Not challenging your knowledge, but Abeokuta is sub divided into basement and sedimentary formations, so it was quite early for you conclude for Abeokuta generally.

Places like ; laderin, woke soyinka forest, oke mosan, lukosi, some selected areas of obada, etc. are not recommendable for air compressed rig drill. But it's possible to execute only that the it would be shallow; less than 60meters in most cases and its prone to collapsing of hole except you opt in for case down, which would still result in limited water supply quantity and quality (mud sediment are very likely to be seen time to time, and you would barely get clear water.(and you would expend more in terms of cost), and also the well & storage tanks would need frequent maintenance.
You are right. Each location in Abeokuta has to be addressed in a unique way.
Deep well would probably be the best option in ijeun Titun, which is near to laderin.
I was advised against drilling borehole in laderin. I went for deep well.
Obada alone has different terrain. I did deep well but failed. Had to do boreholes in two different locations.

Sorry about your experiences, with right directives you would have cut a whole lot of cost.
I hope your wells are serving you?

I've been meaning to write it here for a while, the opinion of myself and my screeders is that basecoat putty is better than cement screeding.
Often times, cement screeding tends to crack after some time, it needs to be primed with white emulsion paint to prevent excessive consumption of paint and give white background for a sharper final paint application.
Basecoat is white and doesn't need any extra priming.
Those we have handled application for can attest to these.

I will never advise anyone to use cement or even pop for screeding. Basecoat is the best. After you did the screeding on mine and painted it, the end result was reflecting and as smooth as a mirror.

Noted with thanks. Just one question though...is this basecoat putty good for both internal and external walls, or just for internal walls only?

It can be used for both internal and external. It should dry relatively strong also without dusting, suggesting adequate binder and good bonding to the wall.

I'm also glad you used basecoat knowing you used the best possible matte type over it and knowing you would use something equally good for the internal.

My comment might have been because of the areas i'm familiar with.

Hi guys
I am a benefactor of nairaland information... Long story short, I presently embarking on a building project reason I decided to visit the properties thread.

Please I really don't know where to start from, in reading up info however I intend to start following up with discussions here notwithstanding, what would I learn/gain from the thread a newbie? I mean, j just started building a first house, the peg for foundation just started today.

Elders with expierence, please can u guys put me through perhaps guide me with the pro & con of building (first) new house.
I want to believe there are avoidable mistakes in order not to regret at completion.

I am also open for suppliers of materials (pocket friendly) as well professional advice/services... as much as I can get as long it would be helpful/vital in the ongoing project.

Thank you guys
