FEGEITOK:
Pictures would help.

But let me see if I can make sense of your post.

Is the mold on the concrete floor?

Is the mold on the wall?

Is the mold on both?

FEGEITOK:
This concrete is too strong!

I even use reinforcement (TMT) for the concrete floors which the laborers said is a very rare event.

michlins:
when doing a tank stand,I ensure I place it at a place where the over fill will not disturb the owners or their neighbours. If your neighbour tank spills water into your own house (compound) even. You can ask him to remove the tank stand because his convenience should not inconvenient others

michlins:
honestly there's no way I can answer this question because I don't know what you agreed upon. If he did a separate foundation casting for the tank stand,he will by default be the one that will install as he doesn't have a choice. But if it happens that he did it on ground,both of you will have to find a common ground if you didn't tell him prior that he will have to install

Cc: A building with a not so high DPC ?

Good morning house,
Questions: . I read that if the outside floor is higher or at the same level with the dpc it can cause capillary action.

Yes it can leads to dampness 💯

From your question it shows that the height of your foundation is lower. And the person handling your landscaping might want to flows out the water in compound.

Biztech05:
No standard height!


At thumb rule it’s best to work with highest foundation in your locality, either as the same or A course more! Best is to make it a course more.

Olumighty123:
I don't know what your screeder is trying to do but I know L n B is used in measuring SqM, For example, if the room is 4 metres wide, and 6 metres long, 4 x 6 = 24 square metres, that's all.

Akerewe:
Explain how d money was spent, is it with blocks settings or with concrete walls?

ChiefSupplier55:
Please i dont understand what you mean ?

ChiefSupplier55:

sonnie10:
Are you sure?

FEGEITOK:
I am sorry that he did that to you.

This is why I educate myself on anything and everything that I contract someone to do for me. And engage the vendor to find out how solid he is in what he claims to be an expert in. No insult to you, Sir.

Even though it is said that there are areas that are so dry that one does not need DPM, I don't buy that.

I feel that to be on the safe side, please and please install all possible countermeasures.

Is this house a multi-floor building or a bungalow?

Rany4all:
But even when the concrete is continuous, if a DPM (nylon) isn't placed underneath, the continuous concrete alone may not be enough to prevent capillary action na.

A 5 K.V.A inverter plugged to 2 12V, 200Amps batteries powered by 8 320watts solar panels and you won't ask this question again.

Even petrol for generator wont matter

So my powe supply is permanent

Gud morning, this is the nigalex material I used 2 years ago for a client here, it's the best of the best I say, but it cost oooo, thanks u

MrOkenwa:
I used 16mm in some of the septic tanks that I did in the past because the spaces also serve as car park. Not sure of the exact quantities of the materials because they were side jobs while the main buildings were being built. Buy your materials yourself and pls don’t suggest lesser materials. A poorly built septic tank/soak away is a disaster waiting to happen.

qwertyboss:
If no be truck and lorry you want parks Y12 is okay

sonnie10:
