@ Am Alone,
I must say a big kudos to you on your taste and passion for quality.I fall into the same category.
The biggest problem with building in 9ja is finishings.One can spend millions on the carcass and still end up with a house not looking as nice as half the actual cost.
Can you send some pictures and contact info of the person who did your windows(with the specifications in terms of wether the windows come with engine opener or manual, powder coated etc) and the tiles (floor and walls) to my address at   shawlar_0@yahoo.com (pls note it is zero after shawlar not alphabet).
I am seriously looking for a professional tile laying person.I am yet to see one that meets my standard.A lot of them don't  use the right material and technique for grouting and that is very important in the outcome of the tile laying job.
     


My man, I am yet to get a perfect tiler o!!!! Tiler doing my work now for my standard I think I can give him 7
The work he did for my master bedroom for me is 9 over 10 and I really applaud him on that one.
The other guy he came with that did the visitors toilet, get another 9 for work done so far!!!!!
Another guy he came with deserve jus 4 (THANK GOD HE DIDN'T DO MUCH WORK).
But for another toilet inside the house, the main tiler score 7 for my standard!!!!!!!!
Lastly, he started the kitchen today(Main tiler).
I went there this evening to see the work done so far!!!!!
For the kitchen work, I give him 1 over 10.
He was apologetic. What can I say
LOL!!!!!!!
You won't believe he has to remove the WHOLE TILES on the kitchen wall
When I complained(The guy is humble I must say and don't want to displease me because they know I pay upfront without dept). . .

So for now, I don't think I can give you his number as I am still verifying him.
But for the Window guy, check you mail!!!!!

Lastly @ TBrownAuto My aluminium roof is 0.55 Guage and goes for 1400 per square meter

@ Spyder, honestly, what I was looking for in the market, I couldn't get it!!!!

So I wont give my tiles much credit.
It is 2 over 10 for me!!!!!

I wanted marble but the prices was outrageous especially for the exact one I wanted

it was 15k per square meter I had to step low.
And for the marbles tiles. I got just one color
for the sitting room and dining because of the size i went for
So for me it was loose loose!!!!!

The kitchen tiles I liked, I couldn't get up to what I needed
and for the toilet tiles I went for, I was supplied something else( for the floor tiles)

So for me its still 2 over 10!!!!1
But its all good!!!
So don't expect much!!!!

Peace

@ Playless

My roof cost me roughly 850k including workmanship(70k). .55mm was the gauge for aluminium used
the workmanship includes removing the old roof and re-arraging the wood work to fit with aluminium and roofing the security house.

Peace!!!!

@prince

Okay!!!! I don hear you!!!!

I wish I knew it was fake.

Anyways the same roof has the original
I couldn't differentaite!!!!

Again lot of ppl here on NL made me make that mistake

The price I got it was 2600 but the original one as I have learn sell for 3600.

So that It the difference. When everybody was shouting I was spending too much

I though I go for something cheaper not knowing there was a difference. . . . . . . .
Anyways, I love the new look of my house more!!!!!

Peace!!!

Before I post any updated pictures of my house so far, I will like to use this medium to tell some of you that know me
that the roof of my house was changed!!!!!
Reason: I later found out that it was fake. It was made of Iron instead of Steel and has already started rusting.
I have to bring the whole thing down and go for Aluimium!!!! It's a pity!!!!! But  a stitch in time saves nine!!

The color of the roof was changing from black to white!!!!! cheesy cheesy cheesy shocked
I was told it was going to take up to 5years before It will start giving me headache
but I can't wait for that long. I have to do what's right!!!!!!

Let bygones bygones. .  . .

So i removed the old roof and go for "bayge" as the aluminium man called it!!!
Also, i made some little modification and it came out cool!!!!!

I'm doing this for the fun of it all and of course some of the few "you" who wanna see the final destination of my divine house called: "OLUWA CHAMPION"

To all my fans!!!! So sorry for keeping you in the dark for this long. . . .
I've received tons and tons of emails over the last few months from people here on NL
asking me to come back or at least send them picture of my house so far!!!!
This I did for a few and for the others, I promised to be back!!!!!
To avoid argument, I choose to use a personal thread for this!!!!!

So for those of you who love to see the finishing works of Am Alone's house,
I guess this is where we are going to end this grin grin grin grin grin

OWU GIRL, It is obvious you are lying!!!!! Like a NLer will say; Only An Half Brain Person Will Believe "ANYTHING" posted on NL.

It is very obvious even the nicest person on earth are not doing all posted up there(YOUR WISH FOR your OWN CHILD!!!!!)

My argument is if truly you are doing all the above, firstly, you will not call her an Omo-Odo to begin with, Nor call here Su-Egbe(Foolish) Publicly and still set her out to be ridiculed here by everyone worldwide!!!! tongue tongue tongue tongue

Beside, you said she ain't doing any house chore except sweeping here room with a vacuum cleaner!!!

So what is she doing with your shoes in the fridge(you are enslaving her to do all your washing and shoe cleaning I bet!!!!)

Plus she must be cooking her own foods to put the rice cooker inside your Micro Wave!!!!


If you truly doing all the lies you are claiming you wont be here!!!!!!
HAHAHAHAHAHAHAH!!!!! funny young woman
