Dear all, please I was charged 1.2 million for labour cost of plastering a standard 5 bedroom duplex (excluding supervision fee). Please how much is a reasonable estimate?

I think is much… they did something close to my area for a million

Placing a hot tub on a deck or rooftop can be a mistake due to several reasons. Here are some potential concerns to consider:
Hot tubs can be quite heavy, especially when occupied by people and filled with water. Depending on the size of the hot tub and the weight capacity of your deck or rooftop, its weight has the potential to cause structural damage or even a collapse. Therefore, it's crucial to seek the expertise of a professional to assess your deck or rooftop and ensure that it can safely support the weight of a hot tub before proceeding with the installation.
In addition to weight considerations, hot tubs placed on elevated surfaces such as rooftops or decks can pose several challenges. They can generate water and steam that may potentially cause water damage or leaks to the surrounding structure if the deck or rooftop isn't properly sealed or waterproofed. Installation and maintenance of hot tubs can also be difficult, particularly if navigating stairs or narrow doorways are required. Furthermore, hot tubs on elevated surfaces can be a safety hazard if no guardrails or barriers are in place to prevent falls, which could result in severe injury or even death.
For these reasons, it's important to carefully consider the potential risks and benefits of installing a hot tub on a deck or rooftop. It can be a huge money pit for the homeowner.

Also, I see similar hdf designs doors ranging in price from 80k to 200k. Just curious why the prices are so different if it's all same materials (HDF)

Nice color combination. Do you think curbs should deviate from the traditional black and white?

Thanks for your comment

About painting of curb or Kerbs I can see that there is no strict standardization of colours used on pavements for road safety globally But brighter colour like, white,yellow red, can be used for safety on road.
This lead me to think outside the box 5 year ago in one of our project ( pics attached) by using matching brighter colour for the said project and the client love it,
Ever since then I don’t use black and white regular colour again.

Good evening everyone... Please I need help with this.... I have something similar to this and I want to ask if I should buy a different choke or let the strip light pass through the ceiling and share one choke? Cos electrician is suggesting I get different choke for each box cos passing it through the ceiling consumes more tape light

Police kerbs use three colors: blue, yellow and green and they look good

Army kerbs use two colors: red and black

I found those a refreshing change from the standard black and white

I like this.

I hope others are noticing and will copy.

It need not be white and black all the time

Passing through the ceiling might look somehow to me. It means part of the strip light will be in the ceiling void .and heat might be a negative effect on it. If the areas is under the decking i.e on ground floor you can pass it through the ceiling . But the best practices is to have individual driver .

Thanks

Thanks for sharing with me. I’m actually not here to trade. There are some request that I cannot just overlook especially from those who wouldn’t mind reaching out to me privately. I’m happy to give back without asking for anything I return. That shouldn’t pose any threat! So long people won’t stop asking, I won’t stop sharing knowledge.

The karma thing you mentioned sir is a double edged sword - good and bad. I’ve always prayed that we are all rewarded according to our deed. So, I welcome Mr. Karma wholeheartedly.

To those who are aggrieved on one way or the other, I’m sorry and I’m happy you’re all doing great without issues or challenges in your projects. That’s all that matters!

Best always!

Respect to you Sir... I still recall all your positive inputs you made on my project... If I may, please just settle the issue you have and let things be as they were, if not better... Won't lie, your presence to me is highly missed.. Just resolve it which is long overdue.

I honestly can’t even remember we had an interaction. Thank you for your kind words. You matter!

Your message is well received and noted for action.

Meanwhile, I really love that ceiling design you shared earlier this morning. Nice design complemented by subtle cove lights cool
