Hello house.

Please, for a treated borehole sending water with some particles of sand from the reserved tank to the main tank, what can be done to eliminate sand from getting to the main tank?

To the few plumbers we have on this thread and to the knowledgeable ones here.

Thank you.

Is the tank surface or underground tank?

Option 1 Surface Ground tank
If it is surface tank, you need regular cleaning of the tank because the purpose of the reservoir is to allow water to settle before transferring it to overhead water tank. There will be some particles after treating the water. Also, you need to introduce filter as well.

Option 2 Underground Tank
If it is underground water tank you should have less particle of sand. You need to leave like 300mm (i.e minimum of one foot) between the pipe taking the water to overhead tank and the base of the underground tank. Also, make sure your plumber fix foot valve the water taking water to overhead. Regular washing is also required.

story. 700ml for a kilometer of road. Is the road the path to heaven
bro are we talking about a standard highway here or just some cul de sec or estate street because the loading and traffic the pavement will encounter is taken into design, then if it requires a bridge that will drive the cost further so yes 700m or even more than that. Whenever you drive pass the badagry express way and wonder what the Engineers are doing that long and haven't completed construction, road construction looks easy on th eye but the cut and fill involve alone , let's not talk about survey recognaissance and test. Don't get me started abeg or the Engineers will take 10m from you and call it a day right grin

dey there dey play bro, go make inquiries on catapilar and backhole rent rate per hour. Just pray the construction doesn't involve much dredging, machines alone and expetize 300m done go or you think this is building where Engineers are negotiated? grin grin even as big as most indigenous companies are no one trusts then to do their road, not the federal government. The least they can go is the Chinese.

Please I got this quote from my cabinet person. Can expert's in the house help me peruse it. It looks high to me o. This is for ONLY Kitchen.

Do not use MDF for the cabinet carcass, rather use HDF for the carcass and mdf for the doors if you want to save cost.

If you can share the design and size of the kitchen, I can give you a guide.



Goodluck..

Good Morning All,

Can you please assist me to know if the height of this Roofing work can be reduced ?

I need enough spacing to be available for a window on the wall of the Duplex behind ,

The carpenter went ahead to make it higher after we already concluded for a shorter height.

The reason he gives is due to rain downpour.

I am about telling him to reduce it because the number and budget of stoan coated roofing tiles have increased.

Thanks and Regards

Of Course sir, it can be reduced by a bit.

Let's handle your interior Pop design sir.

So i noticed my screeder first of all used black Cement to do a first layer of screeding, then did a second layer with the white one. I'm only familiar with that white one, is this a new method these days? Or is it because of dampness to make it more durable?

He did great Job for you. Extra durable✓ Usually black Screeding is more durable against dampness than the regular white screeding.

It's okay✓

Mind you, He quoted MDF board for you!!!
If funds is not an issue, go for HDF setup. the quotation would definitely increase, if you decide to go for HDF.

I don't recommend MDF board for Kitchen setup...

Thank you Topsy23, they are both surface tanks (Main and reserve).

We are getting a filter to handle the sand aspect.

Quarterly washing (Both reserve and main) has now been activated.

The questions I wanted to ask, is the borehole new? Like less than 6 months? Have they been actively using it?
