Celepope:
Thanks very much for your explanation. How I wish I can get an average price range of it against PoP for per square meter, I will be most grateful. Because I know it will surely be more expensive. I love how neat and simple they’re.

Yes “terms and conditions apply”
Such as
-The nature of the soil/ land
-Duration of the project
-Payment plan

Pls my geepee tank is leaking, I called a plumber to fix it few weeks, I am not sure what he used in sealing it but it was fine until a few days ago, the leakage now is even more than before, There is a possibility it might be leaking from more than one spot, Is there anyone here that can come help me with this?, I am in Lagos, around Baruwa, ipaja rd, thanks for all your help and answers in advance 🙏

Tendency of cement screeding after some years.
I understand some still like it but it's my duty to enlighten clients on the possibility especially if necessary additional binder wasn't sufficiently added and what step to take just to be on a safer side.
Anyone meticulous about appearance would have to rescreed and repaint.
I was just discussing with a nairalander and he said the satin used in his previous build shows the wall when stain is cleaned with cloth and water. I told him I was going to post that on nairaland to enlighten those that may not be aware and think that is normal that satin should wash off with cleaning.
Regal paint matte emulsion doesn't even wash off with cleaning. Be sure of what you are getting especially if coat is unreasonably low compared to any good similar products.

A million thanks to you Gbadexy for the constant enlightenment on the topic of wall finishing.
The binder you mentioned, is it what screeders call screeding gum? Secondly, what mixing ratio would you recommend of the various constituents of screeding, assuming a 100sqm internal wall using POP cement?

Weldone sir, I have forwarded our conversation to my client about the external paint to be used in a waterlogged and salty area.. Thanks for detailed information

Good morning everyone. I am hoping to get an idea of how much it would cost to fence standard 3 plots of land in Lagos.
Thanks

Hello,
Whats the Location or Soil type.

Ciao

Dijita:
I believe it is sand. It is around Dangote area. I don't think the soil type will be necessarily be relevant as the foundation of the fence had been done with one or two blocks on top

Dijita:
Thank you.
Is it possible to break it down as to number of blocks, cement labor etc. There is no iron beyond the level of the don't think their is iron the level of the set blocks. which is one in some places and two in others

Good evening
Please what's the estimate of doing an high foundation 6 blocks to the ground because of the road as advised by the Engr for a storey building wih 4 flats of 2 bedroom ensuiite and land measuring 50 by 100 ft

VanuatuWycombe:
It’s most likely gypsum drywall board that was used. It’s better than POP because it’s well hung and there’s high level of neatness and precious their, if your installer is experienced and has the right tools.

It may be a bit expensive than normal POP. You can use dry hardwood, instead of those steel/metal, for those anchors.

One downside of it is that: it is flammable. A fiber cement board would be better for such job but using fiber cement board will increase your cost.

hamtabfawaz:
The bolded is a topic, we've dealt with on this platform on several occasion!


Yes the gypsum board is easy & clean installation, But it's never better than POP ✓

Skydivine:
What is the purpose of this wood here in an area that is supposed to be completely free from combustible material?
Some aesthetics are not worth it sometimes.

VanuatuWycombe:
In my opinion, it is better. Most of materials used for PoP are either fake or substandard. Many installers too cut corners and they don’t know what they are doing.
PoP in my house came down completely one day before I got home that year in 2014.

They are not properly hanged, even if they are nailed to a concrete ceiling. They will still come down, with time.

I am 100% certain that gypsum board can outlive PoP.

I am not out to spoil market for any PoP installer here or elsewhere o. I am stating known facts. They are heavier than boards and that’s why it is not safe to be underneath them and feel relaxed. They are like timed-bomb.

Another way to reduce their risk of falling down is to use a higher percentage of boards for the profiling than than normal PoP cement materials.

racerve:
Someone that wanted to bill me 700k for installation only. With that kind of confidence you'd think he'd know better.
