.....

If you do not mind Mowe Ofada, got a plot for you there at Queens Park estate ph2 with some millions to spare off your budget.

Distance to Ikeja (peak) is 1hr03mins.

That place is ORILEMO, far from MOWE-OFADA proper. I don't know why these developers are calling there MOWE-OFADA.

If they know how to use it, insist that they do.

somehow:
It's an Estate.
About 10 minutes drive to the main road.
Located at Orile Imo around International Breweries Plc, Sagamu Interchange, Obafemi Owode Local Government.

For more information, just type the Estate name into google, and you will get more details and pictures for better-informed decision-making.

That's correct.

@Kvngfrosh make sure you have a small car though to take you around and out of the place.

Hi guys any lead on where I can get this type of cornice?

You would get it in Yaba. (Visit shops, that make mould only).

Thanks. I was considering between wooden tiles and brick for the marked area. Now, I do think this reflective tile might even be better. How much per square meter?

Good day sir.
Kindly update your price, if there has been changes in these prices above.
Which type of paint would you recommend for an exterior painting(cost-effective, no fading).

I need some advice regarding borehole. Site is in Obada, Abeokuta
I did 2 geo-surveys and they both pointed to same thing, similar spots.
I contacted 2 drillers. One is charging me about 1.9m for the total package and the other one is asking that I pay him as things unfold. drill, installation, procurement and I'll later pay for his service charge (he hinted that around 1.5m will sort everything). I have done borehole in my previous project but this seem to be an entirely different experience.
They both said that they're going to be using the Indian drilling machine.
Kindly offer your advice. I want to get it right this time. I already wasted 600k on a deep well, with the pumping machine now stolen.

Nigerian artisans generally lack finesse no matter how much they are paid. Tilers who work without spacers are no different from a painter who rather than take his time to use a masking tape to cover all electrical socket covers before painting a wall, will rather paint over them and tell you he has done a good job.

You may use premium grade emulsion sir.
It's durable for external use also it just doesn't have the low sheen or cleanability like the matte.

I can't invest in high end tools to make your work better then I will now charge peanut to carry out the job.. na

Lol Good morning sir.....it all depends on experience Sir..........
Also some artisan lack the sense of improvement and getting updated/informed about new techniques
How can an artisans not try to read or have time on research about his/her job......
Everyday should be learning new things by artisan just to be informed

You will hear somethings from artisan like...."but it's my work na you can teach me how to do it"
You see those words irritate me much.....as an artisan you have to be open to learning new ideas
Let me say something like skill upgrading programs or times should be spare for skill upgrading....

My painters use masking tape and membrane for floor.
Although most would require some strict supervision for compliance.

Yes with your overbuden, you need the Indian drillers or locals with the right machines. They are mostly in Ibadan. They couldn't do mine in Sagamu axis because of the overburden of 50m my survey has. I had to use the company that has been drilling in the estate. I paid 550k early this year. I can give you contact of the Ibadan folks and you share your survey with them but you do your diligence.
