My brother, its a long story. Using the top of a building as a base to mount the water tanks has been a practice which was popular back then. But not anymore.

Firstly, a homeowner who wants tanks to be on his rooftop will have to plan this from the start, and so there should be provisions made for the additional load of the water tanks in the structural drawings of the building. The nature and functionality of 5he tanks should also be planned to details.

Going back to what I was saying, water tanks has caused so much damage to houses that people started looking elsewhere for their water storage needs, like stand alone overhead tanks and metal towers. There is always the issue of leaks, either from the water being pumped or leaks from the tanks itself, even rainfall can cause some water to remain at the tank base if it's at the top of a house.

These leaks find it's way into the core of the building, degrading the materials like concrete and iron rods which starts to rust. Over the years there might be structural failures which will damage the house, if not causing a building collapse entirely. The leakage also defaces the house, you will see some houses with algae growing around the walls, it's always very unsightly.

Well done boss

Thank you Sir.

3 satellite dishes, many air conditioners

We are leaving this site before we start being a nuisance to the tenants who paid to enjoy this building. Just a few things to fix today, and a very few complaints to address. My workers are around for the final bits before we relocate to a new site........

The compound is filling up............

I learnt there are new ways of doing it with tiles to avoid waterlogging or being wet.. In my city, nobody puts tank on These irons, is all on the base

We've done all those things, tiles, rubber glazing, smooth plastering, slanted tops, everything.

And yet the problem U talked about persist?

Time to go.......

Please what's filling up those tanks?
Is it the well or there is a borehole

We dug another deeper well, it has been serving the occupants well.

Sometimes it solved the problem, other times, it persists. It depends on the original design.

Good morning Oga mi, we have had to redesign this generator base in line with our new need of more facilities here. Since the existing tank stand wasn't designed to carry an additional water tank for the security post, we are having to redesign this generator base to serve the additional purpose of bearing a small tank on its top. That's what I am trying to achieve by next week, and we dont have much time as tenants who paid for this house are all waiting to move in. Thank you Sir.

do each flat have it own personal water tank?

checkmatez:

Yes, each flat has a 500 gallon water tank mounted and connected.

What is the size of this land please? And did you meet all setback requirements?
