The best practice and advise is to use only original Solignum endorsed by NIOB.
(The Nigerian Institute of Building)
To get good result DON’T mixed it with any other substances like kerosene, water, black oil etc.

Then use praying apparatus/equipment to do the application, this will safe you a lot.

With this,4 gallons will be enough for the job.
I usually undergo same procedure in most of my projects
thanks alot

Your mix ratio is 1:5 and its OK......

the cracks could be as a result of impurities in the sand - OR the workmen not allowing it dry a bit before rubbing it......

for better result, you can 'filter' the sand, so dirt are removed...

mixing ratio includes:
1:3, 1:4, 1:5 or 1:6 - 1:8

I suspect your cracks is workmen error
thanks

They charge from N500 upward depending on the volume and location. It could also depend on the material type they want to use. Some mix extra pva for stronger bond and use high cement mix.
I know a competent screeded that relocated to Kaduna. I could get you his contact if you wish.
pls do

I thought it was cement screeded at first glance.
Since it's water pooling and being absorbed by the wall that most likely caused the cracks, you may paint the skirting with water resistant paint so that it's flows off the wall.
hello gbadexy, pls how expensive is internal screeding? in terms of materials and labour, the total square meter of the house is 220sqm and a height of 3meters. am based in kaduna and will be grateful if you give me an idea thanks

This life is so euphemiral though full of twist and turns.
Firstly, I do appreciate all your concerted advices as well as the insults, I must admit no man is an island of knowledge.
I traveled and the DNA test was done, I was especting a quick result like 2hrs but the doctor told us it will take 5days to a week before the result will be out.
I'm in deeper mess, I saw my daughter today for the first time and no doubt she's mine but I will come back to that later as what happened today between I and my ex is I don't know.
When I first saw her, the rage in her is shocking as I've never see her in that mood before as I was so scared to move closer to her and when I do I received barrage of slaps and beatings, she cried profusely and strange enough my parents were just looking at us as I was left to calm her down on my own.
The situation took a twist when we reach home as the way she and my parents were doing look strange, just like the old days when she was younger, the gists and the friendship and despite trying to avoid her, we ran into each other twice and it wasn't funny as she can't look straight into my eyes, she was breathing heavily as the closeness is just too much believe me I don't know how we got kissing in the first place, thank God for my mum footsteps and the second was in her car when she was about leaving, we had a lengthy discussion where she told me she know I will be back and that she only marry her husband just to despise me, she also told me they have been living a separate life for over 3years after a physical attack by the husband after he won't pay back the money she loaned him to support his business.
Again, I can't explain how we end up kissing passionately again and all this is known to my dad as he told me he's being watching us especially what he saw us doing in her car.
I'm 37years of age and this thing? It's getting too much for me to handle.
My daughter is just like my mirror, the way we quickly bond together is amazing, she was so free with me and my parents and I kissing my ex twice? God help me.
you are just an attention seeker, fake story. the gist now is your ex is separated from her husband, but go through your comment before you claimed she called you at an odd hour and then she told you not to worry about her husband she can call you anytime. you need help.

you just saw her as a safety net, someone who will always be available for you. you had no plans of commitment with her and her level of education will always be an issue for you. you are just sad she found someone that loved her enough to marry her. when you left for Nysc you did not communicate till you saw her wedding pictures, you then saw the baby pictures and all of a sudden you realised the date you had sex and you want to be a father.you have never loved that girl so dont destroy her marriage. she even asked you of your plans for her before you left for service and your response ''am going for service'' that girl dodged a bullet leave her alone

I created a new moniker just to conceal my identity as I'm very frequent on travel and Autos sections.
I'm worried and I need advice on the next step to take.
I dated my ex right from our secondary school days, I was in JS3 while she was in JS2 and our relationship span till I finished my studies in university level though she couldn't proceed to the Uni as she insisted on doing business, she was so successful in her business that she built her own house before she attain the age of 26 albeit in my name(This I found out later while using her laptop as she later admit to it)
Things were moving good and steady between us, my parents and siblings know her as she often came over to my parents house, I met with his father once and the respect was mutual.
All this while, we never engage in sex until my third year in Uni, she's who she said she is, A virgin as I disflowered her then but things went side ways between us when I was elected as the president of one of the associations in school, she created this sense of imaginary rivals in every ladies she saw with me despite assuring her I'm not cheating on her.
In the year 2014,she became pregnant while I was in 400level though I told her I'm not ready for pregnancy as my head was full with so many things then, my CGPA dropped, having issues with my mother as everything was just not positive at that moment as I need to clear my head and pregnancy issue is just not what I need.Well, she told me she will keep it and take care of all the bills involved but I kept a distance from her and virtually from everyone back then.
My Dad eventually found out and he called and assured her of his support but she had a miscarriage when she was 7months into it, believe me as I was totally devastated when she called me around 1am to tell me as I and my Dad supported her in every ways possible, I stayed with her for 2weeks before I traveled back home(we lived in different state)
2months before I went for my service year, we had an unprotected sex and it was so emotional that I know there's more to it but I couldn't just concentrate when she asked me if I'm ready for marriage, I simply told her "I'm going for my service, I will be back for you" I never knew she read a lot of meanings to my statement.
I have one crazy idea of writing down the dates if I have sex with ladies(This I learnt from my Dad) during my service year, I lost contact with her as all efforts to trace her wasn't forthcoming but I received the shocker of my life when her sister posted her wedding pictures on Instagram( I haven't meet her as she too don't know how I look like as I don't do pictures, I have a phobia for taking shots with camera but we do communicate on phone)
The following month, another pictures on FB aibelt a new account by my ex thanking God for safe delivery of her baby girl,i quickly contacted her and we exchanged contacts but I asked her why the sudden development, her response was shocking, she told me "She can't wait for me as she's not educated but I'm, that I'm ladies man and she can't do rivals".
2years pass and I stumble on the baby girl pictures on FB and the resemblance is just out of the world, I quickly checked my diary and it correspond with the month she was born as in the date we had sex to her month of delivery, I contacted her to verify but she kept mute but on our consecutive discussions she always plead with me not to speak about it, she never deny nor agree to it.
I screenshots the pictures of the baby girl to my sister as I plan to travel down south to do DNA and if possible take responsibility of her but she told me to let her be that the right thing will be done at the right time by my ex.
Lately, I have being having a series of dreams as I keep seeing the girl trying to extend her hands to me but there's this barrier between us.
I called my ex yesterday to plead to her to tell me if I'm the father of the girl but she still repeat the same thing, pleading to me to let her go and not to talk about the girl, she even told me the girl is what keep her going emotionally everytime she think about me.
She's 5years now and everytime I see her pictures on FB or Instagram I always see myself in her.
Should I let her be without playing my role in her life or should I act with force to reclaim her?
Advice and Insults are allow.
you are just acting up because she got married. you kept her as your safety net and had no plans for her. you just want to use the baby to blackmail her and make her life miserable. you left for your youth service you did not communicate with her and all of a sudden you saw her wedding pictures and a baby then you remembered the date you had sex and want to claim your child. bros move on and allow her to enjoy her marriage.

Spyder880 well done good job always. Please I need you to share the secret behind your wall plastering. I have never seen any crack on your plastering job in the last nine years, I have been watching your display on this forum. Is it the quality of sand, cement mixture, or quality of workers or any tricks behind the outcomes? You always amaze me with your sincerity, quality of job you deliver at stipulating time. I like to used this opportunity to advise you to encourage you guys to clean up as work progress not until job is complete, its makes the environment heath for them. I hope other contractors will be encouraged to practice same.
that's true, and pls can too much cement in the mix cause plaster cracks. I plastered a property with 1 bag of cement and 2.5 wheel Barrow of sand and there were plaster cracks all over.
Properties / Re: General Topic Thread-To Discuss Anything And Everything in Building Construction by fabulous85: 7:55pm On May 02, 2020
hello guys, please what is the best mix ratio for wall rendering (plastering of a house). can too much cement in the mix ratio cause a rendered wall to crack (plaster cracks) due to expansion and contraction over time. I read that the rendering mix should be less rich than the rendered wall ( considering I always use high quality blocks).so is a mix ratio of 1bag of cement to 2.5 wheel Barrow of sand too rich? I noticed there were plaster cracks on one of my buildings after using this mix. pls I need ur response thanks.

You can reapply the termite treatment after the roofing. A carpenter can climb the roof void and use a spraying can method to spray the mixture directly on the wood. I have also seen someone using brush to apply the mixture on roofing wood.

hello spyder, nice job you are doing. pls I want to ask the implication of a treated wood been exposed to rain before putting the roofing sheet. due to the pandemic and lockdown i have been unable to get roofing sheets. do I need to apply anti termite again on the wood after eventually roofing? because the rain has washed the previous one? if yes how do I go about it since it will be hard to climb and apply to some areas of the wood. thanks

You're not serious, it seems you don't have any plans to stay with your husband. An opportunity for relocation in your place of work came 4 months ago and you have been married to your husband 4years. You didn't deem it fit to request you get relocated to the same state your husband lives.
P
Btw you worked in a bank for 9yrs as a bank teller, is there no room for career growth in your bank or you refused to acquire new skills?
Some women just want to get married and answer Mrs but keep living the single life 'freedom to do as they please' visit Male friends etc. why will a woman that claims to love a man and get married to him resent living with him. the OP is showing every traits of a cheat. that is if she has not started cheating on her husband already

Cost of each windows varies and no exact figure because measurements were taken on site which was used in getting the quantity of the materials needed to get these windows done,so can be a bit hard stating per window.

The protector has a Y16MM rod all thru and from my view I think each will cost roughly 60-80k if not far more.
As far as I know one of the current most expensive aluminum is nigalex.
