What's the daily rate for masons and laborers in Lagos/Ogun state at the moment.

Do they also charge higher when working on story buildings(1story to be precise)

Penuelseun:
search Google for the manual with the model number

None found

Does anyone here have this type of inverter. Asides the power bottom, I don't understand the function of the other bottons and the installer didn't leave a manual either. Will appreciate any explanation on what the other bottons do. Thanks.

Also which is the best battery to buy for naija at the moment. Need 2 x 200ah batteries

The open space with stones, how do you intend to control grass growing there. Thanks

I need education on covering material for my new carport.

The top criteria is lightweight followed by longevity.

The leading candidates are danpalon and tarpaulin.

Would like to hear your thoughts.

Do stocks price on ngx react to earning forecast?. For instance, if the earning forecast for Zenith bank for Q1 2022 is below than Q1 2021 pat

Biafran4life:
This market can be irrational. Pz declared #.25 @#7.00 and APR declared #.50 @#7 plus and is receiving bashing.That means Apr tried oh

I think the fact that PZ is back to profitability, that might be helping them at this time

EgunMogaji2:
I asked the question some years back

Did you still follow the traditional way of wall tiling in your build sir?

I noticed the norm is for bricklayers to plaster walls giving it a rough surface before tiling is done.

Tilers also put a mixture of cement and sand on the same wall to serve as adhesive for the tiles which is expected.

Can't wall tiles be done on blocks without first plastering them.

@robobo, rabbi, bbm. Should a rejection be expected for the ASI if it ever nears 52k in this upward trajectory?. Thanks

ArcToyin:
It has to do with age truly. A 60 year old man singlehandedly did wardrobe of 4 rooms and 4 kitchen cabinets using plywood and some woods for me 3 years ago.

Can you share pictures of the wardrobe and kitchen cabinet he made for you?. Thanks.

Also how much does the block moulder you said you know moulds 6" block.

Has anyone received the bonus issue from Stanbic or Redstar?

uncleteeh:
Let the drafter determine that, so easy using AutoCAD.
If this is a proposed site for you, how do you plan to set it out.
Quogent measurements are missing.

It is not proposed. Actually using it to determine the area quoted by the tiler for the entire building. We got an extra space after this land

He quoted 385sqm to tile this Floor plan, half tile to window level for the kitchens, visitor's toilet and full tiling for the bathrooms

[quote author=luthorcorp post=110135348][/quote]Thank you

Abeg how many square meter is this building area on this land

Dileem:
I have received payment for champion breweries

Did you complete the take over form?

ArcToyin:
I have one that stays in Ota.

I'll reach out to you soon

twinskenny:
allumninium PVC I think.. cause of water and cost too

Aluminum PVC actually cost more than some wooden doors.

For visitors toilets with doors on the balcony not ensuite, what will be your preference for the door type. wooden door or aluminum PVC door.

BrickDevo:
Location?

OTA behind Obasanjo farm

Does anyone have contact of people who mould blocks on site.

ArcToyin:
Where is your site there?

Eleidi. Don't have an exact description

whirlwind7:
That was from ọmọ onílè.
After they demand money for decking, they will come back when you're about to roof the building, for roofing levy.
Didn't you pay them foundation levy before?

Paid all of that with receipt sef. I am expecting them at the roofing stage but we're not even there yet. Not one block has been erected on the decking yet. But this notice came with local govt logo and all, Omo onile don't do formal writings as such.

That's why Port Harcourt is better in a way. once you pay for family receipt and the local govt levy, whatever you do after then is no one's business

ArcToyin:
Holy Crown a property agent? I think I know him.

Yes o. He even won a position as PRO for the association recently sef. His office is opposite Obasanjos farm

henrymor:
Hi experts,

Thanks for your previous advice. It has helped me reach the present stage my house is.

Please, I need advice again. I want to do a granite top for my kitchen. Please, what's your advice? I need your financial advice and any other advice that can help me.

Thanks!

Is it a granite top or marble tiles top?

KolaShangOne:
As at last year, they don't.

Did you do your building approval? If you did, you have no problems.

Not yet but working on it

mufutau55:
I built one there but few years ago at Isorosi Town still in Ado-Odo LGA. I never see any single Local Govt person on my project o. Never paid such money but only to Omo-Onile that I paid N200k for decking.
But my buildings are also kobo-kobo project o.

I am sure you have your Building Approval? If not, you need one to stop any idiots coming to your project.

Hajji M.

Still working on the approval sir. Will definitely get it done.

Hajivince:
Please I need a sure plug for Cement to Iju Atan Ota for 200Bags...

Holy crown (zero 8 zero three two five one 63 five five) helped to source 300bags. He also supervises my build in my absence behind Obasanjo farm. You can reach out to him

Mr okenwa mentioned scredding will fix the cracks. I saw this scredded wall and the plastering crack is still very visible.

I appreciate all the opinions given.

For those building in Ado -odo otta, does the local govt collect any money for decking. A notice was placed on my build asking me to pay 100k for the decking

uncleteeh:
Was the plastering done by great minds?
Smoothness isn't here.

I will assume the other workers he used did this part cos he isn't a rookie

GAZZUZZ:
For your safety, pls install the proper bushings , they tend to last several years .

Thank you

MrOkenwa:
Likely due to the mix ratio. The defect is more of cosmetic, screed will get rid of it. Add more sharp sand to the plastering sand mix.
I have very little knowledge, wait for responses from professionals.

I had no plan to screed the walls initially. What other options to cover those cracks. We will use your cue for plastering the upstairs

Charisdesigns:
A picture of the said crack will help give a more accurate answer

But here’s what I shared awhile ago on similar case

Possible Causes:
1) Foundation
"is the foundation done properly or better still if the right foundation type was used."

2) Ineffective bonding between the blocks and mortar

3) Plastering mix ratio

Remedy

Get a structural engineer to help you determine if the crack is a major or minor one.
If the latter is the case, before plastering, he should re add mortar to those crack lines in other to create a better bond between the mortar and block wall

Then nail chicken nets to that area before plastering as shown in the attached picture

It might likely be 2 & 3 one you said. I have attached the pictures. Foundation was done well and we found more places sef
