what's the point, you got the job already, client said he will connect with you. spoil another man's own to better yours so hope you are happy now. Maybe the bidder who dropped that quotation isn't on nairaland to even give reason why he needed those materials and he will be there wondering why client never got back to him. Smart one


What crime did he commit exactly? Why are you angry? So, he should sit back and watch them rip off the client when he can actually do a better job and save the client some funds for other projects. I am scared of people like you!

Why was this thread created in the first place? To help both artisans and clients, making things easy for both parties....so why attack him? What exactly was his crime?

Haa 50k ke grin them don take your head make paro my brother teak door and frame was 7.5k when I did the 2018 project.

I didn't know that teak doors are available for cash and carry to be honest. I normally make mahogany doors or Sapele wood doors. The outcome can be anything from 50k. Getting hold of teak wood instead mahogany is something I'm now willing to explore going forward. Getting teak, weather dry it proper to prevent warping and then make to doors could turn out cost effective.

For the mahogany door, is it with the frame and door with finishing you get for 50k? Or just door alone

at four lengths and 25ft, you will have an excess of about 10ft on at least three lengths of the channels. What do you do with such waste?

Joining channels is never a problem, with good welding, it's as good as new.

Prefer having full lengths of 37/38ft for increased pressure.

as a country,we produce little or nothing but love waste way too much. A storey building is between 23-25ft excluding parapet but you will want to go all the way to 38ft. What is the need if not to waste the resources and put pressure on the available resources.

Anyways, it's all profits for the welder if you go all in.

Attached is the ideal height of tank stand in comparison to any building. If you observe, the bottom of the tank stand is higher than the walls and parapet which are the highest point of the house. The shower heads which are the highest point user of the water is lower than the bottom of the tank stand still. You will have all the pressure you need. Everything else is just a waste.

These things are pure physics. It's just that we think we can get more by doing more but it doesn't work like that

Of course these things are pure physics.

Do you appreciate why public water towers are elevated so high? See attachments.

You will get pressure at 25ft like you said, but the pressure is optimal only when the tank is full. At half tank or lower half tank you experience significant pressure drop. In some situations, once you turn on the tap in the kitchen when someone are having their bath, you experience a drop in water pressure.

Experience has shown that the sure banker height for home use is at 40ft for duplex and four flats (storey building).

the reason why public waters are elevated is because they're not serving just a duplex. It's public water and there are instances where some houses are taller than 25ft and high as 50ft. You will not notice any drop in pressure until the last drop of water off your tank.

Going by your analogy,in instances where you have 4 storeys building,that means you will have to do 90ft tank stand since you want to double the height.
