Properties / Pumping Machine by cinzo: 10:28pm On Feb 09, 2012
Hi house, please I want to know where one can get a good pumping machine to buy in Lagos. I already bought one last year and right now it can't pump water into the overhead tank.

Kindly drop your opinions.

Thanks

Bros, no vex. I want to buy at Orile because i believe i can get a good bargain there. Since you bought your vitrofied tiles from there, it means you know a vitrified tile. I just want to know how to know a vitrified tile at Orile. Can i just go there and say i want to buy a vitrified tile and they will give me a vitrified tile?.

They might finish you oh. Those guys are out for blood! The guy I bought from is a Nairalander and I met him on this forum. After series of telephone calls to and fro we finally met at the market last week saturday and he was really helpful. Bought everything I needed from him.

Thanks. Never knew there are vitrified tiles at Orile. I bought some tiles there about 3 years ago. Are vitrified tiles made only from a particular country or are there Italian, Spanish or China vitrified tiles?. On a recent trip to India, i saw some fines and good tiles in the hotel that i stayed and when i asked, i was told that they are vitrified tiles. So i have had this impression that vitrified tiles are from India because what i hear in Nigeria is Italian and Spanish granite and marbel tiles and china tiles but never a strong mention of vitrified tiles.



[b]What is vitrified tile

Vitrified tile is a tile which has been processed in such a way that it has very very low porosity (and water absorption) which make it stain resistant and very strong.

Is vitrified tile better than marble or granite?

Vitrified Tiles have far superior properties compared to marble or natural granite because being a manufactured product their quality is controlled whereas in naturally occurring marble and granite good quality is just a coincidence. Vitrified tiles posses much better mechanical strength, scratch resistance, resistance to acids, alkalies and chemicals, resistance to staining etc compared to marble or natural granite.

Marble has a relatively lower abrasion resistance compared to vitrified tiles. It is calcium carbonate which is strongly attached by Hydrochloric acid which is commonly used in toilet & floor cleaning. It yellows over extended time duration whereas vitrified tiles retain their colour for decades.

Polished natural granite shows several surface defects and a good quality is just a matter of chance whereas vitrified tiles are guaranteed for consistent good quality. Marble laying is very cumberrsom and time consuming whereas vitrified tiles may be laid in a matter of hours and put to use after 48 hours.

Excerpts for this article were taken from www.asiangranito.com

What needs to be studied here is the cost factor. Apparently the Vitrified tiles seem to have an advantage and also durability to command a higher price.

But are we willing to shell that extra money for aesthetics and maintenance sake is the million dollar question.

Another point to consider is where people who would like to buy an apartment can actually tell the builder to use these tiles over conventional flooring techniques.[/b]

@amalone,to tell you the truth I don't know how much I have spent! My wife is the one disbursing the money. Mine is to make the money! The POP guy decided to use regular cement instead of white cement.
He is a family friend so he is almost doing it for free. I only bought the materials.
Why we did not wait to plaster was because my wife is rushing the job,she says she wants to move into her new home before easter!
