Please can someone recommend the best floor drain I can use in my bathrooms. I wanted to buy the stainless rectangular type that opens and closes when water enters but the Tiler said the plastic one is better (even though cheaper). Need advice from here please.
Tiler was saying once the spring in the stainless oke spoils, it's a problem.

Good evening house, I saw this type of soakway today. I was told it is the latest in town.
How reliable is this and won't it collapse later in future?

It's the normal practice for people with some dispute to reach out to members offline to try and explain their one sided explanation so as to recruit sympathizers.
I have a fair share of such communications too of such people trying to change the narrative to different regular participants offline where they feel their claims can't face scrutiny.
I don't want to mention names so as not to drag issue that isn't of direct concern to me and not to derail the thread but I know my message has been passed.
I appreciate your concern sir.

You can use a pop-up floor drain, it's nice there is also a linear floor drain as well.

If you ask me the inlaw isnt a greedy one. If u like give your project to a Daddy GO they will still make something out of it. You think anybody want to waste their time handling a project without even making a dime? The problematic project manager is the one that will tell you the measurement was 800 square meter. I see things like this and most times i look the other way as long as the figure isnt crazy.

What if he has been helping that inlaw in one way or the other before now? Will he still be justified to inflate a 550sqm roof to 800sqm? I recently helped my inlaws to open borehole, among other things. So tomorrow, if i send one of them to get something for me, he will inflate the price because "nobody wants to waste his time handling a project without making a dime"? We shouldn't be normalizing these kind of things.

He inflated from 550 to 600 and i mean his not greedy. My friend did his borehole this year for 1.2M in Ajah, what will you call that? What am saying is this things happens far more than it doent especially when you dont live in the country. You just have to pay that diaspora fee.

Never mind this not latest anywhere is not new thing and is done out of cost economizing.
It usually construct with cast ring.

Common around sango,Abk and Ibadan.
Those brown land area

Though is very cheap compare to other sewage system.

But serviceability is not really okay.

Omoh, I shook my head at what you quoted here, I mean how do you justify this kind of behaviour? I hope you know the in-laws offence is punishable by law, extortion by trick. He is nothing but a thief and there's no two ways about it cry

Good morning house. My plumber is done with entire outdoor plumbing and we have 7 (4 inches pipes) left.

He says I should keep it but I insist he takes them and I deduct the money from his balance since he bought the pipes and should know how many would do the job.. 7 is a lot of excess for a 4,000 naira or thereabout pipe per unit.

Am I supposed to keep them or am I right by saying he should take them and I deduct his balance ?


His point is I will build another house hence I should keep it, I said he will collect another job so he should take it and use. Lol

He can take it and agree on money deduction. Keeping it might lead to wastage because weather may affect the pipe when you keep them under the sun for years ..
