redgem:I didn’t use black cement completely on the project I did… a mixture of black cement and white cement.. this is done to avoid paint peeling off in the nearest future… Buy white cement and do the mixture for a super neat job |

bolu1986: Thanks so much for the response... Please did you use white cement with pop screeding paint and bond or please can I get the list of materials to buy? |

redgem: What’s the total sqm? I should have a little idea. |
Re: General Topic Thread-To Discuss Anything And Everything in Building Construction by bolu1986(m): 10:16pm On Apr 01, 2023 |
redgem: Look for good paint like Gloval… Plastering normally determines the number of materials sometime.. if you plastering is not smooth you will spend more on materials to achieve smooth surface… so I can’t really know the actual quantity they will be needed! You can liase with your screeder |

redgem: Good Morning, am sorry just seeing this. In my humble opinion, I think the light points is too much, instead of 3watts, you can settle for 6watts and reduce the lights points to a total of 10 or even less, 6watts are actually brighter, in the course of maintenance perhaps in a few years, when some spotlights would need to be changed, while some electrician can perfectly change it without tampering with pop, some can't. have had to cover some holes made on pop by an electrician after he changed the damaged spotlights for a client, which attracts an extra charge fee. (the more holes, the charge). Another consideration is if you're using prepaid, it's too much. But in the End, it's just your decision on how you want it. |

Good morning everyone please I need advice on the type of wood for roofing. The carpenter recommended melina or Ofu wood that they are good and termite resistant as the area is red sanded and termite prone and we will also Treat with soligmun and gamalin and kerosene. The only challenge is he says Ofu doesn't seem to be readily available in this area as they might want us to pay and come back in like 2 weeks which he doesn't really support. So he's suggesting Melina all through. I read somewhere here that melina is good for noggings. So my questions are. 1.Is it okay to use melina for all the roofing woods. 2. Its slate we are going to use for the roof will the melina be good for the extra weight of asbestos slate if we eventually do melina through. 3. Location is Lagos, Agbara axis. Though we still intend to ask around more at pakos around but please your opinions are highly appreciated. Thank you. |

bolu1986: I know you won't be perfect with telling the amount of materials since you've not physically seen the building and done measurements...I just want an estimate to guide me through and the best mixture so I can guide them to avoid getting cracks and peels... |

I was arguing with the pop guy cos of the measurements he gave me.... I told him why is it more than the total sqm of the building and he said cos they multiply the total sqm of the building with the height of the building... Please how true is this? |

redgem: Good morning madam. Please how much are they charging you for external screeding per sq metre? Professionals in the house, what is the usual rate per square metre (labour only) for external wall screeding? Thanks for your response |
Re: General Topic Thread-To Discuss Anything And Everything in Building Construction by Olumighty123(m): 10:56am On Apr 02, 2023 |
redgem: Yes, it's the multiplication of length and breadth of a particular space. So, he is right. |

redgem: Thank you very much. I was told between 700 and 1k per sq metre when I made enquiries in February this year. This information will allow me to bargain for some small reduction in price. |

bolu1986: Its not easy looking for professional artisans (cos they all claim to be professionals)... I always look at distance...would have loved to patronize some artisans here (seen the quality of their work) but I don't think I should be selfish or penny foolish...and It's not a big project for me (it is kobo kobo project) to be dragging people all the way from other state down to Benin, I have done it twice and it wasn't favorable to I and the artisans.. |
Re: General Topic Thread-To Discuss Anything And Everything in Building Construction by Amosaloud(m): 1:23pm On Apr 02, 2023 |
bolu1986: I think the experienced artisan should rather decline the job than give a bad demonstration of their workmanship. Better to walk away. Everyone will eventually find their level. 1 Like |
