Hello everyone,

I have a question please.

How much should be budgeted to get a land and build 2/3 bedroom bungalow in Ogun or Oyo or outskirts of Lagos?

Stories from the trenches.

I bought a ton of MDF to do woodwork.

Now the air in the office stings the eyes and the nose so I researched why this is happening.

It's the adhesive! Our markets are full of the cheap chinese adhesive!

Don't go cheap on adhesives, it's a matter of life and health.

This article explains why.

My workers even got sick, so sick that they had to stop work and vomited for hours until they were provided medical attention.

I now have no choice but to install extractor fans to ensure the air in the office is safe for humans

The amount of research one has to do because this country is flooded with cheap and dangerous s**t ehn. Every last thing has the original China, fake China, original original, fake original, Tokunbo original, naija refurb original, mixed original. And 90% of the time, you can only learn this by experience. Because these are effing gray Market shenanigans

You are so correct.

I read up some more on why this is no joke

I have used super glue before but the quantities being used for MDF paneling makes it become necessary to take extra precautions.

So to all my wood working friends on this forum, it is not just about the money, make the money but preserve your health.

It's OK for internal (rooms) doors, but don't use it for toilet/bathroom doors.

It's cool for internal doors.

If I may ask, how much did you get it and location?
Re: General Topic Thread-To Discuss Anything And Everything in Building Construction by Twostep: 1:28pm On Oct 04, 2022
55-60k with everything aside lock and keys

Good afternoon my oga’s in the house.

Kindly help vet this quotation for external screeding (duplex) and internal and external paint work. Thank you for always!
The total sqm would determine the cost of the screeding.
As regards the paints, the cost is fair for what you would get for some known brands but I could definitely give you for less.
It doesn't sound like the place is more than a 3 bedroom bungalow... I assume the fence is included in the external paint. In any case, the ratio of the external to the internal is off. Even if satin covers very high and can complete it, the ceilings paint is not sufficient for an upstairs duplex.
If the painter promise to complete the whole job without requesting for extra, it's a good deal..

But why is it not suitable for bathrooms? Plus which types of doors would you suggest to be used for the bathrooms?

Water splash mostly affects wooden door.
Aluminum door is okay for bathroom.

Frequent exposure to water can cause the wood to rot within a relatively short time, however if your bath area is screened off properly, like within a shower cubicle for instance, then it can be used.

The door may also be sprayed with some sort of plastic paint to make it more resistant to water, hence prolonging its life span.

If your bath area isn't screened, you may opt for more water resistant options like aluminum or PVC (plastic) doors.
