edmasta01:Don’t let anybody föól you; there is no tile that doesn’t slip when wet ( especially with mild or heavy soap on the floor or at your feet. It’s either you use your preferred tiles there and put bathroom foot-mat that is coarse and grips your feet or you go traditional baby plastering it neatly and making it sloppy and roughening it with broom. A lot of home occupiers/owners have gone dîśable or dëâd, due to this śîllÿ mistàkè being made in bathroom design. Even in mosques, people rushing to join prayer have slipped and have either kpâièd or broken a part of their bodies due to slippery floors. We just lôst a friend in Benin City who worked with FAAN, due to this same issue. Please don’t joke with your life/safety of yourself and that if your family. You can do other areas of your house ‘TO TASTE’. Only you and your family use your bathroom and other people don’t get to see it often. The one for visitors’ room too should not be neglected. My friend’s dad kpàîèd from a hospital’s toilet due to slippery floor. This was someone that was already well and would have been discharged that same day he ‘daid’ |

Cold141114:But cost of plastering nko? Using tile gums and grouting of tiles with original grout can prevent water from penetrating an ún-plastered walls. Because most of Nigerians are poôr and they are used to building low-budget, poor quality houses from generations to generations, that’s why they feel using cement for tiling cannot be compromised. Tiles stay on fiber cements. Tiles stay on gypsum boards. Even on walls coated with (rubber-like) water membranes, tiles stay on them - all, using tile gum. Let us all endeavor to do it the standard way Oyibos do it because we learned it from them. Our own invented way of building is mud house. That’s why we fall in love with the level of accuracy, durability, precision etc in Oyibo houses. Let us be buying industrial grade materials. They will safe us lots of money in maintenance than using our own improvised way of cutting cost when building. If one can’t afford quality (not big) house now, keep buying quality materials and be keeping till one is able to do. standard building. I see a lot of houses in Nigeria that are lesser than 2 years and they are either going through one repair or maintenance. |

VanuatuWycombe:Did you even know that most Goodwill tiles soaks water even after being laid on the wall and floors.... Did you even know some grouting materials made in nigeria also soak water? Why? Because adding plaster sands with cement does not prevent water, it only hold the tile to the wall and the surface of the tiles is only the ceramic preventing water...... If enough water is being used then you will see the traces of the tiles absorbing the water from the surface There are many poorly produced Tiles or let me say the tile is low quality and can't withstand steadily water usage You don see some tiles peel on the surfaces from excess foots matching it? Yesterday was an experience of one too A carpenter standing as supervisor wants me to use 1 and half bag of cement(MANGAL) to lay 18sqm of wall because he wants to manage for the said engineer that's not around currently I did and bid him farewell...... See picture of the work here

Cold141114:Yes. I know. Lots of substandard materials out there. That’s why I am very choosy when procuring. I chose tested and tested materials for finishing. That’s why I am an advocate of quality things. It’s good we don’t do it at all, if we can’t afford it. We have been brainwashèd in Nigeria to be a landlord by force. So people start building nonsensè, all the name of: WE HAVE MOVED TO OUR SITE. The properties I built for sale here are great testimonies of what I always talk about qualities here. When a buyer sent his engineer to come and check them ahead, the engineer said: OGA, THIS HOUSES ARE BUILT BETTER THAN THE ONES WE BUILD FOR YOU O. The buyer said: HAA. IT MEANS YIU HAVE BEEN BUILDING RÛBBISH FOR ME SINCE. After ending the call, the engineer said he’s trouble for saying such thing. There’s nobody that got to the property and won’t say we really really tried. |

VanuatuWycombe:I will be happy if i can find an engineer that can follow an examples duely..... Not just bringing up ideas that's not tested or trusted...... |

VanuatuWycombe:You are most likely over exaggerating. Please calm down. That engineer that demarkets himself to his boss is from which country? |

| Re: General Topic Thread-To Discuss Anything And Everything in Building Construction by VanuatuWycombe: 5:20pm On May 11, 2025 |
bixton:I swear to God. I am not even exaggerating. The engineer is a Nigerian that has been building for years. It may not mean he doesn’t know what he is doing as an engineer. It may mean he was building to the standard his client wanted. What even led to him saying that was when the buyer was trying to price down the properties because he didn’t see them. I guess that was why his engineer said what he said. Right from building the first block, we have maintained the quality. Three senior masonry workers left the job because we insisted they dismantled anything laid that didn’t conform to our standards. A lot went into the work. Even the carpenters we used said they had never been detailed like that kind of work in their entire career. |

VanuatuWycombe:It is very wrong to swear by the name of God. You can say your points and leave it at that. It's good to build to details and with good quality. Kudos on your builds and the work men who lend their skills in bringing such to completion. |

bixton:Hmm. I didn’t know it’s wrong to swear by the name of God. I thought it was only wrong to swear in vain. Meaning don’t swear if your are not telling the truth. |

Skydivine:In the Old Testament, we were told ...... Lev.19.12 - And you shall not swear by My name falsely, nor shall you profane the name of your God: I am the LORD. But in the New Testament, Jesus Christ made it known to us that it's not acceptable...... Matt.5.34 - But I say to you, do not swear at all ;neither by heaven, for it is God's throne; Matt.5.35 - nor by the earth, for it is His footstool; nor by Jerusalem, for it is the city of the great King. Matt.5.36 - Nor shall you swear by your head, because you cannot make one hair white or black. Matt.5.37 - But let your "Yes' be "Yes,' and your "No,' "No.' .For whatever is more than these is from the evil one. Exod.20.7 - "You shall not take the name of the LORD your God in vain, for the LORD will not hold him guiltless who takes His name in vain. |

bixton:Still, I do not see anywhere in all the Bible verses you cited where it says not to swear by God’s name. From all the verses, it would appear that the Bible is mostly concerned about false testimony, in other words swearing in vain with the name of God. What is vain? This is a disrespectful or irrelevant rendering of Gods name. Usually, it pertains to worthless and false oath. Don’t claim what is not true in God’s name. When you swear with Gods name, it should be declaration of truth, in something you have done or intend to do. Have you considered why elected officials are sworn into office under oath- in the name of the God they worship? I might be wrong but it’s my interpretation of the cited verses. The summary of it all is that we should watch our mouth because that name is sovereign. |
